Why does my iPhone duplicates my Outlook Calendar entries?

My iPhone makes a mess of my Outollok calendar.  It often duplicates appointments in Outlook and, perpetually, has double entries on itself.  How do I remedy this and prevent it?

In settings, general, international, look at your language settings. Are they correct? Also what keyboards in general do you have selected?

    when syncing my iphone with my Outlook calendar, a few days appointments didn't show in my iphone calendar, but other days did.  The appointments show in my outlook calendar.  I have done this many times, and this is the first time I have had this kind of trouble.  Any idea what has caused these appointments to not show?

    Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
    I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread. 

  • IPhone wants to 'Modify' 504 Outlook Calendar entries on Syncingvis iTunes

    Hi,
    Until a few months ago (possibly when the clocks went forwards an hour??), my iPhone 4S synced without problems with my Outlook Calendar via iTunes, but now I get a message saying that continuing will result in modifying 504 entries on my Outlook Calendar. I therefore cancel the Sync.
    None of my other syncing - music, photos, contacts, etc - are affected. I have tried choosing (on the iTunes info page) to 'over-ride' my iPhone's calendar and put the Outlook one onto the iPhone, which works okay, but then I get the same error message when I next sync the calendars...
    I don't want to let it sync and have to alter all my Outlook calendar entries. Time zone settings are for London on the iPhone (General>Date & Time), and also on my computer, which is showing the same time.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    I had the same issue with the disappearing calendar. I had my entire work and personal schedule on my iPhone.
    My computer had crashed and I had to reinstall Outlook. Once that was done, I did a sync with the iPhone....and the entire calendar vanished from the phone!!
    I have searched and searched the net to find a way to restore it, but I think it is gone forever. I would have thought it would be part of the backup that iTunes does before a sync...but It won't restore to the phone. I figured out how to 'extract' just the calendar info and it looks as if there are hundreds of entries there...but nothing I do works to either get them back on the iPhone or even save them as a CSV file to import into Outlook.
    I am mad as anything to think that I will have to input every entry again not to mention all the ones I will miss, or the past ones that I still needed.

  • TS1363 Why does my iphone stall on preparing to sync?

    why does my iphone 4, stall on preparing to sync?

    In addition the the step it tells you what it is doing during that step. If it is backing up that is taking a long time try deleting your backup, then just back up (rather than syncing). The first backup may take a while, but after that is should be fast. If it is Syncing see if you can identify the sync step - contacts, calendar, photos. If you have a lot of photos in Albums (not camera roll) that should take a long time whenever you change photos, but should not any other time.
    How are you syncing contacts and calendar? If you have a lot of contacts (>1,000) and the change frequently that's a possibility Likewise for calendar entries.
    Beyond these I'm as mystified as you. Earlier versions prior to 3.1 commonly took a long time to sync, but more recent versions generally ahve not had a problem.

  • Why does my iPhone keep notifying me of upcoming birthdays on Facebook, I can't stand it. How do I get this off?

    Why does my iPhone keep posting notices about upcoming birthdays from fb? How do I get rid of it?

    It's all coming from Facebook.
    Either a notification is turned on or somehow these "events" have been synced to the calendar.
    The "how to fix" would depend on the notification.  If it's coming from the Facebook app, again, fix the notifications in the settings for your facebook account.  Since you're also getting emails, I believe this is where the notifications are coming from.
    If they are coming from the calendar app, then either change the notifications for each event or delete the events.

  • Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    OK, so I'm clearly a newb. I thought if I asked a question, it would post, and now I'm being told to post a comment, so I'm asking the same question again. Sorry I sound like an idiot. I'm new to this apple/mac stuff.
    Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    If you have added the ringtone file correctly to iTunes, it will appear under iTunes 'Tones' library.
    If you don't find Tones library in iTunes, go to iTunes menu EDIT/PRFERENCES under GENERAL tab, check the Tones Box under Library source to display Tones library in iTunes.
    iTunes accepts only m4r file as ringtone and has to be less than 40secs.

  • Why does the iPhone convert animated .GIF images?

    I saved a bunch of animated .GIF files on my iPhone.
    When I imported them onto my computer, they were all single framed .JPG files.
    Why does the iPhone convert the images, and is there any way to prevent this?
    Thanks!

    you can play gif in webView ,just the same way you load a jpeg or png..
    NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"santa" ofType:@"gif"];
    NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path isDirectory:NO];
    /* Load the request. */
    [myWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];
    the gif that is locally saved will be loaded.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?

    Why does my iphone 3gs screen go white after it goes "to sleep" for the first time after turning it on?
    The screen isn't broken because it works after i turn the device off and back on, but after it goes black once, it's only white again.
    But it takes the touches although it's only white, because I can answer my phone when I slide my finger on the bottom of the screen, eventhough there in not the button to see.
    This is so weird. I have already done everything I can think of that might help. But I cannot think of anything that might be causing it, because nothing has happened to the device.

    Let me know if I should start a new discussion instead of opening a new topic here.
    My wife's iPhone is the same vintage as mine 3Gs, but has never had the battery problem.  Its affliction instead is that it cannot detect WiFi networks unless it is quite close to the source.  Often, when my iPhone not only detects but shows a maximum cells connection with a network, hers cannot detect the network at all.  In contrast, her iPhone seems to detect ourcellular carrier just as well as mine does.
    Is there any help for this affliction?

  • Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?

    Why does my iPhone 5 take very grainy flash photographs in the dark will a hard reboot be safe to do to try to fix or is it a hardware issue?
    And By hard boot I mean holding the home and power button down at the same time for 10 seconds or whatever
    I see other people have these grainy flash photographs if you try to take a picture in darkness the picture comes out very dark and grainy I thought the software would ultimately fix this but it's been going on for over a year I usually take my photographs in daylight but I need this to be fixed
    If it is a hardware issue I hope Apple will replace my iPhone 5 because I was just waiting for one of the iOS updates to fix it I bought my phone in November 2012 its the iPhone 5
    Please help or advise if you can was this just a software or hardware issue I know Apple was aware of it but I was advised that iOS update would fix it but obviously not
    Is it safe to do a hard boot on my iPhone five by holding the power and home button at the same time for 10 or 20 seconds I saw someone said that fixed there's at least temporarily
    I'm typing this on my iPhone five right now why do the words go off to the left and right no matter if I hold the phone vertical or horizontal the words bleed off to left right so for me to proofread it I have to move my text left to right to proof read it
    Thank you

    The flash on a smartphone camera is tiny. It only lights up a very small area right in front of the camera. It won't light up the whole scene.
    Have you seen the size of the flash on a professional camera? Even they can't light a whole scene in the dark.
    Fact is, a smartphone camera is not capable of taking good photos in the dark, even with the flash.
    You'll need to buy and learn how to use a professional, dedicated SLR camera to be able to take good photos in the dark. It is not easy.

  • TS1702 why does my iphone 5s not display apps to my jvc car stereo, when the same apps work with my 4s?

    why does my iphone 5s not displaying apps on my jvc car stereo.  these apps worked with my iphone 4s?

    Blackberries were designed at a time when cellular data was very expensive. They don't do nearly as much as an iPhone, in part, to conserve data use. All modern smartphones will use more data than a Blackberry unless you do almost nothing.
    You do not need to quite apps. Almost no apps run in the background.
    Here are Apple's tips on iPhone battery use:

    If you are really only getting an hour of battery usage and not just engaging in hyperbole (), you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store.

  • What does "extracted channel PDF" mean and why does it continually duplicate on my desktop?  I think it happens when I move a file in Finder to another file and when I copy some web files.  How do I avoid this on my Mac (Mavericks)?  Thanks for your help!

    What does "extracted channel PDF" mean and why does it continually duplicate on my desktop?  I think it happens when I move a file in Finder to another file and when I copy some web files.  I have to immediately move to trash all the duplications on my desktop.  How do I avoid this on my Mac (Mavericks)?  Thanks for your help!

    What application is set to open PDF files? If you CNTRL click on the file and open with Preview does the problem occur?
    If not change the default application to open PDF files to Preview.
    You can do this by highlighting the file and either use CMD i or Get Info , this will open a window with the info on the file with an option to change the application that opens the file.
    That's all I can think of.

  • Why does my iPhone 4GS bounce of the TV

    Why does my iPhone 4S bounce of the TV (not flatscreen, old thick Philips) when I put the iPhone on top of it? It happens after some time, perhaps 20 minutes. The phone bounces of the TV and lands on the floor. The TV is off!

    Hi,
    That sounds like attention seeking behaviour.
    Step over it and ignore the antics.
    When it behaves in the fashion you expect it is OK to pick it up and follow the normal nurturing you use.
    If you do respond to it you will soon find yourself planning a zip line from your upstairs bedroom to the kitchen, coupled with a refusal to get in your pocket when you are ready to leave the house.
