Why is a subscribed calendar not updating in Calendar on iPhone?

There is a subscribed calendar I control which I use regularly in Calendar (iCal). When I make changes to the source of the calendar on the web, the changes to the subscribed calendar are very quickly update in Calendar on my MacBook, which I appreciate. However, this does not successfully occur in Calendar on my iPhone. I have been trying to figure out off-and-on for a couple weeks why it doesn't update in Calendar for iPhone. I have spent no less than ½-hour working on it, via trying to edit the calendar, look at settings, double-check which calendars are showing to make sure it's the correct one, etc., etc., and I cannot figure it out. Why are changes to a subscribed calendar showing up successfully in Calendar on Mac but not in Calendar on iPhone?

Hey xcwomac.
I did some research and found this:

It worked out just fine for me, hope it helps you.
Cheers.

  • Calendars not updating since getting iphone5

    My calendars not updating since getting iphone5
    Used to work OK  before I upgraded, but I can't see why it's not happening.
    Other device is my wifes ipad and iphone

    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.

  • Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got me to Agree and nothing happens.  Am doing the update via a Wifi connection.

    Hello,
    Why is iOS 8.2 not updating on iPhone 5S?  It got the user to Agree to the Terms and Conditions but nothing happens.  The user is doing the update via a Wifi connection.  Current OS version on the device is 8.1.3.  User did a hard reboot of the device and still the same result.  Not tried using iTunes as a workaround as we want to know why it's not updating via a Wifi connection.  Storage space available is 9G.
    If you know of someone who is experiencing the same issue, please let me know the fix.  Thank you.

    1. I do not know if this will help you or not. In researching this issue with my wife's iPhone 5c 8GB, the most common answer you will get is to adjust this or that setting, and disable this or that App. These at best are only a band-aide solution at all. The best reply I got was from a Verizon Rep that stated "By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress, or information is being back-up wirelessly and the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data if it is left on". Afterwards, I discovered the exact same information here on the Apple Support Forum to support this statement.
    2. Later onward, I read that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, it will prevent it from going dormant. In which case, this will prevent the iPhone from turning off the WiFi, and keep it connected to the WiFi. So far, this has help the most in controlling the amount of data usage being used, by my wife's iPhone.

  • I have the iPhone 5s. I synced it with my Mac and got all the old apps from my old phone. I was not able to update any of the apps on the old phone and they will not update on the new iPhone 5s either! What can I do?

    Hey there rmflint,
    It sounds like you are wanting to update the Apps that were synced over from your computer to your new iPhone 5s. If you are clicking Updates in the App Store in the bottom right corner, would you mind clarifying what happens when you are trying to update them?

  • I was updating the software on my iphone4. I got a message saying that it could not update. Now my iphone will not reboot. It only shows a pic to connect to itunes, but nothing is happening when i connect it.

    I was updating the software on my iphone4. I got a message saying that it could not update. Now my iphone will not reboot. It only shows a pic to connect to itunes, but nothing is happening when i connect it. How do I fix this?

    If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
    I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

  • Calendar not Updating on devices of subscribed members

    I run a calendar off my Macbook Pro and have multiple people subscribed to the calendar.  The calendar is not updating on their devices when I create a new event, but syncing up fine on my devices (I have it running thru iCloud). Any ideas why the people subscribed to the calendar aren't getting the updates on the calendar?

    Not sure why there's a lag in updating.  You can force your calendar to refresh by opening the calendar app, tapping Calendars at the bottom to show the calendars view, then pulling down and releasing on the center of the screen.
    You might want to update to iOS 8.1 which was released today (available over the air by going to Settings>General>Software Update).  That may help.

  • Outlook 2007 client reacurrance calendar not updating in mailbox

    Hello,
    Using Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2007 client. User has access to a shared Calendar in Public Folder. She makes an Recurrence Appt in Public Folder and invites herself to Appt. If she changes one of the future apt (Location change or something like that) it
    updates the Public Folder but not hers. I added myself to this apt and I am using Outlook 2013 and my apt does indeed update. I also can see in "Outlook Web Access" has updated, so just the Outlook 2007 client not updated.
    Any thought into why? Unable to Upgrade to user to Outlook 2013 until New year for other reasons.
    thank you for any help.
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    Please first make sure she has installed all available updates for Outlook 2007.
    In addition, please have the user temporarily turn off his antivirus and test again.
    If still no luck, we may try testing with a new Outlook profile. See:

    Please let me know the result.

  • Calendar not updating on iPhone

    Hello! I have had my iCloud Calendar on my ipad, iphone and Google desktop working well for a while now. But just recently, I noticed the updates and changes and additions I make on my calendar, are not appearing on my iphone. Right now, just the iPad and Google Cal are showing the same correct events.
    I logged out of iCloud on my phone and then restarted it - that didn't help. Both my devices have the most up to date software. I matched the settings on both devices to be the same... but still don't know why my iPhone calendar is not getting events I add on the ipad or Google cal
    Would love some help!
    Thanks,
    Casey

  • HT204053 Why are calendars not synching between Mac and iPhone even though it shows as synching on info tab for iPhone? Mac on an OSX 10.6

    Can't synch iPhone calendar thru iCloud/iTunes method from iPhone to Mac. Shows in info for iPhone as automatic update, but it is not updating calendar on the Mac.  I have OSX 10.6.8.

    Thanks, that's what I feared. They assume POP3 users are willing to make a masive attempt to change their
    public email address. Fortunately my secondary account, Yahoo, provided IMAP when IOS provided a custom setup for it, and I found I was able to select it as an OS-X mail account too.
    As for why Notes weren't updating, I had not realized Notes had suddenly gained an account selector in both Mac and IOS and might be in various places. I was testing by changing existing notes resident on my Mac or USB iTunes synced from there. It works if I move them to the iCloud account and then change them.
    I realize now there was an offer at some point in iCloud setup to merge or move some existing things, but I wasn't doing that that day, and I didn't get anouther offer when I enabled iCloud for Notes and Mail!
    It might also help to go to setup->Mail... and set Fetch New Data to push, which should propagate the changes faster.

  • Calendar not updating from iCloud

    My iPhone is version 4 with IOS 5. I turned on iCloud and all worked well to start with. Suddenly the calendar stopped updating and has not done so since. I have tried a complete reset with no improvement. Has anyone else had that problem?

    Have you tried looking in settings/notifications at where Calendar is listed it might be moved into 'Not in Notification Center' apps don't know why. I had this happen with another app.
    Hope this helps

  • Why is my iMessage app not updating?

    I have used (and LOVE) the iMessage app on my Macbook Pro.  Has worked perfectly, even through iOS7 upgrades, and the Mavericks update, as well.
    However over the past few days, it will not update correctly.  I can send messages from it, but it does not show the incoming messages most of the time.  They come through just fine to my phone and iPad, but not on my Mac...  any thoughts as to why this is occurring?

    Turns out that Feedburner was overruling the code in my XML with their "Smartcast" settings, which I have now disabled. Weird!

  • Microsoft 2010 exchange not updating my calendar and contacts

    I use Microsoft Office 2010 (exchange server) for my email, calendar and contacts. My email on both my iPhone (4) and iPad (4) works fine. However after a software update a few months ago, my calendar no longer updated on either my iphone or ipad.
    The calendar and contacts are set to the default exchange setting but neither is updating. I deleted the exchange account (on my ipad only) and then added it back...now ALL of my birthdays and reoccuring appointments that were in my calendar prior to the software update are gone. The birthdays and reoccuring stuff still shows on my iphone HOWEVER, any new appointment that I have added don't show up on either device. I was going to upgrade to the iphone 6 when it comes out but am having second thoughts since I can't get my calendar to sync with any new appointments. I never had issues prior to othe update. Any assistance would be MOST appreciated!

    Hello Bev76,
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like contacts and calendars on your iPad are not being synced to your iPhone 5, but the data syncs from iPhone to iPad.
    If you are using iCloud for your contacts and calendars, start with the troubleshooting steps in the "iOS" or "Troubleshooting on iOS devices" sections of these articles:
    Get help using iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar - Apple Support
    All the best,

  • Why is my wish list not updating when I add songs through iTunes Radio?

    Wish list is not updating.

    Count me in the same boat.  I'm an iTunes Match customer.  While listening to iTunes Radio I push the star and then choose to add to wish list except it never adds.  Doing the same function on my Mac works fine. 
    I found a note from Apple that stated you can only add "albums" to your wish list on iOS 7, not songs.  That then begs the question....why add functionality that is purposefully intended to add songs in your own UI????

  • Calendar not updating in Outlook 2010 but updating on OWA (Ex 2010 with Outlook 2010)

    Hi, 
    A few users are having this problem including me. There is a room Calendar which was working fine but not anymore. Here what is happening:
    User A cannot see the updates in Calendar, if someone has meeting user A cannot see it. User A can only see by visiting OWA
    User A create meeting in Room A via OUtlook. User A can see this but not other users. When visit OWA, User A cannot see that meeting. 
    User A creates meeting in Room A via owa. Everyone can see it. 
    User A sets outlook in ONLINE mode and now he can see all the updates
    So something is going wrong with outlook cache mode that it is not updating calendar or not connecting with calendar. Tried different fixes from internet but not working. Tried to rebuild outlook profile but that works once, but if there is update the same
    problem happens again. 
    Hasan

    Hi Hasan,
    Since the issue only happens in Outlook cached mode, please check whether “Download Shared folders” is checked in Outlook settings:
    1. Click Account Settings on the File tab.
    2. In the Account Settings dialog box, click the
    Email tab, click to select the Exchange account, and then click
    Change.
    3. Click More Settings. On the Advanced tab, check the
    Use Cached Exchange Mode and Download Shared Folders check box to have a try, and then click
    OK.
    4. Finish it and restart Outlook.
    Then check whether the calendar can be updated in Outlook.
