Syncing New Yahoo Calendar Doesn't Work

Yahoo has a new calendar. Don't know if it is permanent or just a test. However, Calendar syncing does not work with Desktop Software 6.0.0.43. The error is "Lost connection to Yahoo server". I suspect the URL for the calendar has changed. Any help appreciated.

They were vague when I contacted Yahoo customer support. The following was the response I received from them:
Hello Dave,
Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Calendar.
I understand you would like to sync your Yahoo! Calendar with the
BlackBerry device. Let me address you with this.
Yes, there are few smaller features of Old Yahoo! Calendar which are yet
to be supported in All-New Yahoo! Calendar. We are working on many of
these features as we speak and should be able to bring them to you in
All-New Yahoo! Calendar soon along with other more exciting features!
Some of the features that have been removed from All-New Yahoo! Calendar
are:
* Syncing with MS Outlook: You may have been using Yahoo! Autosync or
Intellisync for syncing your Yahoo! Calendar with MS Outlook. These
tools are not supported with All-New Yahoo! Calendar.
* With All-New Yahoo! Calendar, you will not be able to sync with
BlackBerry Desktop.
* Yahoo! Groups Calendars are not visible inside Yahoo! Calendar as of
now. Though it is still available directly in the Yahoo! Groups
interface.
* Finance and Weather Guides are not supported yet.
* Event Types and Birthday and Anniversary Symbols are called Stickers
now.
* Calendar Plug-in in Yahoo! Messenger does not work with All-New Yahoo!
Calendar.
* Calendar from Yahoo! Widgets is not available with All-New Yahoo!
Calendar.
I hope this addresses your issue. If you need further assistance, please
contact us.
Thank you again for contacting Yahoo! Calendar.
Regards,

I have an iPhone and when I got it, I had a Toshiba laptop. Now I have a MacBook Pro, but when I try to wi-fi sync my iphone and new computer, it doesn't work because on my iphone it is still trying to sync with my old computer. How I can fix this?

Move the content from the old computer to the new computer.
Sync the iPhone via cable to the new computer and enable Wi-Fi syncing.
It should now be possible to sync via Wi-Fi to the new computer.

Anyone notice the Calendar doesn't work properly in the IOS 5? Can't put a new event in there and can't change calendars

I just updated to IOS 5 and now the calendar doesn't work properly. Can't enter a new event or change Calendars. Nothing updates from the Remiders either. Anyone have an answer as to what may be wrong?

My new iPhone 4 doesn't work at all

You are definitely not alone with your issues. I'm on my second iPhone 4 unit, and am still having the same problems. I've had proximity sensor insanity, battery draining after 8 hours of stand-by (NO USE, just sleeping) to the point that my phone goes into a coma and has to be plugged in to be revived, the grip of death dropping calls....
But the single most irritating and infuriating problem is the signal strength/reception fluctuation. I share a house with two iPhone 3Gs users, and I had an original silverback iphone until July 2010. They all work fantastically well with no issues when I'm at home (where I am just about 24/7, since I work from home). *_My new iPhone 4 doesn't work at all.*_. Signal strength is all over the place. I did a test where I sat watching the bars showing signal strength for five minutes. In that time, I saw it switch from E (edge?) with full bars to 3G with full bars to 3G with 1 bar to 2 bars to 4 bars to 1 bar to "Searching." Then back to 3G, with degradation of bars from 3 to none, then E network appears again, this time with full strength. This all with the phone sitting on a table, not being touched by human hands.
It seems that my iPhone is constantly switching actual physical networks, and as a result signal strength is all over the place from one 30 second period of time to the next. This drains the battery like crazy, and means that all incoming calls go to voicemail--usually without my phone ever ringing.
The 3G phones in my house work great. The 1st G iPhone I have had since the week it came out worked great (though its battery doesn't hold much of a charge anymore, after three years). On my new IP4, games are awesome. The videos and photos are amazingly clear and high quality, and editing on the phone is out of sight. iPhone Apps rule. MobileMe syncs my contacts quickly and easy. The only thing I love more than the iP4 features is my iPad--it rocks.
Everything works on my IP4 at home BUT THE ACTUAL TELEPHONE FUNCTIONS. This is unacceptable. In late August, after two weeks in which I had 4 minutes of phone use, the nice folks at the Apple store switched me to a new phone, no questions asked. The phone worked so much better, I could send texts and place calls most of the time (this was now the first part of September)...except that now that I was using my IP4 to make phone calls, I started having a problem with the proximity sensor during those calls. I'd be talking and my cheek would mute the phone, turn on speaker, open contacts and edit info (with gobbledygook), and of course, hang up on people.
So around Sept. 18 I was told by Apple phone support to update to iOS 4.2, restore as new, and do two complete power up and drain down cycles. This would fix the proximity sensor and any other issues.
Well, I would love to see if iOS 4.2 actually did fix the PS, but I can't get the signal strength to stabilize long enough to have an actual phone conversation. I'm back to watching the signal strength go up and down at random (with me touching/holding it carefully to avoid grip of death, and also when I leave phone on the table with screen lock off --no touching). It is back to switching between E network and 3G and varying strengths of wi-fi from my home network. This eats up battery from 100% to low enough to turn off in under 10 hours of standby (usually 6-7). Essentially, my IP4 is back to being unusable as a phone.
So I did another long, involved call to Apple tech support on 9/18. They tell me that I have to turn off wi-fi, turn off 3G, turn off push/fetch and notifications, shut all apps (no multi-tasking) and do everything but switch my phone to airplane mode--and see if the battery holds up for 24 hours in standby. If that didn't work, I should restore from new, but not load any contacts or network or data or anything--just leave it as it would be out of the box new.
As a test, I turned everything off as advised: 3G, wi-fi, push, etc. Now my battery life is back to normal, where I can have the IP4 on stand-by for up to two full days before needing a recharge. Fabulous. BUT IT'S NOT A SMART PHONE if I have to turn off 3G, turn off wireless, and not use email push and so forth.
I'm so frustrated I could scream. I'm quickly coming to the conclusion that there is a significant flaw in the new iPhone. Or perhaps it is just an issue for iPhone 4 users in areas where the signal strength is marginal, or where there are two types of overlapping network coverage (E and 3G in my case). I know that the networks themselves are in good condition--though I'm in a semi-rural area, the state capital is 4 miles away, and I know they have a new tower and good coverage for the politicians and power brokers around town. The phone coverage area I live in has Edge network in the south part of the network area and 3G in the north part, which is the state capital. I'm right in between. Could this be the problem? AT&T says no, it's Apple's fault.

So what to do besides complain? Troubleshoot?
I just wonder if all of us who have had chronic signal strength and "Searching for network" issues that totally drain the battery might have something in common, despite being all over the world? I'm using wi-fi 95% of the time, and live in a semi-rural area with overlapping networks run by same carrier. Apple folks hinted that maybe in my area the network usage is nearing capacity (resulting in getting kicked off of 3G and down to E as new calls are placed that strain capacity). They also hinted there could be interference from mountains or other objects. But here's the thing--3G phones work fine, and my IP4 works fine when I'm away from home, usually in the capital city on strong 3G network. (When I say "works fine I mean the signal is good and calls go through, I haven't tested battery drain away from home yet).
I have to conclude that the problem is the IP4 itself--something about the hardware or the software (namely, the way it connects to the phone network) is horribly wrong. Other folks who live in urban areas or with strong networks that (likely) aren't over-utilized don't seem to have this issue. After reading through these pages, it also seems the wi-fi may be a major culprit in draining the battery and in varying signal strength (this is from Apple phone support, which said that varying signal strength and the constant pinging off the home wi-fi is creating a "power struggle" and keeping the phone constantly looking for the best connection option). Mind you, 3G iphones on the same home network have no problems whatsoever.
So while I'm not a technical expert, it seems like the problem HAS to lie in the differences in the way the IP4 connects to the cellular and/or wi-fi network. And since the connection/signal strength problem was "resolved" on my replacement phone, but then "broken" again by the software update of iOS 4.2, I'm leaning toward this being a software issue. I've offered to help Apple troubleshoot, and I'm trying to be patient--because the IP4 is a work of art and I've never had an issue with an Apple product before. But all they want me to do is restore, restore, reload, restore, and then drive 1 hour to the nearest Apple store (in Reno, NV) and get a new phone...and start the whole process over again. I don't have time for this, I need my phone back.
I'm this close to trading in my beautiful but flawed IP4 for a 3G. Maybe I should just get a new battery for my original iPhone from 2007?
I understand that Apple can't test for every possible variable of use all over the world, but they don't even seem to acknowledge that they have a problem with the IP4 that will not be resolved by replacing it with a new unit. They want me to believe it's a fluke, or it's just me...but I've been combing these threads and see a lot of people reporting the same issues I am--battery drain and wildly fluctuating signal strength issues, wi-fi problems, and dropped calls. Can't someone get on this? Because otherwise Apple is going to have to admit that their IP4 is not a good solution for people who live in areas of less than perfect signal strength or use wifi or whatever demonic combo I have in my home/work setting.
Or people will have to do what I have done--if you who want the cool IP4 non-phone features, you will have to dumb down your IP4 in order to have it be even moderately useful as *a phone.* For $599 I expected better.
My (temporary) workaround?
To spare the battery:
*Turn off wi-fi (which *****, because now I have to burn minutes when I'm at work using the email, downloads, safari, etc--and it's E network, so it's SLLOOOOOOOW)
*turn off push and fetch, have mail get new messages manually
*turn off data roaming
To keep the signal somewhat stable (making it easier to complete calls and spare battery)
*Turn off 3G (this leaves me on E network--fabulous, I had that with my 3 year old iPhone)
*grip IP4 between two fingers placed at the top of the phone, away from death zone. Tough for us lefty phone users.
*pray the free bumper will a) come soon and b) help. I'm not optimistic.
To keep proximity sensor from going nuts and dropping calls, muting, turning on speaker etc:
*use headset or bluetooth (unless you are also having one of the known bluetooth issues!)
*keep phone pressed to one ear and don't move it a millimeter. Don't shift sides, don't hold phone with your shoulder, just keep it to one ear and talk fast).
I'm about out of patience. I understand that lots of folks have and love their IP4s. I'd love to be one of those people. I'm open to suggestions and have spent many hours on phone with tech support, restoring my phone, reloading data and apps--there has to be a better way.
Sorry for the thread-jacking, but someone from Apple has got to be following these threads--help us!

Organiser sync with Yahoo calendar/task list/memo pad/ addressbook

Hi,
I have recently bought a Blackberry Curve 8520.
My problem is connecting to yahoo calendar/task list/memo pad/ addressbook
Each time I try to syncronise I get back the message "connection to the yahoo server was lost"
I am using the lastest version of the yahoo and blackberry software. I am sure I am not the only user trying to sync PCand Blackberry informantion!!
Help to resolve this issue would be much appreciated.
Many thanks DBF

Someone suggested that I switch to syncing to/with Google calendar ... but I don't know how to do that since it's not in the list of options that come up when I say I want to configure sync settings. Do you know how to do that?
I received a cryptic email response from Yahoo saying they no longer support syncing with Yahoo calendar ... but implying that they may still be working on it and the option may start working again if they get a solution. I responded that I'd like to know if they fix the problem instead of having to try every few days, but got no response to that request.
The iPhone 5 is supposed to come out next month. Maybe it's time to switch brands of smartphones.

Events made on iPad calendar(through yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar

Events made on iPad calendar (through my yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar on the Web. I'm on latest iOS both on iPad and iPhone4. Any ideas?
Thanks

Raymondo1,
Glad this helpped!
I am a PC user so cannot help with your Mac interfaces. I can sync (crudely) my Windows 7 Address book with iTunes. But, I cannot sync my Windows Mail or Calendar with iTunes (unless I have Microsoft Exchange).
Microsoft Exchange is not available to me. This is why I use the iPod to sync with to Yahoo for email and Calendar.
The best I can tell, iTunes does NOT support an interface with Yahoo.
Have a nice day.

My Yahoo Calendar is not working on Firefox. Every time I click on the calendar link I am redirected back to the sign in page. It does work on other browsers though. this problem started in the past week.
Initially the problem was with all browsers, but afdter I did system restorem the problem went away with Google Chrome, and Internet Explorere, but not Firefox

I cannot open the new email icon for 10.6.8 including the latest security update. My old "Stamp" icon email won't let me in either indicating that the new OS version doesn't work. Please help. I have spend over 4 hours installing and reinstalling updates, etc. and I don't know where to go from here.....

Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:

I'm totally disappointed because of that.

Try doing a reset - hold down the sleep/wake button and the Home button together until the Apple logo appears, then let them go and allow the iPad to finish restarting. Then launch Safari and try to open a new tab.

Iphone sync with Google holiday calendar doesn't work

I have an iphone with IOS 5.1.1 and I'm using Gmail for email, contacts, etc.
I have already synced my Google calendar with the iPhone Cal and it's working fine. I'm trying now to sync the Google holidays calendars with he iPhone, and it's not working. I've already followed the instructions at http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&lev=topic&cbid=1nxqge2ur9j7 1&answer=139206&src=cb
The holiday calendar appears in the list checked , but the holiday itself doesn't appear in the calendar (June 7th is holiday, and it appears in the web and in the iCal in the MAC). I've done the same procedures for my iPad and it worked... The same happens with the birthdays calendar... Any help?

PA31,
I believe that you will find Jewish Holiday downloads for desktop, mobile and web calendars | Hebcal Jewish Calendar to be a more reliable Jewish calendar source than Apple Inc.

I just chnged the password on myipod.Now when i try the new password it doesn't work,and when I try the old password it doesn't work.I know how to unlock it, but the last computer i synced it with isnt working so there's no way for me to get my stuffback

So changed the password on my ipod touch this afternoon, and eversince then the password is not working. I keep trying the old password and hen the new one but none are working. I know there is a way to unlock it, but that would delete all my stuff and the last computer i synced my ipod to is broken, so ther'es now ay for me to get my things back. Could i have made a mistake when entering the new password?

Could i have made a mistake when entering the new password?
It's entirely possible. And it sounds like you already know what needs to happen in order to correct it. I'm afraid you won't be able to salvage any data that hasn't been included in your latest backup of the device via iTunes.

No longer able to sync with yahoo calendar after upgrade to OS5

Last night I upgraded my IPhone 4 to OS5 and when I went to look at my calendar this afternoon found almost all of my calendar data was missing except for some VERY old entries such as birthdays. I have never before used iCal or iCloud, just syncing between yahoo and the iPhone directly. All the account information seems to be correct. I just tried opening iCal on my Macbook Pro and set up the yahoo account in there, and the account seemed to sign in okay but no data appeared on the calendar. I am a very new mac user in the scheme of things, so have no idea how to even try an fixes for this, but it's very frustrating. If anyone has any suggestions or ways to fix this I'd love to hear them. Thanks so much.

This just happened to me. Lost all my info on my phone but when I logged onto my laptop it showed all info was still in my calendars. If this is the same for you need to go to your settings, then go to mail,contact,calendar, then go to add account, then other, add CalDAV account.. You will have 4 things to fill out put Yahoo (server name) put your yahoo email and password and the description as yahoo... When you hit save will change the server name on it's own to CalDAV.calendar.yahoo.ca..... Once this goes threw all your info should come back to your calendar. This is what I did and it worked. Hope this helps.......

ICal sync with Yahoo Calendar Beta ( 2 way) REDUX

I'm bringing back an issue that was archived recently even though it was not resolved.
Here it is: I (as well as many other people) am trying to sync iCal and Yahoo calendar. I followed the Yahoo instructions given here:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/calendar/yahoocalendar/sync/sync-03.html
But it only goes one way; when I add something to the Yahoo calendar it shows up in iCal, but when I add something to iCal it never shows up in Yahoo.
People keep saying to just follow the instructions and it will go both ways but for me AND MANY OTHERS it simply does not.
I've spent over an hour researching this, and this is a real live problem for a lot of people, going all the way back to 2008. I've seen dozens of different people saying they have this problem and I have yet to see a single solution aside from repeating the same instructions that do not work (for everybody).
Some of the discussions focus on iCal's "Calendar" calendar vs. "Work" and "Home" calendars, claiming only the "Calendar" one will sync. If that's true then it is beyond stupid and is totally useless to me and thousands of others. But I doubt it's true because I have tested it; I've created events in "Calendar," "Work," and "Home," and none of them sync back to Yahoo.
How can this be such a common problem and yet nobody has a solution? (At least not one that makes sense...)
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated by me and many others!
(Sorry if I sound a bit grumpy; this stuff can be really frustrating!)
Thanks!

...one more thing; in Yahoo calendar, on the left-hand side where the calendars are listed, it only lists my Yahoo calendar, plus US holidays and Canadian holidays. It seems to me that my iCal calendars should be there too. How do I get them there? (That seems to be at the heart of it.)
There's an item to "subscribe to calendars" where you can enter an "iCal address," and the example they give is this:
http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/teams/sfo/ical.ics
That's a yahoo address, not an iCal address. And regardless, how do I find the iCal address for my three iCal calendars? ("Calendar," "Home," and "Work"). And besides, is this for syncing, or just viewing some external calendar?

I'm having trouble losing sync with yahoo calendar

Is anyone else having trouble with yahoo calendar? It used to work consistently, but now it stays in sync for a while and then goes out. I've tried contacting Yahoo support, but they say that they've told me everything they know and I have to work with Apple. Of course, my support has expired, so now what do I do?
In order to get sync back, I have to delete my Yahoo account from my iPod and then re-add it. It stays in sync for a while and then goes out again.
This started happening after iOS 5 came along.

It just just says, "A problem occurred. The webpage couldn't be loaded.
