[Q] Multiple Google Calendar Sync

I have 4 different google calendars... Birthdays, Class Schedule, Assignments, and my regular personal Calendar. I want to be able to sync all of the calendars with WP7 but everywhere i've looked says it can only be done by syncing the calendars to outlook, then syncing outlook to the phone.
Has anyone figured out a way to do this without syncing it to Outlook? I already have an Outlook calendar for work and merging the two and not being able to differentiate them would just be a big mess...

Setup a google mail account (for each account of course)
Go in those accounts to settings > sync settings > and tick the option "calendar" where you will also find the option for mail and contacts
All the calendar items will appear in the calendar of WP7. Or at least, this is how it works for me
Edit:
Somebody might put some additional notes to this, as i have no idea if the calendar that is used is automatically the outlook calendar?

depends on if u haave a google account for home and another for school like some colleges use the google apps domain to host their email and calendar ervvices you can set this up by going to settings email and accounts then add an account hit google and enter your full email and password even though it says username that threw me off the first time too so im just telling you now

[Q] exchange sync outlook contacts folders?

Hi,
I wan't to sync more than just one contact folder with my outlook through activesync.
In my outlook I have contacts and 2 more contact folders.
one Is the same level as contacts and the other is it's subfolder.
neither one seems to sync with android excepts original contacts.
when I go to contacts -> menu -> display options -> my outlook account I can only check all contacts to sync.
and under my google account I can check any contacts folder I have on gmail.
I use Froyobread v017 and build-in mail application.
Mail and original contacts folder sync ok.
I couldn't find any settings to enable syncing of other folders in my phone, neither any solution on xda or google.
So any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Try "My Phone Explorer". I use this for syncing my Outlook-Contacts, but I don't know if it supports multiple folders, cause i only have one. But you could give it a shot.
Just google for it. You can find a client in the market.

Thank you, but I'm not trying to sync with my comp but directly with my company's exchange server.

[Q] Sync from google OK, from phone NOK

I found quite some usefull threads on how to set up and avoid problems with syncing my HD2 on WP7 (7403) with google. I can get it to sync mail and "my contacts". The latter means "importing" the contacts in that category. What it does however NOT do, is exporting the contacts from my phone (mainly just names with phone numbers) to my google account. How do i get this to work?

Hi there ...not sure with 7403 but with 8107 i found this.
set up a gmail account on your phone , then when you check your gmail it automatically syncs.
On the phone gmail account settings you can choose what it syncs ( mail / calender/ contacts) All working well.

Import contacts from csv XBmod-Yuki Build

I am using HTC HD2 with XBmod-Yuki Build 8107.
Before flashing the ROM, i backed up contacts using SPB Backup utility as well as in a .csv file.
How can I import contacts into my phone now that I have Mango 7.5?
Regards,

the short answer is you cant. As with any windows 7 phone you cant transfer contacts from PC to phone ( amazingly crazy I know)
you either have to set up a windows live account ( hotmail) or google Gmail account
When you set up your Gmail account on the phone it sync's contacts and calender automatically

for Windows Phone 7, Windows Live will take a front and center role with the device, requiring you to use a Live ID to "sign in" on the phone to access your Xbox account, Zune profile, Hotmail/Live Mail, MSN Messenger, Phone Live, etc. Similar to an Android device requires a Google mail account for google services
One neat feature that will help simplify things is using Windows Live Contacts (http://contacts.live.com/), which will allow you to import your contacts from
Microsoft Outlook
Outlook Express
Windows Contacts
Windows Live Hotmail
Yahoo! Mail (CSV)
Gmail (CSV)
To export contacts from gmail
(Gmail --> Contacts --> Export --> Outlook CSV).
Likewise, the 'Add People' feature allows digital import and constant syncing between the following services:
Facebook
MySpace
LinkedIn
AOL Mail
Google
Outlook
etc.
Remove duplicates
Finally, you can use the Manage --> 'Clean up contacts' option in Windows Live Contacts to find and delete duplicate information, saving a lot of time. Likewise you can use the 'Merge' feature if you have many lists to import.
Sync does the rest

Outlook for Android not Syncing Contacts to Phone

Hi All,
Both my Nokia 6s' have stopped copying / syncing Contacts from Outlook for Android into the phones Android Contacts App.
Up until a week ago all my Contacts in Outlook were also found / sync'd in Android Contacts but some reason this abruptly stopped. I can see all my Contacts in the Outlook App, but I also see that the Outlook account is not found in Android Contacts and it does not let me add a new (Outlook) account. Also, the "Sync Contacts" slider in Outlook for Android is missing.
I have tried Reset Account, Delete Account, uninstall / re-install App etc. in Outlook (on both devices) but without any luck.
It is strange that this is happening on both devices. Is anyone else having the same issue?

I've never been able to get the Outlook App contacts to sync with Android contacts. However, the way I got around to do fixing this was to add another account to the stock GMAIL app on the phone with the Exchange credentials. For whatever reason, then I can get two-way syncing of contacts between my phone and Outlook. If there is a better way to do this, please post here!
Thanks

I also sync Outlook contacts by addimg my adding an Exchange Account via Settings-Accounts options, then manually configuring it.
