Am I misunderstanding how Apple's iCloud works?
I use my gmail calender for all my devices i.e. link it with iCal on my iPad, my iMac, Windows Laptop and Android phone. Normally what appears on one instantly appears on them all. However, following installation of iOS7 on the iPad I notice calendar events weren't syncing. It took me ages of poking around to realise that the box for syncing calendar to iCloud had been ticked on the iPad following the OS upgrade.
Unticking the box started all my devices talking to each other again re: calendar events. I'm still puzzled by why the iCloud box being ticked should stop the devices syncing calendar events. I thought one of the functions of the cloud was that what was on one device was then made available to all?
