Can someone confirm if the following is fixed on 1.6/2.0?
When long pressing a 'greyed out' calendar day early in the following [/I]month to enter a new appointment, the appointment is created on that date in the current month.
(Only tested using outlook calendar so far)
Thanks

Hi,
Scenario:
I have added contacts through iContact and assigned birthdays to contacts. Then I have replaced my calendar with "Calendar Touch". It also shows birthdays automatically against dates.
What I want:
I want the birthdays to appear in the today screen just like appointments do. E.g. Lets assume today is 2nd Jan. Then Today screen shows appointments on 2nd. But, can it be made to show birthdays on 2nd Jan as well?
Pls lemme know if this is possible. TIA.

It's possible using synchronising with outlook, it create a recurrent task for each birthday and you can modify the delay but you have to do it contact by contact to edit it, by default it ring at 00:00 the morning of the birthday. I'm looking for a standalone app that can be more configurable but haven't find it yet. Hope it helps.

But, I thought adding B'days to contacts automatically creates an entry in calendar like an appointment and displays it on today screen...doesnt seem so...sad
Anybody got a solution to fixing the MS Calendar?
When i make appointments, lets say i sync'd the appointments to GMT+9, then next week i go to GMT+10, all my appointments are shifted 1hr forward.
Any fixes that will prevent that from happening? i just want to schedule my appointment Via 1 timeline regardless of timezone.
Hi folks,
I've spent the last 8 hours organising all of my contacts getting their email addresses, phone numbers and birthdays all up-to-date on my Google Apps 'Contacts', and synced via Exchange to my mobile. Lovely jubbly. However, their birthdays never got transferred into my phone's calendar (which kind of defeated the point of me adding them all to the contacts!). So I downloaded and ran 'B2C' (Birthday to Calendar) which worked beautifully.
Only there's one issue - the reminder time that's been set for all of these recurring all-day events is 2 hours, which would mean that I'd only be reminded about each persons' birthday at 10pm the night before (which, to be honest, isn't ideal when a card and present are in order!).
So I was wondering if there was any way of changing the reminder time of each and every recurring all-day event in my calendar (since the birthdays are the only recurring all-day events I have in there) to 3.5 days instead of 2 hours? Can I run a batch script or something to do the job?
Trying to avoid having to use Outlook if I can, since I'm on a Mac and it'll be a pain in the arse trying to get all of that set up and working properly on my VM.
Cheers!
First off:
I own an HD2 with original HTC StockROM 3,14.
additionally I have installe Manila Birthday.
The device is synced with 2 PCs.
1) the birthdays from the (Outlook-)contacts are transferred automatically to the calender as "complete day" appointments.
2) with Manila Birthday you can also transfer the birthdays into the calender
Problem:
At first I have removed all of the original entries from the calender (see #1)Then I got all birthdays transferred by Manila Birthday.
But, whatever I do -- after a few sync cycles the originial entries reappear. This means I have now 2 entries for each birthday in the calender.
=> it's a nuisance, but not critical.
The difficulties start on travels. I am regularly on business trips to UK (1 h time shift). Now all the 1 day Birthday entries become 2 day events. (grrrr...).
When I return from the travel, this does not swith back (still two day events) (grrr no. 2.) But really irritating is, that also the data in the contact become manipulated. Meaning: all birthdays are either a day earlier or later. But NEVER correct. If you call then the jubilee - well you are always on the wrong day (and you look really stupid...).
Question:
1) is it possible (with ManilaBirthday or the HTC calender or the contacts) to set it up in that way, that the original entries to the calender are no longer made?
2) How can I manage that the Birthdays in the contacts are not manipulated during travels?
3) since I didn't find anything about this points... am I really the only one who experienced this problem????

I've noticed this as well. I'm using EnergyROM and everytime I update and then sync with outlook, I get 2 entries for each birthday. If I don't delete them from outlook before a new sync, they can start to build up. No idea how to stop this though apart from only sync either your contacts or calendar.
known issue with outlook happens on other platforms as well
I've got another situation, but it adds up to the same problem.
1. Original registration of birthdays is done in Outlook.
2. Synced in WinMo using activesync.
3. Synced WinMo with g-mail account.
4. Booted into Android, synced agenda and contacts with g-mail.
5. Changed Android build and synced that with g-mail.
By now every birthday is shown twice, some are quadrupled.
Don't really know how to solve this.
Hi everyone. I have a Desire HD with stock ROM. I use android calendar and sync it with outlook 2007. All works fine. I have a loto of recurring appointments but :
- if I delete only one entry of the recurring appointment in outlook, I see it in android calendar again after the deletion
- if I manually try to delete it in the android calendar , the only option I have is "delete all entries".
How can I solve it? I noticed, around google, that I should have the option "this entry and future" too when I try to delete a repeating appointment.
Thanks to all
