Syncing Samsung Note II with Google Calendar

Hi All.
I had a problem where info I added to my Google Calendar on my PC would go to my phone, but entries in my phone would not sync to Google.
I seem to have found a solution: Google will only sync to Google if you enter it in the Google Calendar app on your phone. If you enter info on the built in calendar app, it will sync with the Google Calendar ON THE PHONE but NOT to Google Cloud (or whatever it is called).
I didn't know the difference between the two, and thought, if they are both synced on the phone, why not to Google? Well, just because, it seems! ;-)
So, the Google Calendar is the one you must use on the phone if you want it to sync. And the Google Calendar is the BLUE one; stupidly (IMHO), they are both called "Calendar" under apps. The green one is the Samsung model; when you tap it, it comes up with a brown border. When you tap the Google Calendar -- the one you need to add events into to have them sync -- the border is blue by default.
Hope this helps anyone else having problems!

Ann154 is right and I provided the steps below. I recently got a replacement for my Note 2 from the insurance. The Samsung Calendar App on my phone displayed all entries in my Google Calendar (online) and would display new entries I added via the Samsung Calendar app. However, my Google Calendar wouldn't display any entries added via the Samsung Calendar app. Very annoying, but here's a simple solution (assumes you've already linked your gmail calendar to your phone):
Solution:
Open Samsung Calendar
Hit menu button to open popup list
Select "Calendars" from the popup list
Select "Display" button in the bottom left
Scroll down to the section for your Google Calendar, make sure your gmail calendar is checked and check any additional gmail calendars that you want to display in your phone's calendar (e.g. weather, moon, etc.)This section will have the Google logo and your gmail address
Scroll down to the section for your Samsung Calendar, UNCHECK your Samsung calendar.This section will have the Samsung logo and your gmail address
Select "Done" button in the top right
Select the back arrow in the top left to go back to your calendar
Now, all entries you add in your Samsung Calendar App will be displayed in your Google Calendar.
I hope this helps someone else who's having this problem.

IPhone 6, manual sync of contacts and calendar with Google?

I usually prefer a manual sync of things like contacts and calendar with Google, rather than an automatic periodic sync. I don't change my calendar or contact list very often, so manual sync works best for me. I could do this with Android, but with iOS if I sync contacts and calendar with Google, and then turn off that syncing, iOS wants to remove my Google contacts and Google calendar events from my phone. So I seem to have no choice, either auto-sync, or no Google contacts and calendar events at all.
Does anyone out there know of a way to manually sync my Google contacts and calendar events when I want to?
How often does the Google calendar and contacts sync get done? Maybe it isn't an issue, if it only does a sync when I change my Google contact list or Google calendar?
Anyways, I really don't like automatic, periodic syncing to a web site happening on my phone if I don't need them to happen.
Thanks.

I can help you with your calendar problem.
You'll need to export your calendar from google into iCal, and then start making all your changes to your iCal calendar.
I wrote up the procedure with some screenshots here!

I hope it helps.
About your contacts, I'm not sure I'd be able to give you good instructions since I haven't done the whole procedure myself. I did however, have my Address Books contacts synced with Google.
This post might help you. It talks about moving Google Contacts to your Address Book.
http://take-a-tech-tip.blogspot.com/2011/09/iphone-google-contacts-sync-and.html
That should get your contacts from Google to your address book. Then, you can set up iCloud to have your contacts synced, and that should put them to iCloud. You can check by going to icloud.com and seeing if it worked. Then, I imagine you would have to disable the Google syncing with your Address Book (if I remember correctly, your computer will tell you it has to do this once you enable iCloud syncing for contacts).

Want to backup my list of about 450 iPhone contacts, or agregate with google

Will syncing my iPhone contacts list with google contacts add to (agregate), or lose iphone contacts not already in google contacts?

i found this article that might interest you
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1245?viewlocale=en_US
What I personally did though to add my google contacts along with my iphone contacts is
add account in (ios settings - mail ) as a microsoft exchange. I used the google info/ settings found here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740 , after set up is complete, you can choose whether to sync your mail, calendar, and contacts.

Sync contacts/calendar problem with 160gb classic

I've been unable to successfully sync contacts and calendars with my Windows PC (running XP).
I am using software version 1.1.1 and iTunes version 7.6.0.29.
When I try and sync with my Outlook calendar, the iPod/iTunes appears to be syncing. When I disconnect the iPod and look in the calendar, no events are saved. When trying to sync contacts, I check the "sync contacts from" box and then pull down to "microsoft outlook". As soon as I attempt to hit the "microsoft outlook" pull-down, iTunes freezes. I've not had any issues syncing music, podcasts, etc.
Thanks in advance for your help!

The easy way is just to do a restore. In the future, I wouldn't work on my iTunes library files while the iPod is connected. It seems to me that iTunes already uses a HUGE chunk of system resources, and having the iPod connected just uses even more. Then when you start changing ID3 tags ("Get Info"), it can really cause the system to CHUG. If you don't believe me, try just changing one ID3 tag on a 1.5GB movie file. iTunes practically takes over the computer until it's darned good and ready to do something else.
Or, I'd download [Tagger|http://tvtagger.wordpress.com>, which doesn't use nearly as many resources as iTunes, and allows you to edit many more ID3 fields than iTunes does.

Can I sync contacts via iTunes with Mavericks?

I would like to sync contacts and calendars via iTunes (wifi or not) to/from my iMac and not use iCloud. Can I do this? If so, how?
Thanks in advance,

Make sure neither the phone nor the Mac have the Contacts/Calendars options enabled in their respective iCloud configurations, have the Mac's iTunes set to sync contacts/calendars up with the device (look in the respective tabs of the device's window),
except this option is currently not available with Mavericks (as the OP asked).

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

Built in iSight not working with Google chat?

Hi all,
I recently updgraded to Mac OS X version 10.7.2 for my Intel based iMac. Since then, the built in iSight camera does not work with Google Chat. It does work with iChat and Photobooth though.
I reistalled the Google chat plug in (or I guess I installed it again). I ran a check, and my software updates are current. I tried the power down, unplug the power cord, wait 15 seconds routine, and that didn't work either.
When I go in to Mail Settings in gmail, click Chat, and then Verify your Settings, I don't see anything in the window next to it - just black.
Does anyone have any good ideas to help? Using google chat is just a lot more convenient for me than using iChat...
Thanks!

Hi,
For some time now the Google Web Browser Video Chat plug-in (Also and automatic part of Installing Chrome) has been an issue in relation to going to Video Chat sites that use the Flash Plug-in.
My Flash Plug-in in Lion is version 11.1 r102
I don't have the Google one so I could not tell you the latest from them.
I am not sure that Google are moving very fast, if at all on this matter.
It could be as soon as either Flash makes an update it ruins the progress Google have made.

Versamail Auto-sync feature not working with AOL mail w/Treo 700p (Verizon)

I'm having a problem with the Auto-sync feature not working with my 700p (verizon) with my aol mail. It had worked perfect since May 2007. Just started having problems End of April 2008. Sounded like I needed another incoming mail server from aol other than: imap.aol.com, aol told me they also use pop.aol.com, that isn't working either. I get an error message that says "last auto-sync attempt failed."....Anyone else having this issue? I'm trying to decide whether to get rid of my aol mail of 14 yrs and use other address to continue using versamail 3.5 or keep aol and use Verizon Wireless sync. I do not like how wireless sync sends mail to outbox and then syncs vs sending right away. Please help...
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Verizon)

I am having the EXACT same problem: Palm 700p, Versamail, AOL, Verizon.
It started about 1 month ago. The GET still works, but AUTO-SYNC does not...After spending hours on the phone with Palm tech support, and reaching someone who said AOL had changed something in their servers. They suggested TRYING Chatteremail, another Palm product. I have tried it for 20+ days out of the 30 days you get for free. It works pretty well, but NOT every e-mail that goes to my AOL acct is making it to my phone. The thing that's great about Chatter is that can be "live" all of time. Not auto-syncing every 15 minutes.
It's very frustrating....The same way the Versamail just stopping auto-syncing is very frustrating. With Versamail, sometimes I did not even get the error message. If Chatteremail worked consistently, I would bite the bullet, and pay for it, but to pay for it, and have it not pull down all the e-mails, all the time is not good.
I spoke to Palm Tech Support in N. America today, and they say the way AOL uses IMAP servers is in a non-traditional way, and it's very hard to deal with. They suggest ditching AOL, and using something reliable for syncing purposes like GMAIL. It's just hard to cut the cord. The man I was on the phone with knew of my problem, and he solved it by getting rid of AOL. It's just tough, since so many people have the e-mail address for me.
On http://mobile.aol.com/aolproducts/mobile-email/mail-client
there seems to be some indication when you click on Smart Phones on left, that Coming Soon is Palm, but I don't know if that's going to be downloadable for 700p, or Palms moving forward. Or how far away that is.
I tried wireless sync and hated it.
This is really a pain in the butt.
*** Who did you speak to at AOL?
*** How did you reach them? e-mail? phone #?
I also did a search and found another program called "Snappermail", which I might try, and see if it's any better than Chatteremail.

Firefox 4 is not secure; Firefox 5 is a security and stability update for Firefox 4. The only currently supported versions of Firefox are Firefox 5 and Firefox 3.6.19 (support to expire in a month or two).
As for the Google toolbar....
Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox beyond Firefox 4.

Bravia Sync does not work with Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B and BDV-N8100W Bluray 3D Home Theatre System.

Bravia Sync does not function with my Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B and Sony BDV-N8100W Bluray 3D Home Theatre System. The Sony Bravia XBR-55X900B does not list the Sony BDV-N8100W on the Bravia Sync device list. Does anyone have an explanation or solution for this?

Please use a component cable. With either RCA or optical for audio. That is the quickest fix. For current HDMI issues.
1.7 upgrade has been known to fix most of the HDMI issues. Verizon is working diligently to roll out img 1.7.

Mozila 5 is not compatible with google tool bar?!?! a Disaster :S please helop?

The mozila 5 is not compatible with google tool bar !?!?! This is a disaster? Please are y'all aware of this problem ? How could I fix it :S:S

Extensions for Firefox, such as the Google Toolbar, include a list of compatible Firefox versions. Currently, the Google Toolbar only goes up to Firefox 4. However, people have tested and it actually works on Firefox 5, so there are two workarounds:
(1) Edit a file to revise the range of compatible versions
(2) Install an add-on that lets you ignore the range of compatible versions
This thread has info on both approaches: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/837142 google toolbar does not work with firefox 5.0. why not! | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].
Any luck?
