Siri duplicate entries in calendar reminders

I had some trouble with duplicate calendar entries in Calendar with iCloud and Siri, showing duplicate entries in my iPhone, but not on my macbook pro. I've now set the iphone to show just iCloud entries, which seems to have fixed duplicate entries in Calendar, but when I ask Siri what I'm doing today or if I slide down the quick view, it shows some of my entries twice - how do I delete duplicate entries there if Calendar is only showing the iCloud calendars?

Before I changed the settings, iCloud tried to sync 7 calendars -

Yahoo (I forgot I even had this one)

home .mac

work .mac

home itunes account

work itunes account

icloud home

icloud work

iCloud Calendar (not sure why it has this one too)

In Calendar it now just shows -

iCloud home

iCloud work

I unticked iCloud Calendar but it still shows duplicates when I ask Siri 'what am I doing on XX'. I can't find a setting to change it.

I think I resolved this. I turned the calendar sync in settings off and on and all the duplicates disappeared

HI - hope you can help. I have just eceived my 4S and I too see that Siri finds duplicate calendar entries for every meeting. This does not show in the nomral calendar - only when Siri searches. Before I do as you did - turn of calendar syncing - did you find that your calandars (I have 17) still kept up to date with iCloud? Thanks for your help. SM

I found that Siri still duplicated everything, but I've not checked again since iOS 5.1 came out. Hopefully now fixed
