Is this a change in Calendar app? Can open addresses. - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Now I'm noticing that an address for an appointment in the Calendar is underlined and I can open the address in Maps or Sygic or Glympse.
Is this new or did I just miss it before?
It's something I wanted for sure.
Using 4.1.2. I think the Calendar app was upgraded recently.

This has been an available option in calendar for quite some time now.

Looking for a calendar app with bi-weekly recurrence for events

Does anyone know of such a thing?
Thanks

Business Calendar does this well. It has the best add/edit event dialog that I've found, and one of the few that does end dates for recurring events. There are free and paid versions in the Play Store.

No corporate calendar

I have added my work email account and my email syncs fine, but my calendar will not sync. Anybody having this issue?

Did you set it up through the email app or in settings > accounts.
I set mine up using the latter and my calendar syncs correctly.

Make sure you are set up using an exchange account, and not imap. (exchange does USE imap for mail, though, so it is possible to set up an imap account instead)
Had to wipe exchange settings and redo. Once I did that it worked

Ditto. I thought I tried this once, but it worked this time. Sweet.

Email gmail groups

This is driving me mad. I've tried every workaround I can find, but it seems to be impossible on jellybean to send an email to contact groups.
Has anyone managed to get this to work?

Any ideas?

I've always hated the Gmail app. It was so ugly, un intuitive, and complicated. It's threaded messaging is a mess and confusing.
I always preferred HTC sense email when I used my phone.
Or better yet, windows phone 7 email is great.

Corporate Exchange

Am I missing something or is it Google, I can't find a way to search corporate Exchange directory for contacts with my nexus that are not on it yet? My Rezound can search for Exchange contacts and then add them to local contacts. Seems HTC has added a lot of little things that Google forgot.
Thanks

The HTC Sense Exchange support makes stock Android look like a joke, sadly.

Apparently auto sync needs to be enabled as without this, manual sync didn't work very well.

Yup. I believe all versions of Exchange 2k3 and above require autosync. Your SysAdmin should have let you know.

Best calendar app

Is there a good calendar app that will sync with the iPhone? My wife wont switch from that phone and I am struggling to find a good one that can sync over both platforms. Any suggestions?

then try this Google Calendar Live Widget. I think iPhones don't have ability to use widgets.
No they dont but it would be nice to be able to enter a calendar event and have it show up on my wifes iPhone calendar also

I am able to instantly sync 2 Iphones and three android phones using Google calendar threw a datacated Gmail account, it's strictly for calendar synchronization threw out both platforms. I have no issues just syncing the calendar only.
No matter where the phones are the calendar events anyone puts in gets pushed to the other phones.
Hope that helps...

I sync the built-in calendar app on my S4 with the built-in calendar app on ipad, also using gmail. It's dead simple to use. Just enter an appointment on one and it instantly shows up on the other.
You could try Cozi. I believe it supports both devices and Android version had widgets. Can also assign tasks, grocery list, etc between family members. My wife and I use it and it works pretty well.
