Signed up for Mobile Me. Items that I've added to my Mac calendar aren't going over to the iPhone.
I have the iPhone set for Push and my account under advanced is set to Push mail, contacts and calendars via my .me address.

I synced my iPhone with my Mac via usb and some calendar events came over and some didn't.

How can I solve this dilemma.
Thanks.
Frank

Actually no. When I log on, it goes to the Summary Page. No matter whether I hit calendar or Mail, etc, it goes back to the Summary Page.
Thoughts?

First I would back up calendar/contacts just to be safe

Turn off push for now on your phone (it will erase items on phone)
go into your MM preferences
click the sync tab
go into advanced
then click reset sync data

Hopefully after this completes your Mac/me.com will be insync

then turn on iPhone syncing and hope it picks it up

We'll see what happens. I set it to sync from the computer to MM?? Sounds right to me??
I do want items from my Mac to go to MM. Sound correct??

That sounds right, this should force it to overwrite everything on MM with whats on your Mac

Well, I can bring up my mail and calendar in MM, and my mail gets there, but my calendar is kinda shot. Seems my Mac Calendar is ok, but there is only basic stuff on my MM Calendar. I have upcoming vacation, car rental, and restaurant info on my Mac that I'd love to have on MM and my iPhone, but none of that is here. Do I have to wait a while for it to "push" over to it??

It should be there almost immediately

the only other thing i can think of

Back up your calendar
Do the sync reset, but say MM calendar is the one you want putting on your mac
Then restore your calendar and see if the changes going back to MM

Does any of this matter if there are .mac and .me's both shown??

Now I'm really weirded out.
I added a contact to my Address Book on my Mac. It shows up on MM and my iPhone. My wife sends emails and they show up on Mail and MM. But nothing with the Calendar.

That had no effect on my Calendar on my Mac.... it's like they don't communicate.

Calendar on MM now goes to my iPhone, but ALL of my stuff is on my Mac.
Thoughts.

I think I have it resolved. I may have been using the wrong Sync today. I was using the MM Sync that I have in the upper right tray. I called Apple Care... I have a support plan. He had me open up iSync and we went through there and merged things. I have a bunch of stuff now, but I'd rather trim it out than have to reinstall everything.
I do want to thank everyone for their thoughts today. Tough problem.
Thanks again.
