Outlook and Blackberry Calendar

I really want an calendar that will sync with my blackberry that I do not have to go online to use. I'm thinking of purchasing Outlook 07 for my laptop. My question is, I realize this is an email program also. I do not have to be online to manage and use the calendar part of the program, right? And outlook does sync with a blackberry (I have 8900)? Thanks for the help.
Edited to correct grammar and now I'm editing because I realize what I've said is confusing. So here is additonal explanation.
I knew I didn't explain that well enough. I know that I can sync with yahoo calendar and google calendar with my blackberry. I want to be able to share info between my device and my computer. I have no problems using google or yahoo calendars on my laptop. They are both excellent calendar programs. The problem is the internet is not really reliable at school and also they have gotten much stricter about which sites we can access and which ones we can't. I've heard that yahoo is now off limits so that means that calendar can't be used at school. That leaves google calendar which is fine just as long as the internet isn't down. There are times when I have my laptop available and not my blackberry so I do want my life on my computer also. If I can't get online on my computer, I'm up a creek. So in essence, do you have to be on the internet on your laptop in order to access the calendar functions in outlook?

Hi Kairo'sgrammy!
Outlook 2007 will sync with your Blackberry just fine. You will have equal calendars on both the PC and the BB.
Two big changes to think about.
1) When syncing with Yahoo or Google online calendars, you have immediate transfer of data. If you updated Google
online calendar, or your Blackberry it would synch automatically, and vice versa.
2) With Outlook the synchronization takes place when you run the desktop manager sync program.
Example. You enter a meeting on the Outlook PC calendar for a 9:00 apt. Later you use your Blackberry
to enter an appointment for an 11:00am meeting. Both appointments are not visible on either calendar
until you run the synchronize program. I usually run it a night after work. All appointments from the PC and
Blackberry calendar are synchronized on both devices, and reflected for the next day.
You synchronize the Outlook calendar and the BB calendar through the default email address on both.
Let me know if this makes sense!
Thanks. Someone on a delphiforum mentioned that you can sync google with outlook so if you are wirelessly synced with google on your blackberry phone, that might work to update outlook. I've got outlook on order and amazon is sending it via pony express, LOL, so I'll be able to figure out more then. Whether it does or doesn't sync wireless is fine with me. Syncing physically and daily works for me. The sync does work well with google and blackberry as far as calendar stuff goes. It won't sync memo stuff or task stuff wirelessly. If I want google to know a task, I put it in the calendar seeing as I schedule most tasks anyway. If I don't, I get too wishy washy about them.

Sync Problem with Outlook and Blackberry Calendars

I am hoping someone has an "easy" solution to this problem.
I am using Desktop Sync (BIS) and synching it to my work Outlook 2007 mailbox.
Normally my calendar entries should sync to the Blackberry calendar associated with my work email address. Somehow, over the course of the past several days, some of my syncing was occuring with the the VZW Blackberry calendar. I didn't catch the problem in time and now I have work calendar entries correctly listed on my Blackberry, but in two different calendars.
I have since lost some of those entries originally created in Outlook. They are on the Blackberry, but on the wrong Calendar. When I sync with Desktop, the work entries on the VZW Calendar are not getting over to Outlook.
So the question is - is there a way to "move" the entries in one BB calendar, over to the other calendar? Thanks.

I would love to know the answer to this problem as well. I had the same problem even when I downgraded back to 5.0. It always worked fine before. Very Frustrating. To get around it clearing out all the settings on my handheld. I just have to click no every time it asks if I want to clear all databases on the phone before sync. It still syncs but doesn't change my settings. Annoying but works until they get this aggravation fixed.

Sync'ing Multiple Calendars in Both Outlook and Blackberry 8330

I have been searching for either an OEM solution or 3rd party application solution for this problem for quite some time with no luck, so I decided to ask the experts here...
I am running an 8330 w/BIS service. I use my Blackberry for personal, work, and a side business. I have my personal emails, my work email (BIS, not BES) and my side business's email addresses configured. As such, I have multiple calendars on my Device and I've color-coded them to my liking.
I am quite mobile, and often need to enter infomation in any of the 3 calendars on the fly. Keeping them color-coded and separate is ideal, since I use the 'select calendar' function on the device to keep everything organized.
The problem lies in syncronizing with Outlook 2007 when I get home... Outlook 2007 will only sync the Default Calendar on my device, which happens to be my personal calendar. I know I can add a second and third calendar in Outlook and configure them to syncronize with my Blackberry but they still will only sync with my Default Calendar on the device. This is not much help when I'm on the road since everything ends up in one lump on my device, and no way to separate...
Google Sync is the same thing. I can add calendars and syncronize, but it all ends up in my Default Calendar as well.
I just can't see myself scrolling thru my many appointments and all-day events to pick out what events belong to what area of my life... I'm baffled that there would be multiple calendars on the device but no way to syncronize them with Outlook. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

Can only be done wired using Desktop Manager.

Trying to successfully sync Outlook and Google calendars

Hi!
I am trying to sync my Outlook calendar and google calendar. I have some meetings that are on my Google calendar that do not show in Outlook. I also have some meetings that show in my Outlook taskbar but do not show up in main calendar but do show up in Calendar - Outlook Data File.
Can anyone help?

Microsoft and Google might be able to but this is nothing to do with Apple products or services.
Try the forums for the 2 companies involved.

Times do not match between outlook and blackberry

This is probably a simple fix, but not being able to find it is frustrating. I enter an appointment into the blackberry, but when syncing, the outlook calendar changes it to one hour earlier than is on the blackberry. The obvious issue of, "are the clocks the same on both devices?"... the answer seems to be yes. The display clock on the computer and on the blackberry are the same. Any troublshooting thoughts? Thanks.

Apple puts Saskatchewan into Central Standard Time, which isn't correct. Then when it syncs to Outlook, Outlook puts the appointment into the CST time zone, instead of the Saskatchewan -6 time zone. The problem is Apple's iCloud sending the wrong information to Outlook.
Need a fix for this please.

Outlook and iPhone Calendar Sync Issue

I’m having an issue where any meeting on my Outlook calendar that is after 3AM and spans multiple days (i.e meeting is from Sunday 4AM to Monday 6PM) it actually shows up on my phone as being Monday-Tuesday instead of Sunday-Monday.
Has anyone else seen this?

We have had this same issue on the older through to the latest os. I dont know whether the issue is the iphone diary or outlook.
We have 2 phones syncing to one outlook account. If I put in an all day event on my iphone when it syncs to outlook it spans 2 days and then when synced back to the phone it honors this, so suddenly I have no idea which day the event is on.

TS3999 Outlook and Icloud calendars : how to set up?

After a prompt from my PC I just installed the Icloud syn on my PC and allowed it to sync my Outlook calendar and contacts.
Instead of duplicating them as I thought they all have been sucked into Icloud. Totally unacceptable!!
Outlook is my work tool - the contacts are my work contacts. I want them in Icloud as well but not exclusively. All my day to day work is in Outlook!!
How do I get it back as it was. URGENT!!!

I don't mind keeping it as a duplicate - but my contacts and calendar have to be in Outlook.
For example, I just scheduled a meeting from an email for this afternoon using the meeting button - it went to Outlook. But it is pretty lonely in there now since all the other meetings are in Icloud.
If icloud works too then even better.

Outlook and iCloud Calendar Syncing

My workplace uses an outlook exchange based email and calendar service, and i have to use this to manage my meetings and whatnot. Is there some way I can sync this with my icloud calendar in order to share it with other icloud users?
3rd Gen iPad, iOS 5.1
Thanks

Hi - I had a look at the article, but that just says that they are not able to work together or sync.
Are there any third party solutions to this?
I just want to be able to see the tasks that I have in my Exchange account sync with Iphone (which is fine), but then also sync with iCloud.com (which I cant do - iCloud cannot see any Exchange related data I think).
Any work arounds?
Thanks
Neil

Synch issues outlook and hotmail calendar

I am linked my hotmail account to outlook - all email and calendar updates can be seen on my outlook. However, when I updated a calendar event on my computer (outlook) this information doesn't sync with my online hotmail calendar.

Hi,
Which version of Outlook are you using?
We may press Ctrl + 6 to switch to Folders view and then check the
Sync Issues folder. Check if you can see any information regarding Calendar synchronization in the Synchronization log.
In addition, if the Outlook data file is corrupt, this issue may also happen. We may try to find the ost file and rename it to .old and then restart Outlook to re-sync a new one to see the result. By default, we can find the OST file under:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook
Hope this helps.

Steve Fan

ICal, MS Outlook, and Titles in published calendars

I need to publish my calendar, and would like to use iCal to do it. However, I only need the equivalent of free/busy information to show (I don't want to show any other information about events). I thought that unchecking "Publish Titles and Notes" would accomplish this, but when I subscribe to the calendar using Outlook (as some of my subscribers will), I can see the event title.
Is there any way to fix this?

I am also looking for a way to publish my iCal calendars, but only show the times as "busy" and not show any specific proprietary data. MS Outlook and Google Calendar have this functionality worked out, just curious if there is a way to do this on .MAC.

Blackberry Calendar to Droid X

I have a disabled Blacberry Bold, but I would like to transfer my calendar to my working Droid X. Does anyone know how?

The easiest work around to this is to sync up your blackberry and outlook calendars and then sync your google calendar with outlook using google sync app. With outlook and google calendar syncing you now have your phone updating google calendar, google calendar updating outlook....so on so forht with outlook updating google calendar which then updates your phone.

How can I display my MS Outlook/Exchange 2010 Calendar events on my web application's calendar?

I'm building a web (client) application (built in html/JavaScript/jQuery) that has a built-in calendar. I would like to pull in my Outlook/Exchange Calendar events
and display them in my web application's calendar. What is the best way to do that from a JavaScript/jQuery environment? I've been searching all over for plugins or examples of how to talk to Exchange/Outlook and retrieve Calendar events but I haven't found
a solution yet. We are currently using MS Office/Outlook/Exchange 2010. I don't need to modify the calendar events, just read them. (Note that I can't use an OWA Web Parts link
to display the calendar in an iframe; I need to have access to the actual event data so I can include other UI elements that I need for my application.) Thanks
in advance for the help!

Hi,
There's an old Java API for EWS, and you can access EWS with direct soap request to retrieve the data you want.

Failure to sync contacts and calendar from Outlook through BlackBerry Link after update

Hi everyone,
I have both z10 and z30. I have been syncronizing my Outlook contacts and calendars to both of them through Blackberry Link. My z10 automatically updated several days ago and I lost everythiing on the phone including contacts, calendar, texts, phots, etc. And then the same thing happend to my z30...
Now I am trying to sync my Outlook contacts and calendars to them through Blackberry Link as I always did but it turned out unsuccessful. It stops at 'Getting status from Blackberry calendar' and it also pops out a message saying 'BLACKBERRY-7D1B Sync was unsuccessful. An error has occurred during an attempt to access to device data.'
I already tried to reinstall Blackberry Link and reset my phones but neither of these worked out.
Please help. Thank you!

This is exactly what I am dealing with. Blackberry Link will work great for awhile and then something happens and I can not sync my contacts. I have spent many hours and days trying to fix this to no avail. BB support has been great but I still go through a long process each time. This week I finally gave up and started using the Microsoft Hotmail Outlook Connector since my company does not offer Active Sync or Exchange. It works flawlessly. I would dedfinitely check it out. If you swith to a Widows Phone or Android this is one of the options they recommend you use.
In a nutshell Link is awful and BB should be ashamed of the product they put on the market. I will only use it for syncing pictures and documents. Good luck!

Blackberry calendar not synching with Outlook

Hi guys,
We did 2 upgrades and now some black calendar are not synching naymore with outlook.
Here's our setting
We had Blackberry Enterprise server professionnal 4.0.17 or something like that we upgraded to Blackberry server Express 5.0.3 MR 1 (Bundle 19) for Exchange server
we had Microsoft Exchange 2003 and we upgraded to 2010
Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Version 14.1.218.15 with service pack installed Update Rollup 5 SP1 and Update Rollup 4-V2 SP1
The issue is with some Blackberry device when you add something to the Black Calendar it's not showing up into Outlook calendar.
I tried to removed every cical ligne into the services book and resend the service book from the blackberry server, had no luck
I tried these steps :
On the BlackBerry smartphone, open the Calendar application.
Click the Menu button and click Options.
Set the Wireless Synchronization option to No.
Click the Menu button and click Save.
Set the Wireless Synchronization option to Yes.
Click the Menu button and click Save. Turning wireless calendar synchronization on and off will reset the calendar database on the BlackBerry smartphone.
Create a calendar entry in Microsoft Outlook and verify that the entry wirelessly synchronizes to the BlackBerry smartphone.
no luck too..
I don't know where to look at now have you any hint or clues

Hello guys,
here's some new information I tried / double checked...
I make sure that Options > Advanced Options > Default Service > is set to Desktop no facebook or something else configured on the device
I'm thinking of doing this.
we can try a forced reload. Before proceeding you need to be
aware that these steps will erase the device calendar and load a fresh copy from the server. On the device open the Calendar > press menu > Select Options >
Type RSET (nothing will appear as you type) > Then when prompted select Yes to erase the device Calendar and load a fresh copy from the server.
this would really be my last option because our employees that are having the synch issue had added some important stuff into their calendar related to their job and this information is only available on the blackberry calendar...
thanks for any advice you have about this issue.
