Duplicate Facebook Birthday Entries In Calendar After Using Device Swap in BB Link

Hello,
I recently swapped a Verizon Z10 for a T-Mobile Z10. After using the BlackBerry Link software to perform the device swap I have 2 entries for each facebook birthday in my calendar. I tried deleting one copy, but the only option in the overflow menu is to share the birthday.
Has anyone else had this issue; and have you resolved it?

Hey captainbdsc,
As a test can I have you remove your Facebook account from the BlackBerry Z10 smartphone, once it is removed can you still view the Birthday reminders/events?
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Thanks

Facebook birthday language in Calendar

I travel internationally for a living. For some reason, this month, all of the Facebook birthdays showing in Calendar are in the local language. All else is in English. Have not had this issue before. I have looked up everything I can think of in both Calendar and Facebook support. No solution so far. Thanks for the help,

How do I remove facebook birthdays from my calendar in ios 7?

I have been unable to remove facebook birthdays from my iphone 5 calendar. My contacts haven't been synchronised, only my calendar? I have deleted the app, signed out from it, nothing seems to work. Can anyone help?

Click on Calendars in the top menu bar and deselect the Birthdays Calendar.

I've set my iphone not to include Facebook birthdays in my calendar but it keeps doing it. How do I fix it for good so I don't get FB birthday calendar reminders?

In Settings > Facebook, I have Calendar set to "off". In Calendars, I have FB birthdays unchecked. For some reason, it seems to default back to including FB birthdays in my calendar and I don't know how to set it to "off" for good.
I don't want to unsynch FB because I have a lot of contacts whose information I want, I just don't want the constant birthday reminders.

If you feel you have been ripped off, you should take the matter up with
the person who sold you the iPhone. Perhaps Amazon can assist since
the iPhone was not correctly described.

Blackberry Travel 3.1.1.2 - Duplicate entries in Calendar after system restore

I love the Blackberry Travel app, it is an absolute must for me and I auto sync it to my calendar as a default setting. I have the Z10, and Blackberry Travel 3.1.1.2 software.
Every time I install a new OS, and resync my calendar from Outlook using Link, after I reinstall and log back into Blackberry Travel, it will create duplicates of my upcoming trip entries in my calendar.
These are entries that were created by Blackberry Travel previously and were synced with Outlook prior to the system wipe and then restored using an Outlook sync.
It would be great if Outlook would check for calendar conflicts for preexisting entries that are exactly the same before adding a new trip to the calendar.
I also noted that if I have a trip (with a name October Travel) with a departure date of October 6 (for example) and arrival date of October 13, although the return flight is correctly placed in the calendar on the 13th, the entire trip is marked from October 6-12 (missing the last day in the calendar).
Please check on these issues, otherwise super app!

Yea, I've noticed the same on the duplicate entry issue, and just delete the duplicate.

Facebook birthdays in Google Calendar not showing on iPhone 4S

I wanted to add birthdays to my iPhone's calendar, and the easiest way I found to add so many birthdays was to add them to Google Calendar using Facebook's URL export feature. On my iPhone, although all the calendars are checked off to show in the app, there's absolutely nothing showing up from my Google Calendar. Any ideas how to fix that?

Restarting my phone fixed it! Now everything appears.

Unsynking Facebook birthdays from ipad calendar?

All my Facebook contacts´ birthdays show up in my ipad calendar. ( I have not synked the ipad to Facebook).
How can I get rid of all this birthday info which is cluttering up my calendar?

@phil1992
Open settings and then choose 'Facebook'.
Then under "Allow These Apps to Use Your Account" turn Calendar off. Birthdays will be gone but so will your events.
Alternative:
Just disable both Calender and Contacts
1: Settings
2:Notifications
3:scroll down to Facebook
4:Turn Badge App Icon switch to 'Off'

IOS 5: no entries in calendar after startup

Hi all,
I have updated my iPad to iOS 5. Since then, after starting the calendar app for the first time, I see no entries in the current view. Changing the view (e.g. changing the month, or switching from month to week view) brings them back immediately. All the calendars are synched with mobileme, if that is of any help.
Anybody experiencing the same?

Same here - iOS 5 on iPad 1
Very annoying... Music player also has issues, when playing a song and viewing cover art full screen you can't get back to play list. Screen is just blank other than play controls. Have to kill app then restart to make it work again.

Contacts, messages, history were lost after using device switch from BB 9320 to BB Classic

Hi! I recently bought a BB Classic and used to use a BB 9320, I used the device switch app to back up all these infos. turns out, most of my contacts starting august 2013 up to now were lost. Please help how I can restore my contacts. Thanks in advance

About how many contacts are you missing?
Messages are not synced from the old device, but rather from your email server. You should be able to set your message sync time frame by opening your Hub > Settings > Accounts > select your email and edit. If not, delete that account and add it back again and you'll find the "sync timeframe" in the advanced settings.
Call logs. Only the last 30 days of call logs are kept.

Calendar app do not sync facebook birthdays

Hello,
I'm having a issue with my Xperia T3.
Not very long ago I could see facebook birthdays in Google calendar app (new app).
Currently, spite Xperia with Facebook is well defined, and even facebook app is synced for download all information about contacts, I cannot see birthdays only events.
In the app that comes with mobile it appears, after a while... In sunrise app also do not appears...
This is strange, and I already tried to sync again, several times, erased app with autosync on and off, and even put original definitions...
Result is always the same... Do not appears birthdays in calendar.
Can you help me?

Check the calemdar settings and report back, also, you might want to try Google calendar app.

Multiple instances of the same calendar events using Oulook and Desktop Manager

BB Curve 8310
OS 4.5
Desktop Manager 5.0
Theme = Dimension Today
Outlook 2007 “full version”
Using two POP3 email accounts. One is a personal gmail and the other is most important a business email. I do not use gmails calendar.
12 Months or so back I would sometimes get duplicate appointments in my BB calendar after a sync but Outlook showed a single appointment. I had read that it was intermittent with the theme “Today” and the advice was “do not accept appointment invites in Outlook”.
I forgot and accepted several I the past week. Now almost all my appointments are doubled up in my BB and again, my Outlook seems fine. I just noticed that I can now select which calendar to “show” in my BB.
Is this caused by getting an email invite to an appointment?
1)   Does anyone know what is causing this?
2)   Could you suggest a quick fix?
3)   Could you suggest a permanent fix?
Thanks

Thanks Bifocals ,,,,, I'm blushing just a bit. I'd put one of those red smiley faces but I would have to post another question to find out how!
BB Calendar CICAL = personal email
BB Messaging CMIME = work email
This is not correct the default services values need both reflect the main email associated account.
They need to both be your work address. This could very well explain the duplicates
Outlook has/uses only the work email address show it has to be the default one - I have long ago deleted my personal one from Outlook.
Outlooks Calendar Data File recurrence (none) 339, in Outlook 2007 I had to find them a different way but I think it's what your looking for.
My BB shows a "default" = 217, "personal" = 185, and "work" = 309
The records in the device default calendar will not synchronize. The are in effect "orphaned"
records that at one time belonged to an email address. Usually caused by deleting the email account or losing the service books for the email account. We need to remove them
can you tell what email account they were created from? And where they would logically be moved?
A couple of notes - now that you have had me flipping through different areas I have noticed a few interesting things that maybe would be beneficial. While using Outlook 2003, I used several email addresses. Don't know if Outlook updates to 2007 or installs a new 2007 program using data from 2003. There was a time that I was sending emails in Outlook from my personal account, there was a slight hiccup and every so often it would revert back, hence I simply deleted it.
I would need to verify it, but I'm pretty sure that the email addresses would have to be installed again.
I'll split that one with you. I'll take the Blackberry knowledgebase. You take the Microsoft outlook support site
I'm now wondering if I delete all the calendars on my BB and do the one way sync? That seems simple enough.
We are gong to do just that, to repair what happened. It will not prevent another recurrence.
You asked for three things:
You wanted a a reason this happened, I think we found it in the default services setup.
You wanted a quick fix, It will be done in with an hour's work.
You also wanted a permanent fix, Want to go for all three?
If you have multiple calendars you will have problems. It's just the nature of the beast.
It's not an "if " but just a matter of "when" deal!
Personally I can't find any logic in the concept of multiple calendars.
People explain they use one for work appointments and one for personal appointments.
I always want to ask why they don't use two watches one for personal and one for work?
I do see the need for separating personal and work email accounts.
Here is I think the best of both worlds answer.
Leave your work email configured and use the work calendar as you would normally.
For your personal email install the Gmail for mobile application. You have access to your
personal and work emails, they are kept separate due to the nature of the Gmail app.
Here is the the cherry on the top. The Gmail app doesn't install a calendar.
So two email addresses one calendar, ain't life grand!
So here is the plan Stan, let me know what you think.
1) On the Blackberry options advanced options, default services. Match both options to your work email.
2) Decide what needs to happen with the 217 device default "orphans".
Also 185 personal records. Are they worth keeping, can they be sent to the work calendar, do they need to be on Outlook.
3) Read this article you can see your options and help you make the best decision.
KB19240 How to merge multiple calendars into one calendar on the BlackBerry smartphone
Read about the Gmail for mobile app see if you think it will work for you: Gmail mobile app
If you don't like it or don't think it's a good fit just let me know and we can go a different way.
Let me know what you want to do,
Thanks,

How do I turn off Facebook birthdays

How do i remove Facebook's birthday notifications?
I want to keep Facebook calendar integration, but I don't want the daily birthday notifications.
Is there a way to turn them off using Facebook, iCloud, or any other way?

In my opinion this is an "on purpose hack" by Facebook as I feel it is to tempt you to log onto Facebook to wish happy birthday, and thus expose you to adverts.
I have disabled Facebook birthdays in my calendar so many times, but it keeps getting checked again as if by magic.
I have disabled access to my calendar from Facebook, even disabled Facebook notifications in Settings, and the option in the Calendar keeps re-selecting itself.
I have now disabled all push notifications in the Facebook app under settings, lets see what happens.
If this is a hack, I hope Facebook get a huge fine for illegal privacy and hacking law breaches. Lets see if the authorities in America or the EU stand up for consumers.

Duplicates & triplicate Calendar items on my ipad after using the iCloud..

i have duplicates Calendar items on my ipad after using the iCloud.. what am i doing wrong?? and how do i fix it?

This solved my triplicate calendar issue:
(short version)
Settings ==> iCloud. Turn off Calenders.
Delete exisiting calendar information when prompted.
Settings ==> iCloud. Turn on Calenders.
Restart Calender App.
(verbose version)
On your iOS devices go to Settings App ==> iCloud. Turn OFF Calendar Syncing. It will ask if you want to keep or delete previous Calendars on your phone, Choose Delete. Restart your Calendar app and see if it's squeaky clean. I had just birthdays and anniverseries. If you are still seeing items other than those (like birthdays) generated by the device then you are bringing in calendars from multiple sources. You'll need to turn off the other sources (if you have their entries duplicated already in the cloud).
Now go back to Settings ==> iCloud and turn the calender back on. Restart the Calendar app, everything should look good now.
