When I add an event to the calendar in my iPhone 5, it does not appear in iCloud or on my MacBook Pro. However, when I enter an event into iCloud, it does appear on my iPhone.
iPhone 5, iOS 6
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar and make sure you have selected the calendar listed under your iCloud account ID as your default. If not, change it, then add an event and see if it syncs now.
iCloud is checkmarked as my default account. It's still not syncing events created on my iPhone with iCloud, even after refreshing the calendars.
Try going through the troubleshooting steps listed here under "Troubleshooting iOS Devices": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999.
I did all of that this morning. None if it worked, and that's why I posted the question here. 😟
Did you try turning iCloud calendar syncing to Off on your phone (if your iPhone calendar isn't backed up when you do this be sure to choose to keep the data on your phone if prompted), then restarting your phone and turning it back to On?
Yep. I've tried turning it off, deleting it, restarting the phone...I feel as if I've done everything. Twice.
As it is, any events I create or change on my MacBook Pro or in iCloud are transferred to all other devices (including my phone) instantly. The only issue is when I create or change an event on my iPhone. Nothing else syncs with it.
Some users are reporting wifi issues with iOS 6 that are effecting iCloud syncing (such as photo stream not working). Are you experiencing other issues related to iCloud, e.g. an inability to upload photos to photo stream?
Nope, not at all. I just took a picture this morning that is now on my computer, so there are no problems there or with Contacts or Notes.
Are you syncing contacts with any other external service on your phone, such as a gmail exchange account?
No. Only with iCloud.
Sorry, I meant to ask if you were syncing your calendar with another external service, not contacts. I assume the answer is no to that too.
If you went through all the troubleshooting steps for iOS devices in the linked article above and that didin't resolve it I don't know what else to suggest. If it were me, at this point I would make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it. They may need to contact iCloud support, but themselves but at least that wouldn't cost you anything.
Yeah, the answer is still no in regards to the calendar. I will make an appointment now at an Apple store. I didn't even think of that. Thanks!
You're welcome. Good luck.
Hi
I've just posted the same problem as you. I have tried all the troubleshooting suggestions - several times. Did you get anywhere with the Apple Store?
