Can I sync my 6300 calendar with Thunderbird/Light...

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I've just bought a bluetooth dongle for my PC and only yesterday connected my 6300 to computer and updated software etc for the first time.
I'd love to be able to sync the calendar with Thunderbird/Lightning automatically as it connects. Is this possible?
And if so, is the sync two ways or just one way. I have heaps of entries in the calendars on my work computer. I'd love to be able to sync my phone while at work, then when I go home update my home computer's calendar from the phone's. If that makes sense.

A new problem is that Windows 7 does not use Windows Calendar so the simple solution from above that works for Vista doesn't work in Windows 7.
These are the steps I took. It’s likely that not all steps are required. Sorry about the messed up formatting.....
1.       Get Windows Calendar working on Windows 7.
This is very straightforward. Follow the link below. Run it once to generate the .ics file
(http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/install-windows-calendar-in-windows-7/)
2.       Tell Lightning to use Windows Calendar’s .ics file
In Thunderbird, go to calendar view, right click on calendar listed on the left hand side and select properties….change its default file to point to your Windows Calendar File (C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Calendar\Calendars\Your Calendar.ics)
3.       Uninstall software that may complicate things
If they are installed, uninstall Nokia PC Suite, Nokia Ovi Suite and Microsoft Outlook.
Make the following registry changes (messing with the registry can wreck your operating system. Don’t do it unless you know what you’re doing. I take no responsibility etc etc etc)
Thanks to “Classic” on this german forum (and Google Translate) for this bit
http://www.winfuture-forum.de/index.php?showtopic=174635
Open regedit.exe, navigate to Hkey Local Machine -> Software and add a new key called Windows Calendar. In that key add the following string values:
http://www.winfuture-forum.de/index.php?s=c1afe7229fa2613d26a1b82c604c879a&act=attach&type=post&id=3...
Reboot
Install PC Suite (compatibility mode may help, I tried it a few different ways but in the end I don’t think it matters)
6.       Tell PCSuite that its running on Vista
Go back into the registry
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Nokia.PCSync.Windows7PIM.ISynchAppU
Create an exact replica of this key (including its contents) but call it HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Nokia.PCSync.VISTAPIM.ISynchAppU
(It’s likely that you could just rename Windows7PIM to VISTAPIM but I created the replica key)
You should be good to go

TS3999 how can I sync my icloud calendar with a google calendar

how can I sync my icould calendar with a google calendar?

The calendars reside on different servers and as far as I know there isn't a way to sync between them. You can, of course, add your Google calendar to your devices and continue to use Google to keep it in sync. If you open the Calendars app on your devices and tap Calendars on the top left, then tap Show All Calendars, your Google and iCloud calendar events will appear together your calendar. You will only need to decide which one you wish to use as your default when adding new enteries, then set this in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar.

Can I sync my iPhone calendar with exchange server AND ical on my mac ?

I have been happily using my iPhone synced with my Macbook over usb via iTunes.
I have contacts and iCal syncing. I have a number of 'calendars' set up in iCal which allow me to view separate aspects of home and work but they all exist within iCal. iPhone just treats these as colour coded appointments (different colour for each ical calendar)
I really like this set up.
However, I just changed jobs to a firm where they have a hosted outlook exchange set up and I need to use the exchange calendar for work appointments and showing my availability.
I have managed to setup my iPhone to work with the Exchange server for email as well as in apple Mail on my mac. This has all worked fine. However, I hesitated when iPhone asked if i wanted to sync my contacts and calendar. I said no as I was unsure if my private calendar/contacts would be uploaded to the public work area.
In fact it seems that this is the least of my worries:
As I have read on apple support for iPhone:
"Note that after configuring an Exchange ActiveSync account, all existing contact and calendar information on the iPhone or iPod touch is overwritten. Additionally, iTunes no longer syncs contacts and calendars with your desktop computer. You can still sync your iPhone or iPod touch wirelessly with MobileMe services."
So I am really pleased that I didn't let it sync those and wipe out my personal data if that is really true.
But now I am unsure how best to enable myself to view and update the work calendar on exchange.
Also it would be nice to see work contacts on my iPhone.
Contacts
- although i have said no to sync contacts with Exchange in fact it looks like I can get contacts ok - when i send email from the Exchange account on the phone , it searches Exchange contacts on the server as i type in the TO box.
- also in Contacts on the iPhone I have a new group that has been created with the name of my Exchange account. The group appears to be blank when you go into it on the phone, but you can type in the search box and get contact details from the server just fine.
This seems workable for now for my purposes, although updating contacts is not going to be possible that way.
I'd like more info on that if poss but more importantly..
Calendar
- Unlike Contacts, no Calendar has been auto created for Exchange
- Unlike contacts, I can't see how I can view or search or create an appointment in my Exchange calendar on the iPhone
What is the best solution to this problem - I presume lots of people face the same dilemma. My initial research suggests that there are multiple ways round this but all of them look like workarounds with various disavantages.
Questions are
- Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
- Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
- What is the best work around for this?
At the moment I am seriously considering getting a separate iPhone for work and have that sync with Exchange fully although that seems a bit drastic and does not solve the problem of seeing work and home appointments on the same calendar.

Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
Only if you're running Snow Leopard and your employer will allow access (different than iPhone/mobile device access, so most likely not), but not needed - keep reading.
Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
No. It was true, but with the v3.0 software that changed - you can now sync your Exchange contacts and calendar over the air, and your Address Book and iCal via iTunes over the docking cable.
What is the best work around for this?
None needed. When you set up the exchange account, and choose to turn on syncing of contacts and calendars, you will be prompted to remove all other data, or keep it on the iPhone. Choose the keep option. Note that in that case, your personal data will not be uploaded to the Exchange server - the iPhone keeps them separate (although you can choose to view them in a merged fashion).
I have this set up on my phone (Exchange calendar along side personal and other calendars from iCal). Same for contacts. Works great.

Can I sync contacts and calendars with iTunes Match enabled?

I’m getting an iPhone in a couple of weeks and really want iTunes match but the more I read about it the more I’m wondering whether it’ll be worth the hassle. I’ve loads of old CD rips at 128 kbps and protected iTunes files, also at 128 kbps, and what really attracts me is the idea of upgrading all these to unprotected 256 kbps.
I have a Macbook for personal use and a PC for work, being able to sync both computers to the phone will be essential for me. I know that I wouldn’t be able to sync music with iTunes match enabled but if I can sync contacts and calendars and drag Office documents to the phone from both computers that would be OK.
Please could someone tell me whether this would be possible?

I think I understand now, it's nothing to do with syncing music - everything is synced through iTunes. Have I understood properly?
Yes. Including music.

This could be a major blow for me as I'll be using the iPhone mainly for work so I will have to Sync with the PC. If I understand this correctly, once I decide to sync with Outlook on the PC as the main priority I can no longer sync with the Macbook?
What if I ditch iCloud and sync everything through USB?
If it is possible for you to do so you might want to consider signing up for an iCloud account <http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html>. Keep in mind that iCloud and iTunes Match are seperate services. One does not require the other. However iCloud will work with Outlook 2007 and up so you can keep all your contacts in sync across the devices. You can also sign up for iTunes Match if you want. Or you might even consider using Google to do what you want. It is not necessary for you to keep syncing via USB, unless that is just what you are comfortable doing.

How can I sync my outlook calendar with iPhone or calendar on Maverick?

I have just updated to Mavericks on my iMac. I use Microsoft Outlook for email, contacts and calendars. How do I now sync these on my iPhone ?
The only sync seems to be via iCloud, this is sharing calendar and contacts on the iMac but if I make any calendar additions to the outlook calendar it doesn't copy to the phone or the iMac calendar and similarly if I add an item to the phone calendar it syncs to the iMac calendar but doesn't copy to outlook.

1. Apple has removed sync services in OS X Mavericks. Therefore, you cannot sync Outlook 2011 with Contacts or Calendar.
2. Apple has removed the ability to sync through iTunes in OS X Mavericks, so that, even if you use Contacts and Calendar on the Mac, you can only sync them with your iPhone through iCloud, thus exposing all your contacts and calendar information to the mercies of the Web.
3. Microsoft does not not support CalDAV and CardDAV in Outlook, so there is no way to sync directly through iCloud, except perhaps by setting up a Microsoft Exchange account.
4. Apple makes it extremely difficult (virtually impossible) to revert to a version of OSX that is earlier than OS X Mavericks once Mavericks is installed.
In short, we are screwed and neither company seems to care.

How can I sync my iPhone calendar with another iPhone using iCloud?

Must each iOS device being sync'd with another use the same apple id to sync using iCloud?

Yes. Both devices would have to use the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud, and have Calendars turned on.
However, you can use another service (I use Gmail) to sync a shared calendar without having to use the same Apple ID.
My partner and I share a joint Gmail account, and have it added to our iPhones, and have the Calendar option enabled. Whenever I want to add an event to the calendar, I just temporarily change from my default (iCloud Home) to the Gmail.

Can I sync my iCloud calendar with Outlook 365? I upgraded from Office 2010 and now it doesn't sync.

I upgraded from Outlook 2010, and now it doesn't update in Outlook 365. Thinking I can't do it, and it's a pity, cause I want it all to integrate on phone and on desktop. I'm running Windows 7 and Office 365. The iCloud app works fine with Internet Explorer, but I can't get the calendar to update. Any suggestions?

I can't sync my iCloud calendar with my iPhone calendar

This whole iCloud sync thing has me totally confused. I set my iPhone to sync with my Mac (I thought), yet nothing appears on my Mac computer calendar or my iCloud calendar. I use my iPhone calendar more than any other calendar so I'm constantly needing to transfer to computer and iCloud from iPhone. Why do they not sync? Then there's the issue of creating a google calendar. I can't import anything from anywhere to that. Either I'm brain dead or something is wrong.
Halp!
Thanks in advance.
Leonard

If you sync your desktop iCal with iCLoud and your iPhone with iCloud then they will all be in sync. I do that and my desktop iCal and iPhone Cal are in sync.
If you prefer to not use iCLoud, go to your desktop iTunes, and sync you iPhone with it. On the Info tab select the Sync iCal Calendars.

How can I sync my Andriod Calendar with my PCs Outlook Calendar

Is there a way to sync my Vortex'z Android Calendar with my PC's MS Outlook Calendar, either via USB cable or via Bluetooth connection????

My Yahoo Calendar was running fine and yesturday my iPhone asked for my Yahoo password, "Enter the password for the CalDAV account "yahoo" "and stopped working.
I type in the Yahoo password on my iPhone for the CalDAV account and get "Calendar Account Unable to verify account information."
This happened in October, 2011 as well and within 24 hour it was working again. Do not know if it was a iPhone problem or a Yahoo problem.
Funny thing is there are no appointments on the iPhone calendar, but all the birthdays are still there when I clicked on "List" at the bottom of the iPhone calendar page. I then pulled the page down and there is a list of 3 appointments dating from Dec. 11, 2011 and earlier.

How can I sync my device calendar with the Windows Calendar on Vista?

Hello,
I have just got a PC running Vista (without Outlook) and am using the Windows Calendar and Addressbook. I seem to be able to sync the addressbooks, but my Blackberry Desktop isn't recognising the Windows Calendar application to allow me to sync that. Can this be fixed, or do I need to shell out of Outlook instead?
Thanks to anyone who can help me on this one,
Duncan

as seen on http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/#tab_tab_sysreq
Windows Vista Calendar is not compatible with the blackBerry calendar.
you will either have to use the ones listed, or use Google Calendar as a middleware and use Google Mobile sync to have realtime wireless synchronization.
