I just got the Note 3 but have not activated yet from Verizon
in the past, the Google Calendar on Android phones would only sync the last 2 weeks and nothing older
Does that still happen with the Note 3?
has anyone tried to sync with outlook 2010 Calendar?
I don't use Google Calendar but I sync my Note 3 calendar with Outlook 2010 calendar. I use MyPhoneExplorer 1.8.5 to sync my calendar and contacts from Outlook 2010. It works quite good. It has an option to review the changes before the program actually synchronize. I can review and spot any problems before it begins.

I've used CompanionLink ( http://www.companionlink.com ) for years with good luck. The downside is it's creeped up to about $50 now, I believe.
I did the google calendar sync and it synced the last 1 year; but nothing before that. I double checked to make sure the entries were in the Desktop Google Calendar and they are but Not on the phone
I would like it to sync all entries from the last several years
I've been using TouchDown for several years now and it works great. Especially if the Exchange server you are connecting to doesn't allow activesync connections. I can't recommend it enough.

Two Outlook Calendars
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have expanded our company and we are now keeping 2 calendars in our outlook. We have 4smartphone set up and it syncs both of our outlook calendars with no problems.
I am trying to get both of the calendars to sync to my phone..
Is it possible to sync two calendars, from the same outlook program to the phone.
We have set up 2 calendars within the same running version of outlook and we can view them both at the same time side beside etc but they do not seem to sync to the phone.
Anyone got an idea on how to make this work?
THanks

I think it's possible, but you risk duplicating all the entries between the two.
So, what happens is you sync Calendar A, then Calendar B. Then when you sync after that, because your device has only one calendar database, it syncs ALL the appoinments from both A & B to each on your PC.
Hope it made sense, but to do it, it should be just a matter of setting up a connection twice, one for each.
2 Calendars
I understand what you are saying, but i think i might not have been clear.
In Outlook 2007 you can have as many sub-calendars as you want.
We are now using 2,
Calendar 1 syncs with 4smartphone.net and syncs with my phone using 4smartphone.net
Calendar 2, which is a sub calendar syncs with 4smartphone.net just fine, but doesnt sync with my phone.
I guess my question would really be, how to sync a sub calendar and main calendar with my phone.

Sorry, missed the part about using a seperate server. I thought you meant through AS or WMDC, try contacting your server.
server
no its not on a seperate server
i have 1 program of outlook running on my desktop
within outlook i have 2 calendars open
with outlook 2007 you can have as many sub calenders as you want.
all the sub folders sync with my 4smartphone.net account no problems at all
but when i activesync it only takes the main calendar...
i need it to sync the subs also, like
email
you can pick which folders to sync but there is no option for calendars to do teh same.
Maybe if you had two different activesinc .....????? I really don't know but you would have to figure out how to have one activesinc syncronize one calendar and another activesinc sycronize the other but I have no idea how you would set this up. If there is another program out there that can also syncronize then use activesinc for one and the other for the other calendar.
Just thought, but I really don't even know if anything like this would be possible. I might just be right out in left field with this line of thinking.
Alright, how many .pst files do you have for outlook, and check what options you have for syncing the calendar through AS.

I have several calendars, contacts and task folders that I sync. Use pocket mirror professional. I do believe this is what you need. There is a trial demo so give it a shot. A valuable tool for myself.
I have all this in 1 .pst file
just extra sub calendars
I have searched for this in the last 2 hours and still cannot find a solution
this is my setup:
I sync my HTC Diamond to my Work and Home PC's via ActiveSync. I have also synced my phone to my mail2web account.
I now want to sync my Outlook Express on both PC's to my mail2web account so that any changes I make to Contacts, Calendar or Notes will be automatically synced no matter where I am. (not interested in syncing emails as I have a mailboxes setup on my phone which im fine with).
I have looked at various things like synchronica, funambol, etc. I have tried adding the mail2web account to my Outlook but it does not work. Can anyone help me regarding this?
thanks
A bit late and I'm quite sure you already found out out to enable multiple PC synchronisation and one exchange sync.

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.
Now that I have google calendar and contacts syncing with outlook via companion link - I saw an option on one of the accounts for syncing with hotmail. I haven't used hotmail for syncing with outlook calendars or contacts, only for email in the past.
Seems like android should be more friendly with the droid since it's a google product (long standing bugs unresolved, like DST problems with the free google cal sync), but wasn't sure if anyone here was using hotmail / live instead to sync calendars and contacts with outlook? I have 90 days to return the companion link software but thought I would check here before laying down the $50.
I think I'm confused on something...
I use both Gmail and hotmail's exchange settings on my mobile and calendars and contacts sync perfectly. The same should apply to outlook without a third party application, I think

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I don't have an exchange server, I am using pop mail and a local outlook pst database file for my calendar. Sounds like you are on exchange and that's a different animal... but I think the outlook connector might act as an exchange server for windows live/hotmail/outlook syncing.
Ah OK. Could you connect to hotmail's exchange server? m.Hotmail.com
Should be able to sync that way

Oh, now that's funny.... outlook connector does not sync outlook calendars to the windows live one, you have to open the windows live calendar in outlook to modify it. Yet the google program does sync the data within the native outlook calendar... go figure. I can't figure why they all messed with things like active sync that just directly synced your device to your outlook database on your local computer and thought it would be so splendidly awesome to go cloud. Yipee.
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.
