Have you ever tried to find something in the calendar and can't find it? Especially events that happened a few months ago and suddenly don't show up, even though you'd swear you put it on the calendar, and of course you never deleted it. It is not an error with iCloud, nor has the Gmail calendar played a trick on you with your iPhone or iPad. Don't worry, it is not that the event has been deleted, but that it is simply not shown on the calendar screen, it does not matter if it is the official one or some third-party application. Did you ever happened? Do you want to know how to solve it in case it ever happens to you? Well, all the details below.
No, actually the problem is not that the calendar deletes your events, or even that you have been able to delete them by mistake. It is simply that by default the iOS Calendar application stops showing old events, but they are still there, you have not lost any data, they simply do not appear. This is also the case with any third-party app that integrates with the iOS calendar, such as Fantastical 2, my favorite app in this category. If you want the events to never stop showing, you just have to go to Settings and configure one of its options.
In the Settings menu, within the "Mail, contacts, calendars" section, we can find, going down quite a bit through the menus, the "Synchronize events" option. There we can configure how long we want the calendar events to last on the screen. We can choose between 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months, or make all events appear regardless of their date. This is always my default option, as it never hurts to know when you did something and be able to easily search for it on your phone. Problem solved.
Hello, everything is as you say, but I can't find anything older than 14 months in the IOS calendar. The events are still there, and if I look at a specific day 2 years ago, the events appear, but the search does not find them. I will greatly appreciate your help.
Hello to me, what does not appear to me is what I wrote down at the bottom of the events, LOCATION, I made comments about the events there ... I only see those from Sep 2016 onwards. The older ones only see the event but not the comment that I wrote where it says location? I hope you can help me
This article has been great for me, I was going crazy consulting the official Apple help resources, incredible that Apple's help does not explain it or is explained so badly. Thanks a lot
Hello,
I can only search, or rather, I only find events or appointments that are equal to or less than 14 months old. I don't know the cause. It only happens to me on ios. On the mac more than 10 years.
regards
Birthdays have stopped appearing on the iPad with the last update
They all appear to me from years ago, but the search function does not find them.
regards
