Backing up touchwiz calendar to google calendar?

Unless im missing something....is there a way to back up things I add to touchwiz into my google calendar...everytime i add to my things to my touchwiz calendar and then try and back them up using the google sync they never show up in my gmail calendar online.
Sorry posted this is the wrong area. Mod please move it.

You have to choose your g mail calendar each time you set up an entry.. sucks

One of the reasons I switched to Jorte; it allows me to put things directly onto my google calendar.

Thanks...I didn't know you could set what calendar it uses

Does anyone know a way to have your Google calander be the default when you click the + on the Launcher Pro Plus calander widget?

I've been looking at that one. Will probably try it when I have more time. I'm really, really happy with the phone right now even with the couple minor annoyances and not sure I want to trade "know problems" for potentially unknown problems.

calander widget

I need the small calendar widget to show the events of today instead of tomorrow. Right now all it does is show the events of tommorow which is pretty annoying. I dont have space on my homescreen to use the bigger sized one. Is there a way around this? or should I install a calander app from playstore?
thanks guys

[REF] Definitive 'apps that work with multi-screen' list

So it seems that only certain apps work with multi-screen and it is not just samsung apps.
Here I plan (with your help) to create a difinitive list of all apps that will work.
I have already noticed that some apps allow themselves to be splitscreened even when they do not appear in that list e.g. official twitter app.
Some apps you will find when you press the edit button, you can then drag them to the main list, or remove ones you do not use.
Samsung Apps
- ChatON
- Email
- Gallery
- Internet
- Messaging
- S-Note
- Video Player
Google Apps
- Chrome
- Gmail
- Maps
- Talk
- Youtube
Third Party Apps
- Facebook
- Official Twitter app
- Polaris (Viewer)
Note: you will need to be using Samsung stock keyboard to benefit from typing when on multi-screen mode, otherwise your keyboard will cover the entire bottom screen.

I just installed the official Twitter app and it is now in the multiscreen menu tab

weird its not showing up for me, did you login to the app? maybe its because I have not logged in?

What about S-planner and Calculator app? I would think these would be two of the most useful to use multi-screen, or at least floating over the screen like the galaxy tabs.

a '*' denotes that the app works in split screen but cannot be selected from the list, it must be activated first then another added as the second screen, therefore two apps with the '*' will not be able to be paired together.

Mine had Twitter in it from the time the multi view was installed.

I had to press edit and drag the twitter icon from there.
Splanner and calculator do not work in split screen.

Can you try tapatalk and see if it works?

Thanks for the info. Bewildering why they would leave out calculator and S-planner from split screen. Two apps that would seem to benefit most from it.

Maybe Samsung will add more apps at future firmware updates.

get aircalc. it's a floating calculator

Anyone know if there is a multi-screen api that devs can use to make compatible apps? It would be epic to get tapatalk and Skype added to the list.

Would love to use Skype with Multi-window. A video call while being able to use the phone.Actually, imagine Skype with video pop up. That would be fairly handy.
Looking forward to the future of the Note 2.

Ohh, This splitscreen rocks

Waiting for Skype to be added in this list

If anyone gets a chance can you see if Netlix will work, possible by opening it then adding something like Facebook to the screen. Thanks in advance, I'm so excited about getting this phone.

Press and hold the back button for 2-3 seconds. If nothing happens then your firmware doesn't support multiview.

Well there's plenty of apps available in the play store, and most of them come with widgets. Try a few of them, you'll probably like them!

Already had a look , and I am not a fan of them . Not interested in third party apps , I want the stock S4 weather widget back that is why I posted this thread to figure out what has happened to it and get it back .

This happened to me, the weather widget disappeared, i was using new zealands metservice one and was stumpped for days....
So, have you recently moved it to sdcard in the application manager recently as that was what i did and it disappeared, when i moved it back device storage and then the widget was back.

THANK YOU ! you have led me in the right direction , turns out I have disabled the widget in the applications section and have completely forgot about it . Also the weather widget only works with the TouchWiz not the Nova Launcher .
