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.

Says 'no calendars'
Facebook app doesn't sync contacts either

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.

How to set one of my 3 gmail accounts as default email when sharing pages etc

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Go into settings, and in accounts click on Google. You should see each listed as syncing, tap on the ones you only want email for and deactivate sync for all other services.
That's my best guess anyway. Not sure if this will prevent the prompt when "posting as...".

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.

It syncs but not very well as Facebook has a crap android app. Only about 3/4 of my contacts sync, and I use Contact Picture Sync to get the rest synced. It has something to do with Facebook not using Android API's or something to that effect as why it doesn't work well. Facebook and Google aren't the best of friends and we suffer.

I think haxsync screws up the display pic of contacts.. The quality of the image is really bad...
I've been using UberSync and am happy with how it works in syncing contacts and photos. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync
