iOS 7 calendar is not syncing with Exchange

Couldn't figure out where to post this - since I couldn't find a community specifically for iOS 7 bugs. Just updated my iPad (4th generation) to iOS 7. The calendar no longer syncs with Exchange now, although it sync'd just fine with iOS 6. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? If so, have you discovered a solution? Would love to see if others are experiencing the same issue. Thanks.

iPad, iOS 7

Possible solution:


Here was my situation and how I solved it...


Exchange 2013 on back end. iPhone5 w/ iOS7.


email and contacts were syncing, but not calendar.


Discovered that the email address used in Exchange was _case sensitive_ when setting up ActiveSync on the iPhone.


When setting up ActiveSync on the phone, make sure that you use proper case when spelling out usernames and email addresses. For example: flast@abc.com is NOT the same as FLast@abc.com.


At least this is what worked for me. Getting all the case correct allowed the calendar to start sync'ing.


I hope this can help someone else out.

Had the same issue on my iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 syncing to an exchange server. Email and contacts worked fine, calendar nothing. Went to mail settings - Exchange, turned the calendar off, confirmed that I wanted to delete all existing events (there weren't any anyways) and then turned calendar back on and low and behold it is working on both phones.

I had problems with my exchange account, that I'm sharing with my girlfriend. and with my mail constantly saying it couldn't recieve mail - eventhough it actually did.


I searched the net, and it seems that google is responsible for the problems...

this helped me and I hope it will help some of you as well:

I recycled my account, meaning I deleted it from 'Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts' and re-added it. That worked.


Before, when I looked at that account it only had options for Mail and Notes, neither of which I wanted. No option for Calendar. When I recycled my account, the other options appeared, including Calendar.


It took a bit to sync, but now it works.


Editorial: It's pretty lame on Apple's part that this needs to be done. Actually, that's a really poor upgrade. What else does not work? If the code I worked on did that kind of nonsense, I'd get in trouble with my boss (and he'd be right to be mad).

Thanks to all of you for your prior postings, I did try all of your solutions for a co-worker with a 5s iPhone and iOS 7.0.2. He couldn't get any Calendar data for one of our Google Calendars. We tried via Exchange and via Gmail etc. We recreated the account from scratch as Gmail. Then, we did this:


Log into your Gmail account on a computer, go to


http://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect


then check the checkbox for the calendar in question. The update started immediately.
