iPhone calendar + List View All Calendars option (MobileMe)

Question

iPhone calendar + List View All Calendars option (MobileMe)

Hi all,

I'm trying to fix a problem, which maybe there for some time already, in the iPhone Calendar. I'm using MobileMe to sync contacts and appointments. All my devices are up-to-date to the latest levels of firmware and software.

I have a normal calendar in iCal and some subscribed calendars. Ther's no difference in both type of calendars.

This is what's happening.....

- Individual calendars are all looking perfect in List, Week and Month view.
- All Calendar option is looking good in Week and Month view.
- All Calendar option is bad in List view mode.

When selecting the last option the Today date is changed a couple of days (Today = Wednesday 10-3), but also appointments are on different days. For example the soccer games on Saturday (6-3) and Sunday (7-3) are now changed to Tuesday (9-3) and Wednesday (10-3).

I have the same calendar on my other iPhone and nothing weird going on over there?!?

Does somebody have a clue?

PS. The calendars for this (MobileMe) user are all correct on the other Apple devices.

Thanks!

Hello,

I was having a similar problem and when I checked my time zones were off. Are you sure all your calendars are under the same time zone?

Hi,

Thank you for your reply!

Yes, I have checked all the time zone settings and they are all the same on the iMac, the MacBook, the MacBook Pro and the iPhone. Also MobileMe is on the same time zone.

That was the first thing I checked.

I also cleaned the whole calendar on the iPhone.

Hi All,

Got a message from cini007, but I get an error message when I want to reply to that message. I have copied the "solution" below.

I have tried this, but it's not working. The only thing happening is it has changed the dates randomly.

Although I have been looking for the auto shut-off option. I can't find that option only in the alarm clock options?

I had Genius Bar visit with same issue—no go (was advised to reset to factory settings).

BUT here is the SOLUTION as it happened again:

1. set auto shut-off to never
2. turn OFF MobileMe syncing for calendars on the iPhone (from Settings menu)
3. wait for calendar entries to be removed—takes minutes if you have several calendars
4. hard reset iPhone (press Home and On/Off at the same time for >5 seconds), and wait 2 minutes (about the time to reboot)
5. restart iPhone
6. turn ON MobileMe syncing for calendars on the iPhone (again, from Settings menu)

I have had to completely reset my iPhone and got rid of all the content, after chatting with support. They didn't see this one before.

I rebuild the complete iPhone with a different name.

It seems to be stable again, but it has taken a lot of time again 😟

Don't want to go through this one again!!

Hello, Since I changed to one of my sub-accounts I haven't had a problem. (I have a Family Pack MobileMe) Only my main account is giving me headaches. I have been working with a supervisor to fix the problem but no solution yet. I know it's not the phone.

Hi,

Me too, but this issue was with a sub-account, not the main account. I know it's not the iPhone, but it's MobileMe, which gets messed up every now and then.

Is it, as a small company, better then putting in servers (like a File- and Mail server), absolutely!
