iPad calendar not syncing to iCloud or iPhone

On iPad go to settings> mail, contacts and calendars > and check witch calendar is your default calendar.

Then, ensure that the calendar is the same on iPhone.

Nice to know that issue is resolved.

THANKS! Helped me too!!!

You're welcome.

Thank you all sooooooooo much for helping. I had the same issue and now I am jumping for joy that it is all fixed. My iPad would not sync with my phone or icloud.com. Not sure what it was that changed as I had not been into settings at all, but glad that I am back to normal. Thank you all!!!!

So I hope this is helpful...after upgrading to Mavericks from Snow Leopard, I am able to use the iCloud syncing between my iPhone and Mac. However, the vast majority of my iCal events on my iPhone (and what used to also be on my mac in SL) would not show up on iCloud or my new desktop iCal. If I created a new event on my iPhone, mac, or iCloud, it would sync fine in iCal. So what gives? I tried disengaging and re-engaging iCloud connections on my mac and iPhone, to no avail. I called Apple(non)Support and dealt with people who had to put me on hold to "do some research," just to come back and tell me they couldn't figure it out either.

What I knew was that the issue was on my iPhone. So, I just randomly when in to an event in my iPhone cal, clicked on the specific color-coded calendar that was associated with this event, switched it to another and back again, and voila! The event now appeared (almost immediately) on my desktop mac. So, pain in the *ss, but I went through my iPhone calendar and repeated this procedure for each event. What a tedious task!

Oh, and btw, don't switch between color-coded calendars too quickly or the iPhone will accidently make a second event.

What an annoying bug!

My problem is my iPad2 calendar is not syncing at all, no calendars appear on the iPad to select except the birthday calendar which does not even have birthdays.

I have not upgraded to Mavericks on my iMac desktop. Since I upgraded on my iPad2 to ios7, my iPad calendar is not syncing with the desktop/cloud. My itouch is ios 6 and continues to function normally and the desktop updates from cloud but the iPad is a blank. Only shows the birthday calendar with no birthdays.

Where does one find the "default"calendar in settings on the iPad? I have triple checked my settings and accounts settings and all appears to be good (but I do not see a default calendar option) and none of my various calendars appear on my iPad at all. Also, the iPad calendar does not permit me to create a new event, the "+" is not highlighted as the search icon is for example.

Any suggestions please to correct this malfunction? iCloud is turned on, calendar is on, I have my gmail calendars turned on as well and that does not sync either as the ipad does not show any option to look at a the google calendar. There seems to be a disconnect between the calendar and the icloud account. I think I am missing some step of some kind.

Was having same issue (IPHONE to iMac new events suddenly not making it) My upgrade to ios7 was awhile ago. Checked settings. Was panicked when I read about restoring, backing up. Ugh. So I tried the PC thing. REBOOT. Phone off, Mac off. So far, that fixed it. 🙂

My problem resolved itself. I double checked all the devices for log in; I logged out and logged back in to my iclopud account and voila, my calendar synced on the ipad. Now working as normal on all devices with ios7.

I have had the same problem and went to (on my mac) up the top VEIW and ticked 'all day events' -all my dates etc from my ipad turned up.Far out.that only took 2 days.

This is exactly what happened with my iPad. I entered my entire schedule for 6 weeks while on the road and it never synced with icloud, iphone, mac or otherwise. I did what you suggested and managed to be at the computer at the same time. Worked perfectly. WHYYYYYYY??? You're right. Very annoying bug. This happened almost a year after your post.....!!!!!???

I keep adding events on my Mac, or on Google Calendars (which needs to be visible to a large group of people), and see them on my Mac's calendar app - then when I later open my calendar on my iPad, those changes don't exist.

The next time I connect my iPad to my Mac - with the Calendars app open, the event synchronizes. I'm thinking the calendar app has to be open on my iPad for the synchronization to work.

Thanks, this helped!! 🙂

Thank you eldenfrommoure, I had the same non-sync issue with events created on my Mac not appearing on my iPad or iPhone. I checked and the default calendars on those devices did not match the default calendar on the Mac.

Once I made the default calendars match, the missing events immediately showed up on both the iPad and iPhone.

Thank you for sharing the information with us.
