Google calendar has same username than other e-mai...

Here's the deal:
my better half has a e-mail account, which address is [email protected]
Then few years back, we decided that we needed shared calender, but she didn't want gmail account, so I made her a google account, which username is [email protected]
Now when she got her new 920, you can't put there 2 accounts (one for her mail, other for google calendar) with same "address" [email protected]
Any easier solution than making new account for google calendar?

A google account is a gmail account
A gmail account does not have to be a google account

ICal will only to connect to old google calendar with same email

I used my email address to establish a Google calendar and link it to iCal. I have since abandoned that goodle calendar and started using a different calendaring program, but with the same email address. When I try to link the new calendar program with iCal it recognizes the old email address and attempts to connect it to the old google calendar. I don't have deleted all of the old accounts, but there must be a preferences file or something that is being kept around. Any ideas?

Just in case I was unclear, here's my scenario. I have a google calendar on my iCal that I want to share. I can share from Google but the person I want to send it to isn't set up on Google (old man). However, he does have an iPhone and understands that all he has to do is accept an invitation to see a shared calendar from an iOS device. Share a google calendar the same way I share a iCal is what I'm trying to figure out without going through each entry and converting to a new calendar.

My google calendar has disappeared. i have removed and readded still nothing. it is synced just not there.

My google calendar has disappeared. I have removed it and readded it still nothing. I have synced it still nothing. Can anyone help?

Launch the Calendar app, tap "Calendars" in the top-left corner, and make sure that your Google calendars are actually selected. I find that, by default, non-iCloud calendars aren't always selected when added.

My imported Google calendar has collapsed, and when I try to create a new calendar, thunderbird don't accept the location, copied right from the Google calendar

One day my Google Calendar in T'bird wasn't able to sync and I couldn't do anything, so I have deleted the calendar and started to try to create a new one (which would be the same as the old). I have followed the steps of description, but when I have tried to copy the XML location of my private calendar (from Google Calendar), the URL has received a red frame and the Next button has been inactive.
I don't know what the problem is. I have tried the ICalendar, but it wasn't good, I couldn't edit the events, just saw them.

Thank in advance

see http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2014/10/lightning-and-caldav.html at the very minimum I think you will need to modify the hidden preference mentioned there

Can Exchange syncing of Google Calendar sync farther back than 9 months?

When I set up the iPad to sync using exchange, I expected that all calendar data would be sync'ed. There is a sync preference that allows the user to choose Events 2 Weeks Back, 1 Month Back, etc., and I have chosen All Events. However, when I look at the iPad calendar, some events farther back than about 9 months are not sync'ed.
The google calendar is identical to my iCal (I use busysync to keep them synced), and both have events going back about 6 years.

Accessing a Google account as an Exchange account with the iPad's Mail application is still relatively new and still a BETA I believe. Most new things that Google introduces remains a BETA for an indefinite period of time.
If no change after deleting and recreating the account on your iPad, I suggest contacting Google technical support to report this problem.

Google Calendar has lost all my events, could this have happened with the last upgrade of Firefox

All my events suddenly disappeared after my last upgrade of FireFox. I have deleted cookies etc but no events show up from Fire Fox or IE8 attempts. I believe this is a Google issue as a result of their attempt to upgrade their own Google Calendar product. Can you confirm this is absolutely not a FireFox related issue?
Also my Wall Street Journal now fails to load articles sending me a "failure to load type message...please try again" message. On the please try again the clicked article loads ok and all others load as long as I don't close FireFox.
Ideas would be appreciated.

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Site Preferences"
Clearing "Site Preferences" in "Clear Recent History" will remove exceptions that are stored in content-prefs.sqlite (site specific settings for zoom) and permissions.sqlite (exceptions for images, cookies, pop-ups, software; Tools > Page Info > Permissions) in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
The password exceptions (Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Show Passwords) are also removed from signons.sqlite.

Screen Variant , user has dif field than others

Hello All,
I have three questions, which are related to each
1-I wonder what is the differences between Screen variant(IE FB50 you can define screen variant) and user parameter SU3 or SU01D as in
SPRO Tcode O7E6 based on some FB50 Field( GL entry ) you can define user parameter and select Field for
Also as third one we can define variant for tcode under SHD0, I thought if you create the Var under
this option it should be available in FB50 as well -which they are- but when I am
looking at FB50 variant selection I can see more than what I can find under
SHD0, why is that?
2- I have user that her screen in FB50 is different than
anybody else, her screen columns are few (she doesn’t have Value date Field), I
asked her to reset the screen var(over phone) but seems she still has issue. Any
help please?
3- I copy her ID from Prod to QA; I have all column and Field
that she is looking for not sure if user parameter or screen var comes when basis
refresh QA from Prod
Thanks for your help,
Hamid

hi sri,
    Transaction code : <b>SHD0</b>
    First you have to create a screen variant.
    Second you want tp assign the screen variant to the
    transaction variant.
    thrid you can assign it to the specific user in the
    standard variant.
   so that particular user only will be having that screen variant.
Reward points if it is helpful.

Published Calendar has same event multiple times

Hi, I have created a calendar group with four sub groups on iCal. On iCal, each event shows up only one time. However, when I published the calendar and went to check on it...each event is on each date a min of 3x, up to 15x...
what's up? how do I fix this????
thanks
julie

I am Tiger 10.4.2 iCal 2.0.2 and having the same problems. I haven't found a way to prove this, but I think iCal publishing is only smart enough to deal with 1 Mac. My problem started when I turned on .Mac syncing for iCal. My .Mac account is syncing my three macs (1 home, 1 powerbook, 1 powermac at work) and guess what? My appointments show up THREE times.
Does anyone know if Apple is looking into this unexpected side effect from .Mac syncing published calendars? If not, I will give them a call on the phone to escallate this. I am guessing that there are multiple scenerios that make .Mac get confused and essentially treat a duplicate as if it was unique.

New Dell laptop. In Firefox I cannot enter url in address bar or search terms in Google - Have reinstalled, same result. Other programs work. Have done variousus scans - found nothing. Otto S., Toronto

In Thunderbird I seem to be able to enter partial account information but then I invariably cannot go further. The only utililities I have installed are those I have used before without problems. The present version of Windows has a popup utility that asks if you want a particular program to make changes to your machine. This is new to me (at least I think it is part of Windows). Again no such problem with other programs -- key board works fine.

Do you still see the Navigation Toolbar with the location bar and the search bar on it?
* Firefox > Options
* View > Toolbars
Try to open a new window to see if that works
* Firefox > New Tab > New Window
* File > New Window
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Google calendar event color tags not showing up in IPhone iCal - any fixes?

I have an iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) and am trying to sync my google calendar to the built in iCal app. The events sync both ways, but the color tags I assign to each event does not sync. It used to bother me that the only way to color code events in google calendar was to create multiple calendars, but it seems as though google calendar has added the ability to change the color for each event so I'm going back to google calendar. For example, my classes are in blue, exams are in pink, meetings are turquoise, etc.
I synced my google calendar to the iPhone iCal (via settings, turned on calendar tab listed under gmail account that I use for my google calendar), and all the events sync correctly (can add events on google calendar or iPhone and it syncs), but the colors do not sync. When I view my iPhone iCal all the events from my google calendar are the same color, even if they have different color tags when viewed online. Also, when I add an event on the iPhone iCal, the event syncs to the google calendar but there is no option to change the color tag for the event and it shows up as the default grey color when viewed online.
Is there a way to fix this? Or is this something that google and apple have not resolved?
I would prefer not to use a third party app, but I might consider it if there is no other fix. Thanks!

Hello lulu and welcome to the Palm forums.
I don't know of a way to make the color codes from iCal sync with the color codes on the Palm Z22. The Missing Sync for Palm OS has more features than Palm Desktop, but I also don't believe it will sync the category color codes.

How do i sync ical to google calendars with Leopard?

Hi I am trying to syn two macbooks ical to google calendars. I can do it on one by going ical>preferences>accounts>+account>
which pops up a box with Accounts information : server settings: Delegation along the top and description: username:password:fullname:refreshcalendars along the left
But after ical>preferences>accounts>+account> on the other older macbook with Leopard OS the pop up is more basic with no tabs across the tops just down the left description :username:password: account URL
But when I input exactly the same info it says the login failed - your password was rejected by the server but the password is absolutely correct and I have double checked it by logging in else where.
Any advice?

I found the answer.
The computer that I was having problems adding the Ical cal dav account to for google calendars has iCal 3 software;
This is how to set up the account after turning on 2 step verification in google and creating a application specific password
Set Up Google Calendar iCal Sync in iCal 3
To set up Google Calendar iCal synchronization manually:
Select iCal | Preferences... from the menu in iCal.
Go to the Accounts tab.
Click + beneath the Accounts list.
Enter "Google Calendar" under Description:.
Type your Google Calendar account user name (say, your Gmail address) under Username:.
Enter the Google Calendar account's password under Password:.
Expand Server Options.
Type "https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/" (not including the quotation marks) underAccount URL:.
Append your Google Calendar user name to that.
Append "/user" (excluding, again, the quotation marks) to the that.
Finally, you could have something like "https://www.google.com/ calendar/ dav/[email protected]/user" under Account URL:.
Click Add.
Highlight the newly added account in the Accounts list.
Go to the Delegation tab.
Make sure all calendars you want to access in addition to your default Google Calendar calendar are checked.
Close the Accounts preferences window.

ICloud for PC not compatible with Google calendar sync?

I have a PC (Win7), a MacBook Pro, an iPhone and an iPad 2. Since MobileMe stopped their calendar sync, I have used 2-way Google calendar sync between all of my devices successfully to keep my calendar updated on all devices. I continued to use MobileMe to keep my contacts synced, but that option is ending this week, so I purchased CodeTwo to sync my contacts via iCloud. I installed Code Two and the iCloud control panel on my PC, and set them to sync only contacts, and blam ... my PC calendar no longer syncs to my Google calendar. All of the other calendars are syncing to Google and each other.
My PC calendar is the most important one and I need it to sync to all devices. I use Google calendar sync since it handles the Outlook group meeting invitations I receive & send through my workplace seamlessly (and iCloud does not). So using iCloud for my calendar is not an option.
How do I fix this?

After about an hour on the phone with Apple support, we discovered that somehow there was more than one calendar - one that I generally use and two marked archive. One was actually my Outlook archive folder, one was the Outlook default calendar (which was also marked archive) which is the one that WAS syncing with my Google calendar (but that we couldn't see), and the third calendar which is the one that I thought wasn't syncing with Google Calendar.
So now my question has changed - where did this mystery calendar come from. At one time I did have MobileMe installed on my computer for both calendars and contacts. I stopped using MobileMe for my calendar when it stopped syncing automatically and I uninstalled MobileMe today as part of our troubleshooting. Is it possible that when I installed the iCloud control panel on my PC and set it to sync contacts only, that it picked up the MobileMe calendar? In any event, I need to get rid of the unexpected "archive" folder and start syncing Outlook's default calendar. Any ideas how I do that?
There are days when computers completely drain me.

Currently using Google calendar want to move...

to strictly using iCal since we are using Macs. I'm in Japan, and my friend is in the USA. We are currently using Google calendar to schedule our times of when we can get online and practice our Japanese. Google calendar has been set up in iCal so I can receive events from my friend, and I can send to him. Our available times are showing up correctly in iCal.
Is it possible to remove the Google portion and still use iCal for our scheduling needs? Neither one of us has Mobileme though, so it would have to be from our computers. Would we still need a host server? Would this new iCloud thing in the fall be a good alternative?
So far the google way has been fine, but I am checking into a better way if any to do this.
Thank you.

Yes, you have to have an external server of some sort: at the moment it's Google. You can't just do it from your computers - well, in theory you could but I don't advise trying to go down that road, it requires quite advanced knowledge.
As you're not using MobileMe the only really viable alternative is iCloud when it's rolled out - both of you may need Lion, it's not absolutely clear about that at the moment. But in practice it's not likely to be any better than Google if you have that working OK now.

Syncing is not happening when adding events to google calendar via iPhone or laptop

Google Calendar is the only calendear that I use on my iPhone. My Google Calendar has a total of 8 "sub calendars". If I add an event to my Google calendar via my new iPhone 5S or via the lap top-the two devices are not communicating with one another-therefore not updating each other.
I just transitioned to the iPhone 5S last Sunday. All settings used on my previous iPhone 4 were saved and transferred to new device.
I have attempted to make changes to settings while the iPhone is syncing to laptop via ITUNES and by searching General Settings-Mail/Contacts/Calendars on phone itself, but no change has granted what I'm looking for, and I'm making more of a mess for myself. Pressing the Calendars app on phone-its home screen used to read:
All Calendars
IMac Calendars
All Google Calendar *with the possiblity to check off which calendars would be seen on my phone. This NO LONGER APPEARS this way.
My choices now read:
Hide All Calendars
All Google Calendar -with the option to check off all 8 sub calendars.
Google calendar is not a "new" account, again, this was set up on my old phone and working up until the switch over.
Appreciate your help.

Lumia 800 google calendar dunc issues

My google calendar has stopped syncing suddenly after working flawlessly all these years. Any clues on whether this is temporary or is it something else.

Hi jerryaz,
Thanks for your feedback on this. When you use the Hotmail connector it will only sync contacts and calendars which are in the list for your LiveID in Outlook. So if you make changes to a calendar which is not in the list like the one you used before you installed the connector it will indeed not sync to your LiveID (and the Lumia). So you must copy your 'main' calendar to the LiveID list and use that version from then on out.
Also, you can sync contacts and calendar with Google using a Google account from Settings>email+accounts>add account. After setting this up you can further customize the sync settings with Google sync through the web interface on the phone using m.google.com
Hope this helps,
Kosh
