Printing my icloud calender from the past year

I have an iphone. I use my icalender for all my appointments. I also back up my iphone on my mac, and save its contents to the icloud. I must print off every calender from July 2011 up until now, May 2012 (10 months worth of stuff). When reviewing my iphone's calender from 2 months ago and before, all entrys are gone! I have no idea how to get this back or how to print it off. Does anybody know? I know on my old droid, all I did was log into gmail.com and all my info was right there from years ago--nothing was delted. But with the iphone, I have no idea where my calender is? Can anybody help me?

Welcome to the Apple Community.

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to the Calendars section and change the sync option to something other than 'Events 1 month back'.

You'll need to take a screenshot if you are working from the calendar at iCloud.com, and print that.

Whoa. I need to take a photo of nearly 300 days/ pages? Then order pictures of my calender? Are you serious? There has got to be a simpler way. My droid simply uploaded my calender to gmail, i am able to go online, and simply print off a page in 5 seconds. Why is the iphone so complicated? Isn't there an easier way? Ordering 300 photos is costly, wasteful and wont fit into an 8 1/2 x 11 notebook. Somebody help??

Why don't you just print from iCal on your Mac rather than trying to print from iCloud.com.

That would be perfect! How do I do that? How do I transfer my iphone data from my phone to my computer? If it is that simple I'd do cartwheels! Any details you can supply would be wonderful! You have been a HUGE help to me so far!!!

Just log into iCloud on your computer and enable calendar syncing, assuming you are running Lion of course.

If you aren't using Lion, you could try sharing the calendar from iCloud.com and opening it in iCal on your computer.

iCloud.com

I have have just seen someone else in another thread who said they couldn't share a calendar with themselves, I could when I tried, so I'm wondering whether you need to use another email address other than your me address associated with your iCloud account, let me know how you go on.

You have been a huge help! I found my calender on icloud. Now to get it to print correctly is another story. It would be nice if a quick "print" would reproduce exactly what is on my screen--but no such luck. My "one month calender" comes out in 4 pages with text jumbled on one inch on the left side of the page. Not sure what to do.....is it possible to do a "screen shot" of my laptop???
