If your events are not appearing in Calendars, don't worry—your data is secure. Calendars syncs with your external accounts like iCloud, Google, Outlook, and Local. Occasionally, events might not show up immediately due to a synchronization issue. Your events are still intact; they just require some assistance to be displayed correctly. Please follow the steps below to resolve this and get your events showing in your app again.
Check your external calendar
To confirm your events are visible on the connected calendar’s side, start by checking them directly through the account you’ve connected:
- iCloud events: Open the native Calendar app on your device or visit iCloud.com.
- Google events: Open the Google Calendar app or visit calendar.google.com.
- Outlook events: Check via the Outlook Calendar app or online at Outlook.com.
Re-log into your account
Click ‘Calendars’ in the top left of the screen > proceed to Preferences > Accounts at the top > select the account and log out, then log back in.
Open Calendars > tap Menu (three horizontal lines) skip this step on your iPad* > Settings > Accounts > select the account and log out, then log back in.
Check local calendars
If you’re using a Local Calendar to sync your events in Calendars, toggling the display settings can help refresh the sync:
Click ‘Calendars’ in the top left of the screen > proceed to Preferences > Accounts at the top > select the account and log out, then log back in.
Open Calendars > tap Menu (three horizontal lines) > Settings > Local Calendars > toggle the Display Local Calendars option off, then back on.
Verify Sync Settings for the iOS Native Calendar App
If you’re using a Local Calendar, ensuring your sync settings are set correctly can resolve the issue: go to your device’s Settings > Calendar > Sync and select All Events.
