Problems with Icloud calendar on multiple devices

my calendar is not working correctly when I put an event on my ipad it dissapears but on my computer the event shows up numerous times. Also on my computer I am having trouble with the calendar going to the correct date on i cloud it keeps moving to a different date.

Thank you paulfromstpeters !
I have the same problem!
I don't remember what I exactly did, but after some changes on a repeted event (I think I deleted some recurrens), it doesn't appear anymore on the iCloud and on the iPod (but correctly on the MacBook).

Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8

Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8
I would like to warn users of a couple of problems I have encountered recently with Calendar. I have been in touch with Apple phone support about this and after 3-4 hours on the phone they have arranged to call back tomorrow. A colleague informed me yesterday he has experienced exactly the same problem as described in point 1. below. Looks like a software glitch – I hope it can be fixed quickly.
1. Deletion of single entry in a repeated event results in loss of display of all related events in iCloud Calendar but not on devices
Deletion of a single entry from a repeating event (after correctly selecting to delete only the single event and not to delete all future events) results in failure to display all of the related events in iCloud but with retention of the related events on devices such as iPhone and iCal on a computer.
There have been occasions, very briefly, that the events so affected display correctly on iCloud, only to disappear from the screen within about a second of opening the page in Calendar.
Deletion of the relevant account in iCal (on the computer) and its subsequent reinstallation results in correct display of the calendar in iCal, but persisting failure to display the calendar entries correctly in iCloud. This appears to ONLY effect repeated entries in which one of the repeated entries has been subsequently deleted after the creation of the repeating event. Single entries, or repeated entries that have not been modified, do not appear to be affected.
This problem is consistently occurring regardless of whether the repeated entry is set to end “never”, “after number of times” or “on date”.
My conclusion is, there is a problem with the display of the repeated events in iCloud (?an HTML coding issue) but that the events are being correctly saved in the calendar database.
2. Random dropout in “repeat” function for new events and/or “repeat” function in edit of existing event
In the course of investigating problem 1, I have discovered that the pop-up menu in iCloud Calendar that allows new events to be created or old events to be edited apparently randomly has the repeat event function missing in the pop up menu – making it impossible to create a repeating event from a new entry or to edit an existing event for the repeat function. All other functions appear to be preserved in the affected pop-up.
This problem is also apparent in iCal – i.e., it is not restricted to the web version of Calendar. I have not had the time or the energy to investigate this in detail. At first glance, it is a random error.
Solution: Apple needs to debug this software

Thank you paulfromstpeters !

Sharing multiple iCloud calendars across multiple devices

My wife and I have different apple ids (plus I have a work one too). Is there any way we can view each other's icloud calendars on all our iPads and iPhones? If someone can help that would be great - thanks.

I made a Calendar named "Family" on my iPhone.
I shared this Calendar by adding person. (My wife's email).
My wife accept it and now we have two Calendars on each phone. The "personal" one and the "Family".
Every time I make a new event I have to decide to save on mine or family calendar. My Calendar is the default calendar so if I want to add an event on this I don't have to change anything. But if I want to add an event in the Family calendar I have to change the calendar to family. (It's below the alerts fields).
My wife using her Calendar rarely so she setup the Family as default. (Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Calendars section>Default Account>Family.
So you don't have to send invitations every time. Just add an event in the right Calendar.
Hope this helped. Sorry for my English

Handling contacts with iCloud, one person, multiple devices. Help?

Hi, and thanks for your help.
I want to use iCloud to keep my contacts synced across my iphone 4s, my iPad 2 and, of course, icloud.com.
I just turned on iCloud on the iPhone 4s and performed a a backup, and now all of the 300 contacts from the iPhone are showing up on icloud.com. Great, as expected.
But now I want to set up iCloud on my iPad as well. It has 400 contacts, which are mostly the same as those on my iPhone but with about 100 additional contacts that aren't on my iPhone.
My questions:
What will happen when I "flip the switch" to turn on iCloud on the iPad?
How will the additional contacts be handled?
Will the contacts on the iPad be wiped out and replaced with those now stored on iCloud.com (which would cause me to lose the 100 additional contacts)?
Will duplicate contacts be created so that no contacts are lost (but forcing me to delete 300 duplicate entries)?
If I have the same contact on both devices but with slight differences (e.g., one has an extra phone number), what will happen with the differences? Will one be overriden, or will they be treated as separate contacts?
Thanks for your answers!
jbend

No, it will not wipped out your contact but add to it. If you're not sure, you can always do a back up first.
As long as you always used the same Apple ID in both iDevices, everything should be fine.

Problems with iMessage syncing to multiple devices after update

After updating to iOS 6.1.3 & OS 10.8.3 I can no longer send/receive iMessages from my cellular number. iMessage won't sync between phone & computer. Thoughts?

Re: iMessage iMessage Waiting for activation Help

Don't waste time with all of that crap....
Just update your date/time settings:
Settings
> General
>> Date & Time
>>> Set Automatically: Slide "ON"...If it's already on, then slide it off, chill for a bit (maybe restart it), then slide it back on.
I literally* just did this, saw a link for this thread, and figured i'd come see if it worked for you. Mine hasn't worked since early January and for a while I wasn't getting texts from some other iPhone users either.
I have an iPhone 4, but I assume it will still work for you. I also have iOS 5.1 (just updated after plugging into iTunes on my mac), so that may make a difference, but I think it's just a network thing. When you disable "Set Automatically" for time, I figure that you are also denying access to a part of the network that is necessary for iMessage.
**EDIT**
I also forgot to mention that, despite Apple's excluvisity, you still need to rely on an internet connection to use this little feature. After you activate, it will even have an option to send as a regular text (SMS) when iMessage isn't available (when there is no or very little internet). I'm assuming that sliding to "no" will just save the message until you connect again.

Multiple issues with iCloud calendar, notes, and iDevices

So many issues... where to begin?
Tonight I created a new note entry on my iPad. We had a birthday party for our twins yesterday, and as we opened the presents tonight, I logged who gave us what so my wife and I can write thank-you letters and credit the right people for the right gifts. I e-mailed the note (straight from the Notes app) to my wife to be sure she had a copy of it, and it sent me a CC: automatically per my e-mail setup.
That was a few hours ago. as of now, I have 137 copies of that e-mail in my in-box and they're still coming.
A few weeks ago, when I finally got my new iMac (previously I was on a G5 tower that was dying and, of course, unable to upgrade to an OS X capable of supporting iCloud... since I knew my me.com account would be closing soon, I bit the bullet and bought new hardware to support iCloud), I set up my iPad (first-gen model with latest supported iOS) and my wife's iPhone (iPhone 4 with latest supported iOS) to use iCloud with my account so we could continue to share calendars, etc. As much as I resented iCloud being forced on me just when I finally got me.com mostly working, I did like the idea of push-updates to calendars. With twin toddlers, my wife was regularing booking playdates and other activities which affected my schedule, so live syncing of our calendars sounded like a good idea at the time. Nevertheless, all I got was headaches from iCloud ever since setting it up:
We each now have double and triple calendar entries.
Some of her Notes disappear on her after a iPhone sync on the iMac.
Push notifications and calendar updates have never once worked. In fact, when entering items on what should be our iCloud calendar on one device or another, many items NEVER synced, over the air OR in iCal.
I can now no longer sync to my work calendar, which is in iCal on my work computer, a Mac Pro tower not yet on an OS X version capable of iCloud syncinc (for what that's worth). I have no control over updates to my MacOS at work, and feel as though it wouldn't matter if I did because live updates don't work for me anyway. But now I have had to re-enter a year's worth of meetings, work holidays, paydays, and late-night bookings, previously only on my Work calendar but once syncable to home, on my home calendar. Manually.
Oh, by the way, since I started typing this, my e-mailed Note from earlier tonight has continued to flood into my mailbox and now I'm up over 150 copies and they're STILL flooding in. I can see them piling up.
Rhetorically, why does iCloud suck so much? Literally, seeking an answer: what, if anything, am I doing wrong... and what can I do to make it work properly?
I feel like I did due dilligence, reading up on how to set things up right. I'm no stranger to Apple's way of doing things - I've been a Mac user since the SE/30 days. But while MobileMe and me.com merely frazzled me, iCloud is seriously messing up my life. I hate it and I hate being forced to use it in order to take full advantage of my hardware. The concept is great but I find that, in practice, it's an awful system (at least so far - hopefully, it will improve).
Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.

By anychance did you or your wife use any forwarding options under mobile me.

Problem with subscribed calendars

Hi all, I have a problem with subscribed calendars and a app that I use the developer says the problem is with apple so I thought I would ask here.
I use Roster Buster to decode my airline roster which is then available as a calendar for me to subscribe to, this all works very well but as soon as I subscribe to my wife's roster buster calendar the problems start. Every time I enter calendar all events are there for both my wife's flights as well as my own but as soon as calendar refreshes all events change to the same so we both have the same flights ( either all my flights or my wife's ) so I have to refresh all calendars again to overcome this.
This only happens on the iPad and only since ios7 works fine on the iPhone 5.
Any ideas ?
Regards Stuart.

I've got what i think is a pretty good fix to this.
subscribing to calandars via iCal on your Mac is the way to go. you can subscribe, set the colour and tell it to push via iCloud to your iOS devices. they come through with the correct colour and stay that way.
all good
however, i can't seem to delete the subscribed calandars i have on my iPhone. every time i delete the subscription, they just come back in again! quite annoying, but at least you can untick it so that it doesn't show up. which it would go away for good though.
much happier now i'm controlling everything through iCal and iCloud

With iCloud activated on iOS devices, how do I manage syncing with iTunes?

Guess it's time to take a class at the Apple Store (there's an app for that)
Two Questions:
Question 1
I have turned on iCloud in my iPad and iPhone5 for contacts, calendars, reminders, Safari, Passbook (iPhone only), and Find my iPhone/iPad.
I am not using iCloud for backups, email or photo stream because for many reasons I choose to avoid WiFi.In the iPhone User guide (page 57) it says, "if you use iCloud to store your contacts, calendars.....don't also sync them to your device using iTunes."
When I set up the devices in iTunes, i checked "Automatically sync contacts, calendrs, bnookmarks, notes and email." Now I want to modify that setup. However, if I simply plug in the devices to the computer I'm going to get an automatic sync and I understand that can unnecessarily duplicate data.
How to resolve this?
Can I just turn OFF the iCloud features on each device, attach the device to the computer, and reconfigure iTunes to stop the auto-sync of the contacts, etc.? Then after ejecting the device, I turn the iCloud features back ON?
Question 2
I've been downloading apps, music, and books in iTunes and then syncing them to my devices. How does this change with iCloud?
On each device I've gone into Settings-Store and activated Automatic downloads of Music, Apps, Books.
Now, when I go to my PC and log in to iTunes to order an app, book, music, do I still have to attach each device to the computer in order to obtain the downloads?
What about apps I obtain directly from a device?

For your first issue, without connecting your iPad open iTunes on your computer and go to Preferences and on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically". This will disable automatic syncing when you connect your iPad, allowing you to change your settings without syncing. Next, connect your iPad, click on the name of your iPad on the left side of iTunes and to to the Info tab and uncheck the data you no longer want to sync with iTunes (such as contacts and calendars). When done making you changes, click Apply at the bottom (this will sync your phone with the new settings). If you prefer, you can then go back to iTunes preferences and re-enable automatic syncing.
You will continue to sync your iTunes media such as music and apps with iTunes as you did before. These are not stored or synced with iCloud (although you can redownload media purchased from the iTuens and app stores in the future if you need to; however, this has nothing to do with your iCloud account).
If you have enabled automatic downloads for your Apple ID, when you purchase apps, music or books in iTunes using this Apple ID it will automatically be downloaded to your iPad. If you purchase them on your iPad, they will be automatically added to your iTunes library when you sync your iPad.

Problem with different calendars under Mountain Lion

I upgraded recently from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion and experiencing an annoying problem with the calendars "On My Mac" (I am using a MacBook Pro from mid 2009). With iCal under Snow Leopard I had seven calendars - Meetings, Performances, Family, etc. with different colors. After the switch to Mountain Lion these categories aren't maintained properly. Four of them have been seemingly merged into two, so that for example an event can't be categorized as "Family" but gets shifted automatically to "Meetings" (both calendars stay checked in the editing panel, but only one "sticks"). So I have three calendars I can use and a four I can't.
If I try to add a new calendar it appears in the list, but no event can be assigned to it.
Is there a limit to the number of calendars one can have?
I don't use iCloud, so there is no issue there.
I have one Google calendar (a work schedule I have subscribed to ) which also works with no problems.
Any ideas?

Same problem when reseted the PRAM.
I read some Chinese Web , Many people got the same problem after upgrade to mountain lion

Sync problems with iCloud + Exchange

Since 3-4 weeks the email/calendar synchronization with my iPhone's (3GS and 4S) and iPad 2 is nor working properly any more,
I have in parallel installed an iCloud account for private and an Exchange account for business use.
Only if I turn the iPhones/iPad off and on it syncs for one time. After that the email app always shows the turning wheel and "Receiving emails" and does nothing more at all.
As soon as I delete my iCloud account on the iPhone's/iPad the Exchange account works perfect again without any problems. As soon as I reinstall iCloud all email/calendar sync for Exchange and iCloud is dead again.
So there must be a problem with the iCloud sync which also affects the Exchange sync.
As long as I used my Exchange account together with Gmail I had no problems at all.
Hopefully Apple fixes this problem with iCloud within the next days otherwise I have to go to Google back again.
Any people out there with the same problem?

I have boiled the problem down to just the icloud contacts. If I leave them off everything is fine when I turn them on my exchange accounts will not update.

Hello, I have a problem with the keyboard of the device, some of the keys do not respond. What can I do? Amit

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 (if you can)
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
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ask your question.How to sync ical 3 with icloud calendar

How to sync ical 3 with icloud calendar?

And the additional problem is that once you give in and go iCloud, no rep will tell you there are iCloud limits on iCal's size, so that if you're calendar is say 10 years old, with 10 events per day, and there's a 25K event limit, it won't work, even if you buy all the storage in the world. Which means that's syncing is OVER.
So far I've tried three calendar alts: Fantastical (rated one of the top iCal alts); Pocket Informant (allegedly capable of superpowers); and Calendars. Not a single one is able to do the one simple task of
1) integrating an ical ics file,
2) placing a calendar program on the desktop and the iPhone
3) keeping them both in sync.
And Google's cloud has even more restrictions than iCloud, and for frack's sake why can't I keep a calendar off the net?
This is really getting to annoy me. Chelsea, a tech support supervisor, offered that if I pay $99/year I can become a developer and get the next beta iTunes which will allegedly offer local syncing. Great.
