BUG: Nano Calendar Sync

I've found a bug with syncing calendar between my Mac and Nano.
In iCal, I have some calendars with a colon (":") in the title. These are not synced to my Nano. Renaming the calendars to remove the colon allows them to sync properly.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Check the format of your Nano. Is it HFS+ or FAT32

Longstanding Exchange Calendar Sync Bug Persists in iOS 7 / 7.0.2

For those who sync their iPhone / iPad / iPod touch to a Microsoft Exchange e-mail environment, you may be aware that there's a longstanding Exchange Calendar Sync bug (affecting iOS 4.x - 6.1.3). An otherwise functional iDevice may suddenly remain warmer to the touch than normal, exhibit much shorter battery life, and start using cellular data at up to ten times the user's typical pattern. I've taked with Apple Support several times, and was never able to get an answer. The fix involves simply opening the Exchange account settings on the iDevice, shutting off calendar sync for thirty seconds, and turning it back on. This is nothing new.
Over the weekend, an executive’s iPhone 5 (on Verizon) and his iPad 2 (Wi-Fi only), both running iOS 7, began exhibiting runaway connections to my employer’s Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync server. The user upgraded his iPhone 5 to iOS 7.0.2 over the weekend, but the problem persisted. In one 24-hour period, his iPhone checked in with our server 45,009 times, while his iPad connected 55,547 times. Normally we’d expect to see a single device connect a few hundred times per day rather than tens of thousands.
I've written more about it here.

This is still a problem in iOS 7.0.4 as well. We just had runaway calendar sync behavior on a 4th generation iPad running iOS 7.0.4 (iPad3C4/1102.55400001), which connected 75,436 times in a single 24-hour day.

IPOD Nano : calendar/iCal sync issue

Since the change made on MobileMe calendar, I can't sync my "old" iPODs nano calendar with iCal anymore. (I have a 2nd generation iPOD Nano and a 4th generation one)
My guess is that the iCal datas are nomore on the Mac itself but somewhere in the MobileMe cloud and the iPOD nano can't find the datas anymore to update its calendar.
Is there a way to solve this issue?
Thanks a lot for any help or idea

Nobody has any idea on the way to sync my "old" iPOD nano calendar with iCAL on my Mac running MacOS X 10.6.8?

N95 Calendar Sync Bug found

I have recently come across an issue with the Nokia N95, we have just bought over 20 of these for executive staff at my company, as the IT support officer I have been called out to nearly every one of these new phones to fix a problem. The issue is that when you add a reoccurring meeting request within Outlook and sync it to the N95 it copies across correctly, however if you remove one of the meetings but keep the series it will delete the one meeting from Outlook but not from the calendar on the N95 on next sync, this is obviously a big issue, when the directors PA removes a meeting from the reoccurring series it leaves the appointment in the phone, it seems that even after deleting it the phone only looks at the date range for the reoccurring meeting and places a meeting on each of the days specified in there no matter what, even when the single meeting is removed manually from the phone when it runs sync the next time the meeting comes back again, even though it is not on the device or Outlook. I have been through all the advanced settings within the Nokia PC Suite Software and also active sync and still nothing has helped. When I phoned Nokia Support I was told that the only way to fix this issue was to change the sync setting from both ways to one way only, but this is not good enough as the director and executives need to make appointments when out of the office and have it read back to the computer when they sync. Personally I have a HTC phone that I tested this same issue on and the problem does not exist on this phone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? We are now looking in to more new phones away from Nokia, it would make us happy to find a fix rather than purchasing all new phones for every executive!

Calendar Sync for Palm won't install Conduit

Hi, I'm trying to install Calendar Sync for Palm 10.1 on Windows 2K. Installation proceeds with no errors, but the conduit does not appear in the Hotsynch conduit list. It does remove the default conduits for Calendar, Date Book and To-Do. I've tried uninstalling Palm Desktop and Calendar synch, and reinstalling them, no luck. HotSynch works fine with the conduits that are left, and works with the default conduits if I don't install the Oracle Calendar Synch. I can't find any mention of this problems on the forum, does anyone have an idea of what could cause it?
Thanks.

There's a bug on the conduits as to were to find needed DLLs. It depends on setting itself in the path via environment variables.
The thing is that the conduits are not compatible with other Oracle client installations, which also add themselves to the path. An example is Oracle's Instant Client.
Check your system's path to see if you have any other Oracle client directories before CalSync's directory.
I had a TAR created for this and supposedly they will be 'patching' it for next version...

Calendar Sync for Palm and encryption

We are converting our Calendar Server to always use encryption. We're not finding any way to specify the encryption in the Calendar Sync conduit. Did we miss it somewhere? If not, how do we force the Calendar Sync for Palm to use encryption?

Google Calendar Sync

I saw that another user previously reported an issue with Google Calendar Sync and that you then closed the thread stating that the issue was "solved" by knowledge base article 19691. That article states that the TouchPad only syncs Google Calendar entries 1 month back and 2 months forward. I believe this Knowledgebase article is incorrect and that you do have a bug that needs to be resolved.
In my Google Calendar, I have entered a number of eents related to a vacation planned for late December/Early January. On the TouchPad, I found that all the events that I had entered into the calendar prior to the initial set-up are missing. Several events (in January) that I added to the calendar (not using the TouchPad) since the initial set-up of the TouchPad were all present. In addition, all of the events are present on my Palm Pre running WebOS 1.4.5.
I then tried removing the calendar and re-adding it on the TouchPad. The result of this was that the January events that were previously present disappeared. It now is clear to me that the Google Sync on the TouchPad works as follows:
1. During the initial sync (when the Google account is first added), events are only added to the calendar using the 1 month back/2 months ahead rule as stated in the KB article.
2. Any events added to the calendar (either on the TouchPad or elsewhere) after the initial sync are synchronized to the TouchPad regardless of how far in the future they occur.
Obviously, the Google API does allow syncing of all entries in the calendar, not just a 3-month period. WebOS clearly should synchronize all future events (as it did on the older, pre-HP versions) as doing anything else is a serious limitation on the usability of the calendar.

Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

I have also added items to my Google Calender in Feb 2012. I then went to the calender app on the Touchpad. From the menu in the Calender app selected Sync Now. The item appeared on the Touchpad.

Bug: Ovi Calendar and pre-1975 events

I was quite puzzled to discover the hard way that OVI Calendar does not support events dated before 1/1/1975. Apparently not all developers learned from the Y2K bug.
Why do I need events in the past, you may ask. Well, to store birthdays/years.I have stored birthdays of my contacts as yearly repeated events in Outlook, starting from the day of birth. That's handy to remember their age. I first synchronised them with my phone (Nokia 5800) and everything went right. When I synchronised them with OVI, all events scheduled before 1975 got moved to December 2010 or January 2011 (day of month was preserved, though).
This is a bug and users should be warned/informed.

If I set MD-Soft Birthdays to create memo events rather than anniversary events for my contacts' birthdays, one-time-only memos are created for the current and next year and at least they are not moved to december.
However, another strange behaviour/bug happens when syncing: the synced memo events appear in the online OVI calendar one day earlier, i.e. a memo scheduled in the device's calendar on 25 August (because that's the birthday date) will appear on OVI calendar on the 24 August. The memo is then not further synced with the calendar, i.e. if I delete the 25 Aug memo from the device's calendar, the corresponding (wrong) 24 Aug memo is not deleted from OVI and, vice versa, the 24 Aug memo is not synced back to device's calendar even if it appears in OVI. Further, the wrong 24 Aug memo is then treated as an independent entry and synced back to the device.
That's annoying, because besides not working, now I have to remove all those wrong events! Luckily, Birthdays allows to search and remove all events starting with '[B]' (not only those it created itself), which also takes care of the wrong memos that got synced back. Otherwise, since OVI Calendar does not allow to search for strings shorter than 4 characters [DOH!], I would have needed to delete them manually!

Media Sync: Missing Reminders for Calendar Sync

So far the only problem I have with the new Media Sync is that the calendar syncs but doesn't add reminders on the phone. Is this supposed to happen or is it a feature that hasn't been implemented yet?
I use the latest Mac OS: 10.6
My BB's OS: 4.2.1.107

Overall, I think the Mac OS BB Desktop Manager is very poorly done. Shame on RIM for having released this at this stage - it's a joke. My staff are having a TON of issues syncing.
I remember RIM pushing back the release date, but people kept asking for Desktop Manager for Mac ASAP and so RIM delivered. Like most v1.0 software, it's bug ridden, so we have to trust developers to patch up the software as users discover them.
My strife is that it's very obscure as to how to submit bugs or at least communicate with the developers. This forum is a great solution, but I haven't had a reply from any developers.

Looking for exchange calendar sync groupcal *****

Looking for exchange calendar sync system to replace sucky groupcal.
I've had nothing but problems with it. I get duplicate calendars, duplicate calendar entries, and the daemon stops updating from the
then the support folks are threatening to cut off support and no longer help me to fix their broken code!
I wasted money and so much time on this app, is there anything else out there that does a better job?

Not to mention that it doesn't work with Leopard now! I wish there was a way to get my Exchange calendar to sync to a third party that would sync with iCal 3.0. Since there is not support for CalDAV it would be nice if Exchange would support this!

Major problems with iPhone 4 & iPad 2 both 5.1.1. - Outlook Calendar sync

Folks, really need some help here, being forced to revert to Blackberry Bold 9000 because of issues with Outlook Calendar sync since 5.1.1 upgrade on both my iPhone & iPad. Our company Enterprise Active Sync server is 2003 (please don't mention upgrade - already a seperate conversation byt all costs).
email sync's fine on both devices, plus i can continue to use both iCloud accounts, and BT yahoo mail etc !
national holidays set up in Outlook calendar come across, as does some calendar items, but then falls into a resync mode with nothing staying in the device, i can also see and read calendar invites, but once accepted, they disappear !
Searching the internet suggests I'm not alone with this issue - any ideas welcome, seems not to be a problem on os 4 !!! but A) I don't know how to regress and B) why should I ?
Many thanks in advance, please don't make me go back to a BB !!!
Finally, I've been using the devices without issue for nearly 2 years - so again it's linked to 5.1.1. upgrade !

Hi Tim
Firstly, apologies for the slow response to your very quick reply !
I've checked back, we're using Exchange 2007.
We've actually got a ticket open with Apple at present, so anticipate that a patch may be available.
It is still curious though that out of a 200 user community trialling our internal iPhone & iPad pilot, we only have 2 issues (mine and a colleagues), however anticipate that there will be more issues as nearly entire community is on 5.1.1.
On a second point, any ideas how one can rollback to 4.3.3 on an iPhone or iPad ? I can't find anything that implies a self rollback without jail breaking the device ?
Thanks again for the help.

How do I remove one of the calendars from iCloud but keep it on the iPhone to sync with Outlook by USB and keep the other calendars synced on iCloud ?

iPhone 5, Macs and iPads at home, Windoze7 system at work.
Using iCloud to sync calendars, contacts, etc on all the home devices. Used USB cable to sync at work with the Windows system, with the Outlook 2010 corporate account (corporate server). I need only the Outlook calendar to be synced, syncing the contacts created too many problems with duplication, etc. No need for that. Worked fine until the latest upgrate to iOS7 and iTunes 11.1. Used to have a calendar that was not on iCloud and was simply and exclusively syncing between the iPhone and the Windows computer at work. The other 3 calendars synced fine with the macs and iOS devices via iCloud but not with the machine at work - keeping private records private.
Upon the iOS upgrade, all calendars are now on iCloud. I am no longer able to remove one - for security too - from the iCloud and sync it with the Windows computer exclusively. I managed to sync it once on the PC with iTunes by switching iCloud off on the iPhone before connection by USB cable. Trying it again, it tells me that it will erase all items on the Outlook account (the "more than 25% of your records are going to change" alert) and won't add or modify any. I stopped the sync in time...
Tried on the iCloud site for a solution to remove the calendar, nothing.
There is no iCloud setup on this corporate computer - no access permitted. The USB cable connection is the only solution and up to the upgrade of the iOS this went seamlessly.
Any solution out there?
Thanks
Vladski

I share a similar situation (usb iTunes sync with Outlook with my corporate laptop; personal calendar on icloud).
With IOS7, at first, iTunes/Windows does not propose Outlook sync anymore. I need to switch off calendar from iTunes to enable usual usb sync with Outlook. I had to sync it twice while checking "replace iphone data" to get a stable behaviour (like before) IOS7.When I try to re-enable icloud calendars, it proposes me to merge them...
I did not test merging so far...
IOS7 and iTunes 11.1 are not completely polished ;-)
