Problems syncing calendar

On my Mac I have 4 calendars & only want to sync 2 of them. So in iTunes I selected 'Sync Calendars, Selected Calendars' then checked 2 of the calendars I wanted to sync (leaving the other 2 unchecked).
But it's added all the calendars to the iPhone.
So in iTunes I checked Calendar under 'Replace information on this iPhone' & synced again. I expected it to wipe the calendars on the iPhone & just add the 2 calendars I selected in iTunes, but it still has all my calendars on the iPhone.
How do I get rid of the unwanted calendars on there?

Try opening isync -> isync preferences in your applications folder. In the isync preferneces there is a button to reset sync history.
Then in ical create a new blank calendar. call it iphone or test.
Open itunes and info tab set the iphone to only sync the new blank calendar and to replace all calendar data on iphone.
this should clear out any events on the iphone.
Now try syncing one of your calendars back to the iphone.
If the calendar will not sync, try moving some of the events to the new test calendar created.
If the events moved to the new calendar sync fine, then there is an issue with that particular calendar.
Hope this helps

IPhone 4S IOS5 problems sync Calendar with Exchange 2003

One of my users is having problems sync Calendar with a brand new iPhone 4S running IOS5 and our Exchange 2003 Server. If an item is updated in Outlook it will not reflect it in the iPhone or viceversa. New items show up in both, only the updates in notes or changing some text in the subject or other elements in one side is not updated in the other side. Any help will be greatly appreciate.

Hi man, I got the same problem with my iPhone, but it has been solved..
First, You need the Outlook 2003 or 2007 only, if you have a earlier version of this it isn't work.
Second, You sould need to create a new PST file whit the Outlook Version 2003 or 2007, the file format must be on Unicode Format, no Outlook (97-2000) format, with this file format the import of calendar doesn't gonna be work.
Third, You now have a PST whit Outlook 2003 or 2007 Version, you need to manually put your events on the calendar, Why? Cause if you just move it on the new calendar it gonna create and old instance of the event not a new instance, That's why iTunes doesn´t sync the calendar.
I done all these and actually I can sync the calendar with my iphone.

Problem syncing calendars.

I have a problem syncing calendars. When I sync my iphone with my home desktop computer, events will transfer from the computer to the phone but not vice-versa. The calendars are in Outlook 2010 and the operating system is Windows 7. All updates in place. I have changed the settings in itunes for all calendars to sync. I have also lost bits of data in contacts such as phone numbers and addresses, or it is possible that duplicates were deleted that contain the additional info. I suspect this is a different issue. I would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
E.L. DuBose

Try;
System Preferences> Mobile Me> Sync>Advanced>Reset Sync Data and make sure the arrows go from your device/computer to the cloud

Problem syncing calendars with MobileMe

I have a weird problem with my 2nd gen iPod touch and MobileMe. I have several iCal calendars on my current generation MacBook Pro, MacPro, and iMac current generation, all of which are in sync with MobileMe. I have no problem syncing anything else with my iPod touch, except birthdays and my personal calendar.
For some reason, all the events in my personal calendar are missing on my iPod touch and so are birthdays. I have been looking through all the options I can think of on iCal, Mac OS X 10.5.6 preferences, and on MobileMe, and the online helps to no avail.
How do I get my personal events and birthdays back on my iPod touch? I tried power cycling it, but that didn't help. I tried resetting it and restoring the settings via iTunes. No go. All my software is current, including the iPod touch. Any ideas on how to fix this issue are welcome.

NP.
This is sort of the generic fix for this type of issue.
We see it on Exchange, Mail, POP, etc.
Affectionately known as the "flush & fill"
Usually works.
Glad it did for you.

Problem syncing calendars: "iPhone disconnected" error message

Everything seems to work as expected except for calendars. Every time I sync, the progress bar in iTunes hangs on "syncing calendars" and eventually I get an error message that says "iTunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". All other items sync fine. Any advice?
15" MBP Mac OS X (10.4.10)

I am having the same problem since last software upgrade for itunes and iphone. Apple phone support had me try the following: 1. delete all calendar events with neverending dates. Didn't fix problem. 2. Reinstall software upgrades. Didn't fix problem. 3. Restore iphone to factory settins and delete all old "corrupted" calendar imports from old Palm calendar. This seemed to work for a day. Then I tried syncing tonight and got same error message. Any body able to help?

New iPad 2 problem syncing calendars

I've got my brand new iPad 2 and the setup went well with the exception of syncing the calendar to the Mac Calendar on my Mac Pro with Snow Leopard. Just the regular Mac Calendar. Tried several options on the iTunes info page to no avail. iPad is hardwired to Mac via the supplied cable. No error msgs or anything - just nothing shows up on the ipad. What should I try to diagnose the problem?
thanks for any help.

iTunes 10.5 and iOS version 5 for the iPad are currently only available to developers as you suspect - so you will need to be a registered developer in order to use them (and get questions answered about them in the developer's forum https://devforums.apple.com/index.jspa). Presumably you got the iPad off a developer, in which case see if he/she can help you - but I'm not sure that an iPad can be downgraded from iOS 5 (?)

Problem syncing Calendar on ALL devices

While my calendar and (any updates) is syncing on my iPad and Macbook Air, it's not syncing on my iPhone. I turned it off and back on later but now there's NOTHING appearing on the calendar on my iPhone. HELP!

Please try the following...
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.

Problems syncing calendars

I have an Iphone, IPAD and a macbook pro. I am having difficulty getting my calendar to sync with ICal on my macbook. Have recently moved to Icloud. The error message I get is as follows:- "HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden” to operation CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation." Can somebody help?

I've already downloaded the update and turned on the iCloud option for the calendar and turned on the "Find my iPhone" option in my iPhone settings. I can't find any information on what to do after that.

Re: problems syncing calendars and contacts to iPhone 4S

Hi everyone,
I am looking for answers on how to sync contacts and calendar events on an iPhone 4S ios 7.
I recently updated my iMac os x to Mavericks and I just realized that you can no longer sync contacts and calendars in iTunes. I have been reading on line for quite a while and it would appear to be a simple thing to do by just going into setting and turning on iCloud, signing in to iCloud and turning everything on for syncing but no luck.
When I log into iCloud in my browser, calendars and contacts are there as well as on my iMac but not on my iPhone.
Any suggestions or links to help me set this up would be really appreciated.

Folks I think I have found a solution to my issue. This post from Beau1k seems to have solved my problem

Hi,
This was happening to me with Outlook 2007 and the iCloud Control Panel (CP). I spent days trying to get it sorted out and as usual once it worked I wasn't completely sure what exactly fixed it.
This is what I did:
1. Ensured Outlook 2007 was completely up to date with Windows Update.
2. Unchecked everything in iCloud CP.
3. Logged out of iCloud CP and when asked I removed all contacts, calendars on my PC.
4. Uninstalled iCloud CP.
5. Redownloaded and reinstalled iCloud CP.
6. Logged into iCloud via iCloud CP.
7. Checked Mail, Contacts and Calendars.
8. Didn't get the error message and now I can see all my contacts and calendar stuff from iCloud in Outlook 2007.
HTH.

Problems syncing iCal btwn iPod Touch and Mac running Snow Leopard (10.6.8)

Last fall I purchased an iPod Touch 32 GB, now running 6.1.2 iOS. I have an iMac 2007 running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). I was looking forward to being able to sync my many iCal calendars and take it on the road with me, so that I could make appointments and have them then be available to me on my Mac. I have synced using usb cable, and can get contacts, music, apps synced just fine: but the Calendar has been rather choosy about what it will sync. Sometimes it will give transfer to the iPod all the appts on one calendar (for example, Medical, which lists all my medical appts) and sometimes it will only give me some of those, with no apparent pattern as to why some are transferring and some are not. Other calendars never sync at all. In the beginning I was able to make an appt on the iPod and have it transfer to the Mac,but it stopped doing that within the first month of purchase.
I have spoken with Apple Care twice on this topic, and both times the conversation ended with the saying they would have to send this up to someone more knowledgeable, who would assuredly get back to me. I have not received any contact from their supervisors/other departments to work on this. The first Apple Tech Support person thought it was due to the new iOS, and assured me they were working out bugs on that, but further updates have not addressed the issue.
Most folks seem to think the best solution is upgrading to Lion/Mountain Lion and syncing through the Cloud. But I *like* Snow Leopard, and what I've heard/seen about the newer operating systems isn't making me want to jump on that bandwagon unless there's really no other way around it. I've even seen some problems syncing calendars through the Cloud.
Has anyone found a solution for this that allows me to continue to run Snow Leopard?
Many thanks.

Problem fixed. I have 3 wireless mice connected to my Mac Mini through a USB bus, and started to get conflicts, disconnected all of them, re-connected my Apple bluetooth mouse and it all snapped back in to place, also didn't help that earlier, my wife caught the cat walking across my keyboard. That problem solved by closing off the office when I'm not there, and cat expelled from the area.
Everything working as normal.

IOS 8.1.1 iPhone 5 won't sync calendars with MacPro

I am using an iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.1, an older MacPro with OS 10.7.5 and iTunes 12.0.1.26
Up until the past 2 weeks I had no problem syncing calendar events between the phone and computer. Now my memory become foggy, I either downloaded the latest version of iTunes or the phone's iOS and ever since I cannot sync my calendars. My music syncs fine when I make changes to the playlists.
I've chek'd thru the discussions on similar items here in the discussion group but nothing seems to help.
Anyone with suggestions or a fix?
Thanks

MobilMe can't sync Calendar

I am having problems syncing Calendar with Iphone and Mac via MobilMe. The same message comes back: "make sure Calendar has valid data, reset Calendar in Preferences and try again". Over and over but does not sync. Contacts syncs fine. Anybody else seen this problem?

I updated the new iphone software on my 2G phone and had no problem with iCal syncing/MobilMe syncing. When I upgraded to the 3G phone, the first restore from the back-up of my 2G phone, my iphone calendars were not synching properly with MobilMe. I tried and tried refreshing/resyncing and finally I just restored the 3G phone again and my calendars finally synced properly with MobilMe.

My problem - when syncing and error messages comes up: iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data." I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing. What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted : a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone. I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them. It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
Thanks for pointing me to the right article.
