It is possible to sync a calendar, that do not support have a ics format or something like that on the URL, it's looks like a database that they uploaded to the site.
Is there some program that you can use to manipulate the URL so you can sync it with your phone ?
It's a Oneplus One
Thanks.

As per title anyone aware of a way to link google calendar to your ppc,
either pocketbrezze or your standard pim etc

I have seen readers, but these do not sync with the internal calendar, which I assume you want to do (as I do too).
I am really surprised there is no simple way to sync an ical profile with either Outlook or Pocket Outlook.
I know you can sync with a public profile on your desktop, but I doubt everyone wants to make their calendars public, and still doesn't help for people on the move.
An alternative would be to stop using Google Calendar for now until more solutions are available, and set-up a Live Mail2Web account, and simply use their Outlook Web Access for your calendar needs, and put the sync profile in your Activesync.

It's the only good all round solution to online contacts backup, calendar sync, and push mail, and all from one provider, and free of charge too.
Nice one mate ill look into that :wink:
Remote Calendars
I've been using an open source program called Remote Calendars.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/remotecalendars/
it synchs your google calendar to outlook which can then be synched to your PPC.
you can also synch the other way (i.e. put something in your PPC and have it transferred to Google)
it's not a perfect system but it's the best i've found
Am I right in thinking you still have to make your calendar public for this application to work though?
No google calendars have two addresses:
a public one - which you can disable and
a private one - which you should never give to anyone else or publish anywhere
you can get your private address from the Calendar Details page of the settings menu. this is what you use for Remote Calendars
so your calendar is still private (or shared with family & friends etc)
woohhhoooooooo :lol:
Google Calendar Sync
This only works for main calendar:
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.

My work has turned off the USB ports on our computers. Therefore, I can no longer sync my phone via activesync with Outlook. I've been looking and cannot find a simple way of exporting my contacts and calendar to something that I can then sync my phone to, while preserving all of the data included.
Can someone recommend something that will do this while preserving contact pictures and calendar categories, etc?
FYI, I'm using WinMo 6.5
Thanks.
Upload them online to either Windows Live account or Gmail account.
Gmail preferred. It will store your contacts, calendar, etc.
Otherwise try PIMBackup
I should have stated, that I need to get the contacts and calendar off of my work PC. I know about google sync for calendars, but there isn't something similar for contacts.
The only methods that I have found do not save categories or contact pictures. I'd like to find something that equals what activesync can do when it transfers new info to my phone.
How to SYNC internet bookmark with gmail/google
Anybody knows how to do this ?
My idea is that I have some internet bookmarks on my device, and I want these automatically synched with my google/gmail account.
So if I flash my Flyer and make a full wipe , I want my internet bookmarks automatically uploaded into my Flyer just like my contacts would.
Any ideas or tips ?

The 2 ways that i have done this so far are either use opera browser for everything and use the sync on that (works ok actually) or use Dolphin browser and the dolphin bookmarks to sd app to sync from gmail account (not automatic).
You would of thought with it been Android and Google they would of made it like the Google Chrome browser so that everything is synced with your account.
In your favourites of IE on your PC, make a new folder named as "HTC bookmarks"
Add in the sites you want to bookmark in this folder.. sync using HTC sync.. it will automatically put all on the phone and add from the phone to the IE..
I have my Samsung Focus S set to sync calendar appointments from my Google calendar ONLY (all my other calendars on the phone that can be turned on or off, i.e. Windows Live Calendar, Windows Live Birthday Calendar, Windows Live US Holidays, etc, are turned OFF), yet I have SOME appointments or events that appear on my Google calendar that just do NOT sync to my phone! Most do, but there are appointments on my Google calendar that just will not show-up on my WP calendar. Specifically, I have an event that I created in Outlook (I use Google calendar sync to copy all my Outlook appointments to my Google calendar, via a one-way Outlook to Google calendar sync) on December 26th, 2011, and it just will NOT show-up on the calendar on my phone! I recreated it in Outlook (it then showed-up twice on 12/26 in my Google calendar), and I actually created it in my Google calendar, without it being synced from Outlook, and it STILL won't show-up on the phone's calendar. I created it on my phone, and it duplicated itself on my Google calendar (showed-up as a seperate event from the original)!
Why won't certain appointments/events show-up in my phone's calendar when they are clearly showing-up in my Google calendar?!! As I said, MOST appointments/events from my Google calendar show-up in my phone's calendar, but not all.
Anybody have this issue, or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Dennis
having same problem driving me nuts
I have read and read can't find a fix
workaround/fix
I found a way to enable this, I had to go to m.google.com/sync to enable it. But the kicker is our phones aren't able to access the page needed. I had to use my fiance iphone and login and enable the calendar. So going forward you have to use another mobile device.
You don't have to use a mobile device at all; just spoof your User-Agent string in your browser. Google web-programming fail (you'd think they wouldn't suck at that...).

O.K., this might be a stupid question, but what does "spoof your User-Agent string in your browser" mean?
Dennis
I think he means the workaround, where you use (for example) the safari browser on a desktop pc, configure it to identify itself as the iphone's browser and then go to m.google.com/sync to setup the syncing of multiple calendars.
This was necessary, because it was not possible to do this with the internet explorer on your windows phone. Yet as far as I know, this is workaround is no longer necessary.
User-agent: Any user-driven client of a network server (so, for example, a web browser).
User-agent string (UAS): A bit of text that identifies the user-agent to the server. Theoretically allows distinguishing between browsers easily.
Spoof the user-agent string: Configure the browser to send a different user-agent string than normal. All major browsers can do this now, as far as I know. On WP7, there are only two user-agent string possible with the built-in browser, though - the default "mobile" one and the "desktop" one (the latter being very similar to the UAS of IE9 on the PC).
If you send the UAS of mobile Safari, Google will give you access to the features (such as multiple calendars) that it offers to iOS users.
If I'm browsing a webpage that I want to stick on my calendar for later review, I have to share it to gmail or manually copy the web address and then go to cal to create a new event. I'd like to share it directly to a calendar entry. Anyone know of an app to do so?
