Hi cella


This has happened to me too before.


The first thing I would do is try and isolate the problem: Is it an iPad problem with iCloud or a problem with iCloud generally?


So open up a browser on your computer and go to www.icloud.com and login with your Apple ID and password.


Once logged in: Go to "Calendar" and see if the missing calendar entries on your iPad are showing in iCloud.


If they are - then iCloud is not working at all.


If they are present - then we can conclude that the iPad has stopped syncing from iCloud.


What do you use on your home computer for calendar? Outlook on Windows or iCal (now called Calendar if you use a Mac with Mountain Lion).


While in iCloud on the web - try adding a calendar entry. Just double-click on a day. Then run the program you usually use on your computer. Did your new calendar entry sync down to your PC? It normally takes a minute or two at most.


If it synced OK - then we can focus on the iPad.


The simplest thing to do is sign out of iCloud and sign back in.


If that works - then great.


If that does not work - then try turning off the calendar sync option under iCloud settings on the iPad. You'll be asked what you want to do with the previous calendar entries. Choose keep.


Sign out again. Sign back in. Turn back on Calendar sync.


Lastly, if all else fails. Try a hard reset of your iPad. Hold down both the home button and the on/off button for 10-20 seconds. The apple logo will appear and then disappear. The iPad will turn off completely. Wait a few seconds and then turn it on as usual. It will take longer to switch on then normal as you have effectively done a full shutdown and reboot.


Good luck.

      St Christopher's shop

      By Pugwash · Posted

      The rent of the shop is enormous- the landlord almost doubled it when they had to renew the lease. St. C's had to make a decision as to whether to pay the increased rent or find alternative premises. The refurbishment has greatly improved the shop's layout. Husband now buys most of his stuff from the Lewisham branch as much cheaper and also sell CDs and LPs. The Penge and Sydenham stores have a more limited range but also lower prices.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      That's a cop out.  You are talking about managing the economy.  Previous regimes are relevant.  You are calling for austerity.  I have questioned this.  This is a forum not a soap box.  Although it feels more like the latter on some other threads 😕

      @malumbu as your questions would take us off topic on so many tangents, I will defer my response to a more appropriate thread.

      @vladi it would be good to hear your views on my comments (a) the damage to society of austerity and (b) how poorly the Tories handled our economy prior (and post if you like) Covid Do you believe in climate change and if so what should we be doing?  I'd disgusted by Badenock aping Reform.
