TS4062 iPhone 6 not syncing iCal events

I created a few events on my laptop & discovered they're not syncing with my iPhone 6+. However, my iPad is updating events perfectly, so I don't think it's a router issue. So, I conneced the cable between the laptop & the phone. It performed a sync. For some reason, the "WIFI sync w/ this device" option was turned off on my laptop, so I turned that one & followed the trouble-shooting instructions for problems w/ syncing w/ WIFI. Turned off iTunes, turned my phone off & restarted. Same problem except now my phone won't update ical events even when connected via a cable. All my software is up to date on all devices.
Ideas?

Hi I had time to call Apple today and it seems hopeless. The reason why my iPhone will not sync is that I have an old Macbook (1,1) which cannot handle a higher version of OS X than 10.6.8, which itself cannot handle a higher version of iTunes than 11.4.
With this version of iTunes I can load and install new versions of the iOS and it backs up the phone when I do so. But I cannot start a backup by pressing the Backup button, iTunes stops backing up after a second. Also, I cannot sync, the button is always greyed out.
It does not look like Apple intends to upgrade their software and iTunes for my Macbook anytime soon so it seems I am out of luck...

IPhone not syncing all events & some undeletable

Hello,
I'm helping my Dad with a problem he's having with iCal. Since I updated his iPhone 3g to 4.0, his phone & iCal aren't syncing properly. Some events aren't syncing to iCal on his iMac yet they are undeletable on his phone.
After searching these forums, I find that he's not the only one with this problem, however, none of the other threads are resolved so I'm bringing it up again in the hopes that someone has figured this out.
By the way, he's got a simple sync: iMac (running 10.5.8) to iPhone 3g running (4.whatever is current -I just ran the latest updates this afternoon when I was over there), no 3rd party calendars or mobile me with which to contend.
This afternoon I tried all the tricks I could think of or find here; reset sync history, turned off sync calendars in iTunes/then turned them back on, ran iCalDupeDeleter, threw away the cache & preference files as directed in another thread...
Thought I had it at one point when one of the erroneous files was gone after one of the syncs... just as I was about to announce my victory, it reappeared on the phone before my eyes, yet still doesn't sync or appear in iCal on the computer.
Over the weekend I've got to try exporting then reimporting each of his calendars & checking to make sure nothing is listed under "Birthday" in Address Book.
Any ideas?

I'm a "me, too" on this, and it does seem to be an issue with iOS4, the latest update in particular. Everything was fine between my iPhone 3GS, MobileMe, and my iMac running the latest OS. I was thrilled, since I switched from a Palm Centro that gave me fits over syncing the things I needed, since I'm not in an office all day and do some traveling. It was great, but now I have duplicates and missing events. My iMac has the correct information, usually, but the phone is missing some and has lots of duplicates... what gives? Guess we're all pleading for a solution here.

IPhone not syncing iCal after last update

Hello,
I just recently started having trouble syncing my iPhone 5. I think the trouble began after I updated the OS to 7.1. The sync issue seems to be with events that I've added to iCal on my iPhone that are not being synced with iCal on my MacBook Pro (10.7.5). iCal sync works the other direction, i.e. events I've added on my MacBook will show up on the iPhone.
I've tried doing Wi-Fi sync and USB cable sync, no difference. I walked through the steps in the Advanced troubleshooting article for calendar syncing, but that doesn't seem to have worked: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2481
Any ideas?

I have to say that is a completely stupid thing Apple has done - they have solved a problem that didn't exist.
I plug my iPhone into my laptop and - bam - everything is synced. No fuss, no muss. To force everyone to (1) use iCloud or (2) use another syncing service is inefficient and pointless - not exactly the Apple way which I thought was the whole point of Apple's/Jobs' vision. Perhaps Apple is competing with Google to try to get as much information about us as possible?
Just called Apple at 1.800.694.7466 and they told me the issue isn't with Mavericks per se but with iTunes 11.1.5.
According the helpful woman I spoke to, no one at Apple knows why Apple decided to remove the ability to sync everything via USB. She hears complaints about the change and knows it makes life difficult for folks.
She also recommended contacting www.apple.com/feedback about the change. She says Apple does in fact have a group of people who do read the comments.

Events created on iPhone not syncing properly

I've set iTunes to "Put new events creatd on this iPhone into the calendar" to my "Home" calendar, but when I create a new event on my iPhone and sync, the event shows up in the Read-Only "US Holidays" calendar (it's one that I subscribe to from Apple). I've tried the "Reset Sync History" feature in iSync several times (rebooting afterwards) but the problem persists. Any ideas??

Items that I enter on my iphone also get added to a calendar that I subscribe to, which is supposed to be read only, even though I have chosen another calendar to add new items too. My read-only calendar does not appear in the select box in the itunes info sync page, but it is getting the events, no matter what calendar I do choose. Then when the calendar gets auto refreshed from its source, the events disappear. I cannot change the events to place them on a different calendar, once they are in iCal my, because the calendar is read-only -- to everything but iphone.

IPhone 3gs not syncing iCal on os x Mountain Lion

TS3999 My iPad is not syncing calendar events via iCloud that I enter on my iPhone 5, but events entered on the iPad are syncing with the iPhone.

My iPad is not syncing calendar events via iCloud that I enter on my iPhone 5, but events entered on the iPad are syncing with the iPhone.

On you phone, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar and make sure you have selected a calendar listed under your iCloud account as your default. If not, make this change, then enter a new event on your phone and see if it syncs properly now.
If your settings are already correct, or if after changing them it still isn't syncing properly, make sure all the calendar events on your phone are in your iCloud calendar. If not, enter any missing events either on your iPad, or on icloud.com from your computer. Then, after your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn Calendars to Off. When prompted, choose Delete from My iPhone. After a minute or so, turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendar back to your phone. Then try adding a new event on your phone and see if it syncs properly now.

Notes in iCal events disappear

I've had trouble with notes within iCal events, as well as the parameters for repeating events and catagories, disappearing for no apparent reason from my Mac, iPad or iPhone (the phone seems to be the most frequent culprit). They all sync with each other, and regardless of which device I use to enter the event note, random ones will just vanish. Has anyone else encountered this? I use these event notes for accounting purposes, as I book clients with iCal. It's rather inconvenient when they're suddenly not there anymore. Thanks!

I sync iCal between multiple iMacs, a MacBook, an iPhone, and an iPad and I have the same problem. Any thoughts/feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Mobileme not syncing ical

my ipad wi-fi 16gb is not syncing ical to mobileme. I have been messing with settings. Done 3 restores, nothing works.
I searched the forums and didn't see this anywhere. Any ideas?

Hello,
Open System Preferences / MobileMe
Select the Sync tab. Make sure "Calendars" is selected.
Restart your Mac. Connect your iPad to your Mac. Under the Info tab make sure "Sync iCal Calendars" is selected. Click the Sync button bottom right side of the iTunes window.

Why is my iphone not syncing anymore

i have been unable to sync my iphone to my itunes so i ccan download, what can i do to solve this problem? Also what might be the cause to this?

thanks but its has nothing with iOS 8
contact on my iPhone not synced the issue is from my iPhone

My iCalendar is not syncing repeating events when I make an alteration, it disappears on the next minute

My iCalendar is not syncing repeating events properly, when I make an alteration, it disappears on the next minute

This is incredibly frustrating for me too!
I have a repeated monthly event for a discount at a store that is offered on the first Tuesday of every month. So I have a repeated event taking place on the 1st of every month. In the previous month I reset next month's date from the 1st to whatever date falls on the first Tuesday.
But ever since upgrading to Yosemite, I am experiencing the same problem as the original person who posted. The date saves on my calendar but does not sync to my iCloud. When I reboot the computer, the date reverts back to the 1st.
I'm thankful I don't have any events that needed to be tracked because ALL of my previous changes in the past have reverted back to the 1st of the month. I would have been in the same terrible situation as yaz999 in having to manually change every event in previous months.
Why hasn't this bug been fixed yet???!!!

Events created on iPhone not syncing to iCal when I bought new Leopard iMac

that pretty much says it all... i had a powerbook g4 and no problem syncing. bought new iMac with Leopard. just noticed that events created on iPhone not showing up on iCal. Ideas?

Ok, this will work.
1. Turn off .Mac Sync in System Preferences.
2. Open iCal and back up your calendar. File>Back up iCal. +(Just to be safe.)+
2. In iCal, export all your calendars as file(s). File>Export. +(Note: You can safe these to folders that are in a similar order to the calendar groups that you might have for ease in importing them back in later.)+
3. Delete all your calendars from iCal. +(Note: You will need to create a new "temp" calendar as iCal requires at least one calendar. *Also, it is very important to save the URL's of the calendars that you subscribe to for later importing.*)+
4. Import the calendars you just exported. +(Note: First add a new calendar to iCal and use the same name as the calendar that you are importing. All the data from your exported calendar will be added to your new calendar.)+
5. Open iTunes sync with iPhone, telling iTunes to reload all the info on my iPhone +(pertaining to iCal)+ INFO Tab>Replace information on this iPhone>check Calendar.
It's a pain and takes a while if you have a number of calendars, but it will work.
Good luck!

Can not sync iCal from my iPhone to my iMac

I can not figure out how to Sync the iCal events from my iPhone (where it works fine) to iCal on my iMac.
I have everything checked in iCloud preferences, but it is not working.

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.
