Mobileme and ical not syncing

Mobileme is broken and not opening ical when I am signed in.  mac and iphone and macbook can't sync ical with each other.  the round disc just runs and runs until it times out with error message.  This is on discussion boards and wide spread.  When will it be fixed.
I want to wait until more kinks get worked out before going to icloud and you said ical would continue to work. 
please update.

iCal issue - Where are they hiding?
Posting here as this is the closest I can find to my issue..
Two, maybe more, Birthday Events appear on my iPhone but not on/in iCal on my macbook.
Tried clearing the iphone and resyncing. Same condition.
Tried removing the cache from iCal and resyncing using the replace calendar option in iTunes. Still no good. Have checked the the full listing of all events on iCal.
Where can these two events be hiding ? Not a huge deal, but now really curious.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

  • Entourage and iCal not syncing with iPhone

    I have been having a problem lately. I get many calendar entries over email from my parents and I get them on my phone with only the name of it as the subject of the email and I can't approve it over my phone. One of my questions is am I able to approve or deny them over my phone and then sync it to my computer? Also my MobileMe free trial expired and I don't want to purchase a real trial. My calendar entries will not sync to my phone for some reason. I have iCal and Entourage synced but it won't go onto my phone. And when I plug my phone into my computer to sync, it only says my calendar can be synced with MoblieMe and won't give me an option to change it. (Extra info: I have a second generation iPhone)
    Thank you so much and I hope people are able to help me.
    Cheers.

    So I got on the phone with APP today and it turns out iCal was pretty messed up.
    A bunch of the files for iCal were missing (com.apple.iCal.plist) and such.
    Simple solution in the end:
    Completely delete iCal (delete the icon from your applications folder) and reinstall iCal using your latest operating system disk (in my case, the OS X 10.5 disk). All my calendars, etc, where happily there after I reinstalled iCal.

  • Address Book and iCal not syncing

    When syncing my nano it will not allow me to sync my Address Book or iCal details.
    The options are grayed out and if I manage to select them iTunes forces the programs open telling me to find what I want to sync. This still does not work.
    Any idea what may be causing this?
    I would really like to get this fixed, especially as I have just ordered an iPod Touch!

    Answered by finding out elsewhere that the iSync tool has an option to refresh all old sync history.

  • ICal not syncing with iPhone and MobileMe,  tasks

    I have iPhone, MobileMe, and iCal on my Mac.
    I have no problems sending calendar events between iPhone and MobileMe, and Address Book in my computer.
    I have a problem with iCal- it just doesn't sync with anything, even though MobileMe is set for it.
    I called apple customer service, they told me I have this problem because I had MobileMe as a trial, but it still is a problem, after I purchased year subscription.
    Also I don't know how do tasks, or to-do list work. There is a basic list on iCal- that one also does not sync.
    thanks

  • ICal not syncing w/ mobileme

    iCal has stopped syncing with Mobileme. When I try to sync I get the error message "Calendars could not be synced due to inconsistent data. Confirm that your computer's data is valid, then reset Calendars on MobileMe in System Preferences." I have unchecked Calendars in Syst Prefs, synced, rechecked, and synced and it does not work. How can I resolve this and sync it?

    I am having the same problem with iCal not syncing. I have 3 Macs (iMac, Macbook, and G5 Tower) that are all normally synced using MobileMe and 2 iPhones that sync as well, but the computers just stopped syncing the other day. It seems to be an Apple problem but I don't know how to remedy it. I've tried what has worked for some other folks here where you changed the sync to the computer from the mobile me in sys prefs but once the main computer that holds the calendar has a change it messes up the others again. It's becoming very frustrating and I can't seem to get to the proper link on the support pages to get an Apple tech to help. I noticed on the Mobile Me page it says that they did an update the other day that could affect peoples syncing but it says it's now resolved. Not for me, anyone has any thoughts I'd sure appreciate it.

  • Events on ical not sync to iphone

    events on ical not sync to iphone

    Hey mikefromstratford,
    I'd read through the following article about iCal to double check the syncing process. There are two main ways to sync your iCal events onto your iPhone, so depending on which one you use you'll want to check out either the "Set up your iCloud calendar account for use with iCal" or "Sync your calendars with iPhone, iPod, or iPad" sections:

    I'm using a Mac to sync my devices , but the Windows Address Book should also work, as well as the apps which store the data in the cloud like Google and Yahoo for example. See also page 48 in the iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide 
                                       Contacts
    You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Contacts (Vista and Windows 7), or Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with one application at a time.)
    If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your new login information when you
    change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve set up syncing.
                                       Calendars
    You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)
    Did you already try to reset the Sync history in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, as suggested in the Troubleshooting article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692 ?

  • Palm T|X and ical wont sync.

    My Palm T|X and ical wont sync. I never had this problem with 10.4, but now that I am running 10.5.1 everything else syncs fine, except ical. I have reinstalled Palm Desktop and reset my conduit per Palm's recommendations, but still no luck. Any suggestions?

    I have a palm tungsten E2 and I was able to sync with ical using Tiger and Palm's own hotsync feature, but not with Leopard. Check out markspace.com. They have a beta version that is the missing link. I am nervous to try a beta. I'm hoping that Apple will get their isync worked out.

    But I must point out that leaving the iPhoto Library on the external is worth considering. Your internal drive would be better off without having to carry the photos.
    When you booted with the external connected and you were asked for the library, did you try navigating to the Library in on the external drive?

    I am installing itunes to a laptop and have not sync device to this lap. It is saying that it must first restore device. The problem is I have over 2000 pictures and don't want to lose them. Now my phone is in restore mode and I don't know what to do. I don't want to proceed and loose these very important photos of family. What do I do to get it out of restore mode? My phone will not allow me to do anything to it at this point. I have the itunes downloaded on the laptop now. When I push the button for the phone it just shows Itunes and plug. I can't even call or open phone up.

    Unfortunately... Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...

    Using a computer, other than the one you have regularily been Syncing and Backing up to, was the begining of your issue.

  • HT1212 my iphone is disabled and it wont give me a chance to do the passcode and its not synced how do i fix it

    My phone is disabled for a long time and its not synced how can i change the passcode

    You need to restore the device. It is the only way to disable the passcode. Your data is already lost unless you have synced this phone in the past. See this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212

  • Iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done all trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail.

    iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • HT4489 Ever since the last update IOS5.1.1, calendar entries are not saved on Icloud, and would not sync on all I clould devices

    After the last update of IOS5.1.1, all caledar entries are not saved on Icloud and thus not synced on all my Icloud devices, even though, spreadsheets are synced, photostream is working and contacts is syncing, only calendar items.  Anybody has the same problem? Or a solution to this kind or problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.
