Mail is blocked by a message that says "moving calendars to server account..."  Have to force quit to get out of it.  Any ideas?

I have tried to set up iCloud on my Mac which is running Mavericks.  The Calendar program is blocked by a message saying "moving calendars to server account..."  which has been running for days.  I can only get out of Calendars by using force quit.  Any ideas?

susanjoan50,
Go to iCloud.com on your computer. Log in and open the Calendar App, to verify that your events are still present. If so, follow the Calendars Archive/Copy procedure listed in iCloud: Archiving or making copies of your iCloud data.
Then Quit/Force Quit iCal on your computer, and paste this text ~/Library into the Finder>Go>Go to Folder...window and select "Go." This will open the Users Library Folder.
Next open the Calendars Folder in the User Library Folder and move any any files with "Cache" listed in the name field to your Desktop.
Also open the Preferences Folder in the same Library Folder, and move the com.apple.iCal.plist file to the Desktop.
Log out/in or restart, and open iCal.

    No one have any idea as to what's going on with my issue?
    A lot of people do, if you take a look at the More Like This widget on the right side of this page.
    Try signing out and back in to iCloud in System Preferences.

    I was struggling with this since my latest Itunes update.  Fiirst it would not recognize my IPad as a device, after correcting that, it would list the Ipad in my device but my Sync had no options (summry, info, etc). and it kept saying it was "Accessing Itunes store".  reading your question I suddently tried deleting the itunes task (alt-ctrl, delete, processes) and delete Itunes.  (By the way, I had rebooted my computer several times over the last few days).  I opened up Itunes, and voila. Device is there. No "accessing windows" and my sync has the normal options.

  • Calendar has been non-functional for hours, with small screen saying "Moving calendars to server account..." Help?

    Calendar on Mavericks MacPro has been non-functional for hours, with small screen saying "Moving calendars to server account..." How can I restore its function?

    Sorry. I found some other advice that solved the problem ere I saw your response.
    The advice was:
    Go to Finder. Holding "Option" key, find Library in "Go" pull down menu.   In Library. Select Calendars. To desktop, drag all files with the word "cache." Then go to Preferences (still in Library) and drag to desktop "com.apple.ical.plist".  Restart. Now Calendar is working perfectly, and rechecking under Library, the caches files and the com.apple.ical.plist  that were dragged to the desktop have reappeared in Calendars and Preferences.
    All is well. Many thanks for your reply! Sorry that I did not get to check it out.

    Hi, Confused As Always CB. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Hopefully I can help resolve this issue for you.  Try removing the preference to sync calendar events in iCloud preferences.  Once this is down enable the preference again and see if this resolves the issue.
    Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on:
    Quit Calendar (or iCal).
    Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then select iCloud.
    Deselect the checkbox next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
    Open System Preferences and select iCloud.
    Replace the checkmark next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences.
    Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue is resolved.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it reinitializes your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
    If the issue persists, try all remaining steps in the article below.

  • 9 times out of 10 I have to force-quit to get out of my g-mail. This only happens only on my i-Mac, never on my Macbook pro. Can anybody help ?

    MAX OS X - version 10.7.5 :
    For some weeks now, I have to force-quit 9 times out of 10 to get out of my e-mail account (g-mail). This only happens on my i-Mac, never with my other devices (Macbook Pro, i.Phone, i-Pad).
    Does anybody know what could be the reason for this ?
    Thanks

    OK, you have iMovie 08, which is also known is iMovie Version 7.1.4. It has been a few years since i used this version, so this is based on memory.
    The only components you must have in the Library/QuickTime folder are the AppleIntermediateCodec.component and the AppleMPEG2Codec.component.
    All the others could potentially be causing problems. I would drag the DivX components, the Flip4Mac components, and the Google Camera components to the Desktop temporarily, so nothing is left in this folder except the two Apple components.
    Then restart your Mac and start iMovie. If it works, yay!
    If you still need these other components for some other app, you can probably get updated DivX components for free at Perian.org.
    You can get updated Flip4Mac components by running WMV Player and updating. It should prompt you to update automatically.
    I am not sure about the Google components, but if you are running something that needs them, it should prompt you to install the current versions.
    If none of that works, post back.

    No, your Yahoo account is not in iCloud (which only handles iCloud mail), it is in Yahoo, and the Yahoo mail account is on your iPad.
    But the MacBook Pro will have none of it! I write this question now as I fear that I will be totally demented very soon and unable to formulate my thoughts clearly!
    Get the correct settings for your account from Yahoo and set it up manually.
    By the way, I also find the "password" issue problematical. It seems Apple want my Apple password rather than my eMail password. All very confusing.
    That would depend on what you are trying to do.

    I am trying to update my iTunes so I can sync my new iphone 5s and it doesn't recognize the phone, apple support said I need to update my iTunes when I try and do that I get an error message that says " the ITunes update server could not be contacted. Please check your internet connection or try back later.
    My internet works fine and I have tried back dozens of times with same result.

    Did you ever figure out the problem? "Contact Software Manufacturer"?? That sounds ominous... I've got the same issue and I'm pretty durn aggravated right about now....
    Thanks!

  • I'm trying to set up my Facetime but I'm getting a message that says my registering device does not have appropriate credentials

    katharina,
    The specific circuit board I was talking about is the "Logic Board" which should have the serial number of your computer embeded electronnicaly.  Sometimes the technicians who replace this board do not bother to enter the computer's serial number into it after making the repair/replacement.  Probably because they don't think that it is important.  The only way you can have this done is to bring it back to the shop where it was repaired, and have them do it. On some Macs you can check the electronic serial number by clicking on the Apple logo on the top left hand corner of the screen, then clicking on "about this mac" then clicking on "more info" button on the window which will appear.  If you can't see any serial number, then your replacement board was not serialized.

  • After enabling iCloud, the calendar on my MacBook shows a window stating "moving calendar to server account. Then a box appears saying "server responded with an error message 403. Then another box shows "couldn't move calendar to iCloud, an error occurrre

    After enabling iCloud, the calendar on my MacBook shows a window stating "moving calendar to server account. Then a box appears saying "server responded with an error message 403. Then another box shows "couldn't move calendar to iCloud, an error occurrre

    iCloud's Calendar is full of errors and problems for me.  The "Couldn't move your calendars to iCloud because an error occurred" is now gone (by itself) but nothing syncs between my Mac's Calendar to iCloud or my iPhone to iCloud.
    I tried creating a new event directly on iCloud.com to see whether it pushes to any of my device and  got this "This event couldn't be created because of a server error; please try again." error.
    Apple, please fix this!!

    Quit Calendar and also the Reminders application, if it's running. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data.
    In the iCloud preference pane, uncheck the boxes marked Calendars and Reminders. You'll be prompted to confirm that you want to delete your iCloud calendars and reminders from the computer. They'll still be on iCloud.
    Relaunch Calendar and select
    Calendar ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts
    Click the plus-sign button at the bottom of the account list on the left (which may now be empty) to add a new account. Select iCloud and enter your credentials. Your iCloud calendars should appear after a brief delay.
    Do the same with Reminders.
