Ventura not syncing exchange/outlook calendar entries
Exchange/ Outlook calendar entries not syncing with ical
Exchange/ Outlook calendar entries not syncing with ical
I had this same issue when I upgraded to Ventura. I found there is a process called exchangesyncd that controls the sync with the calendar app (and probably other things like contacts, notes, etc). The point is that I was able to go into Activity Monitor (use CMD + Space and type activity monitor in the search bar), and then type exchangesyncd in the search field within Activity Monitor, do a force quit on it (select the process on the list and then hit the X shaped button on top then force quit). It will take several seconds for the process to restart by itself, and then a few more seconds for the sync to start working on the calendar app. It took maybe 20 seconds in my case to start seeing the calendar sync again.
I remember back in Monterey I had this issue pop up every now and then. A full restart would fix it, but then I found a process called calendaragent and I would do the same thing I described above. Calendaragent is now gone in Ventura, but my guess is that exchangesyncd replaces it, as it behaves the same way. Hope this helps out!
Simply put, all of apple's productivity applications need a complete overhaul. Calendar is a mess and does not sync reliably, and now, doesn't seem to sync at ALL with exchange on Ventura. Mail is slow and not robust. It seems to always be the same: You release OS's just after fixing everything (takes years, and data loss issues, and problems are constant for users who want to stay updated). Now I understand why most of my unsophisticated Apple users DON'T update their OS for long periods of time...Because they are tired of "progress". The progress that is NO QUALITY ASSURANCE on the wide range of compute configurations, peripherals and OS versions. I am tired of Apple. I am tired of bad support that's based on believing you are perfect, or that, through automated testing, you believe your software is better than others. It's not. The main reason why? Years of waiting for things to be fixed, only for them to get worse. This bug is just another example of worse. Also, Ventura's legendary selective security to enable access only to authorized applications is literally breaking everything. Currently, my camera on my relatively new iMac is broken across the board. I have had to go to my slightly more modern portable to do any video conferencing. IT's embarrassing. The class actions are coming. Keep it up Apple. No QA, we all suffer because you believe automated testing is the only way. It's not and it's bad for us, THE CUSTOMER.
This was an issue on Monterey (and apple has usefully decided to close that discussion, even though its still relevant, sigh), so I've come here to report that in the past week I now have automatic syncing working again. Between Monterey and Exchange accounts.
I was having to do the 'kill calendar agent task' to get a sync.
So someone has done something in the back end.
That might apply to ventura, but am reporting here for the reason stated above.
Same thing happened with me. Also discovered that my zoom meeting invites aren’t getting sent because of this same issue. Ughh
I've been onto Microsoft who push back to apple.. very very frustrating
This worked for me
It is a very serious problem that puts the possibility of using a Mac in business at risk: I expect a super fast solution from Apple!
Agreed!!!
I have the exact same problem
Hoping this will work...same issue. It literally started today but with Monterey. Zoom meetings, calendar invites from anyone were not populating and there Accept button was green but not working.
Where do you find Ical weather? I can't for the life of me find where it is hidden. Anything is worth a chance at this point
I only have Cal (no sub headings that show weather) so probably not the problem but appreciate the responsiveness and input!
Thank you so much, this is working!
Yes, that helped me too. Thank you!
That did not solve it for me. I see my exchange account calendar reappearing as an item in the list of calendars, but no items with check boxes nested under it.
Another user has posted in another thread that Apple told him they are working on a fix... but reading some of the posts here, I am beginning to doubt they will actually be coming up with one... :-(
