Can't Delete Recurring Event From Calendar

Hi,


I added a recurring event to my iPhone calendar. It is an event the originated on my work Outlook account that i forwarded to my personal email then added to my calendar. The event isn't synching across iCloud for some reason. It is only on my phone, so I want to delete it. There is no "edit" button on the event and, thus, no option to delete it. How do I get rid of it? Please help. Thanks.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

I Have iOS 9.2.1 and my reoccurring event would not delete. I would click on the Event, then click Delete Event at the bottom. It would disappear for a second, then come right back. Anything I tried to edit on it would not save. Finally, I tried this, and turned off my Icloud Calender sharing, Kept my calendars, then went in and was able to delete the event. Went back into Settings, and turned my ICloud calendar sharing back on. Problem solved (after 2 months!). Thanks for the tip!

I had a similar problem. Created an Outlook recurring appointment and then could neither delete an occurrence of the appointment nor the entire series in Outlook. The only way to delete the appointment was to delete the series on both the iPhone and in Outlook.

Is there any way to set a recurring appointment in Outlook and be able to delete an occurrence? I get "Unknown Error" when I try to delete an occurrence in Outlook.

Microsoft Support by phone wasn't able to resolve the issue.
