IPhone only syncs my primary Google calendar

My iPhone only seems to be syncing my primary google calendar but not the other ones I've created. Any suggestions? I tried using google sync and the exchange server but the issue persisted.

If you want to sync calendar events over the air with your Google calendar and when creating a new event on the iPhone it will be created and synced with your Google calendar automatically, you need to select your Google calendar as your default calendar, not your iCloud account calendar.

How to use iPhone to sync Outlook with Google calendar?

This is a bit of a convoluted question, but I think there may be an answer using the iPhone as a go between. Here is the issue, I cannot get my google calendar and my Outlook calendar to sync with each other. I'm using Outlook 2011 on a macbook pro which is using 10.6.8. The macbook does not have iCloud services on it. I am also using an iPhone 5 which of course does have iCloud.
Before recently switching to an iPhone, I always used a Blackberry. I was able to get my google calendar events to appear in my Outlook calendar when I connected the Blackberry to my mac with a cord and selected "sync" in the Blackberry desktop manager. There were some issues with duplicate events on my BB calendar, but I could deal with that. For that set up, I had turned everything on to sync with as much as possible, including iCal.
Here is my current question. Now that I am using the iPhone, is there a way to make google calendar and Outlook calendar sync with each other? I would think this is possible, because my iPhone and my iCal have all the events from both calendars. Google is syncing with my iCal, and Outlook is syncing with my iCal. So, shouldn't the sync work in reverse as well? Does the iCal only receive events from these two sources but not also "export" events to these calendars as well?
And, is there a fix using either the iPhone or iCal to make both calendars appear in both places, as they do in my iCal and my iPhone?
Thank you!

In order to be able to order from the U.S. Online Store you need to have a U.S. credit card and the device has to be shipped to a U.S. address.

I got the iPhone 4S and I use google calendar and when the Sprint salesperson set up my phone only 2 months of my calendar went on my phone. How do I get my whole calendar to sync on my phone?

Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendar - there's a setting for how far back to sync calendars.

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.

My iphone only sync's SOME of my ical events from my macbook. I only have 1 calendar. Am I doing something wrong? I'm not using the cloud.

With the exception of photo stream, iCloud doesn't sync your apps or photos between devices. You will continue to sync this content via iTunes in the same way as you do now.
Photo stream allows you to sync your most recent photos between all devices, you have the option to use photostream or not.

Existing iCal calenders syncing with new Google Calendar/iCal account

I have been using iCal now for awhile but only recently started using Google Calendars (once I found out they could both be synced together). Anyway, I understand how to set up the sync, it's very simple. But, I have three calendars for personal, school, and work already in iCal that are in the default group profile that iCal starts with of "calendars".
Anyway, when you create a new account in iCal to set up the syncing, it creates a whole new calendar group for your profile. I had never had an "account" before, so all my three main calendars are separate from this new account. Is there anyway to move or duplicate those calendars into my new calendar group so that I can have one flowing set of synced information between google and iCal without manually retyping all of the information myself? I have tried dragging the calendars down into the other group and all you can do is reorder them within the group they're already in. Even a duplication would work, if that is possible (to duplicate a whole calendar).
Any insight from anyone would be incredibly helpful.
Thanks a ton,
Zac

any help?

Syncing iCal to Google Calendars

I am using 10.3.9 and don't intend to upgrade until Leopard (due to expense) I have iCal 1.5.5 and iSync 1.5.
Because I cannot sync directly from iCal to my Sony Ericsson K750i mobile phone I have attempted to solve this by using Google Calendar to which I can export iCal, and using GooSync I can sync from Google Calendar to the phone.
Does any one know of a way of syncing iCal to Google Calendar as the export option is limited and time consuming compared to a true sync.
Even a way of exporting individual events would be preferable to eporting the entire calendar and would be almost as good as syncing, but my understanding is that I cannot export snippets in this way. I would love for someone to tell me I am wrong.

Have thunderbolt and need to sync ical with google calendar in order to use. Any suggestions?

Have a thunderbolt and MacBook. Need to sync ical with google calendar as thunderbolt supports google calendar. Any suggestions?

I think we may be talking about two different things. Thunderbolt is the new two way display port on Mac Book Pros and Apple displays.
Thunderbolt (originally codenamed Light Peak) is an interface for connecting peripheral devices to a computer via an expansion bus. Thunderbolt was developed by Intel and brought to market with technical collaboration from Apple Inc. It was introduced commercially on Apple's updated MacBook Pro lineup on February 24, 2011.
Thunderbolt combines PCI Express and DisplayPort into a serial data interface. A single Thunderbolt port supports hubs as well as a daisy chain of up to seven Thunderbolt devices; up to two of these devices may be high-resolution displays using DisplayPort. You can move data to and from peripherals up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and up to 12 times faster than with FireWire 800.

Sync issues with Google Calendar and e-mail alerts

Hello,
I'm experiencing a lot of problems with iCal while I'm trying to sync it with Google Calendar. I have correctly inserted my Google account information into iCal, but:
when I create a new event and I disable the e-mail alert and save it, it automatically turns on the e-mail alert! Is there a way to disable by default all alerts? I have already tried to go to Settings - Advanced and select “Disable all alerts” with no result;
all the events I create into iCal are correctly synced with Google Calendar and I can correctly read them on the web app, but in my android device they don't have the time information (they are listed as all-day events)

GooSync would do the trick - http://www.goosync.com/
Plz be aware that Goosync nor Google Contacts supports all field from your phone so it is not an 100% backup unfortunately

I am having problems with the month of October. When I have the full month view, the synced items from google calendars won't show. But they do for all the other months.

I am having problems with the month of October. When I have the full month view, the synced items from google calendars won't show. But they do for all the other months. There is definitely a glitch somewhere because if I am on day view and try to click on day 15 of October, it will not let me. It totally is acting weird.

Free fonts, fonts from a reliable foundry?
Have you tried removing them temporarily?
Do you still have problems if you create a new Windows user account and log in with that? How about if you start in Safe Mode?
And I would run a memory checker and see Troubleshoot font problems | Windows

IPhone only syncs when Outlook is open?

Hi there,
Strange thing: Our business iPhones only syncs when we leave Outlook 2003/2007 open!. If we closed Outlook or shutdown the PC it won't sycn.
We use Microsoft Exchange.
Any idea's?

The problem is most likely on the Exchange server side, not the phone. A few months ago a Microsoft patch broke Exchange syncing. Below are the notes from my Exchange administrator. You may want to discuss the problem with yours.
+We ran windows updates on the Exchange server a weekend or so before this problem on the 28th. One of the updates was a DNS fix that expanded the dynamic port range dns is using. Problem was, in it’s infinite wisdom, MS allowed this range change to include 2883, the AUTD or active sync port. So we had to do a registry change to exclude the port for Active sync only. Here’s the KB article:+
+http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956189+
+We had made this change in the past. But the updates on the weekend, must have reverted the registry change we did because the exception wasn’t there anymore.+

My google calendar on my PC will no longer sync to my google calendar in my iPhone! Help

So, I've had my iPhone since September of 2011--and it has synced beautifully with my Google calendar, until very recently! Now, I will put an event in my google calendar when I'm on my PC, and the event will show-up only on my Google calendar on my computer and NOT sync with my iPhone whereas it WOULD in the past. Same issue when I put an event in my iPhone's google calendar--it will show-up on there and send me reminders, but it will not show-up in my Google calendar on my computer. Weirdest of all---I will get push notifications of events from my iPhone for events that I put in my Google calendar from my PC; however, it will not show the event actually in my calendar when I view it. It's driving me nuts! I live by my calendar so this is causing all kinds of frustrations!
PLEASE HELP.

Try this
Settings>Mail Contacts and Calendars >tap the mail account - delete account - re-add the gmail account
Or Export your calendar and use iCloud

Calendar event entered on iPhone only syncs to imac via iCloud if I quit Calendar program and reopen.

I am new to support community. Was unable to get answer from Genius Bar. Did not have this problem initially (2 weeks ago) but not it has changed.

I have a quick follow up, if you don't mind. I tunred on iCloud for my calendar on the iPhone. Now it seems that if I enter a new item into my calendar thru the iPhone, I hvae to choose which calendar I want it to show up on - the PC calendar or the iCloud calendar.
If I chose the PC calendar when I sync with iTunes, it will sync with Outlook and show up there. But it won't show in the iCloud calendar, and thus not show on my iPad. If I choose to use the iClould calendar with the new entry, it will show up on iCloud but not in Outlook after I sync with iTunes.
There does not appear a way to have a new entry on my phone go to both calendars, thus having one sync with the iClould calander (and thus my iPad) and the other with my PC calendar (thus showing up in Outlook). Sort of defeats the purpose, it seems. If I cold choose both calendars in the edit field of the iPhone, that would seem to solve the issue.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks again for all your input.
Yes, iCloud and Outlooks local calendar are 2 different calendars, use 1 only (and if you want to see it on both devices) use the iCloud calendar. Outlooks local calendar is just that, local.

IPhone 5 calendar will not sync back to google calendar but will work in the other direction

Any help or anyone having a similar problem?it seems to be a google server problem

It used to work fine, but after our system administrator changed our google login name, I started experiencing problems with syncing. If I set something on my PC on my google calendar, it will show up on my phone. If I set something on my phone, it doesn't sync to google calendar in the cloud. What's worse, because the event isn't in the cloud, it deletes it from my phone. I have successfully changed my log in information on my phone and the e-mail part works fine. Only having problems with the calendar. Any ideas on how to fix it?
