My Outlook calendar items won't show on my iPad

I am not very tech savvy. I use Outlook 2010 on my PC for all my calendar appointments. In other words, I enter all of my calendar appointments via Outlook 2010 on my PC. I want them to show up on my iPad Air as well. My iPad Air says the only way to sync my calendar is via iCloud, I can't do it via USB cable and iTunes sync. It also says it will happen automatically. Except it's not. The calendar is not syncing. None of the current or past appointments that are on the Outlook calendar on my PC show up on my iPad. Why is this? How do I get it to sync? I have gone everywhere, in iCloud, iTunes, on the iPad and in Outlook on my PC and I can't see anything that will make a sync occur.
What specific settings do I need to check or enable on either the iPad, in iCloud or on my PC to make the appointments on my PC Outlook calendar show up on my iPad Air?

Thanks, Sooner Al, I had read those support instructions before posting here and did not understand them. What nothing in there says is that Outlook has two versions: an Outlook data file version (My Calendar) and an iCloud version.Or maybe the support instructions say this but in a techhie way that I could not understand. Anyway, iPad will only sync with the iCloud version. The Outlook data file version will not sync to iPad. So, any appointments you enter using the Outlook data file version (My Calendar) will not sync to iPad. Also, you cannot copy appointments from the Outlook data file version to the iCloud version, you have to manually re-enter everything into the iCloud version. 
I cannot use the iCloud version because it will not communicate properly with my clients who use Outlook and who constantly send me appointments. It's important that I be able to accept or decline these appointments in Outlook and the only way I can do this is to use the Outlook data file version. The iCloud version will not communicate back to my clients properly.
I dont' know why you can't just connect the iPad to iTunes on the computer using a USB cable and manually sync with Outlook like I can with my iPhone 4s. This works perfectly for my phone. Stupid that you HAVE to use iCloud with the iPad.
For anyone else reading this, I have found third party software that will copy all appointments from the Outlook data file version (My Calendar) into the iCloud version and allow them to sync with iPad. It is called Code Two Sync for iCloud. You can Google it for reviews, the download link, etc. I downloaded this and installed this and it did exactly what it was supposed to, and all of my appointments showed up on my iPad. However, there were a bunch of duplicates. I'm sure there is some way to fix this.The bigger issue for me is that I have an older computer that is having hard drive issues and the Code Two software crashed Outlook, so I had to uninstall it. However, maybe it will work for other people.

  • Outlook calendar items not visible in Day view - but in Today view!

    Hi All,
    I'm synchronising calendar items from the iPhone to Outlook 2003 (setup with Exchange 2003). After synchronisation the calendar items they first show in the Day/Week/Month view. But after changing the view all items synchronised from th e iPhone disappear! Strangly, in the Outlook Today view the calendar items are there and visible ok.
    Can anybody help please. Thanks!

    Having the same problem -- AppleBruce's fix didn't work for me -- and as I don't want to cross-post, the Topic "*iPhone will not sync to Outlook 2007 after 2.0 & iTunes 7.7 update*!" is also working on this issue. (My post from that Topic is below)
    +Guys - for those of you that can't sync iPhone to Outlook 2003/07, check this out first:+
    +Instead of using the Outlook view "Day/Week/Month," switch to the view, "Active Appointments." I originally thought my sync wasn't working, but all my appointments show in that view ... just not in the view I need and use the most -- the "Day/Week/Month" view!+
    +I've followed AppleBruce's suggestion to the "T" twice, and it doesn't solve this issue (but thanks for that post ... it did clean up my calendar a bit!)+
    +How can the iPhone sync all appointments to Outlook, but they only show up in the "Active Appointments" view??? Has anyone else noticed this?+

  • Calendar items won't synch...help!

    An important person in our company has had to have a new PC installed.  We are using Blackberry Internet Server.  I installed Desktop Manager 4.7 on the new PC, and when I connected the device for the first time, it prompted to update the device software, which I did.  However, when the synch takes place (Outlook 2003), certain Calendar items won't be added to Outlook from the device, and certain Calendar items won't be added to the device from Outlook.
     The old PC was running an older version of both Outlook (2002) and Desktop Manager (not sure which version).  I have gone through the settings but cannot figure out why this is happening.  Everything else seems to be working fine.  I don't want to have to attempt deleting CICALs etc unless I absolutely have to.  The only thing I can think of at this point is to uninstall/reinstall Desktop Manager and hope that resolves the problem.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Your help is much appreciated.

    I don't believe that is true; that Vista won't run Outlook.  Now, I'm saying that from having read through other threads, but I've also read that you do need to install and run the DM using full administrator rights.  That may be your problem.
    Let us know.

  • Missing Outlook calendar items

    Hi,
    Just got the new BB Curve for my birthday and am still getting used to it (I was an old Palm Treo 650 user).  Yesterday, everything synced fine on my BB and Outlook, however today all my Outlook calendar items are missing.  They are on my BB, but not my work Outlook.
    How can I get them back to my Outlook calendar without re-keying?  Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Brian,
    We use MS Outlook Exchange and I was told by a coworker to do the following.  Look at the meeting requests with attachments by size of the file.  Remove any attachments from the meeting requests that caused the file size to be greater than 1MB and save them offline.  This is even for meetings that are in the past.  Once they are all less than 1MB, power your iPhone or iPad down completely.  Turn it back on an viola they should be all back.  It worked for me.
    Good Luck

    On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
    Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

  • How do I fix meeting requests/invitations default to ms outlook calendar and do not show up on iCloud calendar?

    This is frustrating and seems to be a known issue. Regular calendar items work fine but any meeting invitations sent to and accepted on PC running Outlook 2010 with iCloud add in only show up on default (local) calendar. Must add them manually. Also meeting requests sent from same PC configuration are being hijacked by iCal/iCloud feature and prompt the receiver to accept through iCloud interface rather than a regular Outlook email invite, though those meeting do show up on end user's Outlook calendar. And meeting requests sent to a group gives an STMP error. Is there an update or newer version that fixes any of these issues?  I turned off MobileMe add in but doesn't help. We use iCloud and like it because we need the calendar and contact features to sync between the PC and iPhone and iPad, which works fine.

    Outlook will not allow a subscribed calendar to be the default, unless it is an Exchange calendar. You can't change this behaviour unfortunately.

  • Outlook Calendar items added and deleted at same time

    I have several repeating calendar items (like birthdays) in my Outlook calendar.  When I sync, I find that some are added (that I thought were there before) but some show as added and deleted at the same time to my blackberry... any ideas what may be causing the confusion?

    I find myself with the same issue, I just wiped my computer and began syncing and installing all programs back into laptop,now i have noticed that outlook does not add the some events in my calender, for instance, birthdays , one thing that i have noticed is that it only syncs items that have my work email, my other 2 emails are not being synced and those are my blackberry and personal emails.
    my syncing preferences are made to go both way sync ... what seems to be the problem 
    thanks 

  • Duplicate Outlook Calendar Items after upgrade to os5

    Hi,
       I upgraded to os 5 the other day on my Iphone 4. I have an MSN email account with an MSN calendar. I have a lot of daily calendar items which are like reminders. I usually delete that days recurring reminder each day or 2 to keep a clean calendar. After I upgraded I switched to the Cloud. After that sync, I have duplicate calendar items for EVERY item on my calendar back years ago. This includes both  onetime items and recurring (daily ,weekly, yearly) items.
       I found an old post that said to turn off sync calendar and deletethe items off the phone then turn back on. Well, I went into setting>mail>cloud and turned off calendar sync and waited 10 minutes. It deleted the duplicates but kept all the rest. I then went and turned calendar syncback on and all the duplicates showed up again.
       Any ideas on how to get rid of the duplicates?

    I found the answer.
    1. plug the phone in to your computer or wall plug or this does not work!
    2. Go to settings>Icloud> and turn off calander sync. Then delete all items. Now your iphone calendar should be blank.
    3. Now got to Icloud.com and log in using apple ID.
    4. Look at your calendar. On the left edit your calendars and remove all of them. Now your cloud calendar should be blank.
    5. Now go back to your Iphone cloud setting and turn calandar sync on. After awhile your Iphone calander should match your Outlook calnder and your Icloud calander should too.

  • Gmail calendar items are not showing up in calendar app

    I've synced my Gmail account and calendar but only items saved to phone calendar is showing up, All my Gmail calendar items aren't there.
    I seem to have synced everything I need to sync but still nothing shows up. Help!

    I'm having the same issue on my Fascinate.  It started Friday (5/20/11) with most of the items on my Google calendar not showing up on my phone.  Some items are still there (although none from my primary calendar).  I created a new item on Google, and it did show up on the phone.  I had the Froyo update pushed out to me on Saturday morning, but doesn't seem to have made any difference  - good or bad.  I've checked all the account settings, sync on, etc. and everything looks OK.  I can do a manual sync, but that doesn't make things show up either.
    Finally, my mother-in-law has the same phone, and is having the exact same problem starting this weekend as well.  She hasn't gotten the Froyo update - so I don't think that is it.

  • Can´t create an afternoon Outlook calendar item on iCloud

    I am using iCloud to synchronize items with my Mac. Outlook is configured with three calendars, its native calendar tied to my Outlook email address, a second calendar that I do not use tied to a generic email address that I do use, and the iCloud calendar. I am on temporary assignment in Mexico and the standard language setup is the following: OS menus are in English. Outlook menus are in English. Email text editing language is Spanish. Calendar items are in Spanish. The date format is Spanish using a.m. and p.m.
    If I try to create an item in my iCloud calendar from Outlook, it will not allow me to specify a time in the afternoon. Any attempt to do so still results in getting an appointment for the same time in the morning (or, rather, very early morning). For example, I create an appointment for 2 p.m. It ends up being for 2 a.m. If I change it to 3 p.m., it ends up being changed to 3 a.m.
    The workaround is to set up the item in the Outlook calendar for either of the email addresses, then dragging it into the iCloud calendar. Alternatively, the incorrect item in the iCloud calendar can be dragged into the Outlook calendar, adjusted to p.m., and then dragged back into iCloud.
    Naturally, this does not happen on the Mac.
    Is anyone aware of a fix for this?
    The Mac is a MacBook Pro running Mavericks, but this problem really happens independently from the Mac. The version of Windows is Windows 7 Enterprise, 6.1.7601 (SP1). I am using Outlook 2013. iCloud control panel is 3.1.

    Taken from the main screen of the iCloud.com website:
    "To use iCloud, first set it up with your Apple ID on a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion."
    Did you follow this advice?

  • How to save earlier Outlook calendar items when syncing?

    When I sync my new blackberry it prompts me to delete all calendar items from my desktop Outlook from before I had the blackberry.  How can I keep my earlier calendar items in my Outlook on my desktop?  I do not need them on my blackberry, but I do need them on my desktop as a record.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    carsonclark,
    I run BBDTM 4.7.  I don't run blackberry enterprise server. 
    In BBDTM you can go to Synchronization>>Configure>>Synchronization  Select the "Synchronization" botton on the right.
    On the new screen, select "Calendar" and click "Setup..."
    0) which mail application is selected?
    1) do you have "two way sync" selected form the second screen?
    2) do you have "transfer only future items" from the third screen?

  • Add resources to Outlook calendar item

    We use Office 365 for small businesses and have a common problem when creating calendar items and inviting attendees.
    Whenever an appointment is created and attendees invited, the attendees themselves cannot add further resources to the appointment. Is there any way to change settings in Exchange or Outlook that will enable invited attendees to add
    more attendees or resources via the scheduling assistant?

    Hi,
    Based on the description, you want to achieve this goal that the attendees get this appointment and add new attendees to this appointment. If I misunderstood you concern, please let me know.
    Per my knowledge, I'm afraid we can't do this in Exchange 2013. I'm not sure Outlook can work out this issue, you can ask this question in the Outlook forum, you might get a better answer there.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-us/home?forum=outlook
    Assuming here you environment is Exchange 2013, if your environment is Office 365, the Office 365 forum can be a better place to answer your question.

  • Duplicate Outlook Calendar items on my iPad2-PINK & BLUE!

    After I connected to iCloud I got duplicate calendar items - just on my iPad2, not on my PC's Outlook (2010). I now have Pink and Blue duplicate calendar items... Very pretty - but annoying. I see that Pink means from my pc - meaning before using iCloud, and blue meaning iCloud calendar and calendar items entered on the iPad2. Why do I get both? And who do items entered on the iPad2 NOT get synced over to Outlook? This kind of defeats the idea of syncing, if it doesn't go both ways, and it duplicates things.
    Any ideas?

  • Syncing deletes outlook calendar items

    Hello,
    I've looked at past postings and found no resolutions there... PLEASE HELP!
    When I sync my Blackberry curve 8330 with outlook 2007 it wants to delete all calendar items before October.  Fortunately I saw it said '367' deletions before I clicked ok, but it means I cannot sync my calendar with the BB.
    I have XP, Outlook 2007
    Desktop Manager 4.7.0.32
    I need this fixed urgently.  
    BTW, I also changed the setting on the BB calendar to 'keep items forever' and it did not resolve the issue.
    Thank you,
    Shane
