Sync between calendars on icloud.com and iphone 4s ios 6.0.1

Appreciate any advice on this nagging issue.


Using iphone 4s with IOS 6.0.1. Set up icloud. When I'm at my desk, use Safari to access my contacts and calendar functions via icloud.com.


The following is what I found:

a. Any new calendar entry I created in icloud.com will replicate to my iphone every time.

b. Any new calendar entry I created on my iphone would not replicate to icloud.com


I checked both iphone and icloud.com and confirmed the following settings:


1. Only 1 standard icloud Calendar on icloud.com, and it is checked. I have not created any other calendars.


2. On my iphone, Default Calendar is the icloud Calendar, and it is checked.


3. On my iphone, I have set SYNC to All Events.


4. On my iphone, icloud settings: Calendars is set to ON


5. On my iphone, Fetch New Data is set to PUSH every 15 minutes


I have tried numerous times to create calendar entries on my iphone, and they just refuse to show up in my calendar on icloud.com. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Kenny

Hi Julian,


Thanks for the info. Among the many steps provided, what did the trick was item 4:


Change the Sync settings for your calendars:

  1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
  2. Scroll down to the bottom.
  3. Tap Calendars > Sync.
  4. If sync is set to All Events, set it to a specific duration, such as Events 1 Month Back. If it's set to a specific duration, set to All Events.


IOS just would not update icloud for calendar if it's set to All Events. As soon as I changed the setting on my iphone for Calendar to Events 6 Months Back, the synchronization worked flawlessly.


Thanks again. /Kenny
