Hello @ all,
this is my first post and that is why I would like to say "hello" to everybody first
My touch HD arrived last week and I am very happy with it, but I do have a big problem that goes on my nerves!
When I add new appointments, TouchFlo3D shows the appointments just one day before, saying: Tomorrow:...
Ok, let's say, I have an appointment today at 7 pm and I had one this morning from 9 to 10 am. Now, it is quarter past three (where I live) and the Touch HD still shows me the morning appointment instead of not displaying it as it is already over.
When I now start the calendar and edit an appointment, as for example the evening appointment from today and save all changes, then TF3D updates and only shows the appointment at 7 pm.
Why doesn't it update the appointments by itself? It cannot be the intention to either restart the device or to edit something in the calender, can it?
yes, have the same probs.
Appointment from 9-10 o´clock and at 10:30 o´clock the appointment still at the home tab. The bigger problem is, when you are have the sound-option "vibrate on appiontments" active, the vibration is at 10:30 still activated without an appointment around 10:30
same problem here......
Damn...well, I do not have remind functions activated...but nonetheless, it is not acceptable the way it is.
But according to http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/forumdisplay.php?f=211 many german user do not have this problem. I'm suprised that it works in many cases correctly. So what could it be? I hard resetted the device three times already but no change.
same problem here. I checked the date settings (didn't change anything) and went back to the home tab though, everything was ok....!!!
It is annoying, but is corrected when I update and save another meeting, then the old meeting disappears finally from TF3D. Seems to be a problem updating between the Winmobile calendar app and TF3D. So either MS or HTC have to come up with a fix.
I've the same problem and i am a german user
Switching trough the tabs or reactivate Tf3D will fix it here.sometimes a restart from the device also works.difficulty to say
Appointments do not update
I have the same problem. I had an all-day event marked in my calendar for yesterday. This morning it was still showing on the TFL3D today screen.
I went into the calendar and came back out to see if the appointments would update, but they didn't.
Had to soft-reset for the appointments to update. Surely HTC don't expect people to soft-reset every morning so that the appointments update? Has anyone worked out a fix for this? Mr HTC, please can you fix this!
Qas
Same problem here.
If I close TF3D and load it again, the calendar is ok.

My HD with DUTCH language has the same problems After a few calls to HTC Europe in UK its now finally registered as a known issue and I'm assured that they work on a hotfix to solve this worldwide problem.
A temporary work-around is to programm a daily 'empty' appointment from 0.00 till 0.00 without any alarms or whatever. It will show up on your hometab like all the other appointments, but it will trigger it to refresh the data each morning the 0.00 passes.

One week visibility
Do you know if it is possible two have one week visibility for the upcoming events on the home of the TF3D instead of one day ?
I've the same problem and also with my mail. I let my device retreive mail every 10 min from an Imap account. But when I turn on the device then it sounds and vibrates that there is new mail. But with TF3d off it will ring as soon as my mail enters the box. So I think that TF3D has a bug with updating from the registry.
Another user with the same issue. And just like sstolk, I also noticed that emails and sms messages only update after I unlock (as in resume from standby) the device.
Another one and the same problem....
i have the same problem, i hope for a fix.
A possible (temporary I hope) solution is to rely on ActiveSync.
Create a fake exchange profile in ActiveSync and set it to update every 5 minutes (might create a connection, unsure). From what I saw so far, every "sync" forces TF3D to update. Might not be foolproof, but for now it has worked for me.
Ok, the last suggestion turned out to be false hope.
But I have a new theory. My TF3D calendar worked just fine for 3 days now (without any resets). What changed? I have not connected the phone to my PC during these three days. So the new theory is that when syncing stuff over activesync TF3D somehow fails to reconnect to the database - turning it off and on after a sync might perhaps solve the issue.
Still haven't found a permanent fix for this...
Anyone else experiencing it? Any idea how to fix it?
Let's hope they post a fix soon! If anyone finds a solution, please post it in this thread.
Iv tried searching the boards, and there have been numerous threads on the calender system in the touch HD.
However, the majority of them seem to be about the touch HD not showing an appointment in advance (e.g. not showing an appointment a few days in the future).
My problem is very different. The touch HD calender on the homepage does not update itself unless the application is closed via the today tab in settings. For example, if i soft reset my phone, it shows all my upcoming appointments as it should, showing tomorrow's appointments prefixed by "tomorrow". however, the following day, the appointments do not get updated. appointments that have passed are removed from the today screen, but appointments that are due the following day will remain prefixed by "tomorrow".
Hope that makes sense...
any help would be much appreciated (is there any known software clashes?)

Hi, there!
I'm having a nasty problem with my TD2 and have no idea what is going on.
The phone is working fine with the stock tom or any Manila 2.1/Titanium cooked rom.
The problem begins with any Manila 2.5 rom (believe me I tested them all).
I use activesync to synchronize my contacts, calendar and mail with Gmail. My typical contact consists of a name,surname, phone number,mail, birthday and a picture downloaded from facebook automatically.
Now when I flash a 2.5 rom, I do a hard reset two times, and synchronize with activesync. Then I go to the people tab to add favorites.
I add the first - everything is fine.
Second - ok
Third and manila dies completely after I select a particular detail on a contact.
I can go to start menu, lock the phone etc, but cannot return to home screen. After reseting the phone, everything is fine until I go to the people tab - selecting this hangs Manila.
Sometimes after doing a reset the people tab works but adding another favorite hangs it again.
What could cause this?
No idea what could cause, but the favourites I set up in manila 2.1 (and synced with Outlook) automatically come up when I first sync 2.5 with Outlook. I don't need to add them...
Might be some incompatibility with syncing to GMAIL
All of a sudden none of my appointments appear in the HTC Calendar (inc. the Home page).
If I choose a day in the Calendar app I see one of them for a fraction of a second, then it disappears.
I see them all in the WM Calendar app and even on the S2U2 screen, but not via the HTC TouchFLo apps.
Running WM 6.2 Sense 2.1 on TD2.
Any ideas ??????
Issue resolved - related to problems with language support.
Can you help me, I have the same problem on a Rhodium.

His issue was with language support, since you're in DC I suspect your issue is different.
You can sync calendars with MS My Phone, Google Exchange Server, or MS Exchange Server
I gave up since this thread was the only place I read the same exact problem. I decided to just use the ms calendar instead of htc calendar since it was not a sync issue. If htc updates the calendar app I will try it then maybe it will fix it for me. the sleek look of htc calendar is the only thing better anyway.
Have you tried to sync using Google as an exchange server? Its working for me.
that is what im doing. the sync is not the problem as they appear for a second, they just visually disappear in htc calendar a second or less later. but the events are still in google on pc and if i open builtin calendar on tilt 2 then the events are still there as well. so i am sure it is not an ms exchange or activesync issue
I assume you've tweaked the "keep item on device" setting.
I would delete and reestablish your server. I have seen contact photos be slow to load or disappear but never any issues with calendars.
It could be an issue with your ROM retaining data and you may have to hard reset.

Just tried "keep item on device" setting, and same as before.
I don't think the ROM problem not retain the data since if I use standard ms calendar feature the events are still there. The ROM is getting the data from ms exchange and keeping the data but not viewable more than split second in HTC Calendar.
I just deleted the activsync server and re-setup but still same.
Resolution
I was getting the same results - OK in regular calendar app but only very briefly, if at all, on theTouchFlo screen.
As I wrote above that the problem was due to language issues.
I assume that what was happening was that there were some characters or content which was problematic and causing problems in some cases (TochFlo display). I have the feeling that even one problematic entry caused the others not to be displayed.
If you are experiencing the problem I would look at the content of the entries (or selectively delete them etc). to find out what is happening.

I found the problem but no solution to get what i want
i have the taskbar to show date and time so I change some reg entries one which tell the taskbar to show MMM dd screws up HTC Calendar. i assume HTC Calendar pulls the date info from the same place as the taskbar so it gets confused. So I can pick date and time in taskbar or HTC Calendar. I want date and time in taskbar mm/dd/yyyy then it works since that is the default but the year doesn't really fit even with extra spaces so I guess I'll have to choose one.
Problem Key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides]
"SSDte"="dd MMM "
What happens if you change the date format in your regional settings?
Does it change both WM and TF3D to match?
Strange! Glad you found the culprit.
yes iv been playing with this. The best solution so far is to use "dd MMM yy" in the taskbar. Then select this in the regional settings. Now HTC Calendar works...but this is only 99% success for me since I didnt want to wast 3 character spots in the taskbar for the _yy
I always know the year so it is waster space but I think I will have to live with that.
This has just started.
Selecting the HTC Calendar Tab briefly displays Calendar Items and then they quickly dissappear.
The Windows Calendar displays them correctly!
Even when adding a Calendar Item in HTC Calendar on the device, the item displays and quickly dissappears.
For once I can say Windows to the rescue , as these items are displayed correctly in the Windows Calendar.
We have recently moved from Exchange to GMail ... but this was a couple of weeks back when all worked as expected!
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Fixed
Added HTC Calendar to Co0kie's Calendar setting and restarted.
All good now.
Not sure if this was coincidental with a Power Off restart as well.
I did Google this issue and it seems it is reported numerous times!
could you tell me how u did it step by step?
yeah I've fixed it!
I changed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->nls->overrides->SSDte from dd-MM-yy to yy-MM-dd (I changed it because i prefered dd-MM-yy short date format rather than yy-MM-dd which was default) now with yy-MM-dd works perfectly
