Mavericks Calendar Exchange sync issue

I'm running OS X Mavericks and I'm having trouble syncing my calendar via Exchange. I keep getting an error message "Calendar can't connect to the account "my email account"". What is strange is that my emails are working fine. I have tried numerous times to re-enter my password but it's not working.
Appreciate your help.

Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock all your user files, reset their ownership, and remove their access-control lists. If you've set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Back up all data.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

  • Exchange sync issues

    I'm having an issue where my Exchange email seems to stop working on a random basis.  I have to delete my account and then re-add it in order to start receiving emails again.  My gmail and google apps accounts sync just fine.  I've checked with our IT department, and other users aren't having the same issue.  My phone worked fine up until about a week ago.  I deleted the certificate and re-installed it, just to be certain.  Any thoughts?  Any known issues I should be aware of?  Anyone else experiencing this problem?
    Thanks

    I'll have to check with the IT department.  Unless they have upgraded recently, we are using exchange 2003 SP1.  I'll also ask about the test account.
    As far as I know, and as far as IT knows, I'm the only one using WebOS.  The IT department only "supports" Blackberries & iPhones.  I prefer the Pre, and as long as the exchange sync works, I'll stick with it.
    I have had the issue happen again several more times.  It isn't an "8 am" exactly issue.  The other morning I received emails up until 9 or so, then stopped.
    I have tried just re-entering my password and that didn't seem to work.  Maybe I need to give it a little more time.  Maybe I should change my network password and see if that makes any difference.  Perhpas that is where the sync "disconnects".  Since exchange email works for iPhone users, I have to think it is a WebOS specific issue, versus an exchange issue, or perhaps I should say a WebOS - Exchange connection issue, as opposed to an "exchange" issue.
    I only asked about the logs because I was involved with a previous exchange sync issue and worked with the support techs several times, and they have asked for several logs.

  • Calendar / Outlook Sync issues

    Since the recent upgrade to Yosemite i have had problems with the syncing of Calendar and outlook. In short my calendar is generally used for personal appointments however I have added in my work outlook account so that i can see all appointments, and receive reminders through the notifications bar.
    I seem to get the following error message each time a change is made in the calendar.
    Can anyone help me get rid of this error message, its upsetting my OCD??

    It's hard to say without knowing exactly what she's doing.  You're going to have to watch what she does and teach her the correct ways as necessary.  The first thing you might want to do is put the assistant's calendar in online mode instead of
    cached mode, and make sure that she doesn't use cached copies of the executives' calendars.
    Calendaring often is problematic when you have multiple fingers in the same calendar all working different kinds of devices and software at various versions and revisions. 
    See the below links for good advice on how to resolve these kinds of issues. 
    In particular, try to have just one person on one client platform making all updates to calendars.

  • Exchange Sync issues - Cannot get mail - the connection to the server faile

    Since the upgrade to 2.2, I seem to be having a very frustrating mail issue that i cant seem to fix.
    While trying to download my mail from my INBOX (on an exchange server) i get an error message - "Cannot get mail - the connection to the server failed"
    ALTHOUGH when syncing my Sent mails, Calendar and contacts i have no issues.
    I have tried rebooting the iphone as well as deleting my mail settings and reloading. The reloading was close to working as the iphone did download some messages (in the inbox) but stops someway through it and gives me the error message. Once i get the error message the phone will not download anymore / other mail messages.
    Please can someone offer some suggestions.

    Hope this helps someone like me, who has trying to figure out what went wrong. I have an iPhone 3G and ActiveSync to Exchange 2003 was working perfect for month's. All of a sudden today it stopped syncing my inbox and my battery just about died? Searched and Searched, rebooted Exchange, removed email account info, still not luck keep getting "Cannot Get Mail" "The connection to the server failed" message. The weird thing is I could get to my sent items, Calendar and AD contacts? But a thread in another Apple forum opened my eyes to what the problem was...a corrupt email in my inbox. Not sure what email it was I pretty much deleted every email I had after the last one I received on the iPhone. But it fixed the problem, no messing with Exchange virtual directories...nothing...just deleted a corrupt email!
    Hope this helps someone.....

  • Exchange sync issues with yosemite

    I am having problems with my Exchange Server since upgrading to Yosemite.
    I have my Mac Mail / Calendar / Contacts apps set up with my Exchange server, and am also running an iPhone 5 and iPad 4.
    I have Outlook 2011 for Mac also installed on my Mac Book Air.
    The issues I have are as follows:
    My iPad and iPhone work fine. New contacts can be added / existing contacts changed as can appointments. These all sync fine with my exchange server, and update on all my clients & devices.
    I can add new appointments via my Outlook 2011 for Mac client, but cannot change existing ones. I can neither add new, nor change existing, contacts through Outlook.
    My Mac Mail app will add new appointments and sync to Exchange fine, but will not allow me to change existing calendar entries.
    My Mac Contacts app will not allow me to add new, nor change existing, contacts.
    I have progressed this as far as I can with Fasthosts (my domain registrars and email hosting company) and they can find no issues their end.
    It's very frustrating - anyone else out there have the same issue or is it just me!?

  • IPOD Nano : calendar/iCal sync issue

    Since the change made on MobileMe calendar, I can't sync my "old" iPODs nano calendar with iCal anymore. (I have a 2nd generation iPOD Nano and a 4th generation one)
    My guess is that the iCal datas are nomore on the Mac itself but somewhere in the MobileMe cloud and the iPOD nano can't find the datas anymore to update its calendar.
    Is there a way to solve this issue?
    Thanks a lot for any help or idea

    Nobody has any idea on the way to sync my "old" iPOD nano calendar with iCAL on my Mac running MacOS X 10.6.8?

  • Exchange sync issue

    I configured my iPhone to get corporate email through our exchange server, and it can send and receive email via IMAP. When I delete an email on my desktop/PC, it gets deleted on the iPhone. But when I delete a message on the iPhone, it doesn't get deleted on the Exchange server (though is does get marked as read).
    Is there a setting/fix for this? Does anyone sync both ways with Exchange?

    You should double check with your IT guys and see if they may know a possible reason. It might help if you specify it is for a smartphone and not the iPhone. Try http://live.mail2web.com/ untill a update comes up for your issue.

  • MAC LION AND BOLD 9700 - Duplicating calendar and syncing issues

    I have a Bold 9700 (OS 5) and a Desktop Manager running on MAC (OS LION).
    My calendar on the MAC works perfectly, however on the device it appears duplicated several times (however the duplication is 15 minutes ahead and it also creates a "new event" 15 minutes ahead. Very wierd.
    I also have error on syncing calendar and tasks.
    On the device, the CICAL and CMIME  are XXXgmail.com 
    Do you believe the new calendar on Lion is not compatible with the device?

    Hey snhuch,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    I would suggest going to Device>Forget Device in BlackBerry Desktop Software.  Then close it down unplug the BlackBerry via USB, Plug it back in then open BlackBerry Desktop Software and setup the synchronization and test a few times.

  • Calendar & Contact Syncing issues between Win & Iphone 3G

    I have an Iphone 3G and normally sync with my Windows computer at work since 2007 and all was good. Then I synced once with my MAC G4 at home a couple weeks ago, and updated my Itunes and since then I can not get my calendar or my contacts to sync on my Windows computer at work. I have tried restoring, over-writting everything on the phone, etc. But no outlook changes are being carried over to my phone. HELP This is how I track my kids lives, work life, and church meetings and I am having serious issues keeping up. My photos, and music, audiobooks are all syncing perfectly. Thank you!!!

    i think the issue is with the address book not the phone.
    my phone has all i want, i cant get it to overide the data/merge or anything on the mac.

  • Google calendar iPhone sync issue

    Unable to uncheck a calendar in the iPhone google calendar sync menu. Keep receiving notifications linked to this calendar even though I have disabled notifications.

    Outlook is definately a problem. Ive been at it for a couple of days going through this thread and others. Still not syncing.
    What Apple has to realize is that windows people have different microsoft offices, i use 2000 because the schedule is shared between everyone, this is an addon in newer copys of office.
    When i make a call or recieve a call i would like to see an option to add the caller to the schedule .. When your on the phone with the caller you can just hit a button and it brings you right to the calendar and enters the caller in the schedule where ever you place them.
    Anyway i will keep at the sync thing for a while and see what happens. Nothing so far. l8r

  • 3.1 Calendar - Exchange sync broken

    My Exchange calendar is gone after upgrade to 3.1 from 3.0.1. Email and contact seem to be synchronizing correctly, however calendar is gone, does not synchronize at all. When an invitation arrives, I get the message on the display, however when I push "View", an empty calendar is open, with an empty invitation folder.
    Would like to downgrade to 3.0.1 however I do not have the firmware downloaded and I also read it is impossible to go down the 3.1 -> 3.0.1 route.
    Don't want to flame, but I see a Microsoftish pattern in this...

    Same here. I don't mind having my personal appts in the company outlook calendar, but do not want my email sitting in Outlook and on the the company servers.

  • OS 7 TO BB10 CALENDAR RESTORE / SYNC ISSUE!

    I have an issue transferring data from my BOLD 9790 to Blackberry Q10.  All data gets backed up and restored without any error.  Only issue I have is my CALENDAR ENTRIES!  I have about 3500+ entries that go far back to 2010, and some entries that I have set a series (recurring) for in which it has an end date for...now have no end date and is going forever in the BB10 calendar.  So I basically have entries that have started in May 2010 which is still continuing to May 2013.
    I have tried the following:
    1. Used Blackberry Link to backup my Bold 9790...and then used Blackberry Link to restore the data to my Q10
    2. Used SD card method of backing up data from the Bold 9790...and then putting the SD card into the Q10 to do a device switch.
    3. Used the old Blackberry Desktop manager backed up the data, then used Blackberry Link to read the backup file and restore
    4. Used Blackberry Protect from Bold 9790 to back up data, and then used Blackberry Protect from Q10 to restore
    I have tried just about everything I can think of and its a little frustrating as I live by my BB Calendar.  I've had no issues in the past from restoring my 3500+ calendar entries from Torch 9800 to Bold 9790.  There seems to be some sort of error when the files get read in the new BB10 OS.
    Does anyone know if there maybe any other solution to this?
    Will Blackberry have a fix for this in the next update possibly?
    I live by my Blackberry calendar and i'm sure most do as well.  For a simple backup such as this to a product that is within the company, and to have an issue like this is a little concerning.  I really like my new Q10 and I hope this calendar issue doesn't prevent me from returning it.

    Hey jay2k_11,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Have you tried importing these calendar appointments from Microsoft Outlook? If not, I would suggest following the steps in this blog article: http://helpblog.blackberry.com/2013/03/blackberry-​link-import-outlook/
    I look forward to your reply.
    Cheers.

  • Mac Mail and MS Exchange Syncing Issues

    I have seen this issue mentioned in the forum, but have not found any answers to help. 
    I have receive mail through Exchange from the university for which I work.  I get the mail on my iPhone just fine.  However, it does not come through on my MacBook Pro.  I have to go into preferences and disable the account and then enable it again and then everything comes through.  I am not sure what the problem is.  I have updated my operating system to 10.9.2.  This has worked fine in the past, but is not working properly now.  Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

    I can assure you that integration between Mail and Exchange is possible, at least in some scenarios. I am the primary Exchange system administrator for a medium-sized university that uses Exchange 2003 with an OWA (Outlook Web Access) front-end server.
    I currently have Mail and Entourage 2004 running side by side on my just upgraded Mac. I used the mail account configuration wizard with ease. Go to the the Mail Preferences and click on Accounts. You can use the '+' button to add an account. Supply your full name and email address to the wizard and click continue. In the Account Type selection, choose Exchange. Type a friendly description such as "Exchange - Your Name". To get things to work correctly, you may need to know on what backend server your mailbox resides. You will also need to know what your OWA server is named on the network. You will also need to know what server is your outgoing mail server. This will likely be the same as your OWA or backend server. You should be able to retrieve those items from your Entourage settings. In my configuration, I was able to put the name of my OWA server (ex. owa.company.com) in both the Incoming Mail Server and Outlook Web Access Server fields as well as the outgoing mail server.
    I am not sure how the configuration will vary with Exchange 2007 or in an environment without an OWA server. There are also issues with Address Book Integration of the Global Address List in Leopard in situations where there are multiple domains in a single forest. In that regard, contacts won't automatically resolve as they do in Entourage in many cases.
