IPhone created events in iCal

When I create new appointments on my iPhone and then sync it with iCal, the appointments all show up in iCal as 1 hour later than I created them on my iPhone!
Please help I've missed several appointments because of this.
Anyone know why this is happening?
My time zone on my iMac and iPhone are both set to USA-Central Time.
Anyone?

I think I just figured it out.
In the iphone, settings, general and then date and time there is a seting for calendar I had to change that time zone event though the time otherwise was correct, and that solved the prob.

Can't open & create event in iCal

I used to be able to open & create an event in iCal. But, the last time I sync'd my iphone & macbook it asked me which event was correct. I clicked on the one on the right and haven't been able to view or create on macbook since (can open & create event on iphone).

What do you see when you click on the Event? Also can you see the photos in the Photo mode? In the Photos mode do you have Event Titles selected in the View menu so they display? That will let you find the event you want and see if you can see the photos there.
Try the basic fix first: close iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and see if that helps.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How to create events in iCal

I know we can create events (like birthdays, anniversary etc.) from address book and sync it with iCal. What i want to know is how do I create an event (b'day, anniversary etc.) for a person who is not in my address book.

Greetings,
Create the event (just like you would any event) and set the repeat to every year and add it to the calendar of your choice:
Hope that helps.

Created events in iCal that synced to iPhone, but events now gone on MBP?

I spent an hour the other night creating a semesters worth of events in my iCal on my 2011 MBP which are now on my iPhone, but have vanished from my computers calendar. I cant get the events back. Any help?

now that im looking at it... basically everything is gone except for holidays on both my iphone and macbook.

ICal erased all my iPhone created events!!

When I synced my iPhone with iCal it deleted all my events from my phone. Everything from my Mac is still there, but anything I had put in by hand on the phone is now gone. any ideas what's going on?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only restore them from a backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

HT2513 Create events in Ical

How to I setup a "repeat" event for work days only. Monday - Friday and NOT include weekend days?

Do you happen to own a Mac? If so, you could create such a repitition on your Mac's calendar, sync it to your iPhone and it would be understood there.
But today, the iPhone's calendar app does not have the ability to create an "every weekday" type of event. The same is true of an event repeating, for example, on the third Thursday of each month.

Anyone else unable to edit gCal events via iCal?

Ok, I can create events in iCal for a gCal and it will update universally across all devices (iMac, iPhone, iPadm, and on gCal). Not having any issues with this part of syncing. All events are present on all devices as well. The issue I seem to be running into is editing those events, specifically the notes section. I like to add in assignments that are due in the Notes section and it seems recently that this is very hit or miss and more on the miss end. As of today, 3/19 I haven't been able to succesfully edit the Notes of any of my current events. Very frustrating to say the least. Any insight into this would be much appreciated.

For the last few weeks, I'd been having problems with my gCal/iCal sync, including editing events in iCal. I gave up and moved everything back to iCal and I am now using iCloud. In my search for an answer, I came across a great read: http://www.busymac.com/download/tco-busycal.pdf
It was written for a third party app but has a lot of good information in it.
Hope that helps,

Calendar event created on iphone not showing in ical.

I have a 4S and when I create a calendar event in ical, it does not show up in my ical ofn my Macbook Pro.
I have check sync calendars in iTunes and have selected to display all calendars in my Macbook's iCal.
Is ther some thing I am overlooking, or a step I may be forgetting?
Thanks

After a trip to the genius bar, I found how to solve this problem, at least for me:
0) Plug in iPhone
1) Start iCal
2) Export all calendars (File -> Export)
3) Quit iCal
4) Delete all calendars from ~/Library/Calendars
5) Start iCal
6) Import all exported calendars
7) Start iTunes, configure syncing to overwrite calendars on phone
8) Sync iPhone

ICal - problem creating events in Exchange calendar

Hi All, this is a weird one to describe, so please bear with me...!
My client is on Snow Leopard at the moment, so does not yet have access to iCloud (upgrading remains an option but he is in no hurry). He is, however, having a confusing time of it using iCal on his Macbook.
He has linked iCal to his corporate Exchange account, and certainly he can view all the events within his iCal. However, when he creates a new event, it does not get created within the Exchange calendar, but rather in his local calendar, and then gets overlaid, visually, on top of the Exchange calendar. Consequently, this created event does not synchronise with his iPhone, because it is only "known about" on his local MacBook. Sorry if this sounds a little confusing, but do you guys see the problem?
Another, minor-ish, point is that the new event he creates locally always gets colour coded in a way that he seems to have no control over. Can anyone explain how the colour coding gets determined when a new event is posted?
To sum up then, he seems only to be able to read events in his Exchange calendar, but cannot add events in a way that they then get synced correctly.

I just barely had this problem. I restarted the program and it worked.

Imported events in iCal not syncing to iPhone

Hello,
I am having trouble getting events on from iCal to appear in my iPhone. I am using iCloud to sync events.
Here is the setup: I have a "work" calendar. I added events to this calendar by exporting them from Outlook and importing them to iCal. All the imported events appear in iCal and in the iCloud web interface. However, when I sync with my iPhone, none of the imported events appear. If I manually create an event in iCal, it appears on the phone and vice versa.
If I turn off iCloud calendars on the phone and sync using iTunes and the USB cable, all the imported events appear normally too. So it's just wireless syncing where somehow the phone doesn't download the events that were imported.
Any suggestions? I've tried turning iCloud off and on, deleting the calendars, and so on.
I'm using iOs 5.1.1 and 10.8.2.

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

I cant create new events in iCal on my Mac or display them

Since a few days ago after upgrading to Lion when I want to create a new event it
dosent show up in my calender. All the old events is shown and when I create an
event for example on my iPhone and sync with iCal on my Mac I can see the
new event.
I click in the calender to make a new event, nothing shows up, but when syncing
with my iPhone I can see the new event without any text because I didnt see the
small eventbar to type in or make the right time for the event. Can anybody help
me with this issue?
Regards,
Collins from Sweden!

Called Apple fast track support and problem is resolved. User error, for some reason I had selected the wrong calendar - after selecting the proper calendar on the left sidebar I could create events. Apparently at some time I created a 'todo' mailbox. It had nothing in it and I ended up deleting it so it doesn't get selected again in error.
Took 15 minutes to connect with an ICAL specialist. Once connected received excellent support.

Unable to create new events in iCal

I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS7, and now when I try to create a new event in iCal, nothing happens. I am able to tap the "+" and enter the event information, but when I tap "Done", no new event appears in the calendar.
If I, instead, create the event in the Calendar on my PC, the phone syncs with Outlook, and the event appears on the phone's iCal app.
Why am I suddenly unable to create new events on my phone in iOS7, and how can I fix this issue?

Thanks! I've noticed the phone has been a bit "clunky" since the update too. Did you experience the same thing & did the hard restart help?

My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

I found this tip from a 2011 discussion on the same topic.
Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
Re-Open the iCal application and Import (File -> Import) a new calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier. Once completed, close the iCal application (you should have all of your calendar entries back.)
Open the iTunes application and connect your Apple iPhone to the computer.
Within the Advanced section of the Info tab for the Apple iPhone, check the box the overwrites/replaces the Calendar data on the Apple iPhone.
Click the Apple/Sync button. New, modified and deleted entries should now be syncing correctly.
That's it! You should be all set and iTunes, iCal and our Apple iPhone should all be playing nicely as friends again. We've used the exact method to repair our own Apple iPhone at least once... maybe even twice.

Rouge alerts on iPhone for events created on Mountain Lion

When I add calendar events in iCal the event shows no alerts, but when syncing the calendar with the iPhone there is an alert for 15 hours before. I can delete this alert off on the iPhone but it is a pain to have the computer show no alerts and then have the iPhone show an alert. If I create the event on the iPhone there is no issue.
Any ideas?? Thanks

i also should've mentioned that my calendars don't show in Mobile Me either. The headings do but for some reason there are no entries visible.
