My calendar is stuck

My calendar is stuck on Start & End function.  Neither the "cancel" or "done" buttons respond.  What next?

Re: I too am getting the "Moving calendars to server account" pane when I open iCal

Hey all, I had the same problem. Everyone seemed to have different solutions that worked for them--but not for me . Here's what actually fixed 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.
It worked for me!
Hope this helps you!

  • Calendar app stuck on year view

    iPhone 4S running OS 8.1 - Calendar app stuck in year view. Shows todays date in red but when you try to go to "Today" nothing happens. Any thoughts?

    There is more than one place to change time. If you set the time to local, you need to go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>scroll down to the bottom under calendar and set the time zone support there for the local time zone.

  • How do I fix Calendar getting stuck with updating to iOS5?

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch.  I updated to iOS5 this summer, but some programs/apps got very slow, but the biggest, consistent problem is the Calendar app.  It gets stuck, it launches and the calendar is "empty" even though there are series of appt. each day.  If it does launch okay and I try to touch the + to make a new appointment, it is extremely slow, but if it does work, when I tap "done" for it to make the appointment, it gets stuck on the screen and I have to leave the program by tapping the home screen.
    How do I get the Calendar app to function smoothly, properly, and just work?
    Here's my set up:
    3rd generation iPod Touch.
    iOS 5.1.1
    In Settings -> Accounts:
    1.****@gmail.com (which then says iCloud) with Mail "off", Contacts "on" Calendars "OFF", Bookmarks "On" Notes "Off"
    2. Gmail with Mail, Calendars and Notes "ON." 
    (This was the set up from the days of iOS4, IMAP gmail/mail program via wifi, Calendar syncs via google calendar and syncs over to iCal on MacBook Pro, Notes sync wifi into Mail program notes.)
    I have tried switching Calendar Off and on again and it doesn't help, but I can try again.  I'm looking for the next level of diagnostics or means to remedy the problem.
    Thanks!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                 
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Deleted event in calendar is off the calendar but stuck in Invitations

    How Do I delete a stuck invitation that has no Accept or Decline button available?

    I don't know that it can be turned off, and I don't even use Apple's Calendar much (as a BusyCal user), but you might find it's useful if you learn to use it as intended. That box is pretty smart if you mention the date and location in the box before hitting enter.
    Just type the date, time, and place in that "title" box:
    "Birthday party Friday 8:00 PM at Joe's Place"
    That pops up an event with a start date of the next Friday (e.g., 10/05/2012 today in the US), start time of 8:00 PM, and "Joe's Place" in the location. It strips out the date and time before creating the event title that it pops up; it leaves the location in the title, but the title comes up selected so you can edit it before confirming the event with the "Done" button.
    The event is entered in the default calendar, but you can select any calendar by holding down the "+" button a second or two. There may be a way to do it with the menu or the keyboard command-n shortcut, but I haven't found it; you can select another calendar on the popup before hitting the "Done" button.

  • Calendar backup stuck in a loop

    I am trying to backup my Calendar from my MacBook Pro to my iPad through iCloud. It has ran all afternoon and again this morning and I cannot stop it. I think it is stuck in a loop. I have tried force quit and turning the computer off but when I turn it back on it is still trying to do it. Any suggestions?

    Sounds like a problem with your library. Go to applications in finder and double click iMovie app while holding down the option key. You should get a dialog box which allows you to choose another library to open. If you don't have another library you can create one here and iMovie should open for you.

  • My calendar is stuck on the month view.

    How do I get back to the day view?  There are no options for day, month or year at the bottom of the screen.

    Hello Schertzy,
    Thanks for the question.  You can change the calendar’s view by tapping on the actual year, month, or day that you are trying to view. 
    For example, if you are viewing the month, you can tap on any date on that month to zoom in and view the entries for that day, but if you would like to zoom out to see the year, tap on the year in the upper left hand corner:
    Change your view. Tap a year, month, or day to zoom in or out on your calendar.

  • Calendar app stuck in "moving calendars to server account" after yosemite upgrade

    No matter how many times I force quit (because its essentially frozen) the Calendars app on my MacBook, it is constantly going through the same steps and freezing on the "Moving Calendars to Server Account" stage. I just recently upgraded to Yosemite and did not have this problem when I upgraded to Mavericks. How do I stop this?

    Hi, cmarthur.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    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.

  • Calendar app stuck on another time zone.

    I left Nigeria for Kansas, U.S. that's 6 hours behind so I changed the time settings on my phone to KS time zone but the Calendar app on my 3GS doesn't seem to understand that. When I create an event for, say, 8 PM today (to be notified at that time), I get a notification at 2 PM today—6 hours before the intended time. It's like Calendar thinks I'm still in Nigeria. I've been all over Settings and I can't figure it out.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    There is more than one place to change time. If you set the time to local, you need to go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>scroll down to the bottom under calendar and set the time zone support there for the local time zone.

  • IPad calendar appts stuck in military time

    I'm working on an iPad 2. My issue is with the calendar. The calendar itself is set in standard a.m./p.m. time, but it has reset the appointments to military/24 hour time. This can't be corrected by turning off 24 hour time, because its already off. If I am looking at the "day" calendar with the split screen, the right hand side shows the day laid out by the hour, in standard time, but on the left, the appointments are shown with military time. So if I am in the monthly calendar and I click on an appt, it will show "13:30 pm to 14:30pm" but when I go to edit the event it shows starts 1:30pm to 2:30pm. How can I fix this glitch?

    Settings > Date & Time > 24-hour time -Off.
    Also you might want to check time zone settings, and go into International and check the Region Format. Then do a reset of the phone by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. That will restart the phone. This should correct it.

  • HT4372 For some reason my Google calendar is stuck on iCloud.

    I'm not sure how I can remove these sub calendars without hard deleting them from Google. The calendar I tested with did a hard delete.. eep. Yes, I've removed Google from my account settings.

    I'm going to guess that these are calendars you had subscribed to (either on your phone or your computer) before iCloud as opposed to A Google calendar you were actually 'syncing' via ActiveSync (via setting up Gmail as an Exchange account). When you set up iCloud (before you removed the subscribed calendars) you merged your existing calendars with iCloud, meaning it imported them.
    Sign in to iCloud.com and delete the calendars that don't belong there. iCloud does not interact with the actual Google Calendars. What you're seeing is a side effect of merging your existing data. It seems the subscribed calendars were treated as local.

  • Calendar stuck in year view

    On my iphone 4 using ios7.02 the calendar is stuck in year view.  There are no tabs.  I can't escape.  I tried quitting and restoring the phone, that did not work.  How do I get back to the classic month view with the tabs?

    At the top of the calendar there is supposed to be a set of tabs for view: day, list, month, year.  On my phone, it is stuck in a year view with no tabs at the top.
    In IOS7 the interface has changed, the year view do not have any tabs on top except Search (lupe icon) and a plus sign ( + ) on the right. If you hold the iPhone in Landscape mode (horizontally) you get a week's view.

  • TS3988 How do I stop my Calendar moving to server account seems stuck and will not complete. Force Quitting changes nothing?

    I have just added I cloud to my PC and my Calendar is stuck trying to move to server account.
    It has shown a couple of failure messages but I cannot access preferences as ther are greyed out.
    What can be done to stop calendar trying to upgrade?

    I am having the same issue.  I am on MacOS 10.9 and the "genius" at the Apple Store deleted all my events on iCloud and attempted to re-upload them but the Calendar app has been in limbo, "Moving calendars to server account" for days.
    If I quit the Calendar app and start it back up it immediately resumes uploading.  So currently my Calendar app is unusable.
    I would like to do 2 things.  First, get it to stop moving events to iCloud.  And second, find out how I can sync Calendar events from my Mac (running OS 10.9) and my iPhone 5S.
    The reason why the Apple 'genius' was trying to clean out my events from iClous and re-upload them was because despite having iCloud turned on for Calendars on both my Mac and iPhone, they were still not syncing all my events.

  • Calendar stuck on add event screen.

    I was trying to add an event in my calendar and now the calendar is stuck on the add event screen. Went to I-Tunes and restored my phone, but calendar still remains on the add event screen.  How do I fix this?

    Thank you for your response. No, that is not the same screen. I know which screen you are talking about. The screen I am having trouble with does not respond to anything I do. It is just a calendar showing me two or three dates with blank event squares. I try to tap the dates, but nothing happens. I have tapped on the few squares to no avail. When I go back to my home screen and select Calendar again I continue to get the same screen. I was very frustrated and waited for my grandson to check it out and of course it went right to the screen to add events. Since then, I have had it happen again many times, but if I just give up for 30 minutes or so, it seems to reset itself. I do not like this 7.0.4 format! This has not been my only problem. I would welcome any other suggestions.

  • TS1702 My calendar app is stuck.  I cannot complete an entry or cancel it.  It is the calendar that comes with the iPhone.  Any suggestions on what I can do to unstick it?

    My Iphone calendar is stuck.  I went to add an entry and it is stuck in time area.  I cannot add by clicking DONE and cannot CANCEL to close the entry.  How can I unstick it so I can continue to add entries and check previously entered info?  Been stuck for 2 days.

    Reboot your phone.  You will not lose any data.
    Hold both Home and Power button together for some 15 seconds until the white Apple appears.  Ignore the red slider than appears first and wait for the white Apple logo.  Then let go and wait for the iPhone to reboot and restart.
    Your calendar app should be OK then.
