S5 and Multiple Exchange Calendars - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to get multiple calendars to an Exchange 2013 server, but I'm only getting one calendar. The account has 12 separate calendars, and only the main one (which has almost nothing on it) is syncing. I've confirmed that the same issue does not occur on a Moto X, also running 4.4.2.
Thanks for your help!

[Q] GTab sync with Exchange 2003 cannot sync calendar

Have an issue with my current GTab sync with Exchange 2003
Tried doing this twice already and still no solution yet (i tried searching around but no forums have give me a proper solution as well).
Issue is like this:
1. Setup email, contact and calendar sync with Exchange 2003
2. emails are coming through fine .. no problems here
3. Contacts only 300 ++ contacts came in out of 900++
4. Calendar appointments not synced at all
Anyone encountered this problem?
I just set up my tab from Sprint and it synced fine with my exchange 2003 server.
Maybe reset your device and try again?
Me too. Make sure yiu go into calendar and then tell it how many days you want to sync.

Weird ... Mine just refuse to work... As a workaround ... I'm using touchdown to sync my calendar and contacts....
Very strange...

It's a setting on the Exchange server that's causing it, though I can't recall what it is. Co-worker had the same problem with his Nexus One.
Even though Touchdown costs money, it's a much better solution for Exchange 2003 users IMO.
For me, the ability to have tasks, email and my calendar in one place is worth it. I just moved to the Tab from an iPhone4 and not having to screw with Toodledo sync and a third party task app is a godsend!
The only thing I miss is not having projects, but I'll just use categories for that
Oh, and in case anyone asks, I just used the iPhone as an always connected PDA. I barely used the voice capabilities. That was easy to replace with Skype

I faced the same problem. Calendar doesn't sync with DDJK3 firmware in India.
I flashed XXJM6 Europe firmware from www.samfirmware.com and everything started working fine. Looks like JK series has some issues, JM fixed it looks like
Mail, Calender n contacts all are syncing well.

What Calendar that syncs with Outlook?

I have been using Outlook for years, but since I am using multiple devices now (PC, Nexus 7, Nexus 4) it would be nice if they always spoke to one another. Ideally, I would like something where if I add an event to either Outlook or a Calendar on any of the Nexus devices, it would all sync with one another.
Any recommendations on:
1. A Calendar for the Nexus? Stick with Googles Calendar?
2. Some method to auto sync.
Thanks,
Jon
I use Google Calendar Sync. You install it on your PC and it syncs Outlook both ways with Google Calendar.

I agree. Google Calendar Sync is a perfect solution for you. And it is software that is made by Google themselves, so there's no fear if malware.

All synced now thanks. It was surprisingly easy.
Do you think the default Calendar app on the Nexus 7 is the best one?
Be careful with Google calendar Sync.
If you use 2-way synchronization you might suddenly realize that random events disappear from your Outlook calendar. Or maybe you delete an event in Outlook and Google Calendar starts pestering with cancellation notices all meeting attendees (only way to stop it: delete all events in my Google Calendar).
Last but not least, it only syncs events with the message class IPM.Appointment. If you are using tools like WebEx or Live Meeting, these events will not be synchronized.
I used Google Calendar Sync for several months but in the end I had to give up and accept that it does not work as expected (and hoped). By the way, I am talking about the latest version. My experience with this tool is very recent.
I've been syncing Outlook contacts, calendar and e-mail with my Androids for 2 years. First on my Galaxy Captivate, now on my Galaxy SII and Nexus 7. I use the method described here.

I used to use Google Sync... and there are issues with losing some appointment, but once you get used to the system they are easy enough to avoid.
However... I have been using the method mentioned by Miami Sun for the past few months and I think it works better. A bit harder to set up, but once you do it's practically foolproof.
Another option is to buy something like Touchdown, but it's kind of ugly and expensive overkill for many people.
Yeah touchdown is overpriced. The Google cal sync is pretty reliable. Haven't noticed appointments disappearing but sometimes when pushing for events put in galaxy Sii or N7 outlook has to be double punched on getting new messages. "Event error." But pushing a 2nd time right after clears it up.
Mail from yahoo plus and gmail. Everything is really tidy

You can Wipe all contacts on your Nexus, you can sync one way ( Outlook to Android or Android to Outlook ) or both ways,
You can also sync via their Cloud , etc.
It costs 40$ but it is really worth it.

[Q] Can't Create Local Contacts

I have an address book and calendar in Outlook 2007 on my PC and synchronize these with my HTC Sensation using MyPhoneExplorer.
I have just started to configure my new Nexus 10 and whilst I have managed to create a local calendar, I can't find any way to create a local contacts account - it only offer a Google Gmail account or a "Corporate" account.
I don't want to move my contacts and calendar to Google, especially as Google has announced it is withdrawing support for syncing to Outlook.
Am I missing something, or is there a way of having "local" contacts on my Nexus just as I have on my phone. If not, does anyone have any suggestions for a way of keeping my phone, tablet and PC synced as an ongoing solution?
Thanks.
I bought this last year after I bought myself the Galaxy Nexus.

Local contacts are not supported on Nexus handsets, it's a Google phone.
Thanks for the info! The key fact is your last comment. I spent some time yesterday searching for further info but I didn't find that. Can you tell me where this came from?
My problemn now is how to sync with my PC. The gsyncit program sounds good but if you believe the Google news release, it will also be affected by the withdrawal of syncing from Jan31, 2013 for new accounts. Granted, if I set it up now it should be OK but there's no guarantee for how long.
If I do solve the PC issue and move contacts to Google, it makes sense to also move my calendar. I have entries going back to 2005 that I'd like to keep. The last time I tried to create a Google calendar by syncing from Outlook, it would only sync around 30 days into the past. Is there any way to get the whole thing into Google?

[Q] Syncing with Exchange Calendar

Anybody else had problems with syncing a Nexus 7 (KitKat) with outlook exchange calendar?
I'm migrating from a Samsung Galaxy S Wi-Fi 5 with Gingerbread and with the setup for a corporate exchange account there was an option to sync the calendar for various previous periods ( 2 weeks to 6 months, including the whole calendar). With KitKat this option is not apparent and syncing appears to only sync up to a month into the past - a backward step compared to Gingerbread. I've managed to add previous events by importing a ics file using Business Calendar Pro. However the syncing stops working having worked for a short while.

Problems with Accounts?

I used to have my Outlook calendar display within the Google calendar app on my phone. After my upgrade to Marshmallow, my Outlook calendar events will not display within the Google calendar app.
I never noticed before that the Outlook calendar will not display within the Google calendar after the upgrade as I was using the Sunrise app (which was bought my Microsoft). I do have the Outlook account configured and both Google and Outlook calendars display correctly with the Sunrise app and the Outlook app. I do not want to use the Outlook app for my calendar; I have factory reset my phone and it still does not display. I have searched many, many different calendar apps but none work.
I have verified through my wife's phone (Galaxy S6) that both calendars display properly. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? If so, have you been able to fix it? I very much appreciate any suggestions as I have searched high and low with no avail.
I am running a DROID Turbo 2 / 6.0 (24.14.12.kinzie_verizon.verizon.en.US)
