Noted. Thanks.
I am having one problem with the solution that is working for others. When I am entering a reminder on my iphone, there is no "show more" on the details page. All the settings are as described above. I am running iOS7 and Mavericks.
Any thoughts on what the issue might be?
I am also running IOS7 and Mavericks. Now when I look at the bottom of the Details page there is no longer a " show more. " The page is currently showing" List " with "Reminders" to the right. Click that and make certain "Reminders" under "iCloud" is checked.
Hope this helps BelmontS.
I had the same problem. Firstly check if your reminders sync in the icloud and then switch on the icloud backup in you settings. it helped me solve this problem.
Noted, pawelrudiak. Thanks.
First to try:
Try restarting your iPhone. Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Other solution, iPhone backp extractor,which can restore reminders from iPhone backp to personal computer: http://www.vibosoft.com/ios/extract-iphone-backup-from-itunes-mac-windows.html
Thank you, Moyeaka. If I ever have the problem again I will try your suggestion.
I have no knowledge of Coolmuster. Sorry.
I know a tool named iPubsoft iPhone Backup Extractor for Mac, which can help you extract files from iPhone to Mac! It is a good tool which allows you to extract iPhone reminders on Mac!
Sometime the iCloud doesn't work to sycn the reminders from iPhone to Mac.
In this occisaion, you can ask for the third party software,
such as Coolmuster or iStonsoft iPhone to Mac Transfer.
The tutorial about copy/ save reminders to Mac/ PC may help you.
I don't understand what you mean by "Then, if I am entering a reminder on my iphone, I go to Show More at the bottom of the Details page." iv done all the steps before this, still no syncing. but i dont seem to have any option for show more, and maybe that is the issue?
Hi Alexandra1211,
My 10/24/13 updated comment may help you.If you enter a reminder on your iphone, touch the blank space next to the reminder and an "i" in a circle will appear like wizardry. Touch it and you will get your Details page. Enter the day and time you want to be reminded and any notes. Toward the bottom, next to List you will see Reminders;click that and you will get a Change List page. Make certain that under icloud, Reminders is checked. I just did it before I wrote to you and it syncs perfectly with my Mac.
Hope this helps,

Reminders needs to be activated in 3 places in your iPhone:
1: Settings > iCloud
2: In Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendars>iCloud (scroll down and turn on Reminders)
3: In notification pull-down screen> Edit (at bottom) > Add reminders.
This worked for me and I hope it works for y'all
Strangest thing happened with my calendar this morning (i noticed, but it's been more than a few days that it's been misbehaving). My phone did not alert me to an appointment I had yesterday and I knew it was this week sometime so I went to look for it on my computer and it was not there. Trouble is, I couldn't find it on my phone either but I am SURE I put it in there. I also had another one that was upcoming that I was sure I had put in there on my macbook just the other day. So i redid that one, and it didn't show up on my phone and most of my month looked blank when viewed on the 'month' view. Until I went to view the 'day' view and then clicked "today" down in the lower right hand corner to see all the upcoming events. THEN they all were there in that view, but many recently added appointments hadn't been indicated as being on the calendar in any other view nor on my macbook. Now that I had viewed them as a list of upcoming events in the 'today' view on my phone, suddenly they all appeared on my calendar on macbook and iPhone. I did not change a thing except to look at a different view.
This is very strange to me. In addition my daughter's calendar kept not syncing but suddenly now started working again when she hasn't changed anything
Oh and yeah, I did miss my appointment yesterday because of this.
