Serious calendar app

I synchronize my calendar through Activesync. I have been trying to modify some appointments (Change the time or just move them from one day to another). It seems the only option I have is to delete the appointment
Needless to say that it is not acceptable for a professional phone / tablet...
Am I doing it wrong, or if not is there a real Calendar app available somewhere ? (I guess Touchdown one works but I don't really like the look of Touchdown and was wodnering if there is anything else)

Have you looked at Pocket Informant?
It's in beta right now and available in the market...

Agree, i cant find a calender that suits me either...

Jorte (market app) is pretty nice. I like the widgets, too. It can definitely edit events, but then I though that should work with every calendar. Never used activesync, though.
PS: only minor downside is the sometimes rough English (clearly not native speaker), but it did get a lot better with updates.

Good idea thanks. I was using it on WM before Microsoft improved theirs
Honestly with Android I feel the same as I did when i started with WM and before MSFT improved it: too many extra apps to install to ahve a decent system...

I'm using PI. I like better than stock.
It has tasks integrated plus I had to get away from the wood theme

I don't believe that PI has any direct interaction w/ Exchange but rather it mirrors the native android calendar for the sync'd data and offers a better UI to manage the data.

I guess Touchdown solves both the calendar and the contact apps...
However it's ugly too...

Agreed... ugly as sin...

I have used Pocket Informant from Webis for years on my pocket pc, then switched to there App for the Itouch and now I am running it on my Tab. It works great and is currently in beta for free it is worth a look.

Have you tried Business Calendar. It's still in beta, but very pretty. Has a nice widget that shows you your next 3 appointments, and then month/week/day view for all your calendars combined.

[Q] Looking for a app to sync notes between devices

I am looking to find a program that will allow me to sync todo lists, notes and grocery lists between me and my girlfriend. Free would be nice. What does everyone recommend?

Evernote

Springpad and Catch are also worth looking at.

definitely reccomend Gtasks. Everything syncs with gmail so you'll never loose your tasks when changing phones.

My wife and I use Our Groceries, which is pretty much our only option, because she has an iPhone and it's the only app I've found that will sync our lists across my Nexus S and her iPhone 4.

Springpad is the best. Evernote is polished but isn't really intuitive

I'm using Springpad and quite like it

+1 for gtasks. But -7 for the price.

Catch is free, and available on both iPhone and Android (and web) https://catch.com/

Confused by the choices. However springpad has a upper hand since it also has to do list.

Springpad for me as it allows you to access notes when you don't have an internet connection, also has iPhone/iPad app.
Gx

+1 for Catch
Hello,
I don't know about task list/todo functionality (don't think it has that) but I really like Catch. Is an awesome notes application, and I've used the same account over an iphone and two android phones (and kept the same persistent notes all the way through, has been great!). As well, it has decent browser access, so you can access/create/edit notes on your pc. You can attach pictures to notes as well in the free version. All notes will be stored on both your phone and on catch servers, thus no worries regarding losing them. (If you work for the CIA, I wouldn't use Catch to store state secrets, but don't think the average user needs to worry )
As the base version is free, I'd definitely check it out! Easy for yourself and your girlfriend to sign in to the same catch account, then you share the same notes

Very Useful Calendar App?

Hey, I was wondering if anyone uses their Fire as a day planner of sorts... I use mine for notes and stuff already and was wondering if anyone knows of a useful calendar app that would sync between my Kindle and my phone.. Also, my notes don't sync either, so if you know of an app that does that, it would be a bonus!
Thanks in advance!
By the way, I'm rooted, but running stock, but do have regular market

I use cozi on my KF, Blackberry, and computer. They all sync together immediately when a change is made. I sync my college calendar and my daughters school calender into it as well. My wife uses it on her phone and computer also so we both know each others schedules. She works first shift and i work second plus going to college so its been perfect for us. It has calendar, to do lists, and shopping lists. I used to forget to tell her to pick something up at the store when she went shopping. Now i just put it on cozi when i think of it and she sees it on her phone when she goes. There is a free with ads version and a paid with no ads version. You can download it on amazon for the KF and at their website for your phone and computer.

this other i could not install, i just fine its avaliable on Russias market, and i use market enabler but when i put install, there its a messages is not avaliable on your country.. IF somebody can install it, maybe he or she can share with me?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...eature=search_result&rdid=com.play.wlm&rdot=1

You could just try one of the many multi-protocol IM apps which support Live Messenger.
Trillian
Meebo
imo
eBuddy
You'll have to search for them because it's not letting me post links until I have 8 posts.

Did you try official one ?
"Messenger With you"
I also use another one called "Nimbuzz"

I use Mercury. I think this is the best windows messenger

Dropbox Question

I am unable to figure out how to get Dropbox for Android to automatically upload files from a directory that I specify...
The only thing that it auto uploads is pictures...
Does that capability exist?
I am running DB v2.1.10 on Android v4.1.1
Thanks...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

The DropSync app from the Play Store is the only reliable app I've found with full 2-way sync capability. I don't know why Dropbox didn't include that feature in the official app, but whatever. Anyway, DropSync has a free version of the app, but imho, it's worth getting the pro version.
