FIX: iCloud Contacts, Calendar and Reminders are not showing

Keeping your data synced is important, however, many users claim that iCloud Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders aren’t showing on Mac. This can be a problem, but there are several solutions you can use to fix this problem.

What to do if iCloud Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders aren’t showing?

1. Check if iCloud Contacts, Calendars, and Reminder services are running

Sometimes the iCloud Contacts, Calendars, and Reminders apps aren’t showing up because there’s a server-side issue with the services. To check if these services are running, be sure to check the System Status page.

If there’s an issue with one of these services, you just have to wait for Apple to fix the problem on the server-side.

2. Add a random item

If you’re having issues with missing Reminders, you might be able to fix the problem simply by creating a random reminder. By doing so, you’ll force the synchronization to occur and missing reminders should appear on other devices as well.

Several users reported that this worked for Reminders, but you can also use this workaround for Contacts and Calendar.
