Birthday Notifier

Is there any application that can show you birthdays from the contact list on the Today screen? something like the calendar today plugin that show you the appointments? I'm really frustrated because it didn't shows birthdays, i found a solution to sync it with Outlook 2007 and add all birthdays as recurring appointments but isn't there an easier way to do this? and what if i change some b-day in the contacts the calendar will be out of sync,
like this?

spd diary (and a lot of other calendar plugins) support showing birthdays mixed with the appointments. on top of that, spb diary also supports a tab with only the upcoming birthdays

[Q] How do I unsync FB birthdays from my HTC Sense calendar?

Is there a way to unsync the FB events that get put into my google calender? I would like to keep my contacts synced but I hate the calender sync. So far I have not found a separate option.
Or does anyone have the older HTC sync for Facbook that did not include the calender events?
i found it irritating too with all the birthdays on my calendar. And in your phonebook there's all your facebook phonebook in it..
alternatively, go to HTC calendar app, menu, calendars, untick Facebook
thank you for the info

[Q] Can you sync birthdays in your contacts with calendar

Hi All
My calendar is currently displaying all the birthdays from FB contacts, but i would also like it to display birthdays of contacts who aren't on FB. Can this be done and if so how?
Thanks

I add in manually the birthdays of the contacts I want. Hit edit and there should a spot for it, or at least a area for notes (put the birthday there) I've only just gotten my Sensation but on my Nexus S and Nexus One there is an entry for birthdays. Sorry if that isn't what you were looking for.

It's been my experience that if you sync with outlook & you have a birthday listed on a contact it'll sync to the calendar too.

Most of my contacts are sync from FB and the calendar displays the birthdays in FB. However i have a few contacts who don't have FB pages and i have entered their birthdays in manually in the people app. My calendar automatically displays the birthdays of my FB contacts but not the birthdays of people without FB that i have manually entered in the people app. I don't have any birthdays in my gmail and i haven't sync to my outlook as that is my work email and have no birthdays on there either. So i want the birthdays i have manually entered in the people app to display in my calendar. Can this be done automatically or do i have to enter each one manually.
Not sure if you have seen my other post, but when i enter birthdays in manually in the people app it doesn't display the correct day. For example if i manually enter 14th July 1965 and save the contact, i then displays 15th July 1965. So it's always a day ahead.

It works for me too. However, if I create the Contact on the phone with birthday included and then sync with Outlook, the contact will be created on Outlook, but w/o the birthday and will thus neither show the birthday on Outlook Calendar nor on the Phone Calendar.
Very strange.

interesting. I guess I should've stated that was when using WM, haven't tried it on Android like that. Good to know. I'll have to test this as well.

[Q] Facebook event sync problem

Hey everyone,
I'm having a lot of problem syncing facebook events to my calendars recently. When I sync facebook via HTC sense all my events appear an hour later then their actual start time. (I guess something to do with daylight savings) While if I try to export the events to ical a bunch of them are not syncing.
Any suggestions how to get my facebook events appearing properly either way?
Thanks

Subject : Facebook Calender Sync / Book Shelf
I am having problems syncing Facebook Calender items with my calender.
In the Sony Xperia range I used FB Sync, Event Sync for Facebook and Calender Sync for Facebook.
Also with regards to Bookshelf, Im using Moon Reader. Any recommendations over this?
