Syncing Gmail Calendar and Yahoo Mail

I'm thinking of getting an iPhone. Is it possible to sync my Gmail calendar and both my Yahoo and Gmail mailbox?mail

Yes.
You can access a Gmail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail application which provides for Push access with received messages and syncing Gmail contacts and calendar events over the air.
Yahoo supports accessing a Yahoo account as an IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail application but Yahoo doesn't support IMAP account access with an email client on your computer. You can access a Yahoo account as an IMAP or POP account with the iPhone's Mail application.
You can access both accounts at the same time.

Can't add/sync gmail calendar account

I've had my Palm Pre for 7 months and have always synced it with my gmail calendar. Recently my phone would daily tell me my gmail password was incorrect and when I reentered it the phone would still say it's incorrect (the password works online though). I tried to delete the account and re-add it, but now it tells me the email or password are incorrect and won't add it.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Have you done a restart on the Pre recently? Also is the Google calendar off your device now?(Sorry I didn't understand that part and just want to know if you added it or not).

Can't sync gmail calendar on iPad

I have been using an iPhone and iPad2 and syncing my google email and calendar without problem. A few days ago, I changed my gmail password. Now, both the iPhone and iPad sync the email, and the iPhone syncs the calendar but the iPad does not sync the calendar. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the iPad to sync calendars?

I had a similiar problem, with my multiple devices. I open iTunes and when all devices were connected I went to the info section on each device. Under info I checked the sync calandars. Under that I click all calanders. I then did the apply in low right. I then did the sync function and it fixed it for me. You have to do this for each device.
I also checked the device (ipad,Iphone) themselves and change the calander selection to NO Catagory. Hope this helps.

9320 - how to sync gmail contacts only, not email

Hi there,
I'm looking for a way to sync my Gmail contacts with my BB, but without having to sync my emails from that account as well.
The reason is that I use my BB for professional email only and want to keep my personal email out of it. The device is far from user friendly when you get several emails per day on both accounts. Besides, I already sync my personal email with another device, so I don't want to do the same work twice.
I'm also really happy with the way Google syncs my contacts, keeps them backed up, easily sorted, etc. As for my BB, my contacts are on the device and nowhere else, meaning they are easy to lose (as happened to me a couple of months ago when my device died and technical support couldn't bring it back to life and had to replace it). And I don't mind to have the contacts all mixed up, they're easy to find in both devices so it's fine.
Anyway, I hope anyone can help me.
Best regards!

No need to export your address book to your computer as suggested above ...
If you have iOS 7, all you need to do is set up your Gmail account (Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars) and your Google contacts will sync directly to your iPhone's Contacts app. Simple, no fuss, and changes you make on either end are updated periodically through the day.
Note that you don't have to use the Mail app for your mail if you prefer to use the Gmail app, you can choose to just sync your Google contacts with the iOS setting above if you prefer.

Iphone syncs Entourage calendar but not email

I have a mac at home, but use a pc at work that has an Exchanger Server for Outlook.
I set-up my Entourage last week on my mac at home and was able to access and sync properly with the exchange server at work. It's awesome to have my mail and calendar on my mac so I don't have to logout and back in on my windows partition of my MacBook Pro.
HOWEVER, now that I am trying to sync Entourage with my iphone, it only grabs the calendar info but no emails. I have all the boxes checked under sync services.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

You might be able to isolate this. You say at least 75 out of 100 copy over?
If you could scan your iPhone, Kind of Jot down who got sent over, And who did not. And you might have a possible corrupt contact. If you can narrow that one contact down it possibly will resume to sync the rest.
But a couple other things could be going on. Do you have some of your contacts like in a group? or smart group? Smart groups will not Sync over to the iPhone.
You can also launch address book. Go to File - Export - Address Book Archive and save it to your desktop.
Then double click on the file you saved and say replace all. And Sync again.
Or Delete all the contacts and Groups, Then double click on the archived file you saved, and again choose Replace all. This will write all contacts back into Address Book, And try syncing again.
You can also launch iSync in Applications, Go to iSync Preferences, and Reset Sync History and Sync again and also test Syncing in different USB Ports.
Hope something here helps out.

How can I remove Gmail calendar entry "Enjoy wireless life. Charge notebook." that repeats throughout the year?

I assume it will also show on my iPhone5 and iPad2 once AppleCare tells me how to sync Gmail Calendars. For now, it's just on my PC.

Can't sync calendar for work email hosted by gmail

Good mornign everyone
I know there has been a few posts here and there about the google calender sync. I tried following all those instructions and nothing seems to be working.
1. Does the email password it's asking you for the same password you use to log into your email account with? Or is it that weird password that you get when you sync your phone to gmail?
2. when my work email is hosted by gmail, but it's actually @somethingelse.com... is my servier still m.google.com?
Please help... has anyone else synced their calendar based on a work email hosted by google?
Thank you so much... I don't want to give up my Z10, but I can't work without my calendar

Try to enter something in your z10 and wait 5 min. See if it shows on Google.
I also have a Gmail business address with [email protected] My contacots and emails work fine but the calendar doesn't want to work. It works one-way only (from the Z10 to Google but not the other way around)
I am reading forums and support sites for a week now. I have tried all methods, with no success.
See, I live in Waterloo. I had an iPhone 4S and I switched to the Z10 as soon as it was available; I have MANY friends and relatives that work for RIM and I NEED to support them but I can't understand why an isue as important as this doesn't have an official answer from Blackberry.
I understand that this could be an issue with Google trying to sabotage RIM but where is the official explanation?

Gmail calendar sync is available why not hotmail calendar

Why s that you can sync to a gmail calendar but not to a hotmail account calendar.
Post relates to: None

Hotmail calendar sync is here! Microsoft recently added Exchange ActiveSync support to Hotmail accounts, giving full bi-directional sync of mail, contacts, calendar, and tasks.
To set this up, edit/create your Hotmail account using Manual Setup and set type as Exchange (EAS). Then use the following settings:
Server: m.hotmail.com
Domain: leave blank
Username and password is your email address and password.

I use tripit on both my iphone and ipad. However, while tripit will sync with the gmail calendar on my iphone, it will not sync with the gmail calendar on my ipad, even though the setting are all in place, correctly for both.

I use the "Tripit" travel app on both my iPhone and iPad2. While I have no problem getting my Tripit info synced to the Gmail Calendar on my iPhone, I am unable to get Tripit to sync to the Gmail calendar on my iPad, even though the setup information (email address, settings, etc.) are exactly the same. I know that Tripit is installed correctly on the iPad, as I am able to go to that app directly and correctly see all of my info. However, even though I've set up the secondary "Tripit" calendar feed (to Gamil) on the iPad, it's not synchronizing and showing up. Is anyone else having this problem?

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

Edit: the iPhone calendar works perfect with my MobileMe account, but I want it on Gmail as well ( if not both is possible I would prefer Gmail )

I tryed to add my gmail account to the microsoft exchange as it says in on of the links above, but the only thing that happend was that i got all of the email contact on gmail addon on my iPhone, which was really annoying since i cant call an email adress.
Anothing thing I would like to add is that i also would like to sync my contacts to Gmail.
I am fully aware that I have MobileMe, but I would like to have it synced to Gmail because thats what I use each day and I have 2-step-authentication.

Gmail calendar not syncing, now can't set up

Hi,
I'm on my second Playbook. I physically broke the last one (sniff). I had the gmail calendar sync working when I set it up in early Feb, but I noticed yesterday that it wasn't syncing anymore. Before anyone asks, I do have the latest OS.
I did some digging and here are my steps so far:
I was getting an error message when I double checked the settings and password for the account and clicked save. Email and contacts work correctly.
I checked the URL in my computer browser to see if I could get to it from my network. I used https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/events and after typing in my user and password, the file downloaded correctly. Opening it in notepad showed it was the right file and contained my calendar data in CalDAV format.
I then tried deleting and re-adding my gmail account. That's when I got this error: "Account Gmail - <my email address> - <my email address> failed testing with current settings." So I no longer have access to my gmail calendar or any of the entries that were there, because I already deleted the account.
I even tried KB33093 and that did not work for me either.
Is there something else I can try or is that it until the next OS update?
Note: I have a workaround by syncing my gmail calendar with a hotmail calendar and connecting to that on my playbook. It works, but it's not ideal as I can't edit the gmail calendar which is my main calendar.
Update: I was able to download the file at https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/events after typing in my user and password. A posting on another board thought that maybe the Playbook was being blocked by Google, this proves that it is not.

We must be at cross purposes. Gmail is imap and does not provide Activesync. Hotmail provides Activesync for mobile devices. Does your friend's playbook work if he deletes the account, restarts, then tries to add it back with caldav?
I think you are misinformed. According to Google: "Google Sync uses Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® to let your users synchronize their Google Apps mail, contacts, and calendars to their mobile devices." Here's the link. That is the service that has been converted to CalDAV for calendars, imap for Gmail and CardDAV for contacts. Hotmail/Outlook are ActiveSync as you say. I can't see Microsoft not using their own product, lol.
I don't think my friend would be willing to delete his accout and restart, lol. His PB is working after all

Calendar question - not syncing Gmail

I recently created a new Gmail account. My old Gmail account is my Apple ID, so everything was synced to that. I have the Gmail app set up as my new email account now, but it will not sync the calendar. In settings, under Gmail, it shows the correct email, and calendars are turned "on." Why is it not finding my calendar updates though? Is it because my Apple ID is my old email? I've linked the two email accounts, shared calendars with both accounts, but it's still not working
Suggestions???
Thanks!

Somehow you must be missing a detail, there's no reason for the Calendar app to not see the GMail calendar if the GMail account has been created and Calendar setting is turned on.
In re-reading your posts there are a few fishy things:
1- Your Apple ID has no relation to this. Even if your old GMail address is being used as your Apple ID that will have no effect on your Calendar. The key question is, in Settings do you still have this old e-mail address set up as an account? If so, delete this old GMail account from Settings/Mail if you're not using it. Deleting this account will have no effect on your ability to buy things from the iTunes store. You should only have the GMail account you're using entered into Settings/Mail. Once you do that, make sure that Calendar is turned ON for this account, and make sure that this account is being used as the default Calendar account in Settings/Mail (in the Calendar section).
2- In your first post you said "I have the Gmail app set up as my new email account now" The GMail app is only for mail, it does not provide Calendar support, so if all you did was add the app and sign into your GMail account, that's why your Calendar is not updating. If this is what's going on, you need to add your (new) GMail address as an account in Settings/Mail. If you're sure that you did this, there is no reason for your Calendar app to not see the caldendar associated with this account.
3- In your first post you said "I've linked the two email accounts, shared calendars with both accounts, but it's still not working" I suppose you did this as part of your troubleshooting, but there should be no reason to link two GMail accounts to get your calendars to show up.
