I have converted to the iphone 5 from a blacknerry and while i am familiar (so to speak) with the iphone (i had the original and have an ipad and help my gf with her iphone), i need some help. i need to import my yahoo and google calendars and for some reason, all of the entries are not showing up. i researched how to add a calendar, and have followed the steps ad nausem and multiple calendars on google are not showing up and my yahoo calendar does not either. am i missing something? i have my son, daughter, and gf calendars all on yahoo and google and have had to look at my now retired bb to see calendars. help!!!

I followed the google instructions with sync and selected the calendars, but they do not populate in the calendar...and yes, i have selected all the calendars on the top left, but only the yahoo calendar appears; not the google calendars

Are you setting up your google account at exchange, not just gmail?

When doing this the server should be m.google.com

ok, here's the latest. "my" calendar from google calendars is showing up but not the other two I am subscribed to under google calendars (my kids school calendars). I used the google sync method through safari and checked off the additional calendars, but they are not showing up

I tried to set up the google account at exchange but it did not work. I will try that again

I think you have to have it setup as exchange to sync calendars. I'm not 100% sure but glad you got it to work.
