IPod Touch 1.1.2 - calendar events don't show up on iCal
Hi, I just upgraded my iPod Touch to 1.1.2 using the option-click Restore with the downloaded firmware. All went well.
Then, tried to add new events in on the iPod, no problem. But I can't get them to sync with the Mac. Just won't show up in iCal! How disappointing. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get events from my iPod to iCal.
Running 10.5 + iTunes 7.5 + QT 7.3 + iPod Touch 1.1.2
Thanks, Malcolm
Ok, got calendar events syncing now. I think it was a problem with iCal. But here's what I did:
- Clicked restore on iPod Touch, by this time the 1.1.2 update was available on iTunes, so wiped it and updated it to 1.1.2 "official"
- Synced up calendars and contacts first to see if it would work, the weirdest thing was that events I had created on the touch before reset and that didn't show on iCal were back on the touch!! Spooky. They must have synced to iCal but iCal didn't show them (even after restarts).
- Chose "Back up iCal" in the File menu, and then "Restore iCal" from the backup I just made, and hey presto the iPod Touch created events were now showing. They had been in iCal all along but iCal was hiding them.
- Tested out two way syncing of events, all works great now.
I love my iPod touch again (except for the Safari crashing stuff...) That was harder than it needed to be.

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. -
Past calendar events don't show in Outlook
My calendar events from 4 months back doesn't show in Outlook, but I am able to see everything through the oracle client. Is there any setting I can use to correst that.
Hi,
We raised this issue as a TAR through metalink. To fix this problem (i.e. allow you to view calendar meetings more than 2 weeks before the current date), you have to change a value in a config file on the server. The default value for viewing historic calendar entries is 2 weeks. Changing the value in Outlook (Oracle Connector options) won't work if the server config file is set to the default.
Unfortunately I don't have access to Metalink at the moment so I can't tell you where to change it but if you do a search there you should be able to find it.

HT5029 Subscribed iCal calendar events don't show on iphone
I have followed all the instructions & my subscribed calendar does show in my iphone list of calendars under iCloud. The problem is none of the events from this subscribed calendar show up. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the subscription but always have the same results. Any suggestions? What am I missing?
I have the same problem. Spoke with Apple support. They gave me a way to update the subscribed calendars, BUT it is not automatic. Go to iCloud on your iPhone, turn off the calendar button (select the keep data on my iphone button), wait a minute, turn the calendar button back on, select the merge data button. This will update your subscribed calendar data.

Ipod touch does not synch calendar or notes with my Windows Vista PC
Ipod touch does not synch calendar or notes with my Windows Vista PC. I have calendar and notes entries in my Outlook calendar, but they do not synch with my Ipod touch. They used to work fine, but stopped around 2 weeks ago. I connect my ipod to i tunes, but the "info" area of itunes is not allowing me to tick the boxes to synch calendar, outlook, or notes.
Hello Welcome To Apple Discussions
plug in your ipod and select the info tab and look for calender sync (something similar to that) and click the program your using for your calender.
try that
Thank You
sincerly

I was downloading the software update for ipod touch 2gen and after it was done downloading it showed that there was an error with my ipod and when i saw it was on the lockscreen loading. its been like this for 4 hours already

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I just bought iPod touch 8GB put it in iTune and it show only 34Mb available. and it been use up 6.2GB show from the iTune Summery as "OTHER 6.2 GB" so I don't have enoght space to sync any much application for my kids. How do i do? I already make sure it has no Picture, songs ...all only app that come with the factory default. How do I do? or something wrong..
I got iPhone and another ipod touch (32GB) but it has a lot of space available...I just can't fix it out what OTHER 6.2GB used came from?Other can be files that the iPod has "lost" or can no longer recognise.
So either you bought this second hand and it had someone else's stuff on it, or you were unlucky and the first Sync of your iPod to iTunes resulted in a lot of "Other".
Conect the iPod to iTunes and on the Device/Summary pane (tab) look for and select the Restore button. -

The Front camera of my iPod Touch isn't working,I have done everything possible...restart it, up date it...etc. NOTHING WORKS, is there a program or something I can download??
Your iPod is probably covered by the warranty. Check here:
Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
However, it does not cover misuse such as caused by dropping the iPod.
- Try resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- See if placing the iPod in recovery will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:

All day events don't show on wiki calender
for some reason any all day events i put in ical doesn't update on the wiki, its fine for any other events that aren't all day, has anybody found a solution for this? Also is it possible to colour code events?
Even stranger, I have this problem with one calendar and MobileMe (and thus my other Macs.)
Only one calendar, and multi-day events don't show up. Uncheck 'all-day' and they appear. Re-check 'all-day' and they turn into multi-day events on me.com
Very strange indeed. -
N900 Calendar events didn't show up on widget
My device is running on the latest (?) V 10.2010.12-9 firmware, I find some of my calendar events didn't show up on the widget. It show 5 current events, but when I add an event in between the dates it didn't show up, but the widget does reflect changes to the current events, ie. date and title change, if I remove an event a later event will fill up the space. All my events are in the default N900 local group, and I don't see anything wrong with the setting, is this a bug ??
Now I know what happen, the build in calendar widget has problem that only shows repeated events, I install the 'calendar home widget' and it worked normally, but the calendar still has problem, the event alarm can not set between 1 and 3 hours, the same problem on an old S60 model I forget which one.
