[Q] Facebook calendar sync - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to get the Facebook calendar to sync? Specifically with Pure Grid Calendar (though it gets it's synced calendars from the Google app).
TYIA!

HaxSync works for me. Though I dont use Facebook that much, but my friend's birthdays does get synced.

PC Sync calendar option

So I've just flashed a Gingerbread ROM after coming from mcr r9 for a few months. Prior to that I was on stock Sense 2.1 (I'm sure some may remember that! )
With 2.1 the calendar app, you had the option to have a good few calendars:
your google/gmail account calendar
a "my calendar" or similar calendar
the PC Sync calendar - for syncing with outlook
and iirc UK holidays
and maybe the Facebook calendar
With 2.2 going into the Calendar app and pressing [Menu]>More...>Calendars>[Menu] they removed the "my calendar"/"personal calendar" but you still have these calendars:
your google/gmail account calendar
the PC Sync calendar - for syncing with outlook
UK holidays
Facebook calendar
Now in Oxygen rc7/test build @6 Feb 11 you obviously get the new 2.3.2 calendar.
It looks like I only have
your google/gmail account calendar
UK holidays
So my questions are:
Is that correct or is the calendar still a WiP?
Is this something google are slowly changing over the android revisions i.e. Is this a feature of gingerbread or the 2.3.2 calendar? - So that people are forced to use google calendar as their sole calendar...
I need to use Outlook calendar on my pc and sync both a WM phone and this android phone from that - I don't want to sync my calendar with/migrate to google calendar thanksbutnothanks.
Do I have any options/workarounds other than to go back to froyo?
Thanks for reading this far and for any insight/help you may give.
I have had succes syncing my Outlook with something called Myphoneexplorer (for PC there is an android client app for this program.)
But I have found syncing the contacts can be a bit of a pain because of the multiple contact sources (facebook LinkedIn and Google) and it take some work to actually link the contacts on the phone to remove and combine the dupes.
I haven't had time to play with it very much but it did sync my contacts and calendar.
Still a robust and cloud consolidating option would be a god send.
Not sure if that would require better cloud support in Outlook but it seems logical.

WHich rom are you on......what settings have you got in facebook...sync all?
I'm on stock GB.
I went into my Accounts & Sync, then my gmail account and clicked sync Calendar and now I have all my Facebook events in my Calendar (on my phone).
EDIT: Okay sorry, never mind. I did have a facebook account setup in accounts & sync. I removed it and resynced everything is good now. Thank you.

Gmail calendar items are not displayed in any calendar app

My main Gmail account is fully synced with my device.
In all calendar apps, no appointments from it (and any other gmail account) are displayed (checked with stock calendar, CAL, widgets etc.)
My Gmail calendar is not even displayed in the list of available calendars in any app.
Of course, all my appointments are there on the web version of Google calendar, and all are fully synced.
Any advise to remedy that annoying issue would be very welcome.
Amir.
