IPhone 5 Calendar Issue: January 1, 1995

I flew from the Eastern Time Zone into Central Time Zone, which is my home time zone, this afternoon, and tonight my iPhone 5 is telling me the date is January 1, 1995. Can anyone help explain why this is happening, and/or how to fix it? It sometimes switches back to the correct date, but only for a minute or less. I have restarted my phone twice and it has not worked, even when I kept my phone off for over an hour. When the date is January 1st, 1995, I cannot send texts, or go onto the internet, or use any apps using data. PLEASE HELP!!
Much thanks

Iphone 5 calendar issue

Iphone 5 calendar won't display the final day of an event that covers more than one day. E.g. An event beginning on the 25th July at 8am and set to finish on the 30th at 10pm, ordinary calendar would only show dots for the 25th to the 29th. In the text box beneath it intermittently shows that there is actually something happening on the 30th without the dot.

Also happens with my fathers iPhone 4S, I assume it's an IOS issue in that case.

HT203521 iPhone 6+ calendar issue - the dates that have events are "flashing" on and off. How can I get it to stop?

On my Calendar - any dates that has an event 'dot' it flashes/blinks. Any idea why? It is like it is trying to show that it is updating but it has been doing it for a week now. I have it set to show all Calendars (iCloud and Hotmail).

This is Relate to the CALDAV service of Hotmail changing to Outlook and updating their CalDav Services witch may Lag sometimes and cause the error you are having, for you to solve this
Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Accounts Outlook, Disable the Calendar service Hard Reset the iPhone and enable it again that should fix the issue
Provide a feedback if this solved the issue

HT1386 iPhone Syncing Calendar issues...

Hi All,
I've had a recent problem in that my iPhone 4S seemingly 'lost' a load of my Calendar entries. I checked that all the Calendars where being synced by selecting 'All calendars' and this was okay, but when i tried to Sync with iTunes, I got a message saying I'd delete over 800 entries on the Computer (the 'over 25% of entries being changed' warning) if I continued, so I 'cancelled sync' of the Calendar entries...
I next followed the support page recommendation, and on iTunes>(Device)>info>advanced, clicked on the 'Replace information on this iPhone - Calendar' box. Next Sync, all entries reappeared, but whenever I've tried to Sync since it tells me that if I proceed , I will 'MODIFY' over 350 entries on the computer - something I'm a little weary of doing! Is there any advice anyone can give as to where I've gone wrong / if I should just proceed, etc?
I'm running Windows 7, and the iTunes is up to date, as is the iOS on the iPhone 4S...
Thanks very much in advance for any help!
Kindest regards,
Mark

I have this same issue: When I add an event on my iphone, it does not show up on icloud.com - it worked fine in the past and I haven't changed any settings. I verified the icloud calendar settings on the phone (default calendar etc..) - I tried to turn calendar icloud sync off and then back on but to no avail. help.

You need the correct type of calendar account to use invitations.

IPhone/Exchange Calendar issue

I have an original iPhone connecting to an exchange 2003 server. E-mail is working correctly but the calendar sync is pushing new events. If an event is created on the iPhone it will push to outlook (2007) however if an event is created in outlook it does not push to the iPhone. Also, if there is an event deleted in outlook it will push delete on the iPhone. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you!

I was having the same problem and managed to fix this by going into the settings on the iphone, mail/contacts/calendars, the exchange account, and turned OFF the Calendar switch and then back on... I went straight to the calendar and all was gone on the iphone and minutes later all was there and all was now working both ways...
Give it a go.

Calendar issue with the new iphone 6 plus

I'm wondering if anyone is experiencing a problem with the default iphone calendar for iphone 6 plus? I have consulted with apple's tech specialist both in store and online and they can't seem to figure out what's wrong. They have apparently forwarded the issue to the engineers. As everyone may know, dots appear under the date if you have added an event to the specific calendar date then the elaboration of the specific event appears on the bottom linear view. What i have been experiencing on my iphone 6 plus is that the dots disappear as i scroll further and further down to future months and when i do scroll back up the dots also randomly disappears with past months/events. The elaborated event in the linear view is still there, however, when u highlight the date. Why is that? We've already rebooted my phone, checked all possible settings issue, unsync then resynced it to icloud, resigned to icloud, reset all settings and even changed to a new phone (thinking it was a hardware defect) but the dots were still disappearing even with the new device. I even turned off icloud on all my devices and just used the usb cord to sync it from imac to iphone! This nightmare is still happening even without icloud! However, it doesn't do that to my iphone 5! All dots with corresponding events appear on all weeks/months on my iphone 5 calendar.
Hopefully, someone is experiencing the same issue with their default calendar on the new iphone 6 plus. I tried my best to describe the issue, so i hope this made sense.

M glad I'm not the only one experiencing this! Because when i spoke to apple techs it sounded like mine was an isolated case as they have not heard any complaints about this! I'll post something on this thread once apple techs have figured it out and get back to me! They initially put my icloud account on troubleshooting mode so they can look into it, however, it wasn't an icloud issue....so, they have yet to firgure it out! I have already sent them screenshots of what my calendar was doing to my phone.

IPhone 4 Calendar Entries: List Display Issue

I believe a derivation of this issue has been posted a handful of times already, but I wanted to add to the pile in the hopes that Apple addresses a calendar bug. My iPhone 4 is running OS 4.2.1, and I sync my calendar with Microsoft Outlook 2007 via a PC.
Recently I've noticed that when changing time zones, the "List" view of my iPhone calendar has trouble displaying the proper date of appointments when they are entered or changed in the iPhone directly. Two "Tue Nov 30 2010" gray bars will suddenly appear, for example, and previously entered appointments for that date will scatter amongst these two sections haphazardly.
Interestingly enough, when clicking into "Day" or "Month," these entered appointments will display properly. It appears, then, that this issue is only present in the "List" view.
Somewhat bizarrely, these sections in the "List" view will compress back into one (as normal) when the offending appointment is deleted on the iPhone. Moreover, when new appointments are entered via Outlook and synced with the iPhone, the calendar displays as normal in "List" view.
This issue has plagued my phone for a handful of months now when I transition time zones, but only recently has it not reset itself upon syncing with my computer. This leads me to believe that the issue may have been exacerbated by OS 4.2.1. For what it's worth, time zone support is "off" on my phone (meaning appointments display in local time).
Any help you can provide with this issue is appreciated.

Good to hear that I am not alone.
I have the same problem (for some time now, not just 4.2.1). I have tried deleting my calendar and resynching with Exchange with a reboot in between (as suggested in another problem report), but that does not help.
For me the problem started when I started bidirectional synching with Exchange (updates on iPhone are sent to server and updates on server are sent to iPhone, immediately in both directions) -- as if the iPhone calendar list search does not work well because the entries are "remote" (actually stored on Exchange server?).
There are similar quirks with Contacts but Calendar List Search is unusable!

Time zone issue when copying Outlook/Mac invitation to iCal or adding it via iPhone/iPad calendar

Hello everyone,
I'm facing a situation when every time I receive an invitation comes from a different time zone neither iCal, iPhone’s Calendar nor iPad’s Calendar recognizes it correclty.
Below there are a couple of examples, but before, a few information about my environment: Mac OS X Lion with Outlook for Mac (non-exchange user), I’m using iCloud, and my iPhone and iPad are running iOS5. And BTW, I’m not intending to sync anything with Outlook… I know it does not support iCloud syncing, I just trying to live without that.
First example.
I got an invitation to a meeting on Monday 5pm-6pm CET, but I’m in GMT-2. It should appear to me as an event to occur on Monday2pm-3pm (GMT-2). In fact only Outlook shows the right time, however when I dragged and dropped that appointment from Outlook’s calendar to iCal it was copied but is did not consider the time zone, that means in the iCal, the appointment was set to occur from 5pm-6pm (GMT-2), instead of 2pm-3pm (GMT-2).
Second example.
I created an appointment in Outlook by myself, jsut to check if that would be something related to the senders’ computer (Outlook/Windows user), then I set that meeting to occur on Friday 5pm-6pm (UTC+1) and I sent an invitation to a friend of mine (Outlook/Mac User). In my Outlook the appointment was created correctly, that means, on Friday 2pm-3pm (GMT-2), however, when I copied that meeting to iCal it did not consider the time zone, appearing to be Friday 5pm-6pm (GMT-2), and when my friend opened the invitation in his iPhone, which is also set as GMT-2, that also appeared to him as a meeting on Friday 5pm-6pm (GMT-2).
I also checked all possible time zones configurations, in the iPhone, iPad, iCloud and in my MacBook (iCal and Outlook)…all time zones are enabled and configured as GMT-2.
As an last shoot, I decided to download a third-party software, which is integrated with iCal and iCloud, in order to check if that could be an Apple’s issue. I downloaded and installed the BusyCal (from BusyMac). And guess what?! When I dragged & dropped the same meetings I described above from Outlook to BusyCal, it worked perfectly!! And BusyCal sent the proper information to iCal and my iPhone/iPad over iCloud. Which means: #1 there would be no issue with my configurations, and #2 BusyCal does really takes into consideration time zones, which is something that Apple’s calendars looks like do not.
It will not solve the issue I'm having with my mobile devices, but at least is a workaround… BTW, an expensive workaround, because BusyCal costs $49, by now I’m using the 30 days trial version.
So friends, is there anyone who could help to find a real solution J , or at least, a free workaround L
Thank you in advance and I apologize for this “article”.
PS: I've been using Mac for 4 years now, and this is the first time I was stucked ina situation like that... and I don't know who to blame... Microsoft or Apple? This I know... syncing Apple's calendars with Microsoft's calendars, should be effortless... and it is always a pain in... that place...

I am having a similar problem: invitations sent (presumably from outlook), when accepted from my iPad, appear in the calendar with the wrong time zone.
this actually happens even when the meeting is in the same time zone I'm in: I am in GMT -5, and even when the meeting is in GMT-5, it defaults to GMT (or, in some instances, PST). My settings have my time zone set correctly.
Any help much appreciated.

Syncing the iPhone's calendar with my iCal. (Different of the other issues)

I tried many different things and I couldn’t sync my iPhone’s calendar in my mac. I don’t know what’s going on.. It was supposed to be easy...
Someone told me to reset the sync history and try this steps (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2481), but it still not working! I need the iPhone's calendar information on my iCal. That's the most important thing now..
Any suggestions on how to resolve? Tks!

If calendar events are not syncing from the iPhone to iCal on your mac, try Resetting the Sync History as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23030
Then enable calendar syncing in iTunes and choose the Merge option on the initial sync.

Outlook Sync (Contacts/Calendar) Issues - Progress today........

Folks,
I posted another earlier discussion on this topic over the weekend, but since I got my iPhone on Friday, I have probably burned about 20 hours working trying to figure out why I cannot sync my calendar and contacts from Office 2003 "OR" 2007 into my iPhone. When I started this process, 584 of my 1310 contacts did sync, I had NO luck on getting any of calendar items to sync.
Today we resolved the Contact issue!!! Still working on the calendar issues and if anyone has any further ideas, I am open to it, but it appears for both the contacts and calendar issues, I had corrupt data. You dont know it until encounter it this way.
Here is what you need to do in order to get the contacts to sync, it worked for me, hopefully it will work for many after me:
1. Export "ALL" of your contacts to a .CSV (Comma Separated Value for Windows) file. Just export them to your desktop or somewhere easy to find them. As an extra safety net to ensure you dont lose your contacts, back them up also to a .XLS file as well as a .PST file.
2. Delete "ALL" your contacts out of Outlook. Sync Outlook, especially if your like me and have your contacts and calendar on a corporate exchange server. Be sure you clear your iPhone so there is no contacts on it.
3. Import the .CSV file to a VCARD file, sync to your coporate server, sync your iTunes and you should now see all your contacts.
Again, it worked for me and hopefully it works for you.
Good Luck!!

Everyone is waiting for this.
Right now you cannot sync locally between your phone and your desktop. You are forced to upload your contacts to another company's server (read "the cloud") and then download them from whatever device you didn't upload them from.
Still waiting for this fix please.

IPhone 3GS calendar is no longer syncing with iCal

iPhone 3GS calendar is no longer syncing with iCal since upgrade to Lion. No issues prior to upgrade. Ideas?

I am having the same problem. I have snow leopard and since I upgraded to itune 5.0, I have had nothing but problems. In icloud, all of my events quadrupled which then caused all my ical events to do the same on my computer and phone. What a nightmare! The apple support guy had never seen anything like it! I have since cleaned up my calendar on both my phone and macbook, but now any event I add to my phone does not show up during sync. I noticed that when I go into mail, contacts, calendars and then go into my gmail account, the calendar button is set to off. If i try to switch it on, I get a message asking what I would like to do with the local calendars on my phone. I am afraid to do anything so I just cancel! Any thoughts? The calendar on my computer is current so I could always over write my phone during a sync--but still unsure. Thanks

Any way start over from scratch to fix iCloud calendar issues in Outlook 2010?

I'm suddenly having perplexing iCloud calendar issues in Outlook. Forget the hundreds and hundreds of duplicate entries for birthdays and holidays, and the thousands of duplicate contacts - I've just been manually deleting them from Outlook. I also tried manually deleted iCloud files from iCloud on outlook, but this does not seem to affect what is on iCloud itself. I've now got an issue where if I add an appointment on my iPhone, it appears on Icloud but not in Outlook 2010 even though the iPhone calendar is displayed in Outlook. iPad appointments show up on iPhone, iCloud and Outlook. iCloud entered appointments show up on iPhone, and iPad and Outlook. Of course it is maddening that there is a separate calendar for each (there is only one of me, so why a separate calendar in Outlook for every source is beyond me). How can I get my iPhone to start showing up again in Outlook? Another issue is that now every time I click on calendar in Outlook, it takes 2-3 minutes to display the calendar because iCloud seems to be syncing. I'm assuming this is because there a so many duplicates. I've removed Icloud from Outlook. Ran a repair on Outlook. Uninstalled iCloud. Reinstalled. Re-added to outlook., but the issue is never fixed. I'm considering make a brand new Apple ID and abandoning my current one, but that means I have to change my iPad, iCloud, iPhone, family iPhones, Outlook, readd credit card, reload all of the data. That's a pain. I sure would be nice to have a simple way of editing the iCloud data and adding devices (and having a more descriptive source name would be even better).

I found sync options under "info"
I was looking to sync the information from the phone back into outlook, It looks like these options will sync what is on outlook into the phone..
I wanted to export from the phone (which has all of the old appointments and updated contacts) , back into outlook
Any other thoughts?
Thanks
