Google calendar sync in N9

It was about two years ago when I got Google calendars work in my N9.
Recently I had to take device to repair and I thought it was good idea to do a full reset to the device.
Now I can't remember if there were some tricks to make the sync work.
Simple adding CalDAV account doesn't seem to work.
Any tips anyone?

I got rid off the error by using a tip from the talk.maemo.org forum.
I added the username to server URL:
https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/
Calendar events didn't show yet,
I try to make sure that it did sync.

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.

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.

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.

Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad? As of today my google calendar not longer appears on either device.

Has anyone started having trouble with google calendar syncing / showing up on their iPhone 4s or iPad 2? As of today it no longer shows up. Thanks.

Let me re-qualify my issue. Under my Google Calendar account I have the main calendar I originally set up when setting up my account. I then set up several other calendars under this same account such as events, work, family and so on. All the calendars showed up on my iPhone and iPad with no problem and worked great for a year and a half now until yesterday. My main calendar does still show up but the others no longer appear on my devices. Going on line to look at my Google calendar/calendars everything is fine with all of them. Any thoughts as to why they no longer show up on my iPhone or iPad? Thanks again.

Is it possible to have my Google calendar sync with my droid but not sync my Google email??

I love having my google calendar sync with my phone. However, it is pulling down my email as well with more information than I would like stored in my droid.

Thanks for your help! I have been fooling with this and at some point must have turned the "sync" off for email. Glad you gave me the path to get there and see that it was actually turned off.

Multiple Google Calendar Sync no longer possible?

I'm trying to set my iPad (WiFi) up to sync with multiple google calendars. I did this successfully with my iPhone 4 a few months ago. Now I'm trying to do the same with my iPad following Google's instructions here:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
However, now when I try to go to m.google.com, I don't get any option to sign in, or a list of my devices. All I get is a page with Google Apps. Has this now changed and Google has not updated this page? Has anyone been able to configure this recently?

Ok. I'm not sure quite how I got this to work. I went to m.google.com from Safari on my iPad. I tapped on "Sync" and it didn't take me anywhere useful. I went back to m.google.com and tapped on "Calendar" and logged in. Still not what I wanted. On a lark, went back to m.google.com and tapped on "Sync" again. Bingo! It brought up a list of my mobile devices. From there, I could select the one I wanted and select my calendars. I think the key was logging in through Calendar.
Best of luck.

Multiple google calendars synced to my ipad with exchange but the entries don't appear

I've done this many times before with various iphones, but my new ipad2 vexes me. I want all my google calendars to appear in the calendar app on my ipad. I've:
set up the google account as an exchange account
signed in to m/google.com/sync
selected the correct device
enabled the calendars
you can see the complete list of calendars in the the cal app, but the actual events don't appear.
if i create a new event on one of these invisable calendars, it appears.
thoughts?

Why does my google calendar sync perfectly to iCal on my Macbook Pro but not my iPhone 4?

The question as title is basically my problem. Before I got my MacBook Pro I used my iPhone 4 (with iOS 5) to use the iCal app to edit my google calendar. Events synced perfectly. After getting my MacBook Pro things still seemed fine as well. I was editing my calendar on iCal on my MacBook Pro, on Google's on-line Calendar App from other computers, and also on my iPhone 4 through the iCal App. Suddently events were not syncing any longer. I don't know what is the problem. Things changed on iCal on the MacBook Pro still syncs to Google's online Calendar App and vise versa, but I can't do a thing with my iPhone 4 iCal.
Any suggestions? I've tried deleting and resyncing my google account to my iPhone without any success.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Matt,
I found my own solution to this problem and I think you can get it to work as well. The thing is that you'll need to make your Google calendar your only calendar. This means that you'll not want to have a Home or Work iCal because that stuff may not sync well with your Google calendar, but the Google Calendar data will appear within iCal on your iOS and Mac computer without any problems.
Before you do any thing I suggest, you must make sure that everything that you want on your calendar is on your on-line Google calendar. If something is not there and you want it there, the thing you'll need to do is manually add it. There is no work around that I have found for this.
Next, on your computer:
1. Go to System Preferences > iCloud
2. Make sure that Calendars is not selected. You don't want your computer or iOS devices to be confused with the iCal Home / Work, etc. calendars. So let's not sync them.
3. Go to System Preferences > Mail, Contacts & Calendars
4. Delete Your Google account there
5. Go to System Preferences > Mail, Contacts & Calendars
6. Re-add your Google account
Now you should be able to go into iCal on your computer and find that your Google calendar is there.
You will need to do a similar thing with your iOS device.
1. Settings > iCloud > Turn off 'Calendars'
2. Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Delete Gmail Account
3. Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Re-add Gmail Account
This should make it so that you can use your Google calendar and it will be synced to your Mac computer, iOS device, and the Internet (Google's Calendar Website).
You can see that this is in a sense a workaround in that you can't sync your iCal Home/Work calendars (or other calendars) created with iCloud to Google. I'm thinking that's the problem I ran into before. Anyway it works for me because I only need the one calendar and others are using Google that I need easy access to.
Let me know if you run into problems and remember you need to confirm that all your data is saved on the google calendar on-line (you can check through Google's website) before doing any of the steps above.

How can I map the category in Outlook to ICal for Google Calendar Syncing

I have the syncing working between Outlook 2011 and iCal and Google Calendar; however all my events come in with a category of "No Category" into iCal. Unless I open iCal and manually change "No Category" to my google calendar it will not sync with Google Calendar. Does anyone know how I can have the category come from Outlook to iCal and default it to my Google Calendar?

Google calendar sync - deleted repeating items do not sync to iPad

Hi,
I'm syncing several Google calendars with the iPad. (the calendars are also synced with my computer, through iCal.) I have several repeating items in the calendar, but when I delete just one of them, the change is not reflected on the iPad. (iCal on the computer syncs just fine.) I have tried both Exchange and CalDAV, but the event deletions do not sync. How do I resolve this?
Incidentally, I do not use my "main" calendar in Google calendar, but use other calendars I created instead. The calendars are not public and no one else is subscribed to them.

I read that, and I tried it as you said - I am using the Exchange server, with push enabled. I even deleted the Exchange account and restarted it.
It seems that this only happens when I alter events in the past - future repeated events work just fine. Maybe the exchange server only pushes alterations to events in the future? I've tried changing the Sync option in Settings -> mail, contact, calendars, that lets you set how far back in the past the calendar should sync events, but as far as I can tell that option doesn't even work. (my events remain synced to one month past.)

Strange errors with iCal - Google calendar syncing.

I use iCal and have it sync to my Google calendar. Recently, when creating a new event, the default alert has been coming up as a random number of minutes (eg. 1540, 1100) before the event. It used to just default to 15mins before the event and you could change the alert easily to something else. Now, when I try to change this strange large number it reverts back to how it started as soon as iCal syncs with google.
This is strange and really annoying. Any ideas?

If I hadn't been using iCal/Google Calendar for over 18 months, with reminders from both systems playing nicely over that period, I'd happily agree with you. The issue with Reminders only began (for me, at least) in February this year. I agree that there's potential for conflict, and maybe both sets of developers finally threw in the towel. This is a pity, because I like both systems, but I feel slightly irritated at being effectively told by Google or Apple that I have to choose sides.

Google calendar syncing to iCal

I have my Gmail calendar synced with iCal, however in Google Calendars you can add "other calendars", in this case I have my school's calendar synched up in my Google Calendar online so I can see all the events on one. Is there a way to add this other calendar client to my iCal? When I go to my google account I can see all the calendars on one calendar, but in iCal it only syncs the events I put in on my Gmail account. Is this possible to do?
Thanks!

I'm not sure this will answer your question, but...
When you write that "your Gmail calendar is synced with iCal," I assume you mean that you have added a CalDAV account in iCal's preferences so that you can read AND write to your Gmail calendar? In that case, in the preferences of that CalDAV account in iCal, you can select "Delegation" and pick the calendars you also want to be displayed in iCal.
Hope this helps

Nokia E52 google calendar sync mail for exchange b...

Since I upgraded my Nokia to the latest firmware, I always get a blank screen after selecting mail for exchange as mail provider (necessary to sync my google calendar with the calendar in the phone). Sync of the calendar worked fine before.

Any ideas?

just got an update yesterday, i can syncronice mail, calendar and contacts (i use hotmail)
before i had to check only contacts and calendar. the mails i had to checked via hotmail aplication. now i can doi all in one.

ICal, Google Calendar, syncing problems and duplicate entries

Hi everyone:
I could use some help. Oy.
At work, we use Google calendar, and that hosts my appointments. I find the Google web-interface impossible, and would like to use iCal to access the data on the Google servers. I have no problem doing that with iOS--my iPhone and iPad manage to sync up fine, and syncing works in both directions; i can add and delete either on Google or on the iOS devices and everything is fine.
But on my desktop machine, I have problems of two sorts. First, once I follow the steps to add a calendar, the syncing seems broken; I can add and delete from the Google web interface, but nothing deleted from the desktop gets passed to Google. Second, I have many duplicate entries that show up on my desktop and some very old appointments that no longer should be on the calendar show up out of no where.
What I'd love to do is a full reboot, eliminating all calendar data everywhere (except on the Google servers, of course, where the work stuff is stored) and start from scratch. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance--
Roger

Have you tried rebooted your Mac? (Not needed often, so we Mac users often forget to try this. ) Are you logged on with an admin account or a standard account? (Or one with Parental Controls enabled.)
Sometimes I'll find the dialog window "behind" my other windows. Try not to click or move your mouse after you click the plus button. Or try moving windows around or minimizing them so that any windows that are hidden behind other windows are then shown. (In fact try closing all apps and Finder windows to reduce the possibility of this issue in the first place.)
(BTW, your question really is separate from the original question, since the OP already has their Google account added to iCal and you are having trouble adding the account. In the future you'll want to start your own thread so that you can also mark posts answered or helpful.)

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.
