IPhone 4 OS 6.0 Sync via iCloud to Computer - Calendar Missing All Calendars Except Repeating Appointments

I have an iPhone 4, ios 6.0 with years of calendars & contacts on it.
Just bought a new macbook pro, OS 10.8.3.
Set up iPhone 4 to sync all calendars and contacts via one icloud account, successfully.
All 8 Calendars all successfully sunk from iPhone 4 into new computer.
Set up iTunes 11.0.2 to sync with my iPhone 4 via cable. Did the sync, all music & playlists from iTunes 11 got onto my iPhone 4.
Now my macbook pro's calendars & contacts are all present and fine, but the iPhone only displays calendar items which are my repeating appointments (my exercize calendar).
Yet, in my iPhone 4, all calendars are checked off to show. (please see pic), but they don't show.
Any advice on how to get all my calendars to show on my iPhone like they do on my macbook pro? It appears the macbook calendar has kept ALL my appointments, and the iPhone 4 has only kept and displayed my weekly repeating exercize appointments.

Turned out - after about 30minutes at the genius bar, the guy figured it out.
Within the iphone itself, in the General > Calendar preferences, it said 'sync only last 2 months' or something like that. So even though the iphone had all calendars selected to show, it deceptively didn't show any of my previous non-repeating appointments, only the repeating ones.
This explains why iCloud had all my information + repeating appointments, yet the iPhone only had 2 months of appointments + my forever going back repeating appointments.
iPhone calendar software a little odd to not have 'sync all calendar items' checked off as a default, instead it has 'sync only last 2 months' checked off as a default.

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

HT4597 Can I just choose which apps or photos to sync via iCloud since I don't want all of them in all my devices? I have all photos & apps in my iMac but only sync manually some of them to my iPad and to my iPhone. Can I still do this with iCloud?

I have 3 Apple devices - iMac, iPhone, and iPad. I am planning to move to iCloud from MobileMe. In iTunes, I just choose to sync whatever files I want my iPhone and iPad to have since they don't have sufficient disk space as my iMac.

Calendars, emails, contacts, are fine since files are small. What I'm afraid of are the apps and photos.
Any reply will be appreciated.
Thanks.

With the exception of photo stream, iCloud doesn't sync your apps or photos between devices. You will continue to sync this content via iTunes in the same way as you do now.
Photo stream allows you to sync your most recent photos between all devices, you have the option to use photostream or not.

I have imported contacts from Outlook to Mail and they have synced via iCloud to my iPhone 3GS. I can't get my iPhone to make a call using these contacts but if I dial the number of any of the contacts on the keypad, the call DOES work! Help me please!?

Macbook pro calendar not syncing (via iCloud) with iPhone 4s

After looking through a few discussions I see some users having issues in syncing their calendars (from their computer) on to their iphone.
I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and this seems to be the key issue.
I was showed from an Apple genius that when syncing via icloud (and to avoid duplicate calendar entries) is to uncheck sync, contacts and calendars.
Which I have and I do have icloud "ON" in my phone. But whenever I update my calendar entries on my Apple laptop it no longer syncs to the iphone.
Would anyone have any leads as to why it's no longer syncing? I'm pretty good at troubleshooting but I'm at a loss with this one.
thanks in advance Aimee

I'm not sure where your problems lies, see if the supported document helps below:
iCloud: Manually importing data from Calendar or iCal to iCloud Calendar
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
iCloud: Limits for Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, and Bookmarks
iCloud: Calendar Events, Reminders, To Dos, and Tasks behavior differs by application

Events sync via iCloud from iPhone to iPad but not vice versa.

I just purchased an iPad 3 and have an iPhone 4s. In calendar, I can enter a date event on my phone and it will sync to the calendar on my iPad, however, if I enter a date event in calendar on iPad, it does not sync via iCloud to my iPhone. I have checked and made sure all of my stuff in settings is syncing via the cloud. Just cannot figure this out. I also made sure that the cloud is linked to same account only on both devices. Any help is appreciated.

I assume you are syncing cal's through iTunes. While I am not sure how to solve your problem, I'd recommend using Google Exchange to sync your contacts. It works in real time and uses your gmail credentials to do so.

Apps no longer syncing via iCloud

I run a time-keeping app (Tyme) on my iMac and Macbook, and have always been able to keep the app data synchronised between both devices through iCloud. All of a sudden yesterday the sync stopped working (it now just hangs on the Macbook). The Tyme folder does not appear in iCloud Drive on the web either (even though on both devices I have the app ticked under iCloud Drive settings). The only thing I can think of that might have changed is that I restarted my iMac a couple of days ago, which will have installed any operating system updates that were pending.
Can anyone help?

You shouldn't be syncing using both iCloud and iTunes, check your settings you may not be syncing via iCloud (system preferences > iCloud on the mac and settings > iCloud on the phone)

I have my contacts synced with icloud and exchange. I want all of them to be synced via icloud, I have tried turning contacts off and then clicking merge but that doesn't copy all of them over. How do I transfer all contacts onto my phone and then icloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you can't do this on a computer, which would be much easier using drag and drop, then you will need to share the contacts with yourself in order to move them to the iCloud account.

I did a complete settings reset on my iphone 4s and I've synced it to my computer 2 or 3 times now but no matter what I do it doesn't fully download any of my apps even after I unplug it. What should I do?

I have an Iphone 5S and used to sync it to my computer in the past without any problem, but now I can't and appears the message "usb device not recognized", and the cable is good and so the USB port. Do you have any idea what's the problem?

Try leaving it plugged in and then restart the computer.

Have you synced again since this happened? (If not, don't.)

I no longer have access to the computer to which my iPod touch is synced. Can I de-sync it without accessing said computer and set up a sync with my new computer without losing all my purchases?

You can transfer Itunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You can transfer other stuff with the info provided in this previous discussion:

Once you get the stuff in the iTunes library of you new computer let iTunes erase your iPod and replace its contents with what is now in your iTunes library.

I recently received an I Pod touch 4th generation. I synced it to my computer and now all my pictures that I have ever taken are now on my Ipod. How do I delete pictures that are not taken by the Ipod but were synced onto the ipod?

Hi megan21,
Connect your iPod to iTunes, click on your device, and then click on the "Photos" page. If you don't want any photos on your iPod, make sure the "Sync photos from [photo application]" checkbox is unchecked. Or, you could select specific photos in that page to sync to your iPod.
Hope this helps,
O.C.
