When I add a new item to my calendar, it saves, but doesn't show on the calendar.

I can add new items to my calendar and create alerts for them; however, whenever I go to the Calendar app and look for items I have created, they never show up. The only way I know the calendar is actually saving the items is because I get alerts when I have them set for and the items are syncing to my Outlook calendar (so I can see them on Outlook), but if I am looking for items on my phone Calendar app, they don't show. This was not a problem until about a month ago. I have shut down and reset the phone several times since the issue has started, but it is still not resolved.

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.3

Howdy squeakyred2,


If I understand correctly you are getting the alerts from the events that you are creating on your Calendar app, but they do not show in the app once they are created. It seems to me that the calendar you are adding them to may not be checked, thereby making it hidden. To check this, first open the Calendars app and tap Calendars at the bottom:

Then verify the calendars you have showing. It should look similar to this:

All the very best,
