I have searched and although I can find similar references, my question has not been covered...
I have set up a sync from my Outlook Calendar to my Google calendar, but when I select that calendar on my Hero, it is blank (even though on my computer it is populated.) Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong, please?
Thank you, in advance.
My google calendar didnt start working properly (adding in public holidays etc) until I opened it manually added an event on the add event screen changed to the google calendar in the dropdown at the top.
Apart from checking your google account settings on the phone are correct / match the only other thing I can think of is http://www.google.com/sync/pc.html and do it backwards.

Hi all,
playing with the Hero. I am syncing my google calendar with my Hero and anything I add to the google calendar gets sync'd down to the Hero, but if I delete something on there Hero it doesn't seem to delete it on google calendar or if I add a new date on the hero, it doesn't seem to put it in google calendar.
Any tips?
Thanks all.
worked one bit out. I need to make sure when I add the appt, it is added to the correct calendar, not the local Hero one. Now to sort the deletion bit
I can now add dates on the hero and they appear on google calendar.
Sorted it out, I think

How did you solve the problem?? I have the same problem, if I create a calender event in the Hero it get synced correctly to the google web calender, but if I delete it in the Hero it will not get deleted in the google web calender.
Note that if I instead delete it in the web calender if works so the problem is only when you delete an event in the Hero.
Thanks for pointing this out... I never noticed that you need to select the correct calendar or nothing gets synced to Google and thus back down to my Mac.
Anyone know how to make a particular calendar the default or if you can delete 'My Calendar' and the 'Outlook Calendar' ? Neither of which I would use.
cheers

The mobile remembers the last calender you selected so once you added an event to the google calender it will be the default calender.
Ah, thanks.
Just recived a mail from HTC Supoort that they can confirm that this is a bug in the HTC Hero calender, so I guess the solution is either to try to remove the Hero calender an installa the standard one or to wait for an update from HTC :-(
hmmm... doesn't seem to sync deleted events at all to Google. Better ensure that any deleted events are done online or on the Mac/PC Google synced calendar.
Did they say when it will be fixed ?
you can also hide the outlook and my calendar
in calendar, press menu and then calendars
here you can untick the my calendar and outlook.
and JesperDS is correct, it should remember the last one you selected when you created an item and automaticlly default to that one the next time you create one.
It does indeed remember the last calendar used
Hi,
I have just noticed that despite having events in my Google calendar which go back many months/years (e.g Annual Leave or Shifts worked), my Hero doesnt seem to sync anything prior to Mid July 2009 in its calendar.
All that appears prior to mid July is peoples birthdays.
Anyone got any ideas how I can set it to synce EVERY event/item in my Google calendar going back several years??
Cheers

Google calendar sync stopped
It started with Wi-Fi and now the same error message comes with gprs too.
The message is: "Calendar Storage has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".
This comes after 15 sec use.
Hi,
I've just tested the synchronization of Contacts and Calendar with the Hero, and I can't seem to get it to synchronize appointments made on the phone to Outlook on my PC. I have the latest version of HTC Sync (2.0.4) installed. I haven't changed any of the default settings.
Anyone else have the same problem? Please test it.
Thank you.
when you create new events in the phone calendar, you need to attend to the top-most drop-down, which is to which calendar the new event should be added. The choices are "My Calendar", "Outlook", and then your Google Calendars listed.
If you get this wrong, the sync won't work as expected. The default is the first in the list "My Calendar", and I took ages wondering why it wouldn't sync to my Google Calendar, which was the third in the list.
Then I read about this in another thread, set my google cal when creating a new event, and it did sync.
tedious though.
I can second this.
Just change the Calendar to Outlook and it will sync as expected.
Caught me out also!
Thank you sooooo much!
and if you go into "calendars" you can permanently de-select the ones you don't use - all but Google in my case, perhaps all but Outlook in yours - and then it should be fine. And I think the new event calendar selector remembers your last choice anyway.
I have a problem with Calendar search. When I search for a word, the event is found but when I click on it in order to open it, the "event does not make sense. The only correct thing is the date, everything else is a collage of other events I have in my Calendar.
For example I search for a meeting with my boss. The search will list all my meetings, and when I click on one to open it, I get: My mum's birthday on a certain date (the date of the meeting not actual birthday of my mums).
Is this somehow fixable? The only reassuring thing is that the date is correct so I can always go to that date in my calendar and choose the event from there.
did you assure, that on the phone the same timezone is set as in google settings?
otherwise remove your google account from your phone and start google mail... after successfull account-deletion, you should be asked now to enter your google's account-information... connect your account again and hopefully synchronizing works properly again
Hy,
i have a Galaxy S since last Thursday and now i noticed that when i put a new entry into the calender from the Google Calender Website, after a while the entry disappears on the Phone and on the Website from Google. But not directly after the sync. Because i can see it on the Device after the input on the Site. Just a few hours later it´s gone
Tried it 4 times today and always after some hours the new entrys where gone.
When i put anything in "My Calender" on the Phone it doesn´t disappear.
Any one else with this strange behavior?
No i try to deactivate "My Calender" and use just the Google Calender to see what will happen.
Edit:
Well now it noticed that the Location in my Phone was not set correctly and the new entrys in the Google Calender of the Website differed + 1 hour from the entry in the phone. I´ve set it now to the right location and will see if this maybe was the problem. But shouldn´t it no matter?
I have some recurring events in google calendar (when im supposed to be at work)
On vacations and such i delete some of these events. On the website it works as its supposed to. on my SGS it seems to ignore those i deleted. They keep appearing on every sync on my phone. The website is not affected, only calendar on the phone.
I want my Nexus One back. Everything just worked on that one, no stupid bugs.
After i corrected the location setting in the Phone yesterday and deactivated the "my calender" it seems to work as well. Didn´t delet my entries anymore.
Now i´ve activated "my calender" again to see if this caused the problem or the wrong location setting.

Maybe your entries are in "my calender". The Galaxy S has 2 calenders. One only for the phone, that can be synced with outlook for example. The other ons is the Google Calender that syncs with the Google Server.
The Problem now is that every entry you type in the calender on the phone gets by default into "my calender" IF you do not change the setting of the entry to you Google Calender and will not show up in the Website. Hope it gets an update to set the default calender.
Maybe it helped you.

Installing the stock android calendar solves the issue. Appointments made in the stock calendar are saved by default in the google calendar.
I unchecked 'my calendar' on my galaxy now.
I hope this works.
Thanks for helping

Now that i´ve activated "my calender" the entry from 30 minutes back is gone again, but the ones from yesterday are still there. So i have to deactivate this one.
I have seen that i have a programm (Google Calender Sync) on my pc that syncs the calender from google with my outlook. Could this cause the problem? i try everything now to get a solution for this.

I tried that but things i delete keeps comming back. Only the google calendar is activated now.
Hi,
Since I've upgraded to Gingerbread my calendar seems to be synching only one way:
- When I create an event online on google's calendar using my laptop they do show up on the cellphone.
- When I create an event on the cellphone it doesn't show up on google's calendar on my laptop.
Any thoughts?
Have you checked the settings in Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars?

+1. Also make sure sync for the entire phone is enabled. It was disabled once when I rebooted my phone, no idea why. I just added an event from my phone and it showed up on the computer instantly. Are you adding events to your calendar or a shared calendar?
It's strange. When I go to Calendar->Settings->Manage Calendars I get
- Phone Calendar
not synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on but the sync icon is off. It allows me to set the visibility to on or off but not the sync.
- Gmail calendar
synced, visible . There is an eye icon that is on and the sync icon is on too. It allows me to select the if the sync and visibility should be on or off.
I had this syncing problem as was described in this thread. The solution turned out to be to click that button and make the "Phone Calendar" NOT visible and NOT synced. Then the only calendar left was my real google calendar and now all the events I create on my phone are instantly synced correctly up and down to my google calendar web page on my desktop pc.
Hope this helps you out.

was there any other possible solution or method anyone can think of in this situation, ive moved from stock GB to Miui Alpha 3 to a more stock ICS themed ROM to Miui Alpha 4 and somewhere in that last jump i lost calendar sync. Noone else seems to have this issue on the Miui thread and there is no option to select a 'phone' calendar or a 'google' calendar in Miui, its just the 'google' one. Thanks in advance
