Mavericks update with iCal issue 'Moving Calendars To Server Account'

I updated to Mavericks a few days ago on my iMac after having Snow Leopard. When I opened up my calendar, as it went to sync with the iCloud it came up with 'Moving Calendars to Server Account and that's been on for the past couple of days.
I tried force closing it and restarting the computer and that didn't work so I'm out of ideas. Any support would be really appreciated!!
Thanks!!

Thanks oliverleonidas,
I did actually find this out late last night. The problem now is that I have lost all my iCal entries, as was warned by the iCloud god.
So next step is to get that info back if I can.
I have all entries still on my iPhone and am a little worried about conecting it to the MacBook.
Let me know if you have any ideas on that little saga.
Thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated.
Cheers

  • Calendar hang with a MSG"moving calendars to server account

    the calander hang with  moving calendars to server account oparation every time i started it , every time i should force quit it

    Have you tried turning calendar syncing off and on agfain or deleting your iCloud account and signing in again.

  • Moving calendar to server account-since recent update to OS X (10.9?) Calendar is hung forever: will not complete this step.

    Didn't want to move Calendar to iCloud (synching through USB was sufficient and secure) but felt forced to with recent OS update.
    Calendar has been unusable now for month. Get the scrolling barbershop pole with the message "Moving calendar to server account".
    - It never stops
    - While it's doing it, Calendar is frozen (cannot make any entries)
    - Cannot get into most menu items (greyed out) so cannot figure out what's wrong.
    I feel I'm at risk of losing a decade of Calendar items--for an move to iCloud that I never wanted.

  • How to remove "Moving calendars to server account "

    Upon my first use of iCloud my Calender is now continuously hung-up with the message "Moving calendars to server account"  I tried to go into system and iCloud preferences and it won't let me change anything.  All I wanted was to share pics with iCloud and now I have lost the use of my calendar and can't figure out how to turn off the calender transfer or turn my old calender back on.  I see other people with the same problem in this community, but no answers provided?

  • After installation on iMac, Mavericks Calendar yields only "moving calendars to server account". Can't do anything else with it except Force Close. Please help. Works perfectly on my AirBook. Thanks.

    Now with Maverick, on my iMac, iCal opens only with "moving calendars to server account".  No other function can be performed. It can be only "force quit". (iCal seems to work perfectly on my airbook.) It ran in this mode for 8 hours or more overnight last night, and continued to do so when I restarted 'puter this morning, did Disk Utility functions, and restarted computer. I think I have iCloud settings properly set, but perhaps not. Advice, suggestions are most welcome. TIA.

  • Moving calendars to server account hangs as soon as iCal opens

    This moving  message hangs iCal, even the menu items including Quit Calendar.  My iCloud accounts includes two iPhone 4's, iPad 2, iPad, and iMac (OS X 10.9.1)

    i had the same issue recently. user melisolaris posted this and solved my problem:
    1. Force quit iCal and Reminders.
    2. On your computer, unlink Calendars and Reminders from iCloud:
    > System Preferences > iCloud > Uncheck Calendars AND Reminders
    (I did this because my Reminders uses my Calenders; I set deadlines for reminders, etc. Also, because my reminders weren't syncing with my iCloud as they should.)
    3. It'll ask if you want to delete the calendar and reminder events from your computer. Say yes because you should already have the most up-to-date copy on your iCloud.
    4. Open iCal. It should no longer display the "moving calendars to server account" message.
    5. Add your iCloud account to iCal.
    > Calendar > Add Account... > iCloud > Sign in with Apple ID and PW
    6. Give it a minute to update. You should see all your iCloud calendar events with no error message.
    7. Quit iCal. Open Reminders.
    8. Add your iCloud account to Reminders.
    > Reminders > Add Account... > iCloud > Sign in with Apple ID and PW
    9. Test the two programs by adding test events and reminders to see if they show up on your iPhone and your Macbook.

  • 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.

  • I have shared my icalendars with family members via icloud and now my calendar on my computer has been stuck saying "Moving calendars to server account" for literally 5 days.  What do I do?

    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.

  • 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!!
