Duplicate Outlook Calendar Items after upgrade to os5

Hi,

I upgraded to os 5 the other day on my Iphone 4. I have an MSN email account with an MSN calendar. I have a lot of daily calendar items which are like reminders. I usually delete that days recurring reminder each day or 2 to keep a clean calendar. After I upgraded I switched to the Cloud. After that sync, I have duplicate calendar items for EVERY item on my calendar back years ago. This includes both onetime items and recurring (daily ,weekly, yearly) items.

I found an old post that said to turn off sync calendar and deletethe items off the phone then turn back on. Well, I went into setting>mail>cloud and turned off calendar sync and waited 10 minutes. It deleted the duplicates but kept all the rest. I then went and turned calendar syncback on and all the duplicates showed up again.

Any ideas on how to get rid of the duplicates?

iPhone 4, iOS 5

I found the answer.


1. plug the phone in to your computer or wall plug or this does not work!

2. Go to settings>Icloud> and turn off calander sync. Then delete all items. Now your iphone calendar should be blank.

3. Now got to Icloud.com and log in using apple ID.

4. Look at your calendar. On the left edit your calendars and remove all of them. Now your cloud calendar should be blank.

5. Now go back to your Iphone cloud setting and turn calandar sync on. After awhile your Iphone calander should match your Outlook calnder and your Icloud calander should too.
