Google Calendar Sync Issues - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So on my Nexus 5, my Calendar syncs fine, but on my Note Pro, it doesn't even show up as an option... I go under accounts in settings, click my Google account for sync options and Calendar is not one of them. It has everything else like Gmail etc but not Calendar. I have the Calendar app installed, I am signed in. But it refuses to sync. Am I missing something here?

Calendar question

I have a question about the calendar app in 2.1 on the hero. If I have 2 google accounts with a personal calendar on one and a business calendar on the other account, I know that I can link both accounts to the phone so that I can sync the calendars down from google to the phone. So when you go to the calendars option in the calendar setting it shows 3 calendars, google personal, google work, and my calendar. The question is this. Is there any to create an appointment and have it only sync with the personal google calendar? Would I have to go to the calendar settings and uncheck the other 2, make the appointment and sync it and the check the other 2 again?

Yes, just use the top drop down menu when you add an event. By default it will only publish to one calendar, you just need to tell it which one. Personal you would use that calander, work, you select that one.
Hope that helps
edit: You can also go to the web calendar app and link your work calendar so you can "see" it on your personal one. Then when you use that google account on the phone the work calendar will appear in the "view calendar" menu. I do this for my wife's calendar and I can post to hers as well, I just have to tell the phone which calendar to add the event to when I create it, all from one google account.

exchange server

will not sync with exchange server calendar, but works fine with email and contacts. anyone else having this issue?
I had the same thing happen to me. I went into calendar and unchecked all my calendars. Then I deleted the Exchange Account and set it up again. This time it synced up with my EAS calendar fine. I think mine was that I am syncing with some google calendars and EAS. After that I check my google calendars and they all came back.

thanks for the feedback; I did try deleting the account and reinstalled without any other calendars. strange thing is I have three exchange accounts and this new phone with HTC new Sense allows you to sync more than one exchange account, the other two worked just fine it is my main account that is not working with calendar only. I will try it again in the order that worked for you and see what happens,
update: it didn't work, there must be something with that one account, strange it will sync with my other phone and my Galaxy Tab

[Q] Sync Calender?

So I have 2 main email Adresses conected with my Phone.
One is my Xbox live account and the second one is the Primary calender and Gmail account I use. Both are Gmail Accounts.
The Problem is that the calender syncs neither of those accounts.
How do I fix that?
it is set to Sync in the options.
Thanks in advance!
wp7 can currently sync the 'main' calendar from any of your email accounts. It wont sync either of them? It should be able to sync both calendars if you want to (only the primary calendar for each).
Thanks for the quick reply
so I tested it with both accounts. It does sync the calender if I enter the date on the pc, but it does not sync it back to the gmail calender if I create the event on the phone.
hmm..that is weird. I put things on my phone all the time, and they end up in my online calendar as well. Although I just use my hotmail calendar.
Try unchecking the sync with calendar box, and redoing it. I really don't know why it only sync's one way, maybe somebody else can chime in?
I know thats the weird thing.
So i did some testing the primary email acc is the [email protected] addy, but the main acc I use is the other one.
If i use the calender on gmail it wont work, but it will copy from the hotmail cal to the phone but not back to the hotmail cal.
And my main acc doe not sync at all.
it is very weird, maybe because I have two accs?
I just tested with my Google Calendar. Put in an appointment on phone, and it was up online within seconds.
Then I deleted that event online, and was taken off phone. I then added a different one online, and it was sent to the phone calendar almost instantly.
Worked very well, so not sure whats causing your issue

Calendar Problems

I am having problems syncing all my calendars. I sync two google accounts with multiple calendars in each (my calendars). The problems is, that the second google account does not show all the calendars on the phone in calendar.
Also, I use Agenda Widget that I use as a calendar replacement. Under its options, it actually lists the missing calendars, but even if i check them, they do not show up.
So I deleted a bunch of my calendars that I use less, hoping that maybe it was something like it only allows a certain number of calendars. The second account will only sync the main calendar, not the other calendars i have under "my calendars"
I just upgraded from a myt3g running yoshi, and I did not have this problem with either the calendar or the agenda widget app.
tldr; my phone only syncs my primary calendar and nothing else from "my calendars"

Calendar events not showing - only birthdays

I have my Google account syncing just fine on the phone, but when I go to Calendar app to view what my agenda shows for the day, nothing shows except the birthdays.
I have tried adding the account again but zmesssge says "Account already installed."
I've looked in the app to see what calendars get shown and all I see is the phones contacts.
How do I get my Google calendar appointments to show up and not just birthdays.
Thanks very much.
PS - I'm not having syncing problems like other users have posted, it's just that nothing shows up, only birthdays.
Are you using Google calendar app or default Huawei...?
I'm using Google Calendar but it doesn't show up as one of the calendars listed even though the account is installed on the phone.
I've always used my Google calendar as my default on my phone without installing any extra app as the entries normally just sync via Account settings.
I know I can download and install the actual Google Calendar app but would rather just have everything sync with the default installed calendar app.
