8830 Calendar Synch Issue/Vista 2007/Desktop Mgr v5.0.1

I use Vista 2007; I have 5 e-mail accounts on my 8830 - none are linked to Microsoft Outlook. Somehow, my calendar on Outlook is using an e-mail address that is not the set default on the 8830 to synch (I had to list one e-mail as a default on the 8830's General Options) and so when I open an appt. syched from Outlook on the 8830 it shows the secondary address and I can't change it to the set default. When I create a calendar entry on the 8830, it shows the default e-mail but then it doesn't synch to the Outlook (unless I list the secondary e-mail). I have not been able to figure out how to fix this. Whenever I synch to Desktop Mgr v5.0.1 it synchs off of the secondary e-mail address. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've had this unit for years and this is the first major issue I've encountered. This has not affected my notes/tasks/contacts/memo sections, which is a good thing. Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

My unit is fixed - here's how we did it (thanks Verizon):
1. Back up data via Blackberry Desktop Manager
2. Under Options, Advanced Options, Default Services: Delete all the e-mail associated Calendars (CICM extensions, if I recall correctly). I only used Microsoft Outlook - not connected with an e-mail so this was just getting rid of the non-use calendars.
3. Wipe 8830
4. Restore the 8830 using the back up data file via Desktop Manager (note, this created duplicate entries again, because the unit took out the associated e-mails on the entries, and thus now I had one Outlook calendar on the 8830 with merged/duplicated entries from before - everything else synched fine).
5. On Desktop Manager, go to Back-Up/Restore Advanced options, and move the Calendar-ALL database over to the left hand side box called FILE (to create a back up file just for that)
6. On the right hand side, clear the Calendar-ALL database (the one from the 8830)
6. Go back to Synchronization, then set calendar synchronization this first time to go from Outlook-Device (change to dual synch later).
5. I did a full/regular synch and that solved the problem.

MS Outlook 2003 and Iphone 2G calendar synching issues

hi,
I have just recently (after a very long IPhone download) am having synch issues. Some of my appointments are on the Iphone but not seen on Outlook. I read something about a com add in but when I tried to check this and add, my outlook didn't have this option. I am very aggravated!!!! I am in sales and have many appts during the day and now I am afraid I am going to forget one if i don't check both phone and outlook.. Please help!!!!
Janet

This is causing alot of problems no idea what percentage of windows users sync'ing with Outlook this is effecting but a lot of unhappy campers out there.
For a constantly updating discussion on this try an independent site:
http://getsatisfaction.com/apple/topics/myiphone_calendar_will_not_sync_with_outlook2007 Covers 2003 Outlook too. - (Scroll down to 16th July)
Apple although acknowledged the problem, now 2 weeks ago seem in no hurry to correct it, something to do with trying to sell MobileMe a cynic may say? Problem has mean't alot of businesses returning iphones, exchanging for Blackberries or just trying to revert back to their smartphones or ppc's.
This added to the problems of bluetooth handsfree kits not working with voicemail and 3G problems I suspect Apple are wishing they never released Firmware 2.0 and iTunes 7.7.
We are all hoping for a swift patch for this critical problem but then again we were doing that 2 weeks ago too... until then at least my XDA Orbit still works.
Repeating the appointment once so it is a reoccuring one day appointment has proved to work in the meantime - major pain though. I am testing Dionhall's fix at the moment, it sounds as if it is fixing the problem for most users. (See link above)

IPhone Outlook calendar synch issue

My new iPhone does synch with my Outlook 2007 calendar, but only some, not all, of the calendar items actually are copied over to the phone. When I create an event on the phone, it does synch back to the computer.
Any idea what's happening here?

Similar, if not same, issue here, as no calendar items come across from the computer. While I run both OSX and PC, the phone uses wife's Dell running XP pro, and it's still no joy. Running latest OS and outlook patches, etc.
I would expect coders are still working on a fix...bought the phone expressly for this purpose--while the other features are great, until this is fixed, it's a rather large thorn.
If the definitive steps to a fix are arrived at, I am all ears...

Synching issues between Palm Desktop 4.1.2 and Sun ONE Synch 1.1p2

This has been vaguely mentioned in a thread elsewhere. I thought I'd document my issues for anyone else searching.
Downloaded and isntalled PD 4.1.2. Synched fine with my Palm Vx.
Installed Sun's synch software 1.1p2. Synched with Calender Server. Synch between Palm and Calender directly failed. Synch between PD and Cal server appeared to go through, but nothing actually synched.
After this, synching between Palm and PD began to go wrong - date book wouldn't be synched, then tasks stopped, progressively getting worse.
Reinstlaled PD 4.1.4 and Palm and PD could synch again.
Uninstalled PD 4.1.4, installed an older version, 4.1, found on CNET's download site. Reinstalled Synch software, everything now synchs fine.
Thank God for that!
Chris

4.1.4 was originally designed for Palm OS 4.x devices, while 4.2 and 4.1.4e (Extended) were designed for PalmOS 5.x devices using the new PIM programs (Contacts and Calendar vs. Address Book and Datebook).

IOS Calendar Synch Issue with Google - iOS 8.1.3

I upgraded to iOS 8.1.3 a few days ago, and since then, am finding that my iPhone is not synching properly with changes to my Google calendar made on other devices. Opening iOS calendar presents me with the spinning wheel for several minutes. To rectify the problem, I have to reboot or shut down the device entirely. When it comes back on, everything works fine.
If this happened just once, I would have chocked it up to an anomaly. However, the behavior I described just happened for the second time in three days. First time was on LTE and this morning while my device was on my home FiOS WiFi.
Nothing else appears awry, and upon reboot via a "soft" shut-down or hard reboot, calendar functions return to normal.
Appreciate some input ....
Many thanks.
- David

I Found if I do a soft reset it triggers my phone to start working though it lasts for 20-30 minutes and resorts back to issue again. I've also noticed AirPlay no longer functions properly which I realized after I updated my iPad to 8.1.3 which I regularly used for AirPlay so I tried it on my iPhone and it didn't work as well I tried it on my wife's iPhone and hers no longer works either. Wow! Disappointed to say the least. I know I can't be the only one frustrated with these 8+ updates as I've read it seems to be ongoing with thousands of others reporting online. It's not just the hard earned money spent on Apple products though when life becomes dependent upon using the products it seriously interfere with use

E65 calendar synch to Vista Home Premium calendar

Anyone know how to do this?? The option won't show on the elements I can synch within PC Suite - only Vista Contacts.

A definite lapse on RIM's part - a full sync of PIM information on your computer is only available if one uses Outlook, which has got to be a legacy solution to when BBs were essentially sold as only corporate devices. They've yet to keep up with their now-diverse consumer base.
Not a perfect solution, but I resolved this by using the online Yahoo! Calendar/Contacts/Memos/Tasks, which the sync will work with - and I believe parts of this service is capable of importing info from your computer's PIM program to it.

Calendar synch issue

My calendar is not synching between my iPad and iPhone i have checked all the settings but cannot see what is wrong, has anyone else had the same problem and fixed it?

I'm using iCloud, after searching endlessly for an answer, I eventually loaded my question only to then find the answer in the more like this section on the page.
It seems you have to switch calendar off in settings, switch it back on and then switch the device off and back on, this has done the trick. Only a shame it took me so long to find such an easy answer.
Thanks for responding.

IPhone4 to iCloud Calendar Synch Issues

I have an iPhone 4 and have recently setup an iCloud account to synch my calendar and contacts. Contacts are OK. Calendar OK on iPhone, but I have quite a few missing entries in iCloud (verified by browser on iCloud.com). Is there a way to force a re-synch? Thanks...

Thanks Winston,
I am starting to see a pattern...If, as you suggest, I make sure the calendars I am using are only in my 'iCloud' account (by clicking the Calendars button in the top left corner of the iPhone Calendar application), then the iPhone Calendar and the iCloud Calendar (via icloud.com on a browser) appear to be in synch. However, I note that I have (consistent) missing entries across my iPhone and iCloud.
I used to back-up my iPhone calendar to my Mac iCal app, via iTunes.
It is clear to me that the missing entries are on (or are assumed to be on) the Mac calendar, because if I switch the 'From My Mac' calendar on (on my iPhone), then the iPhone calendar entries are correct but I am then back to having missing calendar entries in iCloud. Prior to your helpful comments, the ‘Calendars’ checked on my iPhone were the ‘From My Mac’ and the ‘iCloud’ ones. Also, I am fairly sure that that I had the iPhone Default calendar setting as ‘From My Mac’ for a while.
I no longer use the Mac iCal app, as my iPhone calendar back-up is taken care of via iCloud (or will be when I get it all working!).
I do not currently synch my Mac iCal calendar with iCloud. Is this the only way to get everything working properly or is there a more simple approach?
I am guessing that the best approach would be to synch the iPhone to the Mac’s iCal calendar via iTunes. Then, delete the calendar entries on iCloud and the iPhone. Next, re-synch the Mac’s iCal calendar to the iPhone, via iTunes. Finally, remove all Mac calendar settings from the iPhone and synch the iPhone calendar to iCloud, with the default calendar being iCloud.

Outlook calendar synching issues with iPhone

My work Outlook calendar does not seem to be synching up with the calendar on my iPhone. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

In that case the sync is with Exchange, not with Outlook. Both Outlook and the iPhone sync with Exchange, which is the master copy.
Which is more current, Outlook or the iPhone?

Synch Issues : iPod iTunes Desktop

I reinstalled the OS on my laptop (XP Pro). When I did, I had to re-install
iTunes. Now when I try to synchronize my iPOD Nano, the iTunes Desktop does not recognize the Music (Albums) on my iPOD. I really want to do a one way music sync from my iPOD to iTunes (so that iTunes will recognize what I have on my iPOD).
When I try to sync albums from iTunes to iPOD now, the message says that all data on iPOD will be replaced by iTunes Library. This is not cool, because all twenty or so 'iPOD' Albums will be wiped and replaced with one or two Albums from my new iTunes install.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

1). Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you use our iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

Floola Mac & Windows
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

New Desktop Mgr Stops Abruptly During Outlook 2007 Calendar Sync

Like an **bleep**, I upgraded something that was working perfectly. I upgraded to BB software v4.2 on my 8830 and upgraded the Desktop Manager to v4.7. Now, when I sync, it just brings up a Vista dialog that says it has stopped working and that Windows is looking for a solution (which it never finds). I tried everything including turning off the AV and User Account Control (UAC) and removing/reinstalling the Desktop Mgr. I even tried using Computer Manager to change the drive letter. The only thing that lets me get through the sync is if I designate that the device calendar completely replaces the Outlook calendar every time I sync. This is unacceptable, as it means that I can never originate a calendar event on Outlook and hope to sync it with my BB. Aaaarghhh!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Well, as a last ditch effort, I blew up most of my calendar events, and now the sync is working. Must have been a corrupt calendar event. Anyway, back to the task of reconstructing my electronic calendar....

Pearl with memory card works until synch with desktop mgr

I have a Pearl 8130 and a 4gb MicroSD HC card. The card has been formatted and I used the Roxio software from desktop mgr to move stuff to the card. All was good. Now each time I connect the pearl and sync with the desktop software, once I disconnect from the laptop, the phone doesn't recognize the memory card. I have to "add" it each time and then it works fine. Any idea why my connecting to the desktop software would somehow make the phone no longer see the memory card? I searched in the support forums and nothing came up.
Desktop Mgr ver 4.3.0.17, smartphone v 4.3.0.97
Media card support On, Mass storage mode On, Auto enable Mass Storage Mode Yes, Total space 3.7GB, Free space 3.4GB
Thanks.

hi Sanj, you may try to delete everything form the memory card with a card reader under windows, or also may try to format the memory card to fat32, and then try use it again with your phone. I recommend to format the card with the phone after it started successfully.

Calendar Consistency Issues

We've begun seeing some calendar consistency issues on iPad devices. We are using an Exchange 2007 "back end", most of the users are using Outlook in cached mode on their desktop, and many will have another mobile device of one type or another. The consistency issues are appointments appearing in Outlook or being accepted in Outlook and not showing up on the iPad device. Every hardware vendor we've spoken with, including Microsoft, and RIM have emphasized the client/device side and implementing "best practives" such as the following:
-minimizing number of instances of mail clients running against mailbox
-minimizing delegates
-having only 1 person notified of appointment
-avoiding forwarding appointments
-deleting changed recurring appt's rather than changing them
-not accepting appointments from mobile device
-running Outlook in online as opposed to cached mode where possible
I'm hoping someone out there has found a "silver bullet" that goes beyond the suggestions we've gotten which are listed above. The problem is our high profile users that have the devices don't want to be told it's their behavior that's causing the problem!!!
I appreciate in advance any ideas.

Same thing happening on my iMac. Can't do much on the computer.

Outlook calendar syncing issue with BB tour

My phone has been working great with my outlook up an till about 2 weeks ago. Desktop Manager syncs everything except my outlook calendar. I can't seem to figure out why it won't sync. I do have the newest version of the desktop mgr downloaded onto my computer.
PLEASE help!

I have provided some information below, that may help with your syncing issue.
Try going back through the synchronization options on the desktop manager. I have provided the detailed instructions below:
http://search.vzw.com/?do=viewdoc&id=16559
***Step 6 and 7 in the synchronization process will be the most important. Ensure you are selecting calendar (and anything else that is needed), as well as Outlook in Step 7. Step 8 will be up to you in whether you would like to do the following:
Two way sync
Changes are synchronized to the device and desktop application.
One way sync from Device
Changes are synchronized to the desktop application only.
One way sync to Device
Changes are synchronized to the device only.
***You may have to reset your current synchronization and set it back up. If this is needed, use the same article above and on Step 5 in the article you will have the option to reset configuration.
I hope this helps.

Desktop Mgr 5 not compatible w/ BB OS 6?

Hello,
Wondering if there's known issue with BB's running OS 6 being incompatible with Desktop Mgr v. 5 (5.0.0.11).
We've run into this on multiple computers running Desktop Mgr v. 5, where when a BB running OS 6 is connected, the Desktop Mgr crashes.
I can connect a BB up running OS 5 and have no issues, but once I upgrade that same BB to OS 6 Desktop Mgr will crash - once Desktop Mgr recognizes the device, it freezes, then I get the pop up giving me the option to send an error report. Regardless of if I send/don't send the report, Desktop Mgr then closes. If I relaunch, it does the same thing.
I've reinstalled Desktop Mgr v. 5 but get the same result.
I don't have this issue with Desktop Mgr v. 6, but problem is is that we have a number of laptops out there with Desktop Mgr v. 5 along with BB devices on OS 6, that I won't be able to get to in a timely manner.
Is this a known issue, and might there be some sort of patch/fix we can implement to resolve?
Thanks,
Jim
