On the iPhone tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

Then turn your iPhone off, wait a second and then turn it back on. This should solve the problem

This solved my problem. Icloud/Iphone connection was lost and would not update calendar or tasks. Problem seemed to have started with latest upgrade to Iphone. Anyway the reset instructions above did the trick. Thanks!
