How to sync bb/outlook/gmail contacts and calendar

i have a bb 9530 and outlook 2007 running on a 64-bit windows 7 pc.  i use outlook to view my gmail.  i also have the bb gmail app on my phone and that keeps email in sync between gmail servers and the phone as well as outlook since it is setup for an imap account.  so that's all good.
the problem is that i need to know the best way to keep my contacts and calendar in sync as well.  since i can't "imap" my gmail contacts and calendar, there are 3 different locations to sync for those.
also, the gmail sync app for outlook has alot of problems on windows 7 and 64-bit vista or 7 so that didn't work either.
any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks...  dave

I have the same problem.  Did you learn how to solve this?

  • Any ideas for how to sync to Exchange 2003 - contacts and calendar

    Hi
    I am still searching for a mechanism to give me the sync solution I want, which is as follows:
    At work I have a PC running Outlook 2003 via an Exchange Server 2003 setup.
    At home I have an iMac running Snow Leopard
    In the middle I have an iPhone 3G
    I want to sync Calendar and Contacts across all three machines.
    I want to sync work email between the Exchange server and the iphone, but do NOT need this to sync on my iMac at home
    That's it.
    At the moment I can sync email, calendars and contacts successfully between the Exchange server and iPhone, using the over-the-air Exchange Sync on the iPhone. But sadly my iMac will not sync contacts and calendars to the exchange server 2003 as Snow Leopard only supports exchange 2007.
    Ironically (because I don't need this bit to work) I have managed to get my iMac to sync with my Exchange server EMAIL, by selecting the Exchange IMAP option when setting up the mail account on my iMac (as opposed to the Exchange 2007 option). However, I cannot get iCal or Address book to sync with Exchange 2003, regardless of the options I select when setting up the new accounts in Address book or iCal. I guess these just do not work with Exchange 2003
    I know that I cannot use mobileme as a solution, as you cannot have two over-the-air syncs going on, and I need to maintain my iphone link to the exchange server via activesync
    I also know that using itunes to sync via the cable will not work, as this creates separate contacts and calendar files on the iphone and so does not provide the syncing solution I seek.
    I have tried using google to act as the middle man between my iMac and Exchange server data - getting the iMac to sync to Google Calandar and Google Address Book, and then using a third party piece of software called gsyncit to sync from google to the .ost outlook file on my PC workstation. This works some of the time, but keeps crashing and leaving me with multiple duplicates to have to sort out - much too much hard work on a regular basis.
    So I still do not have a solution. Unfortunately upgrading to Exchange server 2007 is not a solution.....
    Any new ideas out there
    Thanks

    I don't think there will be a solution to this. Exchange 2003 just isn't supported.

    Click on your iPhone in iTunes, and check under the Info section where you can choose which app to sync with. Is Windows Live Mail an option?

  • Syncing Outlook 2010 contacts and calendar

    I've read the many entries on this topic, but can't find exactly what I need.  I have Outlook 2010 with Windows 7 on my computer.
    I've found the sections about contacts and calendars in iTunes.  It will only let me enter "Windows Contacts" -- a choice of theirs.  For calendars, it says no supported calendars are located.  I can't enter anything in the box to tell it to find Outlook.
    What do I do?

    Same problem here. I finally went at it app by app. If you turn contacts off, then you can get the calendar to synch. If you turn on calendar and contacts, then they BOTH lock up and won't synch.
    The problem seems to be in the contacts app. Synch your contacts with iTunes once, and then turn off contacts in icluod. This should work.

  • Gmail contacts and calendars disappear

    My Gmail account is synced but at least once a day all of my contacts and calendars disappear. This happens with Exchange and Gmail. If I do a shutdown cycle holding home and power, then immediately sync they sometimes come back. How do I get them to stop deleting and get them back? In the mean time is there an easier way to get them back for when I don't have my laptop with me?

    When you enable Icloud on the Ipad they should upload to the server. And then when you setup icloud on the computer with outlook they will download and update outlook.

  • How does manual fetching of google contacts and calendar work?

    In an effort to possibly save some battery life and/or just use the product as intended I would like to know how this works exactly.    At this point I only have two email accounts I use.  Yahoo and GMail, with GMail being my primary account.  Gmail is the only calendar option I use as well.
    I don't add contacts often, nor do I make tons of calendar entrys every day.  So when I look into the settings for mail, contacts and calendar, then fetch new data (which shows push as on, which I want) and then advanced, the only two things listed on the fetch schedule are google calendar and google contacts.  iCloud and Yahoo mail are listed as push.
    So can I set the fetch schedule to manual as opposed to hourly (the longest setting) due to the fact that I am not in constant need or hourly need really of updates to either?  Or will calendar notifications fail to show up on time and all my contacts disappear or something?
    Battery life or not, if I could have both be "push" I would, as it seems counterintuitive not to, but so does manually looking out every hour for changes to something that likely hasn't changed.

    Going to reply to myself on this one, I tryed switching everything to manual fetch today, and at least with respect to contacts, it appears to only go out and sync when the contacts are opening (ie I saw the spinning wheel and watched a contact I had made while in airplane mode on the phone show up online).  So I think that it would work the same for calendar entrys.

  • How can I add my icloud contacts and calendar back to my iphone?

    As of last week, my iCloud contacts and calendar disappeared from my iPhone 4S. I was trying to do something with adding Outlook to my PC to access calendars for my children's school, and now I cannot get my iCloud contacts as a group (tried turning setting off then back on in Settings) and my iCloud calendar doesn't show up (tried turning this off then back on in Settings also - won't add it back) on my iPhone (iCloud account is intact on PC). It's as if iCloud isn't even an option any longer. PLEASE HELP!!

    Hello sstoller,
    It sounds like you now have no iCloud Contacts or Calendar information on your iPhone.
    There are articles for each I'd recommend checking out.
    Get help using iCloud Contacts

    They both have troubleshooting sections to step through.

  • How can I sync outlook 2003 contacts and calendars to icloud?

    I know there is a tool for Outlook 2007 and later, but are there any solutions planned for Outlook 2003??
    I am not on an Exchange server.

    You are not alone - it took me two weeks to work out why I could no longer sync my ihpone to my PC and realised it was because Outlook 2003 is not supported.  Outlook 2010 will cost me c£100 - I've already spend a fortune on my iphone and new ipad - why on earth do I have to buy a piece of software I do not need in order to be able to sync my calendar wirelessly?  It is incredibly annoying.  I have tried to sync Outlook 2003 with Google Calendar first - but it just hangs.
    You do need new software, yours won't work, a fact that was available to you when you chose iCloud.

  • How do I reload all my contacts and calendar items from Outlook to my iPhone

    My iPhone has somehow gotten out of sync with my Outlook calendars and contacts.  It happened when I upgraded to Outlook 2013.  The syncing appears to be working since the last iCloud update to v2.1 but a bunch of stuff that didn't sync when iCloud and Outlook 2013 weren't talking has not synced now that they are.  I think if I could just clear out iCloud, which does match my iPhone, and resync my iPhone, then the iCloud would pick up what is on my phone and everything would match again.
    I would not like to do a factory reset because of the other data that would be lost.
    Thanks,
    Froggie

    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn off Contacts and PhotoStream. Note that will off yo will not be able to add contacts on that iPod.. Also note that with Calendar and Notes are on those items will sync between the two devices.

  • How I migrated my caldav data (Contacts and Calendars) to Mavericks + Server

    Hello,
    I write this post to share with you the steps I had to take for correctly migrating my caldav database (containing data for Addressbook and Calendar Server) from a Lion Server to Mavericks with Server version 3.
    The problem occured like this : after downloading and installing mavericks (from the Apple Store), and downloading/installing the Server Utility (version 3), everything migrated just fine, except I had an error message during the first launch of the Server utility, but since it eventually launched, and the services were running, I didn't notice anything at first.
    But I rapidly saw a big problem : my caldav data was missing. If a client connected to their calendar application, they would get (after syncing with the server) a new empty calendar named "calendar" (this is typical of a fresh empty caldav database). Same for addressbook clients (empty contacts).
    So I searched and read several post that helped me greatly :
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3890595
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/23581552
    BUT, what is different in mavericks, is this :
    The postgres cluster that hosts the caldav data seems to have move (again!), and this is by exploring several config files that I figured which was the right socket to use to connect to the good postgres cluster.
    The clues were in the file : /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/private/etc/caldavd/caldavd-apple.p list
    Where I found the precious parameter (under the Postgres section) :
    <key>SocketDirectory</key>
           <string>/var/run/caldavd/PostgresSocket</string>
    What I also figured is that the user account to use for connecting to this postgres cluster is caldav, and not _postgres.
    So here are basically the steps I had to take  to reinstall my old database.
    Step #0 :
    First, you need to locate the dump of the old postgres database, I found that the migration process seemed to make a dump inside :
    This method ONLY WORKS if you have the following file :
    /Library/Server/Migrated/Library/Server/PostgreSQL/Backup/dumpall.psql.gz
    If you have that file, you can extract it with the command :
      gunzip /Library/Server/Migrated/Library/Server/PostgreSQL/Backup/dumpall.psql.gz
    For the rest of the steps I assume this file is named  /path/to/your/dump.psql
    I think (but I'm not sure of it) that THIS precise dump is different than what you would get inside a manual dump, meaning that in this dump you have all the  databases of the cluster. Again I'm not sure, but that's what I think since there are CREATE DATABASE instructions inside it).
    If you don't have that file, perhaps you made a dump by hand.
    If that's the case, I think that before Step #3 you will have to create an empty caldav database, BUT, I'm not sure the command "calendarserver_bootstrap_database -v" mentionned here will create the caldav in the right cluster (read above). Perhaps we could figured out together if that's your case.
    Step #1 : stop the services
    sudo serveradmin stop addressbook
    sudo serveradmin stop calendar
    Step #2 : drop the caldav database
    sudo dropdb -h /var/run/caldavd/PostgresSocket -U caldav caldav
    If you get this error message :
    dropdb: database removal failed: ERROR:  database "caldav" is being accessed by other users
    DETAIL:  There is 1 other session using the database.
    then go to Step #2a, otherwise, go straight to Step #3
    Step #2a : only if Step 2 didn't work, see above ! (taken from here)
    # Connect to the postgres database
    psql -h /var/run/caldavd/PostgresSocket -U caldav
    # Terminate the current sessions
    postgres=> select pg_terminate_backend(procpid) from pg_stat_activity where datname='caldav';
    # Exit postgres
                   postgres=> \q
    Step #3 : if your database dump is not from /Library/Server/Migrated/Library/Server/PostgreSQL/Backup/dumpall.psql.gz, then PERHAPS you will have to create manually an empty caldav database (see Step #0)
    Step #4 : create the new database from the dump
    sudo psql -h /var/run/caldavd/PostgresSocket -U caldav -f </path/to/your/dump.psql> caldav
    A lot of things should be displayed, and I eventually got an error at the end :
    psql:DataDump.sql:49844: \connect: FATAL:  database "collab" does not exist
    But in my case that didn't affect my migration.
    Step #5 : restart services
    sudo serveradmin start calendar
    sudo serveradmin start addressbook
    I hope that helps you.
    Cheers

    iCloud adds a new (additional) Address book to Outlook, it contains the iCloud contacts, if the iCloud contacts and the Outlook contacts are the same there will be duplicates:
    Look in one Contact Folder only
    Delete the Outlook Contacts (you can't delete the whole folder, only the contents
    These are your choices.

  • My iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4 not synchronizing with Outlook 2010 contacts and calendar after upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4.62

    For a couple of years past, my iphone 4 has been working with itunes and syncing with Outlook using USB for contacts and schedule. It currently uses ios 7.0.4. Recently, I think after updating itunes to 11.1.4.62, the sync is not working properly. The itunes backs uo the iphone, starts the sync of contacts which just goes on and on for hours. Asking itunes to sync only calendar also produces no results. I am very concerned as I have a very large >2000 contact list.
    I tried a soft reset of the iphone; resetting sync history in itunes; going back to an earlier version of itunes. switching off icloud in the iphone settings; trying to sync through WiFi. Nothing seems to help. The same difficulty persists.
    Can anyone please give me a workable solution, before my contact lists in Outlook and iphone diverge disastrously?

    Hi - i tried the things in the link in your post and still can't see the iPhone4 in iTunes.
    I did see the iPhone4 in iTunes PRIOR to upgrading to iTunes 11.1.4.
    My Windows 8.1 laptop recognizes the iPhone4 as a device and the iPhone4 recognizes the laptop because it asks whether to 'trust this pc' or not. I click the 'trust pc'. I stopeed the Apple Mobile Services program and restarted it ... and the iPhone4 still does not show up in iTunes.
    What's next? uninstall iTunes & all Apple programs and re-install them?
    Cheers ... John

  • Syncing Blackberry with ACT contacts and Calendar and Email through BES

    I have had the hardest time setting up a blackberry for a user. It is the storm or bold 9800
    we purchased companionlink and I was able to get the BES configured so it doesn't sync the calendar or contacts just email. On the Companionlink I have had issues were it doesn't sync the calendar or duplicates in the blackberry.
    I have talked with support at companionlink and they tell me to select wipe the data on the BB and resync, that process takes forever. So my only option is to wipe everything clean and get one good sync but I can keep doing this for the user everytime.
    IS there any troubleshooting methods I can use right now to get rid of the duplicates in the phone?
    Or another program worth trying out?

    There are two options that I know of.
    First, you can try bluetooth syncing so you don't have to plug the BB in http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB04132&sliceId=SAL_Pub...
    Second, and the one I use, is the Google Desktop sync. http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955 This will only sync calendar; not contacts. I sync 1-way from my Outlook to Google Calendar then use the normal Google Sync to get it all on my Blackberry.
