Yet another Exchange question

I have managed to add my account via Accounts & Settings but only options to sync contacts and calendar. BUT when selecting synchronize -nothing happens - says its been synced but no contacts nor items in the calendar appears!
When going to Mail app and adding my mail account same way it says that it cannot connect to the server. WTF - does the exchange not working at all?

Did you try
Settings > Accounts and sync > under Manage Accounts > Sync Calendar / Sync Contacts "Touch to sync now"
you can set your sync settings here, did you enable Push and auto-sync?

You might need to confirm if there is any issue at your Exchange server (but Your Exchange Admin will never admit
ok, let's take 1 step back, and do some fundamental check
1. did you manage to login to your Exchange in the phone? (you should get a pop-up notification if you failed)
2. did you send any email out?
3. did you manage to receive any email?

It is working with HTC Desire so the answer is yes, my Exchange server is fine

any idea which firmware you having?

[Q] epic Calander Problems

Ok i searched thru the search and havent found my answer. I set up gmail calander and inside it set up some events to follow, like Us Holidays and sport teams calanders. It set up nicely on my laptop, but when i sync on my phone, they show up in the list of connected calanders but are now in the actual calander. Am i doing something wrong?, like looking at the samsung calander and not the Gmail calander. I am on Froyo Dk28 rooted aswell. HELP!!

I didn't fully catch your question, but If I understand correctly:
have you tried going to the regular calendar?: open app drawer, select Calendar. Then Menu, Settings, Calendars
Here you can check or uncheck the calendars you want to show; the list should include all of your calendars, including "other" calendars you added through GCal. After you do that, hit the back button, go to Calendar Sync and make sure the calendar is checked to sync (if you want that). I'm pretty sure most of the other 3rd party calendar apps either use the same method or pull from these settings.

If it's not showing up in the list, uncheck the Calendar Sync from your google account. Then goto Settings->Applications and clear application data for "Calendar Storage" (not "Calendar"). Then recheck the calendar Sync to resync, that should work.

that didnt work, anyone else got any ideas?? Please very annoying not having the holidays on the phone

that fix helped me with my calendar sync issue after upgrading to froyo eb13, thanks!

Had same issue. Clearing Calenar and Sync storage fixed it right up for me. Didn't even need to uncheck the calendars.

same issue here... clearing the cache actually made me lose some of the calendars I had synced and now can't get them back...
Haven't been able to get a calender my wife has shared with me since upgrading at all.

Before I upgraded, I forgot to save the phone calendar since it doesn't sync to google. I used MyBackup Root before I upgraded to save the all calendars. So, I restored the calendar in MyBackup Root and it took all my events from all the calendars it backed up and smushed them into the main calendar. I didn't catch it before it synced to google and it made a mess. I exported the calendar to try to fix it and deleted the calendar to find that the export is corrupted...DOH!!!
Anyone else have a way to solve this issue with MyBackup and putting all calendars into one?

OMG THANK YOU! Lost a bunch of appointments when I went to DK28, and this fixed it!

You know i dont think i read things correctly the 1st time, either that or i should have tried it a 2nd time because by GEORGE IT WORKED. AWESOME!!

Had all my calendars except 1 before i tried the 'fix'... then did the fix...and lost all my calendars...
i dunno what i did but i got one of them back... 1! .... but still not all of them.. later im going to try to replace the calendar apk file

Took me a minute to find the setting, on my Epic 2.2.1 its Settings > Applications > Manage > All > Calendar Storage
WOW. Clearing the cache. I sort of felt it was the cache that was corrupt, but did not know the 'ALL' tab on Apps existed!!
THANKS A TON!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was missing some events/appointments in EB13 calendar. Unchecking sync, then clearing data in "calendar storage" then rechecking sync did the trick! Thank you!!

Sync with Google Chrome

What am I doing wrong. I put the correct email address, but still shown about 10 a bookmarks. I have about 100 bookmarks so how to import them all?

You can use Chrome to phone to send links to your android device but I don't believed it will auto sync.
EDIT: NVM, I never knew it was an option to sync.

I know it sounds like the usual catch-all solution, but have you tried rebooting? I went through the wizard in the browser settings to set up chrome sync and it still took a while to pick up on all the bookmarks.. I rebooted and there they were. Don't know if the reboot helped or if it would have happened anyway........

My bookmarks synced up pretty quick, without needing to restart.
Make sure you have sync turned on with your desktop Chrome browser.

LOL, just now did the sync and it synced up pretty quick, no reboot needed.
I only have about 30 bookmarks but they all synced fine.

I deleted all the bookmarks, but how to update my bookmarks? I went into the accounts and the sync settings and I updated my Google Account. Sync Browser is selected.

What version are you all using???? (I'm on 3.1)
I don't even have that option in my Sync settings!!

But the Chrome browser that has the bookmarks you want to sync with (I assume your desktop browser)... Did you got into Options, Personal Stuff, and setup the Sync there?

sure there is, its in the stock web browser settings window.

On the desktop chrome (not your tablet) go to Tools (the spanner) > Options > Personal Stuff & Sync.
Awww I did a fun little screenshot but can't post it yet due to less than 8 posts.

Thanks all. Figured it out.

Hrm... trying to setup the sync com.google.process.gapps FCs whenever it tries to sync the browser. Persistent through reboots/etc.

My gmail wont notify me when a email comes in.

When an email come in, Gmail won't notify me. I checked that gmail notification was on. i don't know whats the problem. Can anybody help?

**************aljdflsjdljf
I also Know nothing about this

Most likely another app interfering. Do you have any SMS notification apps or anything else that affects notification services for something installed?

I don't think so. I think facebook and ads but that about it.

Are you sure gmail is running? Go into manage applications look for gmail and see if the force stop box is greyed out. If it is gmail isn't running

Have you got gmail checked for syncing under Accounts and Settings?

I know that ie ILWT has an option to install a version of Gmail app that should have something different about notifications,it may be your problem,try to search it...

You can have a try on clearing the cache of the gmail app (Settings -> Apps -> ...)

How do i find the gmail for ILWT?

I second this. Did you just turn notifications on in the gmail app? You need to go into android settings, accounts & sync, click on your email address, then make sure gmail is checked.

You may want to search on google for a modified gmail app with something about notification or just check synching as they said...
