I added a calendar event to repeat every two weeks, but it repeats every day.

I've added a calendar event to repeat every two weeks, but it repeats every day. The original event was set up for all Day on Wednesday, Nov 5. Setting up for a single day worked fine. Add the repeat option and select every two weeks...and it shows up every day until the end date. I've re-booted the phone and tried other start dates. Same result. This is in the base iPhone calendar. No other calendars have been installed. iPhone 6 iOS 8.0.2. Any suggestions?

Found a workaround:
Just change each attribute 1 item at a time.
Create the calendar entry for one day only with no other settings.
Go back in and edit it so that its every two weeks, then leave and confirm this worked.
Open calendar back up and add in the end date.
That's the only way I could get it to accept those settings, one attribute at a time.
Misc. bug I suppose. I miss the "It just works" days. Living in silicon valley, the QA engineering buds I have at apple go on rants about the undisclosed/undiscovered but known bugs in ios every time we're having drinks. From what I hear, internally IOS8/8.1 weren't ready for prime time push just yet.

IPhone does not sync Calendar events with iCloud

I have a Calendar which is synced with my iPhone, iCloud and MacBook Air. Calendar events are synced between iCloud and the MacBook, but not between iCloud and iPhone. I tried Reset, but it still does not synce between iCloud and iPhone.

Try force-closing the calendar app on your phone: double-tap the home button, locate Calendar in the list, swipe up on the image above the app icon to close it, tap the home button again. Now reset the phone by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo and release. Test your calendar again. Any change?

Iphone time changes and calendar events get triggered

Iphone 3GS recently updated to IO5 .... Windows PC (vista)...... Every so often, usually about once a day, sometimes twice a day. The correct time that shows jumps forward like 2-3 days with the wrong time. I lose AT&T connection and my calendar events for the next 2-3 days flash on my iphone one right after the other. I hit "close" and the next event flashes up on the screen. I do this for all the events that come up. After all the events are closed, AT&T network is connected again like nothing is wrong. Anyone have or had this issue? Solutions? Thanks.

Nope, and this isn't the first problem I've been having with this phone. For months now I've been unable to use itunes on my computer to sync with my phone because it keeps coming up as not being able to read it and asking me to reset my phone to factory.

How do I remove a group added to calendar in error? Thanks.

In error, I added a new group name to someone else's calendar and it shows up as 'Untitled1'. Is it possible to remove/delete that group and leave it with original group names? Thanks.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== I erroneously clicked on the plus sign at bottom of calendar

Hi James,
Thanks for you speedy reply!! I am not really savvy when it comes to this kind of stuff. My mac is running Mavericks and when I go to my contacts under the "iCloud" I have the name of my contacts list with my contacts and then under that is "smart group" where I have a group name with a list of contacts. I don't want to get rid of the "smart group" I want delete the group I created under "smart group."

Adding a Calendar Event

When I am adding an event to my calendar and I go to enter the time it kicks me out of the calendar and sends me back to the main menu. If I accept the posted time I can go back and edit the time and date with no problem. Anyone else have this problem or am I doing something wrong.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Never mind. I figured out that I was not setting "Home Calendar" at the top of the screen. Do that and everything works fine

Adding iOS Calendar event (ics) with JavaScript

Hi,
I would like to add a VEVENT to the iOS Calendar app. I create the event on the fly and open it with:
//_ics.create() returns an uri-component-encoded icalendar-formatted string which starts with a 'data:text/calendar,'-prefix.
window.open(_ics.create(event));
On Mobile Safari it works as expected. Saved as a web app, i.e. added to the home screen, it doesn't work anymore and produces the message "Download failed...". I've tested it on iOS 7.1.2.
Any ideas why? Isn't the web app essentially a Safari instance without toolbars?
Best
Paul

After restoring my backup to a replacement iPhone, I cannot edit calendar events. Am using iOS5

My iPhone4 died and I had to replace it. Apple told me first to download iOS5 to the new phone then to do a restore. Everything got restored, but I cannot no longer edit any of the events in my calendar regardless of where I created I them. I can still edit them on the MacBook Pro, to which I back up events. I appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Try Settings>iCloud>Calendars>On.

Does iPhone support bysetpos in calendar events?

Hi all, I received an appointment created with Outlook that I can not view properly. The event has the following format:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
SUMMARY:XXXXXXXXXXX
DESCRIPTION:YYYYYYYYYYYY
LOCATION:
CLASS:PUBLIC
PRIORITY:5
SEQUENCE:6
DTSTAMP:20110710T205847Z
TRANSP:OPAQUE
LAST-MODIFIED:20111005T172156Z
RRULE:FREQ=MONTHLY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=21001214T100000Z;BYDAY=TU;BYSETPOS=2
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Madrid:20110510T110000
DTEND;TZID=Europe/Madrid:20110510T120000
EXDATE:20110712T0900
I think that the problem is in the "bysetpos" param of the recurrence rule. Does iPhone support bysetpos param? Is it a limitation of iPhone?
Thanks

I solve my doubt. The problem resides in the "until" param. It seems that iPhone/iPad can't interpret correctly an until param greater than 2069. I admint that this problem is very particular, this case is not common.

Calendar event - how to make it to repeat it self?

Hi,
I was surprised to say that I added a calendar event and I can't make to repeat itself.
For example, I'm using this because I have to take some medicine every day in the morning and I always use reminder for this, to be sure that I take it So it is not a event reminder, which I would like o repeat itself.
I didn't found anything for this setting. Did anyone find such a thing?
Thank you.

Hi,
You are right, I forgot to include the model of my phone. Sorry. It is a Nokia N79.
Unfortunetly I don't have what you suggested
Even my Nokia 6100 had it. It's strange that in the N79 I can't find it
Thanks,

Changing timezones shifts calendar events (N93, E6...

It is commonly accepted that if you arrange a meeting for when you get to New York, you arrange a time for the time zone New York is in, (unless you want to leave your phone at home in England) so why do all the calendar events shift 5 hours automatically when you set your clock to -5 GMT? Has anyone noticed this? Very annoying. I have to ignore the timezone function and simply adjust the clock back a few hours (the phone asks if I have travelled to a different timezone, I have to press NO).

Let me give an example to explain better.
If i've arranged a meeting in New York for 1400hrs (and added a calendar event for 1400hrs) and then fly from UK to New York, I would normally change my phone timezone to the local timezone on arrival, so for example, 1300hrs GMT arriving in New York my timezone would slip back 5 hrs to a local time of 0800hrs.
On opening the phone's calendar, a window then announces that 'time zone changed, calendar entries updated', and hey presto my 1400hrs meeting (and everything else in the calendar) has gone forward 5hrs to 0900hrs.
The event *should* remain at 1400hrs, not to have shifted just because I have changed the time zone of the phone. My Treo never did this, it's quite annoying.

I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere.

Calendar events on iphone won't sync to ical on Mac since iphone 7.0.2 upgrade

Help! Some events - but not every one - entered into new Iphone SW 7.0.2 do not sync back to the Calendar (v 4.0.4 from ILife 2009). I have tried rebooting my systems (computer and phone), as well as re-creating the problem by adding new test events, and I get the same result: calendar additions nor deletions entered from the Iphone do not sync to the computer. I do not have this problem with Iphoto or other apps in 7.0.2.

update to my original post: after searching since for the past 10 days - I did want to pass along to others with an iphone calendar sync problem the following resource:
Mac OS X: Resetting the SyncServices folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
This is the preferred solution for problems with sync with calendar and other apps between iphone and MaciOS. This did solve the problem which developed that no items from iCal were copying to Iphone, such as new calendars I would add, but the original problem has not been fixed by this reset.

How do I get subscribed calendar events to show on my iPhone 4?

I have a subscribed calendar in iCal on my desktop that shows up in the list of iCloud calendars on my iPhone, but none of the events actually show up on my iPhone even though that calendar is selected to show its events. How can I fix this? It's really strange that my phone "sees" the calendar, but won't show the events that are in it! Very frustrating!
I've already tried unsyncing and resyncing all of the calendars on my iPhone (i.e. I turned off iCloud calendar syncing, deleted all calendar info on my iPhone, then turned iCloud calendar syncing back on). No luck.

I had a similar issue. Basically, I gave up trying to "sync" that particular calendar with my iPhone and instead subscribed to the subscribed calendar directly on the iPhone.
To do this, you have to essentially set up a new "account" in the Mail/Contacts/Calendars settings. Go to Add Account > Other, and selecte Add Subscribed Calendar at the bottom. Paste in the URL of the calendar you wish to subscribe to, and it should be added to your calendar. Best part is that it will automatically update as the calendar publisher updates it. Be sure to disable that calendar in iCloud, too btw.

How do I get my iPhone calendar events to show up on my Google calendar?

I have an iPhone 4s. When I add a calendar event on my Google calendar it shows up fine on my iPhone calendar. I can delete that event on my iPhone calendar and it deletes it on my Google calendar so I know there's a "link." BUT, when I add an item on my iPhone calendar it doesn't show up on my Google calendar. I've tried waiting 15 minutes (the refresh time for Fetch) , and refreshing the calendar page but no luck.
Help?

That response would work save one detail: This is my work phone so I get meetings and such added via corporate email, etc. Those go by default to my iPhone calendar so I was hoping there was a way to just sync everything that ends up on my iPhone calendar to my Google calendar.
Thanks for the reply.
