IPhone / MobileME calendar push

I'm using MobileME on a trial basis - so far i like it alright. i have a Yahoo! and Gmail email accounts both forwarding to my new "me.com" account. in mobileME, i can make a calendar entry on my laptop and my iMac at home and everything pushes up to the 'cloud'. but when i make a calendar entry on my iPhone, it does not automatically push the info out. my iPhone settings for mail/calendar/contacts are as follows:
fetch new data > PUSH (ON)
wondering what the problem is.
only complaint about mobileME is that there is no SPAM control.

You know, it sort of resolved itself.
I changed it from 1 Month to All Events, let it sit for a while, and then switched it back. That seemed to refresh iPhone's memory of what it had and had not synced, because now the push changes are working perfectly between iPhone and MobileMe for all calendars.
(Alternately, it could have been fixed by Invisible iPhone Gnomes. Whichever one sounds better.)

  • IPhone/MobileMe calendars sync mess

    I have the same calendar that is supposed to sync my two computers and iPhone with MobileMe calendar. What happens is that when I make changes to the calendar on my iPhone it does not affect MobileMe. How do I make iPhone calendar sync with MobileMe? Thanks.

    On the iPhone got to:
    Setting-> Mail, Contacts, Calendars->Under Accounts choose your MobileMe account.
    Make sure the slider for Syncing Calendars is switched on.
    If it is then it's the settings on the computer(s). Make sure you are logged into the MobileMe "Dashboard". Windows (under Control Panel). Mac would be System Preferences and MobileMe (make sure to check the Calendar sync).
    Let me know if this helps.

  • IPhone MobileMe account push mail

    Hi,
    I'm having some trouble getting my push mail (.mac address) to work on the IPhone. I know that there have been certain issues with MobileMe and the whole push stuff... are these issues still going on?
    Also deleted mails on the IPhone don't get deleted on the cloud, but I've learnt from the forum that this is a known bug.
    Any help, please?

    You might get a better response if you ask in the dedicated *MobileMe on iPhone and iPod Touch > MobileMe Mail* forum, as that is where people who are using MobileMe are most likely to see posts relating to it.

  • Setting the Mobileme calendar as the default calendar on my iPhone

    Guys, my question is quite simple. I have tried in many ways but I can't manage to set the Mobileme calendar as the default calendar in my iPhone. At the moment, the default is the iPhone calendar, which doesn't sync with my Mobileme account and consequently I have all my appointments only on my iPhone and not in my Macbook Pro or my PC.
    Any advice on the above will be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    I have tried every way i can but can't get the iPhone to display a calendar other than that which is mirrored with MobileMe what i'll do is list what my settings for my phone are and you cansee if these mirror the one's on your iPhone oh and these are pretty much all my MM info so it does include some mail stuff as well

    Are there any differences?

  • Sync iCal - iPhone - Exchange 2007 broken after MobileMe Calendar upgrade

    I need to keep contacts and calendars in sync between my work pc (XP, Outlook 2003, Exchange Server 2010), my home Mac (10.6.6) and my iPhone (3GS, iOS 4.3). Until recently, that worked fine by the following (roundabout) way: PC syncs with Plaxo online via Outlook add-in; Plaxo syncs with Mac; Mac syncs with MobileMe; MobileMe syncs with iPhone. However, the recent upgrade to new MobileMe calendar breaks this workflow, at least for calendar syncing, because Plaxo cannot synchronise with the new CalDAV cloud-hosted calendars. Can anyone suggest another way of getting this to work?
    I thought MobileMe for PC might be a solution, but while it can show MobileMe calendars in Outlook, it can't synchronize them (and it seems not to work with Windows XP). A while back, I tried using Google Calendar as the focal point, but found Google Calendar Sync for Windows created a lot of duplicate items, lost items and general mess.
    PS The office network doesn't run Exchange ActiveSync and does not allow a vpn connection from Mac or iPhone.

    Hi JWilson@ch,
    So I thought I was the only person doing that crazy workflow to get everything synced. I do it exactly the same way.
    I stupidly upgraded to the new MobileMe last year when first invited, and spent the next few days working out how to get it all back and working. I have been happily syncing everything the old way since then.
    My major concern now is that I just received an email from MobileMe today saying I have to upgrade now as they have stopped syncing the old calendar! I haven't checked this yet (I will in a sec), but if I have to upgrade, that means I lose everything that has worked so well since MobileMe started.
    My crappy work Blackberry is useless for mirroring my Outlook calendar, so syncing my work onto the much more user friendly iPhone had been a saviour. Now I have all of my work and personal appointments in the same place, and I never miss anything.
    What to do now? Is there another way to get my PC calendar onto my iPhone, apart from the Exchange Activesync option which my office also doesn't support.
    I'll hold out as long as I can...

  • How not to receive a certain MobileMe calendar on iPhone

    I just updated from version 3.0.1 of the iPhone OS to version 3.1.3, and the handling of subscribed calendars is quite different. My wife authors a calendar on my MobileMe account, but because it is over 1 MB in size, I only subscribed to it on my Mac, not my iPhone. However, since upgrading to 3.1.3, all of my subscribed MobileMe calendars appear on my iPhone, and my iPhone has slowed to a crawl, presumably because of my wife's huge calendar (she doesn't automatically delete old entries).
    Is there some way for me to unsubscribe from this particular MobileMe calendar on my iPhone?

    Hi,
    If you are using structures.. then you need to do the below setting otherwise the result will display Zero Rows...
    1. Select the Structure and go to properties..
    2. Go to Display Tab
    3. Select the check box Apply Zero Row Supression to this Structure...
    otherwise.. the result will diplay zero rows also...

  • MobileMe calendar not showing on iPhone 4 (4.0.1)

    In Calendar on my iPhone 4, my MobileMe calendar is not showing up. It was, up until recently, working fine, but I did a Restore (as a new phone) and when I re-added my MobileMe account, the calendar won't show up at all.
    My mail, contacts, notes, etc, are fine, and if I go into settings it definitely says Calendar is "On". I tried turning it off, choose "Delete from iPhone", then turn it back on, no luck. I tried removing my MobileMe account and re-adding, no luck.
    My other calendars (Subscribition to my g/f's MobileMe calendar, Birthdays, Exchange, etc), are showing fine.
    If I go to: https://www.me.com/calendar/beta/, my MobileMe calendar entries show fine.
    Help!
    Thanks!

  • Remove MobileMe Calendar on iPhone

    Hi
    I've upgraded to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 and have turned my Apple Store ID into my new iCloud account. All my contacts, mail, calendars etc that I previously synced with MobileMe are now syncing perfectly (after some gentle persuasion) in iCloud.
    For some reason though even though i've deleted all traces of MobileMe on my iPhone, there is a MobileMe calendar still hanging around in my phone like a bad smell and it won't let me delete it for some reason.
    any suggestions?

    I also think this is awful, and it means I can never truly delete an entry from my address book.
    Please do feedback to Apple, as I have done about this lack of feature

  • Synching ONE MobileMe calendar with TWO iphones

    I keep reading that it's possible to synch a MobileMe calendar with TWO iphones but cannot find out HOW to do so. I presume that SHARING a calendar is different from SYNCHRONISING a calendar. Sharing a calendar seems to me to be cumbersome in that it involves sending an invitation which then must be specifically dealt with by the recipient. SYNCHRONISING a calendar though presumably means updating a calendar entry automatically. It works with one iphone. How can it be made to work with two iphones? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    my OG iPhone won't sync with my MobileME calendar. Is that because the OG phone can't be updated to ios4?
    And if that's the problem is there any alternative for syncing the OG iPhone's calendar (which is now empty)?

  • MobileMe calendar no longer syncs with iPhone 4.01 - Only Birthday calendar

    Since accepting the new Calendar on MobileMe, I am no longer able to sync the Calendar in the cloud to my iPhone. I've tried everything, even restoring the iPhone. Also, in iTunes, where you select info, under Calendars there is only one now, Calendar, iTunes no longer shows all the calendars that reside in iCal or on MobileMe Calendar.
    I am totally confused, anyone have a solution?
    Thanks. b

    Make sure that the password for the MobileMe account is still entered in on iCal.
    Look in iCal under preferences, accounts, account information

  • MobileMe still pushing out calendars

    Is it me or is MobileMe still pushing Calendars, I have several old calendars listed "On My Mac" and no matter what I do they keep coming back, I delete them in iCal, I can see that the files get taken out of the user/librarycalendar folder  but lo and behold hours later they will be back
    They seem to affect the iCloud as well since on my phone is now two Birthday Calendars I can't get rid of one of them. I even restored my phone as new and it was working perfect for awhile and then boom back with the two birthday calendars

    There is an update, Firefox 16.0.1, so no need to roll back to 15.0.1 as far as I know. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop

  • Sync Exchange & MobileMe Calendars

    A user named Bob utilizes iCal with a MobileMe calendar. That calendar needs to sync to his Exchange calendar that is also setup in iCal, so other users can view Bob's calendar from within Outlook 2011.
    How can this be accomplished? Thanks.

    ok, i decided to just go ahead and sign up for a mobileme account to verify it all.
    the answer is yes, this all works, and quite well.
    you can have both exchange, and mobileme, and have FULL syncing of contacts/calendars/mail with both. both running push a the same time.
    its quite nice, but makes me wonder why apple can't enable the support for exchange calendars/contacts at teh same time as local contacts/calendars from addressbook/ical
    pretty cool overall, basically there's not much of a need to ever dock your iphone (besides music/video syncs)

  • IPhone 3G and Push Email Notifications

    Hello everyone.
    Before I got my iphone, I used to own a blackberry, and push email was my main form of communication on it. I cannot begin to describe how amazing push email was on the blackberry - the moment an email was sent to my address my blackberry picked it up right away, I'd say within 10 seconds. Now, I have an iPhone 3G OS 3.1 with mobileme email set up to use push email. I don't know if i'm the only person experiencing this...but push notification my foot... sometimes I don't even get notified of emails until I open the mail app myself and do a manual check. I have mobile me on my iPhone set to push, I have push in the settings menu set to on... I don't know what else to do.
    I'd be happy to hear of other peoples experiences with MobileMe push mail on the iPhone. My account expires in two weeks...maybe I'd be better switching to push mail with gmail? I might give that a try this evening.
    Regards
    Seb

    Just playing for more hours! Push works lightning fast if you enter anything onto MobileMe, it syncs to Iphone in less than 20 secs, Mail email, contacts and calendar.
    The problem is I am using with Entourage 2008 that supposed to sync with Ical and Address Book, this is either not working or coming through ad hoc or taking hours to Iphone, this is not push email like above.
    MobileMe is fine as a standalone push system back to Iphone, but what about me using Entourage to manage all my mailboxes and data to iphone.

  • Error messages after new MobileMe Calendar upgrade. Solved?

    Quick rundown of what I've been through and how I have solved my problem.
    I have a MacBook running 10.5.6 and I also have Bento 3. Recently Bento (Filemaker) told me that I would have to complete a few steps before upgrading to the new MobileMe calendar. So I followed the steps exactly. (URL: http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7846/~/setting-up-bento-for-th e-new-mobileme-calendar)
    After completing the steps. I proceeded to upgrade to the new calendar. Upgraded in less than a minute and then after opening up iCal on my mac & importing my calendars, thats when things started to go wrong. I kept getting error messages on almost every even I have ever created. I could barely even quit iCal due to all the error messages. Also, many of my events werent there after importing and the progress wheel kept spinning. Complete DISASTER! (*Luckily, I made plenty of backups before doing any of this so I was safe*) But Still I had NO iCal!
    I searched and searched and could not find a complete solution. So what I did was the following and so far I believe it could be the solution to all of you guys's problems.
    I followed these instructions on this website (URL: http://answers.makeitwork.com/how-to-reset-ical-on-your-mac-or-how-to-clean-up-y our-ical/) **I followed these exactly**
    They are below:
    +Export any Calendars you wish to retain after you reset by clicking on the Calendar you wish to retain and go to File > Export… > Export…+
    +Repeat the above process for every Calendar you wish to keep. (Make sure you remember where you saved them)+
    +Quit out of iCal+
    +Go to Finder and click on your Home icon to display the Library folder.+
    +Open that folder+
    +Open the Calendars folder in the subsequent window+
    +Delete all the contents within that folder+
    +NOTE: If you open iCal at this point, it will initially appear that you cleared everything. Within minutes, however, everything will come back.+
    +Go to your Utilities folder and open the Terminal application+
    +Enter the following command: rm -rf ~/Library/{Caches,Caches/Metadata,Preferences,Application\ Support}/iCal+
    +Exit out of Terminal+
    +Open iCal and…Voila! Brand new iCal!+
    But that did not completely work. So before doing this again, I went to my iPhone and quit syncing calendars on my mobile me account. And chose to ERASE every calendar on my iPhone.
    After doing that and repeating the process above, I opened up iCal and boom, it worked. Then after I had the calendars setup the way I wanted on my MacBook, I proceeded to go to Preferences>MobileMe>Sync> and then chose to sync
    I then went to Me.com and checked to see if the calendar was operable and it was 100%. I could do everything like before. Then I went back to my iPhone and just turned Calendar syncing back on in my mobileme preferences.
    This has solved all my problems 100%. Hope this helps someone. Just remember that as long as you created a backup of your Calendar you should be safe.

    Well... seems I didn't have any answer on this. I fiddled a bit more but I have to say that I really came to wits' end at this stage. A couple of observations though:
    * I don't really understand this notion of a keyboard issue. My keyboard and its layout work properly but I will not be able to login regardless of login through GDM, KDM or Slim. Yet it's worth noting that in the case of GDM and SLIM the X server starts; I see the graphical interface, I click, etc. but when I type the trouble starts.
    * I tried to check my xsessions-errors file. The file is really big under a frame buffer, and it wasn't clear to me, but I found strange that the log was reporting all sorts of attempts to start KDE. I don't exactly know what's going on.
    If anybody has any clue, let me know... It's becoming very frustrating.
    Thanks!

  • I can't seem to update icloud's calendar via my iPhone's calendar. Also, iCal on Mac follows iCloud so when I sync iPhone to Mac it becomes a even more confusing situation...

    Pardon my ignorance. I have scoured the forums and no one seem to touch on the exact subject I am talking about.
    I can't seem to update iCloud's calendar via my iPhone's calendar with all connectivity turned on (sync,push,pull,slap whatsoever).
    Also, iCal on Mac follows iCloud (sluggishly and not due to connection problem, so i'd nice to have a status bar telling me whether or not it's active and doing some updating) so when I sync iPhone to Mac it becomes a even more confusing situation...
    Simplified version:
    -Events created on the iphone doesnt get on icloud.
    -When iphone is synced with ical on mac and changes are made on Mac, changes are not immediately reflected on iphone unless clicked "sync"
    -I just want to view a live ical at all times without going to safari and opening up the web iCal. I want to view a 100% live iCal on the native iCal via iPhone. Like google docs! Is that too much to ask!?
    Iphone seemed to have a "push" or "sync in this many minutes" option for iCal, but that seemed like it's only receiving changes, and not send out changes made via phone. Very confusing, very annoying!

    Download iTunes using the tab at the top of this page. Then run the update with iTunes closed.
