iTunes does not sync calendars due to error

Question

itunes can not sync my calendars with my iPhone 5. It says it encounters an error  but no error message shows up.This started after I tried to try iCloud and had so much trouble I turned iCloud off.Is there any where I can find where the error is and correct it? I&#x27;ve looked at Console but see where the error hppens.ThanksHere is a copy of the console report during the syncing. The error apparently happens during the merging of the calendars.3/24/13 5:32:38.768 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 13/24/13 5:32:38.772 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 23/24/13 5:32:38.776 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 33/24/13 5:32:38.780 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 43/24/13 5:32:38.784 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 63/24/13 5:32:38.788 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 73/24/13 5:32:38.792 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 83/24/13 5:32:38.798 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 93/24/13 5:32:38.802 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 103/24/13 5:32:38.806 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 113/24/13 5:32:38.810 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 123/24/13 5:32:38.814 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 133/24/13 5:32:38.818 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 143/24/13 5:32:38.821 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 153/24/13 5:32:38.825 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 163/24/13 5:32:38.829 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 173/24/13 5:32:38.832 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 183/24/13 5:32:38.837 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 193/24/13 5:32:38.841 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 203/24/13 5:32:38.845 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 213/24/13 5:32:38.849 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 223/24/13 5:32:38.853 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 233/24/13 5:32:38.857 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 243/24/13 5:32:38.861 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 13/24/13 5:32:38.865 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 23/24/13 5:32:38.869 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 33/24/13 5:32:38.873 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 43/24/13 5:32:38.877 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 63/24/13 5:32:38.881 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 73/24/13 5:32:38.885 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 83/24/13 5:32:38.889 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 93/24/13 5:32:38.893 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 103/24/13 5:32:38.897 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 113/24/13 5:32:38.900 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 123/24/13 5:32:38.904 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 133/24/13 5:32:38.908 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 143/24/13 5:32:38.912 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 153/24/13 5:32:38.916 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 163/24/13 5:32:38.920 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 173/24/13 5:32:38.923 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 183/24/13 5:32:38.927 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 193/24/13 5:32:38.931 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 203/24/13 5:32:38.935 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 213/24/13 5:32:38.939 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 223/24/13 5:32:38.942 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 233/24/13 5:32:38.946 PM mDNSResponder: ERROR: handle_resolve_request bad interfaceIndex 243/24/13 5:32:38.972 PM [0x0-0x110110].com.apple.iTunes: 2013-03-24 17:32:38.971 The plugin &#x27;Quartz Composer Visualizer&#x27; failed to load because it has the wrong CPU architecture for this version of iTunes.

Hi Larry,iCloud and iTunes syncing are not particularly compatible (as you&#x27;ve found out).  If you have both running you almost certainly will get duplicates.  From your log it looks like you have come across a block to stop that duplication loop becoming infinite (i.e sync to iCloud &gt; sync to another device &gt; sync back via iTunes &gt; sync to iCloud ... repeat ad infinitum making duplicates each loop).I suggest you:1 Select your calendar in iCal&#x27;s calendar list and from the File menu select Export… &gt; Export… and save the calendar. 2 From the File menu select New Calendar &gt; On My Mac and make a new calendar. 3 In the Finder open the file you saved in point 1, selecting the destination as the calendar made in point 2. 4 Once you are happy the data in the calendar is a good copy of what you were expecting delete the old calendar. 5 Repeat steps 1-4 for each additional calendar you are wanting to sync.5 Sync via iTunes again (or by iCloud if you like - but definitely not by both).Best wishesJohn M

Good Morning John,I had no problem following your instruction John and I thank you.It does not fix the syncing problem and I did the followingOnce I had the exported calendar saved to desk top I used my TM to back that up.I renamed the new calendar "main calendar" using the file menu in iCal.During syncing using iTunes the same message come up.I unchecked in iTunes everything except reminders and it still gave me the message.I then did a bold thing and deleted my calendar on my iPhone thinking that could be a merge problem andit still gives me this message.Here is the log;3/25/13 3:46:02.776

In that case you&#x27;d need to do some similar export, re-import a copy and delete the original in your Reminders application.If that does not work the next step would be to reset your Sync Services folder. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627John M

Reminders Application? you mean on the iPhone? I don&#x27;t have a reminder app on the mac that I know about.Anyway I did reset the Sycn Services folder per the instructions.Then I tried to sync using iTumes and got the same message again. My Calendar on the Mac is ok after recovering it from TM so I check the box in iTunes to one time replace the iPhone calendar with the one on the Mac.That worked and now it syncs fine. Interesting to say the least.Really appreciate your help John I have only one question left. when I replaced the calendar not all the data went into the phone. I did uncheck the "do not sync data older than 0 days. So I should have all data transferd into the iPhone. Right?

Hi Larry,I&#x27;m glad you&#x27;ve got it working.The Reminders application is on your Mac, in the Applications folder. It is where the reminders that used to be in iCal were moved to when iCal became Calendar in OSX 10.8.John M

My reminders are still in iCal as I have version 5.0.6 of iCal and 10.7.5 on my mac. I just checked for updates and it says I am current.In any case I guess I could do the export/import thing with my reminders as they aren&#x27;t coming in during the sync.(boy I&#x27;ll never touch iCloud again except to find my phone as that I have used). I will try to locate the reminder file on the Mac and do the export function. I have reminders on my iPhone as I use it almost every day.I&#x27;ll let you know.Again many thanks, you are a wealth of knowledge.Larry

I think I&#x27;&#x27;m confused.I have reminders in my iCal on the right hand side and seldom use it.The reminders I&#x27;m talking about and use often is the ones in the iPhone 5 which are real handy as the will let you know when you are near a store to purchase item you might need. (if you have the address of the store in your contact list.)I guess they aren&#x27;t involved when you sync you phone with iTunes.Sorry about that.Larry
