Apple Calendar

Events not showing in Apple Calendar

Check subscription visibility, iCloud account, and refresh settings when Apple Calendar events are missing. Avoid re-adding the feed before checking the existing subscription.

First check that the subscribed calendar is selected in Apple Calendar's Calendars list. Then compare a known event with its listing on Sync2Cal to see whether the problem is visibility, delivery, or the source schedule.

Check the calendar and account

Make sure the calendar is still subscribed, rather than only a downloaded file that you imported. An import does not receive ongoing changes. If the calendar is missing from the list, follow Apple setup once.

If events appear on another device, check whether the subscription was stored locally or in iCloud. Use the multiple-devices checklist before adding a second copy.

Refresh and check a specific event

On iPhone or iPad, open Calendar > Calendars and swipe down on the list. On Mac, choose View > Refresh Calendars. Check the same event date again. For a Mac subscription, Get Info also lets you inspect its Auto-refresh setting.

These steps request a refresh; they do not guarantee immediate delivery or correct an event that is missing on Sync2Cal itself. There is no fixed one-hour wait that applies to every Apple subscription. See how updates work.

Check the source and your access

If the event is absent from the Sync2Cal calendar page, send us the official source and event date. If Sync2Cal shows a paused subscription or an account-access message, address that in your account; repeatedly refreshing Apple Calendar will not restore access.

If you used a downloaded file, switch to a subscription to receive future updates. Check for duplicate copies before cleaning up the old import.

If the problem continues, email hello@sync2cal.com with your device, calendar page, and one affected event. Tell us whether the subscription appears in Apple's calendar list. Do not include the private subscription URL.

Frequently asked questions

Should I remove and re-add the subscription first?⌄

Check visibility, account, source events, and subscription status first. Re-adding before identifying the problem can create an extra copy.

Can I force a schedule change to appear instantly?⌄

Refreshing asks the app to check for updates, but does not guarantee immediate delivery. The change must first be available from Sync2Cal.
