Q: calendar events not visible

I've noticed that events added on my iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad are not visible on my desktop Calendar. I think the events are actually there because if I sync to the other device, it will show up there. That is it is visible on all the other devices but not the iMac. Syncing using iTunes 12.4.3.1. Mountain Lion 8.5.

 

Advice on how to fix this greatly appreciated!

    Try going to System Preferences/iCloud and stop syncing. Wait a couple of minutes, then recheck syncing.

     

     

    Have you tried signing out of iCloud and then sign back in?

    thanks for the suggestion. Actually, I've only been syncing with iTunes. Hoping I could make that work again rather than with iCloud. Any thoughts on that? thanks!

    thanks again for your help. I've tried the suggestions noted in the articles but it still isn't working. It seems to be a problem with about my iMac's calendar but I can't figure it out...

    You are welcome.  One more thing to try.

     

    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
