Ovi Calendar issues

Anyone else having these problems (on an N8) and found resolutions?:
When clocks went forward several of my appointments were duplicated and I''m struggling to delete some of these.
Items created on web interface don't sync to phone
Still can't delete items via web interface that have areminder in the past - need to remove reminder then delete - painfull.
Notes created / edited on web interface don't syn'c till some time later like on the second sync, and then gets duplicated and again hard to delete.
These seem to be recurring issues that go away and return
i've been a long term fan of Ovi calendars and note sync, but I need to consider replacement capability as this getting ridiculous.

And another problems:
When refreshing page:
Sorry, we couldn't retrieve your devices information. Please try again.
When trying to send device configuration via email:
Sorry, we couldn't provision your device. Please try again.
Guys, quality of OVI is extremely low. Is it alpha or beta version ?

  • Ovi calendars syncing issue

    Hi, I started using a new feature to share calendars with friends in Ovi suite, but I encountered one problem. When syncing Ovi calendar with phone, all events from all my friends' calendars will transfer to my phone, which is not good. The phone does not have the ability to switch between multiple calendars, so my events are mixed up with the events of friends. Can I solve this somehow? It would be great to add an option to synchronize just my own (default) calendar.

    Should not give any trouble..
    I personally never had any problems with any updates till now... Not with OVI suite.. Not with firmware update.. Not with Maps update...  touch wood...
    so.. its your choice whether to take the risk (as you have encountered problem in the past..) but you can't get better without taking them too...

  • Ovi Calendar server back end lost shared calendar ...

    Setup a shared calendar between the Ovi web suite, and two devices, a C5 and an N8
    Day 1 - Syncing fine between web and phones
    Day 2 - Go into web page, now the calendar is shared with 0 others! Each phone also has a separate calendar. No configuration changes were made between days 1 and 2
    It seems this to be a major bug in the Ovi Calendar suite? Is the Calendar service now deprecated and shutting down? The Calendar web page looks and feels like it's not being actively updated and supported

    Thanks so much for your comment ~morgen.
    Sorry, I should have mentioned, that it what my first thought so I tested by ensuring the email address associated with the user account (not hosted on the server but by Google Apps) is recieving all other mail.
    I have also tried:
    - Setting all accounts (calendar, email and contact card with associated email address) in another local user on a defferent Mac. So it's not a local user or Mail app issue.
    - Sending invites from different Calendar apps and email accounts - iCloud, Gmail (both using Apple Calendar and the web interface).
    That's why I came back around to thinking it must be calendar server related. However is there is absolutly no conntact with the server with incoming email invites I must be looking in the wrong place (and the wrong forum - sorry!).
    Does anyone have any ideas where I should be focusing my efforts?
    Many thanks in advance.

  • Ovi Calendar CSV import bug

    Hi
    I've got problems importing a .csv file to the calendar. I have a calendar exported from Outlook with ~200 entries. I can import them with ease, no errors here. However when I look at the imported entries, they all show up on the same day. All 200 of them. And the time on them is the same as the time I tried to import them.
    I also tried with some less entries with same results.
    Anyone know a solution?

    Seems like I have to live in US to use it - it was date format that caused this issue.
    Fixing it was easy. Change your location information from Windows Control panel to English (US), export your calendar from outlook - and change back your settings. Now import the csv to Ovi calendar. Oh btw, you might have to adjust the times also, it somehow imagined I live in GMT-time zone, so I had to adjust all my appointments by two hours.
    Easy to use...

  • New OVI Calendar web application syncronization is...

    Hi @ll,
    I don't know about you, but I can't sync calendar events back & forth since last week (when Ovi Calendar 1.6 went from beta to live).
    No errors reported by the phone ovi sync app. It's just no calendar appointments being sent (contacts is working though).
    I've even master-resetted my X6.. no way.
    Are you experiencing the same? As a long-time Nokia supporter, I MUST think this is not a general issue in such an essential feature.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just for the record, I have the exact same issue on my phone. Syncing from server to phone fails without any error message. (Phone to server is ok.) At least good to see that it's a server issue and not a problem with my phone...
    What is it with these seemingly trivial calendar bugs that service providers aren't able to fix??? I wanted to use Google calendar's web interface on my previous phone, but it has a bug which prevents users from setting up reminders of any kind (I was hoping to have e-mail reminders mailed to my phone). This bug, which basically renders the interface totally unusable, has been around for a long time now, but Google apparently doesn't want to fix it. 
    I seriously don't hope we have to wait that long for a fix from Nokia. Without proper calendar synchronization I basically don't have any good reason to continue to use the phone.

  • Outlook Sync (Contacts/Calendar) Issues - Progress today........

    Folks,
    I posted another earlier discussion on this topic over the weekend, but since I got my iPhone on Friday, I have probably burned about 20 hours working trying to figure out why I cannot sync my calendar and contacts from Office 2003 "OR" 2007 into my iPhone. When I started this process, 584 of my 1310 contacts did sync, I had NO luck on getting any of calendar items to sync.
    Today we resolved the Contact issue!!! Still working on the calendar issues and if anyone has any further ideas, I am open to it, but it appears for both the contacts and calendar issues, I had corrupt data. You dont know it until encounter it this way.
    Here is what you need to do in order to get the contacts to sync, it worked for me, hopefully it will work for many after me:
    1. Export "ALL" of your contacts to a .CSV (Comma Separated Value for Windows) file. Just export them to your desktop or somewhere easy to find them. As an extra safety net to ensure you dont lose your contacts, back them up also to a .XLS file as well as a .PST file.
    2. Delete "ALL" your contacts out of Outlook. Sync Outlook, especially if your like me and have your contacts and calendar on a corporate exchange server. Be sure you clear your iPhone so there is no contacts on it.
    3. Import the .CSV file to a VCARD file, sync to your coporate server, sync your iTunes and you should now see all your contacts.
    Again, it worked for me and hopefully it works for you.
    Good Luck!!

    Everyone is waiting for this.
    Right now you cannot sync locally between your phone and your desktop. You are forced to upload your contacts to another company's server (read "the cloud") and then download them from whatever device you didn't upload them from.
    Still waiting for this fix please.

  • Any way start over from scratch to fix iCloud calendar issues in Outlook 2010?

    I'm suddenly having perplexing iCloud calendar issues in Outlook.  Forget the hundreds and hundreds of duplicate entries for birthdays and holidays, and the thousands of duplicate contacts - I've just been manually deleting them from Outlook.  I also tried manually deleted iCloud files from iCloud on outlook, but this does not seem to affect what is on iCloud itself.  I've now got an issue where if I add an appointment on my iPhone, it appears on Icloud but not in Outlook 2010 even though the iPhone calendar is displayed in Outlook. iPad appointments show up on iPhone, iCloud and Outlook.  iCloud entered appointments show up on iPhone, and iPad and Outlook.  Of course it is maddening that there is a separate calendar for each (there is only one of me, so why a separate calendar in Outlook  for every source is beyond me).  How can I get my iPhone to start showing up again in Outlook?  Another issue is that now every time I click on calendar in Outlook, it takes 2-3 minutes to display the calendar because iCloud seems to be syncing. I'm assuming this is because there a so many duplicates.  I've removed Icloud from Outlook. Ran a repair on Outlook.  Uninstalled iCloud. Reinstalled.  Re-added to outlook., but the issue is never fixed.  I'm considering make a brand new Apple ID and abandoning my current one, but that means I have to change my iPad, iCloud, iPhone, family iPhones, Outlook, readd credit card, reload all of the data.  That's a pain.  I sure would be nice to have a simple way of editing the iCloud data and adding devices (and having a more descriptive source name would be even better).

    I found sync options under "info"
    I was looking to sync the information from the phone back into outlook, It looks like these options will sync what is on outlook into the phone.. 
    I wanted to export from the phone (which has all of the old appointments and updated contacts) , back into outlook
    Any other thoughts?
    Thanks

  • Bug in OVI calendar (web)

     Hello
    I've found bug in OVI calendar (web).
    When I change date of events (Edit all event occurrences), or name of events, the date of changed event is not a valid date
    Ex.
    I have event: EXAMLE, 22-10-2009 (How often will it happen? - WEEKLY). Next, I changing date 21-10-2009 and... The date of events it is finally 23-10-2009.
    BTW: In google calendar it is OK.

    Both bugs still exist.
    When I create an all day event, initially it shows as a full day event for the correct day. When I check back later, the event is shown as full day for two days. Synced to the phone (N8) the events are displayed correctly.
    I am also unable to edit e.g. birthdays that started in 1980's. I get a message saying I need to edit the first instance.

  • Calendar issues - bugs or do I misunderstand how it should work?

    I'm having a few calendar issues that seem like bugs. I have the latest release installed but I don't remember seeing these problems before updating. I could be wrong though - my memory ain't what it used to be.
    On the calendar week view, if I swipe to scroll down to see the afternoon, I can't swipe back up again. I have to swipe left or right to view a different week before it'll let me view the morning.
    Also, if I go to the month view and open a particular day with an event. If I then swipe on the bottom to go backwards, it shrinks the card and lets me choose another open app (home view?). Instead I would have expected it to return to the previous screen?
    Another problem; I had to tap an event in the week view about five times before it opened the day view. Poor detection?
    Do these sound like bugs? I've only had my Pre for a few days so I'm still learning. Thanks

    Hello and welcome to the forums;
    Going back and forth between morning and afternoon is working fine for me, how many calendars do you have and what kind are they (yahoo, gmail, etc)?
    Going to month view, then tapping on a day and using the back gesture does put you into card mode, because you have not entered a new level of menu, just a different view. If you were to go into a specific event, then you could back gesture to the previous view, but going between day/week/month is accomplished only with the selection buttons at the bottom of the screen.
    Instead of trying to tap a particular event from week view, have you tried just tapping on the date at the top? or somewhere else on the column for that particular day? Do you see the "ripple" on the screen showing that it recognized a screen tap?
    Hope this helps,

  • Bug: Ovi Calendar and pre-1975 events

    I was quite puzzled to discover the hard way that OVI Calendar does not support events dated before 1/1/1975. Apparently not  all developers learned from the Y2K bug.
    Why do I need events in the past, you may ask. Well, to store birthdays/years.I have stored birthdays of my contacts as yearly repeated events in Outlook, starting from the day of birth. That's handy to remember their age. I first synchronised them with my phone (Nokia 5800) and everything went right. When I synchronised them with OVI, all events scheduled before 1975 got moved to December 2010 or January 2011 (day of month was preserved, though).
    This is a bug and users should be warned/informed.

    If I set MD-Soft Birthdays to create memo events rather than anniversary events for my contacts' birthdays, one-time-only memos are created for the current and next year and at least they are not moved to december.
    However, another strange behaviour/bug happens when syncing: the synced memo events appear in the online OVI calendar one day earlier, i.e. a memo scheduled in the device's calendar on 25 August (because that's the birthday date) will appear on OVI calendar on the 24 August. The memo is then not further synced with the calendar, i.e. if I delete the 25 Aug memo from the device's calendar, the corresponding (wrong) 24 Aug memo is not deleted from OVI and, vice versa, the 24 Aug memo is not synced back to device's calendar even if it appears in OVI.  Further, the wrong 24 Aug memo is then treated as an independent entry and synced back to the device.
    That's annoying, because besides not working, now I have to remove all those wrong events! Luckily, Birthdays allows to search and remove all events starting with '[B]' (not only those it created itself), which also takes care of the wrong memos that got synced back. Otherwise, since OVI Calendar does not allow to search for strings shorter than 4 characters [DOH!], I would have needed to delete them manually!

  • Ovi Calendar dates off

    When I Sync my phone with Ovi, calendar items show one day ahead on the Ovi website. (Ex: An event on 2nd Apr is shown as 1st Apr, and an event on 1st Apr is shown as 30th Apr) It's very annoying. The events show perfectly on the phone. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
    I have the same timezone and 12hr format both on PC and phone.

    I have same problem. I have identified it as following: Create a new "anniversary" entry on calendar on N97. Sync to OVI calendar online. Entry in OVI calendar is created as an "all-day-event" box ticked for the correct day but also wrongly has a "start time" of 01:00 (which is greyed out)!! This makes it roll-over onto the following day. Sync then sometimes seems to shufflye this "Anniversary" forward by one day. Is is all to do with the incorrect creation of the Calendar entry on OVI calendar when the item is first sync'ed. The solution it to either create an "all-day" entry on OVI calendar and THEN sync to phone OR untick and then tick the "all-day" check box which blanks the "at" time box for the event.

    I appreciate the help !

    Harvey,
    The "On My Mac" calendars will not sync, and in my experience are no longer required. They can be safely deleted after making backup copies.

  • Calendar Issues - "Repitition is not working for the item you tried to access"

    I ran into an interesting error when troubleshooting a calendar issue today, wondering if anyone has seen it.
    Exchange 2010 SP2 latest RU, Outlook 2010
    User changes then start time for a recurring meeting, changes in everybody's calendar but hers 9still shows in her calednar as the original start time)
    Logged into OWA to see if her claendar reflected the correct start time there - no, still  shows the old start time.  So I open the meeting, have a quick look, and the following error pops up:
    "Repitition is not working for the item you tried to access.  It's possible either the start or end date are not correct"
    Has anyone seen this error in OWA before?
    TAG

    Hi,
    Please double check whether the updated start time and end time are changed properly in attendees’ calendar. Also confirm whether the updating message is in the organizer’s sent items both in OWA and Outlook.

  • "Fake event to work around calendar issue"

    I've got a Samsung Stratosphere running Android 2.3. When I search in the Calendar app for an event, it always first briefly shows a list of all events, then shows the search results. Inevitably, at the top of the list of all events is one that says, "Fake event to work around calendar issue." It is set on 01/01/1975 from 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM, with no repeats and no alarm. When I go to that date on the calendar on the phone, there it is, listed on the calendar linked to my e-mail account; but when I check my online Google Calendar, there is no such event on that or any other date on any calendar.
    There seems to be no harm in leaving it there, and I wonder if there'd be any harm in deleting it. A quick Google search showed that this is an event that shows up on many Android phones synced to Google Calendar, sometimes with repeats or alarms. (For example: https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/607134#607134; http://forums.androidcentral.com/motorola-droid-x/45510-problems-google-calendar-fake-event-work-around-calendar-issue.html.)
    Has anyone else here experienced this? Has anyone successfully deleted it?

    My little Google search showed it occurring for at least a couple of years now across a spectrum of Android devices from various manufacturers. Which suggests that somehow the big G is responsible for whatever it is. The version history for a 3rd-party calendar app maker suggests that this "bizarre event ... that Google Calendar puts in at times" might be "Bug? Google programmer forgot to remove debug code? Weird kludge by Google Programmers?": http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/PimlicalAndroidVersionAndSlipstreamHistory.htm (scroll down to the bottom). Frankly, striding forward to conquer the world while never getting around to fixing rubbish from years ago seems like Google's M.O. these days.
