Serious duplication of calendar entries!

I am having serious problems with multiple duplications on my iPad and iPhone, some birthdays now appearing 120 times! Can anyone please tell me how to stop this happening before I go completely mad!
Thanks!

I am having the same problem, every time I sync my phone, all my calendar entries on my I Phone are duplicated. I am a Windows XP pro user. Any help will be appreciated.

Duplication of calendar entries

Hi there from Downunder:
I find that, when I sync my iPhone with my Mac, I get a pile of duplicated entries in the Entourage calendar from the iPhone... entries that I previously input on the Mac. Although input with a category, the category is lost on the duplicated entry.
Is there a way I can prevent this happening?

Calendar entry duplication problem

Using E72 and latest version of OVI Suite. When syncing' my phone wirelessly with the laptop, (running Outlook 2010), I end up with duplicate calendar entries on the laptop. Needless to say I have checked settings and cannot figure out why this should be happening. Does anyone know why this might be happening?
Many thanks

IOS upgrade does it again. It trashes my old calendar entries

I have come to rely on the feature in the iOS upgrade that it will trash my old calendar entries. Upgrading to iOS 4 was no exception. It changed start and end times, repeat information, adds entries,combined multiple repeating entries into 1 even though they had different start and end dates and information in the entry and does a whole lot of other nifty stuff. I have reported this with every upgrade and now I realize that Apple does not care what happens to someone's calendar. This IPhone is being synch'd with a Mac so its an apples to apples (sorry for the pun) process.
I have a whole lot of issues with the calendar program on the IPhone. This is the one of the most annoying. The other is if you have parents in the 80's and you set birthdays. They do not show up on your IPhone. They show fine on the Mac but I guess the IPhone does not think your parent's birthday's are important enough to display. I am slowly getting to the point of regretting that I converted to the IPhone. For all of the bells and whistles, when a device cannot do the simplest tasks it becomes an annoyance. Oh yes this is a 3G and not a new phone. I do not intend to spend money until I see that Apple starts to take their customers seriously. They are slowly becoming Microsoft and that is the attitude that I thought I was getting away from.

You have options in the Organizer Tab for Calendar by clicking on Configure. From there, there you can choose to sync ALL calendar entries. This should be a resolution. Additionally, there are options to further control what syncs by clicking on the advanced button.
If you want to control how much calendar data remains on your mobile consider...
I have had problems with Blackberry's handling of appts in the past where - when an appt is deemed to be removed from the mobile device - it removed it also from Outlook! This should NEVER be - but WAS. As a result it is a better 'policy' to simply have your BB sync ALL appts and control how much will remain on your phone by using Outlook's archiving feature. When the calendar items do move to your archive, then you will see appts to be deleted from your phone but they will just be "older" appts according to what you have setup.
And regardless - before you do any new sync or major changes that may react unexpectedly...
Make a backup of your Outlook file just in case!!
Hope this helps.

I have 2 iPads with the same log in and password details. How do I make them independent of each other so that contacts and calendar entries are not duplicated

I have 2 iPads. When gifting one to my wife I did not change the log in and security details. Consequently any contacts and calendar entries are duplicated. How do I make the iPads independent so that the foregoing duplications are eliminated?
Thank you

The logins on the iPads, for example the iTunes store can be the same if you share an iTunes account, this will not effect the Contacts/Calendars unless you are using iCloud to sync Calendar/Contacts in which case just setup a new iCloud account for your Wife and change the iCloud settings on her iPad to this new account.
Unfortunately the contacts if syncing with your computer will be the same as it can only sync from the given contacts on your computer.
You can use a different login to the computer for your wife and she can then have her own contacts.
If your Contacts application on your compuer has Categories/Grouping you can tell iTunes to sync certain Categories/Groups to each iPad, that way splitting up the contacts on your computer for each iPad.
The same is true for the Calendar if you only have the one calendar it will sync it for both of you, the iPad settings in iTunes has the option to pick a Calendar if you have more then one.
One option is to use an online calendar such as Google Calendar and sync to and from it with your iPad that way the Calendars would be individual.

Duplicate Entourage calendar entries when syncing with 1.0.4

Here we go again... I was reasonably happy with the previous BB DM - Mac, v. 1.0.3 (build 19?).... but had to update it to the newest version to install the updates to my BB Curve 8530. Now when I sync with my MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard), the calendar entries in Entourage double. I had this duplication problem a while ago and now JUST sync with Entourage, not with iCal too. How can I correct this duplication?

The duplication has stopped but here's a new problem: When I add recurring events to my Entourage calendar, they don't sync to my BB. The other direction works OK with recurring events. Anyone know why this happens, or how to work around (other than only add recurring events to my BB)??
Thanks,

Iphone Calendar Entries don't show up on Mobile Me

This is new problem - I think it started after I entered the latest ITunes update and MAC OS X (10.6.6)
When I make calendar entries on Mobile Me or ICal, they automatically show up on my IPhone. However, it doesn't work the other way around. I have made calendar entries on my phone and they don't appear on Mobile Me or ICal.
Please HELP!

Syncing Calendar with MobileMe is bi-directional, so if entries get from MobileMe to the phone, entries made on the phone should get to MobileMe (and to your laptop).
The only time I've seen your problem is with a jailbroken phone. Is that the case here? (Still using iOS 4.2...)

Z10 calendar entries can't be deleted

On getting my Z10 I performed a device swop using Blackberry Link from from Blackberry 9860 running OS 7.1.
It was a virtual failure, only copying a few pieces of data, no contacts at all and only a few calendar entries, which were from 2011. On my Z10 I delete these old entries, some of which are recurring ones, only to find that when I restart my phone they all return. I have tried battery pulls and editing them so they no longer are recurring entries but nothing works. I start the phone in the morning and they all return.
Can anyone help?

Hey Joolone,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
Are these calendar entries synchronized with any email accounts? Like Gmail, Yahoo or Hotmail?
If they are, I would suggest turning off Wireless synchronization and then remove the calendar entries and test.
Go to Setting>Accounts and delete the calendar account.
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

Duplicate calendar entries on iPhone, but not in iCal (NOT using mobile.me)

Hi,
I've had a problem for a while (since iOS 3) where I get duplicate events on the iPhone (3GS and 4). It seems to happen for events that have been edited/deleted - they are not edited on the phone, rather a duplicate is made. It seems as if what is supposed to happen is iTunes deletes the old one, then creates a new one, only the old one is not being deleted. This is very annoying, especially for recurring events that get edited several times!
I have found several posts about duplicate contacts and calendar entries but they all seem to be pointing to a conflict with mobile.me which I do not use. This is a simple sync between iCal and iPhone using iTunes.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?

I used to have this issue on my original iPhone (the 2G from 2007). You have to reset your sync data. This should help you; http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627?viewlocale=en_US BUT don't shoot the messenger on this as I did a quick Google search.

I did a software upgrade to IOS6 and my Iphone4S is now unable to update. Do I lose all my contacts and calendar entries when I restore?

You should be syncing all your contacts and calendars with your computer, either via iCloud or iTunes, so it is easy to re-sync them back to the phone after you restore.

After upgrading to iOS 5, I lost my contacts, calendar entries, and Notes on my iPhone 3GS (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

Yikes! After upgrading my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5, I lost my Contacts, calendar entries, and Notes (100+) on my iPhone (3 years old). How do I retrieve them? My last backup/sync to iTunes acct was Sept 18 but yesterday's backup bombed due to lack of space on my C: drive.

This happened to me too but it was really all there. Go to your calendar, click on calendar in the upper left hand corner, click on show all calendars, click done in the right upper corner. Everything should show up!!!
I was super thrilled. Hope this works for you!!

Installing Maverick on my Mac lost almost all of the calendar entries. They are still on my iPhone and new entries move freely to both devices via iCloud. How do I get the entries from my iPhone to iCloud without losing them from iPhone?

Like many others after I installed Maverick I found that all the calendar history has been lost and most of the forward info has also been lost. Also in order to get calendar, contacts and notes to sync with the iPhone I have had to move to iCloud. Contacts and notes sync fine. new calendar entries sync ok. My iPhone has all the calendar entries that were on the Mac before I installed Maverick. So far iCloud has not overwritten them nor have they synced onto iCloud.
How can I get all the entries from my iPhone onto iCloud, without losing the only copy of my calendar from my iPhone?
Thanks Apple for deciding to take over my privacy. I do not want this data stored on a US based server. Fortunately Mail still syncs via my own email provider. I guess Apple will find a way to stop that soon too!

Greetings Nefertiti72,
It seems you are experiencing an issue with contact syncing and management. It seems you've removed an email account which contained a number of contacts that are not associated with your iCloud account. I have linked to a knowledge base article which provides more information about iCloud contacts syncing:
Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
Learn what to do if you’re having issues using iCloud Contacts. For example, you might make changes to Contacts that don't update across all of your devices.
You may want to consider importing the contacts from the email account you removed. You can do it easily by following the steps in this article:
iCloud: Import a vCard
You can import an electronic business card, also called a vCard, into iCloud Contacts. If the vCard contains contact information for more than one person, each contact becomes a separate entry.
In iCloud Contacts, choose Import vCard from the Action pop-up menu , which appears at the bottom of the All Contacts list or a list of group contacts
Select a vCard to import.
The contacts from the vCard are added to the All Contacts group in Contacts. You can add the contacts to any other group by dragging them to the desired group.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Bobby_D

How can i swap the content such as messages, calendar entries, apps and app data between two iphone 4s?

I have a Iphone 4s and my friend has one too and we want to switch phones but do not want to lose any data or message or calendar entries, we want the same exact content avaliable in my phone swapped to his and his to mine. how can this be done?

Back up your phones onto your respective computers with iTunes, swap phones, Reset them and when you connect it to iTunes, instead of "Set up as a new iPhone", click on restore from back up

Serious duplication of calendar entries!
