yahoo shared calendar not syncing anymore

Hi

I use iOS calendar app for years, in sync with 3 calendars of my yahoo account: 2 of them are personal, the 3rd one is a family calendar hosted on my wife's yahoo account and shared with mine.


Since a few days the app suddenly stopped syncing with this shared calendar (although I can see it in the list), no event appears anymore on this one. Of course I tried to delete and connect again to my yahoo account in the parameters, but it does not fix the issue.


I can still see all events of this shared calendar using a web browser on my yahoo account, so this is not an issue on the sharing itself.


Very annoying. Looks like something was broken recently in the iOS app.


Any help appreciated.



iPhone SE, iOS 16

The Calendar on my Phone just synced. All data from Yahoo has repopulated it.


Either Apple or Yahoo or both did something. However, my data only goes back about 6 months, as someone pointed out. I guess that is better than nothing.


I did not change my password or anything else today. I just opened the Calendar on my phone and it started jumping around and then I realized it was downloading the events. I checked and it appears completely correct.

1) I made sure my Cloud password was in sync with apple id. I did have issues with pw in the past.

2) I was still receiving partial yahoo calendar invites. My yahoo created invites did not show up on iphone. All my old meeting invites from my work Outlook or non-yahoo invites appeared. New invites were not. Starting from Sunday, June 11, 2023

3) I reinstalled Yahoo mail for a 3rd or 4th time.

4) Last, I start toggle my calendars in iphone settings last night, checking my calendar and the the missing invites started to appear and download overnight. drained my iphone battery completely (was charged 100%).


Bottom line, somebody made a code change or server change that cause the issue and did not have a team properly test. Plus courtesy change/release notification between Yahoo and Apple companies share the code change in advance. My two cent as an IT professional.

I experience now the same problem where my Yahoo Calendar entries simply do not show anymore on my iphone calendar app. I removed the account from the iphone and re-installed it (several times), I checked the iphone calendar app settings to make sure that the yahoo calendar was well selected to appear.

Nothing works for me


It's now 3 days since I lost synchronization.

Can someone at Apple or Yahoo help with this ?
