IPhone calendar problems after syncing

I know I must have done something wrong - I finally synced my iPhone to my iCal on my MacBook and now I can't go back into my iPhone calendar and delete or edit any existing appointments on my iPhone. What gives? Is there a quick fix to this? I am new to this whole experience so be easy on me...

I also use Outlook, iPhone4, windows XP on my PC......everything EXCEPT my notes syncs.
When I plug in my iPhone, and go to the info tab, notes is clicked to sync but it won't.
Any ideas?
After reading a few others post on the same subject, what worked for them was rebooting your PC or Mac, doing a RESET on your iPhone and try again. You may wish to add a new note to both the computer and iPhone before syncing and see if that helps.

HT1296 red dot events in iphone calendar do not sync to outlook, only blue dot events

In first calendar sync with outlook after setting up iCloud account, there are numerous double entries for events on iPhone calendar, one with red dot and the other with blue dot. Also, some of red dot events on iPhone calendar do not sync to Outlook. How do I fix this?

IPhone Calendar Changes not Syncing with ICal

Additions and changes to my iPhone calendar are not synced with ICal on my Mac. Syncing the other direction (adding or changing appointments on my Mac) works, but nothing I change or add on my iPhone appears on my Mac (the same seems to be true of contacts and notes). I have the same problem with an iPod touch.
Has anyone else experienced (and fixed) a similar problem? As it ism the iPhone-Mac sync only works in one direction!

I had the same problem, and then all my calendars stopped syncing either way. They picked a beautiful time to do it, too... right as I was leaving on a business/pleasure vacation where I was making on the fly appointments. grumble
However, I fixed it tonight. Here is what I did.
1. Back up (export) all your iCal calendars. (not just good practice, you'll need them later) Make sure iCal is closed.
2. under ~/Library/Application Support/iCal delete everything.
3. under ~/Library/Calendars delete everything
4. Sync your phone.
At this point you should have your phone overwriting everything in iCal. If your problem is ONLY syncing from phone to iCal you should be good to go, if you can't sync either way, you'll need to:
5. Drag all your backed up calendars back to iCal. In theory they will sort themselves out, but you might have some duplicates between stuff you've created on your phone and in iCal.
I don't know if this will keep the problem from occurring again, but at the very least, I was able to test out my ability to create events on either side, and it works.
I kept hoping that the last iPhone update would solve this for me, alas!

HT1386 Change of order in playlists. Problems after sync

I have my ipod classic for many years, but recently encountered problems after sync. Itunes changes the order of tracks in my playlists. I want them be ordered by album, but itunes ordered it by "ticked". I tried to change it before sync. First this seem to be work, but now the order is again wrong. I find this really annoying, because "ticked" seemed to mean to be similar to "by name" of tracks. This does not make any sense for my music.
Any ideas, what I can do?

This is the iPod touch forum.

IPhone Calendar Didn't Sync

Does anyone know how to get the iPhone calendar (iCal) to Sync back into the iPhone. I have the original 8 gig phone from June 07, just upgraded the .me account but it only brought in other calendars and not the real one from the iPhone that I had backed up on the G4. Its strange. It should sync all 3 calendars. Is this something I need to wait for ?

For what is backed up to iCloud see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4859
If your Mac is new enough to use iCloud, it is new enough to use Pages '09

Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update. Mostly it is with use of the keyboard. Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling. Apparently many others have had various problems. The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled. I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
Sure would appreciate help! Thank you!

settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
also turn off automatic app updated...

HT1296 When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer

When i sync calendars, the info i typed in my iphone calendar does not sync to my computer? Info from my ical from the computer does sync to my iphone...Am i missing something?

Thanks for the reply but when I do this my default calendar options are 'From My Mac' or 'iCloud'. If I try to select a calendar I can only select one of them. So, if I select Calendar I can only get a check mark beside one feature, calendar, home, or work. I am stumped. I can add events on the Mac and then will sync to the phone but not the other way. That sounds like settings to me but I have toggled everything I can think of.

I recommend reaching out to Citrix via their support system -

The receiver app has a specific list of servers it's compatible with, if the server is not on the list the app won't work in OS X.

Putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac

putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac. It did when I first bought iPhone, how can I sync automatically?

Could be a bunch of reasons. Do you have icloud setup on both devices? Can you give us more details of your setup? Make sure you have the calendar set to sync in the icloud system settings. Also make sure you are set to sync said calendar. I was checking my settings and realized that you may or may not be using icloud for calendaring. On your phone in settings/mail, contacts, calendars/ you have the ability to select what and which calendars you want to sync. Make sure it is configured appropriately.

HT203216 iPhone will not update with new outlook calendar events after sync

iPhone 4S will no longer update with new outlook calendar events after sync

another user had the fix:
FIXED IT! After a painful and time-consuming couple of months.
I found the solution on another help forum, and in a nutshell it is this:
I had set up some Outlook appointments with a reminder set at "0" minutes i.e. to remind me at the time of the event.
On the iPhone there isn't an option for "0" minutes - instead it says 'at the time of the event' (or something similar)
When the iphone tried to sync the Outlook items it didn't know what to do, and after several minutes of 'deliberating' (which looked like a very long calendar sync in iTunes) it then just aborted the process without syncing anything on Calendar.
So I went into calendar list view, and changed any appointment with a reminder set to "0" minutes, and bingo, it all started working again.
Try it! I hope it works for others too.. (repost of solution provided by Silvermum)

Two problems: iPhone Calendar is not sync w/ MacBookPro. Not receiving iCloud mail on Mac but am receiving it on iPhone.

How can I get the iPhone calendar to sync with MacBook Pro both when it is plugged into Mac and through the cloud?
What would cause the MacBook Pro to not be able to retrieve mobileme mail when it still retrieves the comcast mail? Can you help me get my mobileme email back on the MacBook Pro?

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!

IPhone calendar entries not synced with MacBook calendar

I use my iPhone 4S calendar as my primary calendar for entering or modifying events for the simple reason that it's with me most, if not all the time.
But after upgrading my MacBook Air to Mountain Lion last week, calendar entries entered or modified on my iPhone no longer synchronize with the calendar on my MacBook Air. As such, I have to manually make the entries or modifications on my MacBook Air so that the calendar will be updated when I synchronize it with my iPad. Am not using iCloud, so the calendar on my MacBook is a local calendar (On My Mac).
Any thoughts on why this is happening and what can I do to fix this?

I have noticed a problem recently, although I can't absolutely be sure it's related to Mountain Lion on the computer. Perhaps iCloud (which I set up, but am not really using yet).
My specific issue is that if I go into Calendar (formerly iCal) on the mac, and edit an already existing calendar event -- change the time, or move it to another day -- the change doesn't always sync through to the iphone properly.
Example: I had a recurring weekly event for 7:pm on a specific day of the week. The start time got pushed back to 7:30. I changed it on the mac, and sync'd to the phone. However, the change did not get applied to the iphone calendar. If I edit it on the iphone itself, it will sync back the other way correctly.
Same sort of problem occurs if I move an event from one day to another on the mac. I will wind up with it showing up on BOTH days on the iphone. If I delete an item, same thing.
It acts like the iphone versions of calendar entries are write-protected in a way. If I edit them on the phone, the changes stick and sync properly to the mac. If I try to do it the other way around, they do not.

I can't get my iPhone 3GS to sync calendars with either iCal or Outlook. Everything I entered into my iPhone calendar is GONE. The data I previously entered into and synced from my iPhone is still in my Outlook calendar, which used to sync seamlessly, but I can't get iCal to import the Outlook calendar, either (my assumption being that the iPhone would be more apt to sync to an Apple device more than a Microsoft application). The only calendar events that sync from my Mac Pro to my iPhone are the few that are in iCal. Office 2011 for Mac just had a big update, too - I wonder if there are multiple culprits here.

How can I ensure my iPhone calendar is in sync with my Google calendar?

I sync my office Lotus notes desktop calendar with Google calendar and generally the two are in sync.
However I find my calendar on the iPhone which I sync with the Google calendar through Exchange (along with mail and contacts) is simply out of sync a lot of the time with old entries duplicates etc.
Is there a way of forcing the iPhone calendar to duplicate the entries in the Google calendar and lose the wrong entries or some other way of entirely purging the iPhone calendar. I have made sure I am only looking at the Google calendar.
Would it be better to open the account as a Gmail account rather than an Exchange one?

Exchange is the right way to do this.
Have you looked at your Google calendar on-line (web based)? I suspect the problem is actually between Lotus Notes and Google. I've never had issues syncing my calendar with Google.
If the calendar looks good on-line, try going into account settings and turning off calendar sync for that account. Go into your calendar to verify the entries are gone, then go back and turn it on.
Are you syncing with any other calendars from any other source? For example, you sync Notes at work with Google. If you sync Outlook at home with Google, and you sync your iPhone over the air with Google, and you ALSO sync your iPhone via USB with Outlook at home, you're potentially going to create and/or see a big mess.

IPhone calendar freezes after it opens

Lately the calendar on my iPhone freezes right after I open it. Sometimes it lets me touch the screen once, and then it freezes. The only thing I can do after this is press the home button quickly a few times and it takes me to my favorites. If that doesn't work I turn off the phone. I have version 1.1.4 of the software and have never cracked the phone.
ANY IDEAS?

Standard troubleshooting steps in order for such a problem are; power the iPhone off and on, Reset by pressing and holding the Home button and Sleep/Wake button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release (ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so), Restore.
