[Q] Meeting invites with Exchange don't show date or time - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

When I receive a meeting invite via MS Exchange the meeting details are not displayed (date, time, location). All I see is who sent the request and the message they typed in the body of the invite. Anybody else facing this problem with the default calendar or have a solution?
Yes! I have tried touchdown but its a bit expensive to pay just for this functionality since all the other functionalities work out of the box on the default app.
I have a ticket opened to android at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15666.

Pocket MSN -- Problem Retrieving Hotmail

Pocket MSN did not come preloaded on my PPC device (Verizon w/EVDO),
so I purchased it for $19 based upon M$'s
representation that it would automatically retrieve new messages as
long as I stay signed in to the Messenger portion of the application.
Well, that doesn't seem to be the case. I only get my messages once
per session -- immediately upon signing into Messenger. After that,
Messenger continues to indicate that I am "online" but no new email
messages are received. I have to manually sign out and the sign back
in again for the messages to come through.
Does anyone have any answers as to how I can get this thing working?
It would be much appreciated.

Appointment sync question

You guys where so good at helping me before I was hoping you could try again!
I have been searching for the way to fix this and the best I seem to be able to come up with on here is the Moblie2web site but this doesnt do what my wife wants (or atleast for free!)
My wife had a Curve on this I would send her my calendar and updates as I fly around this vast country of ours. She would update me on when she and the kids would be home or not. Our calendars always in syn both on the laptops and the devices (me through a blackberry server from work, her by syncing to the device and just having the calendar on the device send attendees notifications) now the atendees notifications on her Fuze go into the outlook outbox and since she does email in real time not by syncing the device the invitation sits in the outbox. Is there a way to make this invitation be sent out in the mail as it was on the Curve?
Shareo
Maybe Shareo would work for you, I use it with my wife cause she doesnt sync to often but atleast it in her outlook. The company has multiple software types and for the price its not bad at all

I do not think this will help as she wants to send me the invite right away off her mobile and this will still go into her outlook outbox rather then the mail outbox on her mobile device (the one thats sends out her email from the device.) Is there a away to just my the invites go to the correct outbox?
I hope I am reading this right.
You want to send attendees notifications via the TP? The best way I think of is to set a pop email account on TP, then in Calendar options set send notifications via that pop account.
You could try blackberry connect software and use your blackberry option if you have not cancelled you blackberry data plan yet?
I did cancel and went to the 50 data plan
I dont know what TP is ;(
See I set up her email account from our ISP
email works fine
on BB she was able to open caalendar and invite me
the invite would be auto mail through ISP email setup on bb
now the invite goes into the "Outlook Outbox" found by going to the ISP inbox then going down to the Outlook section... It sounds confusing even to me!

Exchange questions

I am new to Android. Have been a longtime WindowsMobile user. The Captivate has a menu to synchronize with exchange including mail, contacts and calenders. I got mail to work, but contacts and calender do not synch. I would assume it is officially supported since it is in the menu. Has anybody else got it to work, meaning can you pull contacts and calender from your exchange account down to your phone?
Yes, mine works fine. Is auto synch off under menu/synch?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Mine is working fine too. I went in and disabled the Contact synchronization and it looked like everything (mail, calendar, contacts) is all enabled by default. I think I remember seeing the settings when I initially set it up too. Go into your calendar and then into the settings and make sure it is displaying your exchange calendar. Same thing with the contacts.
Mine works great. In fact a little tooooo good. I have it syncing with my Google contacts and my exchange contacts. . .
One note. The client on the Captivate is not a full exchange client. That's apparently an Android V2.2 feature. That means there are some features that worked on my BB and my Nokia E72 that don't work on the Captivate. The most notable, and irratating is any http link embedded into an appointment note is treated as straight text. So if you have an airlines check in appointment, or link to a map - you can't just click on it and have a browser take you to the link. . . .or at least I haven't figure out how to make that work yet.
ok. The whole Activesync exchange seems very screwy on Android. I deleted exchange account and re-added it. Now, I can see and synch all my contacts, but I only get some of my calender items. I downloaded TouchDown, and via Touchdown I can sync my email but I do not see contacts or calender. I am pretty techsavvy, so this just baffles me.
Is it possible to look up a name against the GAL/company address book with the stock android client when composing an email message?
I have been able to "Lookup" emails through the GAL. Simply type a name in the To Field, hit search. You are taken to a new screen where you can do a lookup. One note though. I have not seen FULL integration with the GAL. For instance, our company has Email, Direct Dial, Fax, Cell, Address all entered in the AD. This makes it easy to look up phone numbers. Cant seem to get that to work in the phone search
having issues sending appointments from phone
I'm using Exchange and stock email client. I've tried to send meetings to people in my GAL, but they never receive the invite. Anyone else having the issue?\
This is a known issue with the captivate. Hopefully there is a fix on the way. It was supposed to work seemlessly out of the box, but there are some problems.

Meeting invites in Gmail bug?

I have a rule set up for my Outlook Exchange work email to automatically forward to my Gmail. On my Android Razr Maxx, (still on ICS) I see the meeting details, View and Save. When I View, I get the window to Accept (Checkmark) or Decline (X) the meeting.
On my TF300T, I see the same thing, but instead of the Accept option, I get messed up text in my Dropbox file???
Anybody know how to fix the meeting invite on this?
