IPhone cal colors don't jive with iCal cal colors

Hey all,
It would seem that whereas all of my calendars are showing up in the list of Calendars on my iPhone (using 2.0), I can't seem to get the COLORS associated with each calendar to correspond to the colors of my desktop version of iCal.
Eg: I have a "Golf" calendar that is green on my desktop iCal, but the "Golf" calendar designation on my iPhone shows up as orange.
How can I get these colors to correspond? Is this a sync issue? I'm lost here.
Thanks!

You could try as discussed here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1603714&tstart=75 May take you some rounds of syncing and adding in your synced calendars one at a time. I don't have Mobile Me and really wanted my calendar colors to be the same across iCal and iPhone. It took me some experimentation to see what was happening and to get mine to reflect the same colors.
Hope this helps.

  • IPhone 4S reminders don't sync with iCal

    I have a new iPhone 4S and I can't get my reminders to sync from iCal to the iPhone and viceversa. In iCal, i have the right panel open that says "reminders" and they are not showing up in the reminders app on the iPhone. Also, reminders I create on the iPhone don't sync to iCal. I am not using iCloud, I just want to sync the two like I sync my address book, or events, etc. Anyone know what's up?

    Anyone? haha.

  • IPhone Calendar Entries No Longer Sync With iCal or MobileMe Account

    I've been experiencing this for a few months now, and was hoping someone might have some ideas on how to fix this issue I am having.
    Every time I enter a new entry onto my Calendar from my iPhone... those entries do not show up on either my Desktop iCal or Mobile Me account online (this used to work). However... if I enter a new entry on either my desktop or Mobile Me account... those entries do show up on my iPhone.
    I do not sync my Contacts or Calendars using iTunes. That is turned off. I sync through MobileMe.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select your MobileMe account.
    Turn Calendars off for over the air syncing. A warning message will be provided indicating your MobileMe online calendars and calendar events will be deleted from your iPhone with an option to keep the calendars on your iPhone or delete from your iPhone. Select Delete from My iPhone.
    Follow this by turning Calendars back on for over the air syncing.
    Enter a new calendar event on your iPhone to test if the new calendar event shows up with your MobileMe online calendar and with iCal on your Mac.

  • IPhone 3G will no longer sync with iCal?

    I have been trying to sync for a couple of days but it just won't add any of the new appointments I add to the phone?
    It has all the old appointments in iCal but won't sync the new stuff.
    I just did a complete Restore of my phone which has not helped?
    Any idea's?
    thanks
    Using MBP to sync.

    Hey Allan,
    The funny thing is that I don't get that option on my mac in prefs.
    I get it on my windows itunes (which is where I set-up my account and sync most things)
    I use my mac purely to sync with ical for a back-up for my calander and address book.
    Had no problem before a day or so ago?
    thanks!

  • Is anyone able to get their Iphone to send events to sync with ical on a mac and the mobile me calendar?

    I've tried everything in the support docs, reset my sync data, deleted my mobile me account on my iphone, manually "sync'd" from the preferences on my mac, but the mobile me calendar doesnt change and my iphone events do not show up on mobile me or my ical. I sure hope icloud doesnt suck as much as the current situation. my iphone used to sync and it just stopped and apple wants $29 to help.

    Plug yr iPhone to your compu in the old fashioned way with cable.
    Just to cover yourself...select the iPhone in Devices of left pane of iTunes window, then on main pane, select radio button Back up to Computer. Right click on the iPhone in devices, do a backup. It shld then be on your compu'.
    Then, back in main windo, select Info 'tab' from top of the right pane, and tick the Sync iCal events.
    I'm sure this will help.
    If it all goes pear-shape, u have the backup to restore the pre-sync device.

  • My iPhone 4 speakers don't work with music it only works when I get calls

    When I try to play music or videos my iPhone speakers don't work but when I get a phone call it works and I've tried everything to get them to work but no result yet. The first time it happened it was because there was lint in my speakers but I cleaned them out and now that its happened again I can't figure out what's wrong.

    OK, let's try a reset.
    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • Iphone 5 - only one way synchronization with iCal

    Hello community,
    Since I have my new iPhone 5 the calendar synchronization is not working properly anymore which means only one way from iCal to iPhone but not the other direction. I could not found a solution in the diverse support communities so maybe you have an idea what the error might be?
    I am synchronizing locally via iTunes from a Mac Book Pro and I am not using iCloud.
    It would be great if you could help.
    Greetings from Zurich,
    Heike Anna

    This is generally an indication that the synchronization framework on your machine is not handling data changes properly, and must be reset.
    To reset it, launch iSync—that's right: iSync, not iTunes—then…
    • open the Preferences… dialog
    • press the Reset Sync History button
    That will remove the records currently stored in your truth database, and force a first-time, slow synchronization event when you next launch one in iTunes.

  • HT1296 iphone 4s calendar does not sync with ical.

    My calandar entries on both the phone and computer do not sync any longer.  Have changed default calender and turned off icloud, but still nothing.

    Ok,
    I figured it out. It is not a bug after all. Somehow I got duplicate calendars in my iCal from multiple backups, so by deleting the duplicates, the original ones appear. So the items been syncing all along, but I just didn't get to see it, since I was looking at the duplicate calendar.

  • ICal events entered in iPhone don't sync with Mac

    I am suddenly having problems with iCal entries made on my iPhone. They do not seem to sync with my Mac's calendar or on Mobile Me Calendar. I have tried syncing and still nothing. I initially had problems when I switched to the Beta version several months ago, got that fixed but now I'm suddenly finding events I entered on my iPhone not appearing on my Mac's calendar and I'm getting duplicates again, too. Very frustrating. I went to the duplicate calendar fix instructions at Apple but that didn't seem to fix my problem; I can live with duplicates. I can't live with missing events.
    Any suggestions or references to a fix? Thanks/

    I don't know if you have what I've also had, but http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12382141 might help. I have this problem too. It's quite annoying. I have to keep iCal open before it syncs.

  • We have an older IMac (preIcloud) and just purchased a new Macbook Air. Our Iphones are set-up to synch with the IMAC and my calendars on the IMac & the phone look the same. But when I open ICal on the MacBook Air my calendar is missing items? Help..

    Are you wanting to import iCal to the MacBook Air. Since iCloud doesn't work with 10.6 OSX you probably don't have any data in iCloud yet?

  • IPhone Calendar not syncing correctly with iCal since Lion-install

    Since installing Lion, the calendar on my iPhone is not syncing correctly:
    Events created on my iPhone don't show on my Mac
    Events edited on my iPhone don't change on my Mac
    Events that I created in iCal on my Mac, for test-purposes, and then deleted immediately, show up on the iPhone when syncing.
    Syncing through iTunes (not MobileMe).
    Using WeekCal on my iPone, but it seems that the same is the case with the "original" calendar-app.
    No similar experience prior to Lion-install.
    iPhone is iOS 4.3.4 -up to date
    Any ideas? Does anybody know how to reset the sync, for instance?

    Hi, my name is Lucas, i'm an Apple Certified Technitian.
    Last couple of weeks i've installed OSX Lion in a few Macs.
    But one of them drove me crazy!
    I have a Late 2007 White Macbook and i installed OSX Lion last week. I also have an iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) that i also updated to IOS 4.3.5 ... no problems syncing between them
    Then i did the same with a 13'' Unibody MacBook Pro and an iPhone 4 (not unlocked)... no problems neither
    Yesterday i installed Lion on a Mid2010 15" MacBook Pro and updated another iPhone 4 (Factory Unlocked) to IOS 4.3.5 and when i tried to sync the iphone with iTunes 10.4 nothing happened.
    I mean, nothing.. the iTunes started syncing and when it gets to sync the calendars it stayied there forever.
    I left it for hours and nothing.
    As i said i'm an ACT so i tried everything.
    1- Remove Calendars from iPhone and syncing again
    1- Repair Permittions
    2- Reinstall iTunes
    3- Reset iTunes and iCal Preferences and Caches
    4- Backup iCal - erase ical content and generate a new iCal database
    5- Reset Syncing Prefs and logs
    6- Use DiskWarrior from an external OSX
    7- Reset PRAM
    Nothing worked.
    I thought it could be some conflict with Microsoft Outlook and/or Exchange server since this Mac is the only one of the three macs i installed that uses Outlook Sync and Exchange server and it's the only one that gave me trouble.
    But disableing it didn't worked neither.
    THE SOLUTION
    I Already solved this thing out. But i still don't understand the logic of all this... anyway, what y did is this:
    1- turn off microsoft outlook sync with iCal (from outlook preferences)
    2- Backed up iCals (Just in case)
    3- Create a new Calendar Category (by default you have Work and Home... i created one called Test)
    4- i Created a new task at that calendar
    5- In iTunes uncheck the "Sync iCal" box and sync the iPhone
    6- Check th "Sync iCal" box, then check the "sync the selected calendars" box
    7- Check the "Test" calendar and sync the iPhone.
    This worked so i started creating task in this Test Calendar both in iphone and mac, just to test it, Worked fine.
    Then i selected all the other calendars (Home - Work - etc) and i turned on the outlook sync
    Then i synced the iPhone and Voilà everything is working again.
    Now i can create task in outlook calendar and when y sync the iphone it appears on it.
    I don't know what the problem is... but this looks like the solution
    HOpe it works for you!

  • IPhone calendar will not sync with iCal on Mac

    Calendar entries on my iPhone 4S/iOS 5.1 will not sync with iCal on my MacBook Pro 2.4/10.6.8, but it will the other way around. I have tried:
    Restarting iPhone
    Re-setting sync services (holding down Option key and clicking on Sync icon in menu bar)
    Changing which calendar to sync with (iTunes 10.6.1)
    This may have something to do with having to do a complete Time Machine backup after a Volume Optimisation with Tech Tool Pro rendered my startup disk as un-bootable....???
    I do not use Mobile Me or iCloud (can't with Snow Leopard...) and it is a straight USB connection.
    I consider myself a medium expert, with no programming/Terminal skills whatsoever.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Manolis

    Thanks. There is another thread that shares a solution that involves deleting ical Library cache files and Preference files.  I"ll see if that works.  ICloud shouldn't be a factor in my case since I don't use it and it's "off" in Preferences. I am encouraged that I don't need to use it to fix this issue based on other's experiences, but we'll see!

  • Ical on iphone does not sync with ical on mac, but the mac does it!

    My ical on my iphone does not sync with ical on mac using MobileMe, but reverse it works very well.
    so typing an new event in ical on my phone will NOT appear in ical at my computer. Typing a new event on my mac, than within 10 seconds it appears on my phone.
    anybody know how to resolve this? never had the problem before
    problem 2: ical on my iphone seems to duplicate a lot of events. Non of them are duplicated on my computer.
    related problem?
    thank
    Hein

    I have solved my problem - don't know if yours is the same. I noticed on iPhone, when I listed the calendars there are two sections: the top line showed "All Calendars ->"; when I click on that I get duplicate entries for everything.
    Below that is:
    "From My Mac.
    "All from My Mac ->", followed by a list of individual calendars. When I clicked on that I got single entries.
    This led me to realize that in my Settings ->Accounts I had the old "...mac.com" a/c and new "..me.com" a/c. I had thought it didn't matter.
    Once I eliminated the "mac.com" A/c, I had only one set of calendars.
    Hope this helps you.
