Google Calendar

I just installed Agenda One and it's calendar synchronize just with internal Outlook calendar, not Google Calendar.
Is there any way how to synchronize Google Calendera with the Vox smartphone?
Thx.

re
Found it. This one is working great:
http://www.codeplex.com/gmobilesync/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4142

i used that app and it didn't work well for me.. when i would post something on goggle calendar it wouldn't update on my phone or vise versa.. but goosync works really well and it uses SSL encryption http://www.goosync.com/ anyway i recommand that one to sync goggle calendar

I'm using GMobileSync 1.3 , works OK, atleast sometimes. I get double meetings and stuff sometimes

Google Calendar Sync
5 March 2008 Google Calendar Sync allows you to sync events between Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook Calendar.
http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955
You can now access your Google Calendar account from your mobile phone! Just visit mobile.google.com/calendar/ with your phone's web browser and once you're logged in, you'll see your list of upcoming events with date and time information in an easy-to-browse format.

turn your winmo device into a cloud device like google phone but better

I have a setup that works great for me.
I use a beta (free) service mobipush for push gmail. http://www.mobipush.com/
I use remember the milk for tasks that can be a plugin in google calendar and sync wirelessly with your outlook mobile tasks.
https://www.rememberthemilk.com/
(there is a gadget to add RTM to your gmail screen and intergrated into google calendar.)
I use ogg sync for syncing contacts and calendar. i use the mobile app. to elimate outlook all together.

Something extra!!!
I also us Jott to add via voice tasks and calendar events to remember the milk and google calendar when I can't type. i.e. when driving.

This system gives me the cloud experiance of a google phone with the power of a winmo device

I use a very similar setup, but with polling instead of push email - I'm usually in front of a screen all day anyway.

Just a note but I use the oggsync mobile app. Googles app has you use outlook which I am trying to eliminate as a part of the process. Hopefully Google will come out with a mobile option for winmo.

Sync to outlook

Hi guys,
I just bought Samsung i5700. Has android 2.1. I use win 7, KIES and I can't sync my contacts and my calendar. For contacts only syncs 1080 contacts and in calendar none.
For me also interesting would be installing WinMobile 6.5 on this phone ... it's more easier solving.
Can i get an app or something to solve this?
Thanks

The most promising thing I know of is Android-Sync. It works similar to HTC sync. There's a desktop app and a phone side app. When you plug in the phone, it syncs.
It's pre-alpha right now, but it will sync contacts and single calendar entries. Recurring appointments are not yet supported. I'm waiting for that to be added and then I should be able to use it.

I have been using gSyncit ($14.99) from www.daveswebsite.com.
It syncs Outlook's contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes to/from Gmail. Notes have to free from special characters in order to sync (Google problem).

I've been using Google Calendar Sync. It requires a gmail account and had some trouble syncing older recurring appointments. but for the most part it works.
I use a program called "Go Contact Sync" for contacts... I have one contact that ir refuses to sync but it does alright for me besides that.
Both are free.

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestions. I would not like to share my details with Google or gmail.
The sync works super, but it would not put more than 1080 contacts . Also, in calendar widget it would show me not today's event about to come, but events for the next days. Quite tricky .
Would be nice to finalize this android app ... would work nice, not like that stupid Samsung software
Regards

wow the holy grail. Sync via USB and none of that cloud stuff.

no sync calendar possible?

Hi Folks,
i am comming from various HTC mobiles and now wanted to try an tablet.
After a few days of research I came to the Acer A700 and orderd me one.
First everything was fine - the I synced the tablet with Outlook 2010 using myPhoneExplorer. I do not want to use google for syncing. There is too many data in my contacts and calendar I do not want show up in whatsoever net.
Contacts working fine, the Calendar sync was also successful, but I found no way to display the contacs. I was alwas asked for a google account.
Does anyone here has an idea how I can get a sync calender working on this device? I tried pocket informant and the build in calender to test. I reset the tab and tried to create a new appointment - choosing a local calender - it was not possible. the question for a google account again.
Any other ideas? Otherwise the Tab will go back on monday.
Best Regards
Umqi

Not sure. I use the Touchdown app for all of my Exchange sync, because I didn't want ANY mixing of my work information with my personal. Works great.

Hi,
I tried it with my google account, but without syncing outlook to google no appointments are shown in the A700 Calender nor with any other calendar app. I think it will go back to amazon tomorrow.

[Q] Why New Contacts App Has Syncing Issues?

Some of my newer contacts are not synching with either my Google Contacts or my Outlook.com contacts. I'm on a Nexus 5 running Android 5.1.
I use Outlok.com for my primary repository for contacts and calendars, however I use GSyncit add-on for MS Outlook (desktop) to sync my desktop Outlook contacts and calendars to Google. This way I can use Outlook.com or Google Calendar / GMail to access/share my calendar and access contacts depending on the situation.
Everything is working fine on the desktop end so that is irrelevant to this problem (so probably shouldn't even have wrote the above paragraph - but just in case.)
I see there is a new Google Contacts app on the phone and on the web. I noticed this when I clicked on the People app and it said the app was missing. When I go to the web version of Google Contacts via my Google account, there are no contacts there! All my contacts are still in Gmail though of course.
I see that when I attempt to edit an older contact on the phone, it first prompts me with which Google account I want to sync with. I don't need to sync my phone contacts directly with Google, I just want to sync with Outlook.com -> Outlook -> Google (via GSyncit) but I suppose it wouldn't cause a problem if I just had the phone sync to both accounts (probably will then need to disable GSyncit contact sync between Outlook desktop and Google).
What is weird is that it is like Google made the mistake of launching this new contacts app, but there's no notice or migration instructions on the changes with the new app. I just happend to discover something was "unhooked" by trying to edit a contact! I just discovered the new Contacts app on the web by Googling, Google Contacts. I'm technically saavy and somewhat of an Android Wonk, and am surprised this is all a surprise!
Do I have to go try to edit every single contact on the mobile Contacts app now to select which Google account it syncs with? I HOPE NOT!

At the risk of appearing dumb I'm leaving my original post for background. It appears this is (not surprisingly) all a Microsoft issue. When I went into the Outlook.com app on my phone, when you click on the Contacts and Calendars Sync setting, nothing happens! Come to find out this app is no longer on the play store. It appears to have been replaced earlier this year by the Microsoft Outlook Preview. Installed that app, and it doesn't and an account type to the phone! So it appears, unlike the Outlook.com app, it won't sync calendars and contacts with the native Android calendar and contacts app. It's as if Microsoft is trying to make you use their new app instead of the stock Android apps that just sync with the Outlook.com account? Please say this isn't so!

Microsoft confirmed.

Title: How To Sync Contacts & Calendars with Native Android Phone Apps?
Reply
Hi,
Unfortunately , by design, it is not yet possible to sync your Android phone contacts to your Outlook.com account.
Note: At the moment, you can only sync Outlook.com contacts to your android phone.
Please provide your suggestions/opinion as a feedback to the development team. To do this, click on the gear icon on the top right corner of Outlook.com homepage and select 'feedback' from the dropdown menu.
Hope this information is helpful.

However, this isn't that big of a deal as I come to find out, even though there is no longer an Outlook.com account type on the phone any more, you can use the Exchange account type and use server address: s.outlook.com and then you can sync everything. Why the MS Tech didn't point this out it baffling.
(big middle finger for you Microsoft)
