Why is there no answers to the calendar and contact sync issues

I have searched and can find questions everywhere but no resolutions.  Since upgrading to 5.1 and Itunes 10 I can nolonger sync contacts and calendars.  Any Ideas?

Look at your contacts on the phone.
Tap the Groups button in the upper left corner.
You will see all of the sources for the contacts on your phone. "From My PC" is the one that syncs with Outlook via iTunes.
Are the contacts you created on the phone in that group? If not, they won't sync with the PC. They'll sync with whatever service they're listed under. (iCloud, for example)
Same goes for calendars and Notes.

  • Ipod Calendar and Contact Sync Issues?!!!

    Quick note:
    Itunes 7.6.1
    Ipod 1.1 (latest)
    OS X 10.5.2
    Hi guys,
    I have a 3rd generation ipod nano (4GB). It has been working fine since January but it has had trouble in the last month. I noticed about two weeks ago that my ipod nano had no contacts and no calendar events on it. I went into itunes and it was set to sync all contacts and calendars. It just wouldn't sync them. The ipod had over 2GB available free space. Software is all updated.
    Unclicking and reclicking the settings didn't work, so I did unset and unplugged, etc etc. Nothing worked.
    So I reformatted the ipod completely. That fixed the problem for awhile but not a week later it's started up again. when I go to my ipod it says it can only sync 21 of my contacts because:
    "Only limited portion of your contacts could be loaded due to the amount of content on this ipod."
    The ipod has 2.5GB available this time! None of the calendars are synced at all. It syncs my music no problem..
    So what the heck is going on and what can I do?! I'm out of ideas.

    This is a known issue with the current iPod nano firmware. Nothing is going to 'solve' it but an update from Apple. However, it's not nearly as serious as it seems. After you sync your Calendars and Contact (and Notes, they are affected by this issue, too), they often will not appear, but a simple reset will always 'refresh the iPod's memory'. (And you do that by turning the hold switch on and then off, and then holding down the centre button and menu button simultaneously for about 10 seconds until the iPod reboots.)
    This is not actually an issue with Contacts or Calendars failing to sync. It's an issue with the iPod failing to recognise that they've been synced. A simple reset always solves it in my case and many others.

  • Has anyone got the calendar and contact sync with MS Outlook to work?

    Office Version:Office 2007Operating System:Windows 7
    I've used Outlook for several years. I use the Outlook Connector to link to my hotmail account for mail and Outlook's functionality for contact and calendaring.
    Recently my appointments seem to have taken on a life of their own. After entering them they look fine but at some point the appointment title is being changed to "Private Event". I can open the appointment and it looks ok. In fact, the little lock icon for making the appointment private is not enabled so I can find no visable reason for the appointment to be marked private.
    I am the only user and I have administrator rights. Also, none of my much older appointments are being changed, most of them being reoccurring appointments that haven't been opened in some time.
    It looks like what you might expect if you were a delegate on an Exchange calendar. But in this case my Outlook is just a local, standalone installation with no Exchange server.
    I can't be absolutely certain but I think the timing of when this started was a couple of weeks ago when I attempted to set up sync between my iPod Touch and Outlook. I never opened Outlook [that I know of] during the process. I just set the sync options in iTunes to Outlook. Nothing ever got copied over to the iPod but I think that the privacy issue began about the same time.
    Any idea what may be causing this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yes thats correct & it should showup if already checked.
    When I checked the https://p15-calendars.icloud.com/holiday/FR_fr.ics
    also https://p15-calendars.icloud.com/holiday/UK_uk.ics ofcourse it could be any page from
    p 0- to p 20- but nothing happens from the UK one but the FR it auto downloads does not instal into
    Calendar it will ask you for permision first.
    I have many calendars too Europe, Asia etc:
    This is what info of active Holiday Cal looks like.

    You would need to have enabled iCloud on your MBP. Your question indicated you did not.
    Its serial number is useful for establishing ownership should the MBP be recovered. File a police report.

  • HT1296 How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and the back up the phone again...

    How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and then back up the phone again will they transfer or be erased? I am a bit gun shy since my previous macbook pro committed suicide and I lost a ton of info there.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer.

  • I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

    I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

    I don't think so. When you open iTunes, go to "Store" on the top and click "Authorize this Computer." Type in your email and pass, and click authorize. Then, when you connect you iPod for the first time, it should tell you "this iPod is synced with another computer, blah blah." It should give you the option to either "Erase and Sync," or "Transfer Purchases." Click "Transfer Purchases and your content should go into your new iTunes.
    If this doesn't work and you still have your old computer there's another thing you can do. I know this works on windows, but I'm not sure how to do it on a Mac, maybe someone can offer some help. Assuming you have Windows, go to Start>Music>iTunes Media and you should see Music, Apps, Movies, etc. This is all the stuff in your iTunes. If you have an external hard drive or your iTunes library is small in terms of file size, you can do this in one go. Transfer the content (as much as you can fit at one time) onto the external storage. Then, put that content on your new computer on the desktop or somewhere where you can find it again. Open iTunes, and folder by folder highlight everything in the folder and drag it into the iTunes library. It should say "importing (content)" or something and then it should be in your library. If you look in your Music folder again, there should now be another "iTunes" folder there with all of your content back in it.
    Hope one if these options works for you. Best of luck!

  • I've an apple ID used to buy off iTunes and a mobileme account for the calendars and contacts. How can I move the calendars and contacts to the older apple ID and use it for iCloud?

    I've an apple ID used to buy off iTunes and a mobileme account for the calendars and contacts. How can I move the calendars and contacts to the older apple ID and use it for iCloud?

    If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
    1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
    2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
    3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
    Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
    [To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
    Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
    I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

  • How do I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it.

    My MacBook Pro is a few years old and I recently got an iPhone 4S. I want to know how I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it. I tried to download iCloud but then I'd have to download and pay for a new OS.
    If anyone could help me with this that would be great.

  • I downloaded os 5 in my 4 g iPhone and now the calendar and contacts freeze or don't open at all

    I downloaded OS 5 on my 4 G iphone and now the calendar and contacts freezes or doesn't open at all.

    Same issue! Tired the "phone reset" + "reset sync history" no joy. When I dock the phone i get "I-tunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later"
    Backed up before updating to OS 5, but I-tunes dosent seem to have saved any of the data. Tried the "restore" but it didn't work getting a (-50) error what a MESS!!!
    Luckly I have my contacts backed up but I can't add them back or anything to the phone via I-tunes, even drag and drop a song for example will not work. The "sync" button is ghosted out.
    Now I have a very expensive phone that can do F**K all
    Any ideas???

  • Windows Live Calendar and Contacts sync with iPhone

    I am looking at buying an iPhone. Is it possible to set the iPhone up to sync my Windows Live calendar, contacts and email over the phone network (ie without having to use iTunes), and can the calendar and contacts be edited using the iPhone and will this sync straight back to Windows?

    If you are syncing Windows Live Calendar with your iPhone calendar app, then you have discovered something that neither Microsoft nor Apple have admitted can be done.  There are a couple of published "workarounds" none of which are simple and which mostly just do not work.
    Perhaps you could tell us what you are actually doing?
