Mac Air Calendar can't post events

When I add events to the iCloud Calendar on my Air, it will not propagate to other iCloud devices. However, events added at my desktop or Iphone will go to the Mac Air. The account setting on the Air is set to "Push".

Possibly related, but not as critical, it takes my Iphone several minutes (often as many as 30-60) to receive events that are made on another device.

Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), MacAir Yose 10.10, IPad, Iphone5

Please try the following...

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Tried all that, nothing. One thing I have noticed, when entering events the spinning rainbow of death spends a lot of time in place as I enter - typing takes awhile to com in, and the "I'm thinking about it" moving icon in the top left of calendar is constant - not just when I'm entering data, but always. Like the calendar is constantly looking for something.
