Sync Google Apps w/ BB10

This knowledge base article seems to be a bit off, at least from my experience. It states that to sync Google Cal, using CalDAV, to enter https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/<emailaddress>/events
In fact, it's a lot simpler, I entered only www.google.com in the server address field and successfully synced my Google calendar. The same was used to sync my Google contacts, but at CardDAV.

Unfortunately no, not at all. I've tried these boards which were obviously fruitless on this question. I've tried the Genius Bar. And I've tried other technical resources. I do not believe it's possible at this point.
"Little stuff" like this.... it's seemingly relatively trivial in the grand scheme of things, but can be real productivity killers when I have to go back and forth between Apple's Contacts software and the actual Google Apps/Gmail web UI. It's these little things that create quirks between Google Apps and Mac OS that almost make me want to return to Exchange. It's much more expensive and other than Outlook and Calendar/Mail/Contacts, there's no virtually no interoperability options on the Mac. But at least it's consistent and I know what will work and what won't.
On the other hand, I could also solve this problem by simply putting ALL of my contacts in my Google Apps account into the "My Contacts" folder. But that kinda defeats the purpose of having a "My Contacts" folder.
Sorry Steven--I wish I had a better update or a resource to point you to, but I'm at the end of the road on this one.

How to sync Google Apps contacts from ALL groups to Mac OS X Contacts/Address Book

I have some 4,000 contacts in my Google Apps account. I used to store all of them in Google's "My Contacts" category, but my iOS devices had huge performance issues searching through 4,000 contacts as I typed a name or phone number on the device. So I trimmed it down and only keep the 200 or so most often used contacts in the "My Contacts" folder. This works because iOS devices are only able to sync that one category of contacts.
However, I now want to sync my Google Apps contacts with Mac OS X Contacts/Address Book. I'd like it to sync ALL of the contacts, not just those 200 in "My Contacts".
Is this possible? I'm using Mountain Lion and Google Apps Premier.
I used to be able to achieve this using SpanningSync. But as of a couple weeks ago, SpanningSync has been permanently discontinued due to architectural changes with the sync engine in Mac OS X. I'm not aware of any other contacts synching tools that could do it.
I know that Address Book/Contacts won't be able to show my Google Apps categories--just a single long list of everyone. That's totally fine by me, as long as I can get all contacts in the Mac OS X application and only the My Contacts group on my iPhone and iPad.
Any and all guidance would be VERY much appreciated.

How do I sync Googles Apps in Mail 5.3 (re-post)

There's a post here about setting up Google Apps email through MS Exchange on Mail.app 5.2, but this doesn't work for me in 5.3.
The email I've been using for well over a decade is from a former dial-up ISP (Worldshare.net) and I am paying $10/year to keep the address. They've since moved mail to Google Apps.
I'm looking to close that account, but I'd like to save some of the messages, preferably in Mail.app format. I'm looking at no more than 200 messages and, if I could only get those into Mail.app, I can preserve them in a folder "On my Mac."
I opened a standard gmail account, hoping to Import these Google Apps messages, from which they could be accessed in Mail 5.3, but gmail won't accept the Worldshare IMAP credentials. I've enabled POP on both accounts, but still no luck.
Any thoughts on how I might get this done?
Thanks.
PS: I am also unable to set up this Worldshare Google Apps mail account on iOS6.

After installing Mavericks on my iMac, Apple Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. Now Mail crashes every time I open it. What's up?

After installing Mavericks on an imac, Mail would not sync with my Google Apps email account. After I clicked on All Mail the program crashed and now it crashes every time I open Mail. Does anyone have an suggestions?

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Calendar on MacBook Pro using Mavericks 10.9 will not sync with Google Apps for Business

Ever since the Mavericks upgrade, I have had problems syncing my MacBook Pro Calendar with my Google Apps for Business Accopunt. When Mavericks first came out, I could do a work-around and set up a second CalDev account and that worked for a while. But with the most recent update to Mavericks, in part apparently to solve Google integration issies, the Calendar app will not sync either through the mail account setup in System pref, or by setting up a separate CalDev account. I have no functioning Calendar on my MacBook, thogh the CalDev account option works fine on my iPhone and iPad, and of course all work on the PC with Google Apps Sync.
Appreciate any advice, or better appreciate if Apple were to get this right ASAP.

Thank you for your answer, unfortunately that is not the solution. I found the plug-in where it was already properly installed in the Root Level Library>Internet Plug-ins Folder. It was NOT to be found in the [User Name]>Library>Internet Plug-Ins Folder, so I copied it there from the Root Level Folder, Rebooted, deleted all cookies, signed in to Netflix, and I still get the same:
Thanks for installing
Once installation is complete please restart your browser to watch this movie.
So, I tried a complete re-install of Mavericks OSX 10.9, from scratch. I checked all Internet Plug-In Folders and the latest version Silverlight Plug-in is in all of them. Still, I get the same:
Thanks for installing
Once installation is complete please restart your browser to watch this movie.
Any other Suggestions?

Calendar sync broken for Google Apps accounts

The Calendar no longer syncs with my Google Apps account; not in either direction. It pops up the sync notification and reports success, but nothing changes. I tried removing and adding the account. This actually broke in 1.2.1, but by the time I noticed, I assumed a fix was around the corner. 1.3.1 didn't help. I even created a brand new test account using the newly enhanced support for Google Apps. Mail and contacts work fine, but the calendar won't budge. Palm, I can give you the test account to play with if you'd like.
My standard Gmail account calendar syncs just fine. Saw the troubleshooting for standard account calendars and tried playing with the invitation options in my Apps account to no avail.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

#1 is good already. I tried changing the other differences: Default View was month, Location had my zip code, Automatically Add Invitations was set to Yes.
#2 using network settings correctly had me in Central, but it said Regina, Canada. Changed it to Chicago and rebooted, but I'm still not syncing either way on my account nor the test account.
Here's the really odd thing. My Pre has all four of your entires on the test account from the 3rd and 4th. I just tried creating entries for the test account from both my Pre and desktop, and I'm not seeing any syncing. I've forced it about five times over the past 20 minutes.
Sounds like we're down to it either being homebrew's fault or something stuck in my launch day profile that would survive a wipe. I wiped my phone under 1.3.1 to undo a lot of homebrew cruft, but I still can't say I ever tested this in a virgin state. Enh. Go ahead and close the ticket. My workaround is fine with me. Feel free to keep using the test account for other stuff if you want.

Bug in Mail when using Google Apps Gmail and sync

I found a bug in the sync process between the Mac and the phone. If you have Mail (on the computer) set to use Google Apps for Your Domain, the sync on the phone changes the user for the mail account. I assume this is because it sees "smtp.gmail.com" or something and decides to "protect" you from having an incorrect user account.
So for example, if you're using Google Apps and your e-mail is [email protected], Mail (on the computer) will also have smtp.gmail.com and pop.gmail.com as the servers. When sync'd to the phone, iTunes or the phone decide to change the user account for both servers to [email protected]@gmail.com, which is of course not what we want.
I'm kind of annoyed that they're trying to protect us like this.

Yeah unfortunately if you tried to send an e-mail
before discovering that bug, you will have an error
message show every time you access Mail saying "the
sender address [email protected]@gmail.com was
rejected by the server."
I can't get it to go away even by deleting the
account on iPhone and not setting it to sync.
Anybody know of a fix?
-AJT
Yes. Create the GMail account on your iPhone using the Other shortcut instead of the GMail shortcut. That will let you specify whatever address you want.

Google apps sync with Pre2 failed

Hi
I was using google apps sync with my old Pre (1.4.5) and it worked fine.
Configuration is same as iphone. Just select Exchange EAS and use the manuel exchange settings to m.google.com
this synced all mails, calendar, contacts similar to an Microsoft exchange server.
However, I can't get it running on the Pre 2. It conncets but but no mails or calendar entries appear.
Any idea? Is this not supported anymore with WebOS 2. This would be a very big step back.
Best Regards
Joerg
Post relates to: Pre 2 p102ueu (Unlocked EU)

Hi, thanks for the info, do you know the name of this option?
BTW: It's a google apps company account and Pop and IMAP is disabled, so for webos1.4.5 the exchange option is working pretty nice. Would be great if I can enable this in webos2.0, then the sync limitations mentioned in other forum threads won't be there.

Google Apps calendar sync is notifying me of everyone's meetings...

I have a Google Apps account that I have syncing contacts, IMAP, and the Calendar.
There are ~50 calendars or so that are being synced, and by this I mean they're ON in:
http://www.google.com/calendar/syncselect
...and I've unchecked them in the calendar's "top" "Manage" menu, aside from those I actually want to view.
Yet I get notified from my coworker's meetings ... continuously. This is particularly irritating because the sync'ed account is not even an attendee in the meetings.
How do I get the notifications to go away?

Using Microsoft Exchange to access Gmail (Google Apps for Business) contacts, what is the best way to sync the Corporate Directory?

Using Microsoft Exchange to access Gmail (Google Apps for Business) contacts, what is the best way to sync the Corporate Directory? For instance, we have 40 staff members and wish to populate each phone with the Gmail profile. Right now we have a third party Android app that does this and copies my contacts to each phone. This is problematic. Any solutions to populate a phone with email and phone contacts? Even it it requires double entry for me...thats ok.

Oh, I meant Leopard does do more than Tiger Server.
I don't know enough about Server, even less abut Syncing.
SL is to new, not enough time to iron out the kinks yet imho.
One day SL will be better than Leo, but...
I'd ask over in server...

They may even have a different opinion on SL.

Outlook 2013 with Office 365 and Google Apps Sync.

This is the scenario, hopefully somebody can give me some insight on how to resolve this.
Outlook 2013 with gapps. Both updated.
Outlook profile with an office 365 email account (which is as an exchange account) and google apps with our main account.
We installed an office 365 account since its the only way that several users can share and edit the same contacts on Outlook. They use almost all contact fields.
Gapps its the main email address and calendar. Shared calendars are deeply used too.
The problem is that when I edit a contact (the exchange account) I get an error -when- I edit the email field.
"The operation failed. The messaging interfaces returned an unknown error."
If I make a new Outlook profile with the exchange account and the gapps account via imap setup I get not errors BUT I loose calendars sync.
So I went back to the main profile and thought. <maybe both contacts engines are screwing Outlook.> So, since I don't care about gapps contacts anymore I disabled via:
Disable sync for individual products
https://support.google.com/a/answer/1041455?hl=en
And also disabled the dynamic Global Address (just in case).
But the same happens.
I tried with another box, with office 2010, updated it and made a new profile with the office 365 and gapps and the same history.
Finally I though about setting the office 365 account as imap but contacts are not downloaded.
So I'm between a rock and a hard place here.
I need to use office 365 account in the same profile as gapps account.

Hi,

Syncing two address books (via Google Apps) - select which gets new entry?

Hello.
I have two Google Apps accounts (one is personal, one is work) which I have synced to my phone via the MS Exchange option when creating a new account. Everything works great (mail, calendar, contacts) with regards to syncing, etc. but, I am having a small issue with contacts. When I create a new contact via the iPhone, I don't know where I select which account the new contact should be created in. Does anyone know where I can select this so it's not always adding to the one account?
Thanks,
Kristin.

Follow-up: can I do the magic in Bento? (Please, tell me I do not need to go down on either of the AppleScript or FileMaker paths...)
