More details might help. What rom are you running, have you done anything special to it, what steps you've taken to try and fix it, is this your first android phone?

Stock rom, just rooted. Ive tried syncing manually, clearing the calendar data, trying to fix it via google calendar website, tried a few calendar applications. Not sure what to do now.
Its my second phone, Inspire was my first
Does everything else sync?
From your response it sounds like you have looked this up already. So with that in mind maybe it's more of a small detail.
Are the calender events you're saving being saved to your Google calender or your local calender?

Well I dont really sync anything honestly. This is pretty much the first time I've tried to sync with this phone. The event is being saved onto my Google Calender.
Edit:
When I go into Settings>Accounts and Sync>My Gmail, it only shows Contacts, Gmail, and Picasa. No calendar here.
Wow. That's a first for me. How did you root your phone?

So when you access your calendar none of the events show up?
And you have tried opening the menu once you access the calendar going to settings->Calendar Sync-> selecting gmail syncing that way?
I know that with my calendar, contacts, etc. it took a long time before the information updated. I would say about 10-15 minutes and I did not create 5 months events more like major holidays and 250 or so facebook related events.
I would suggest giving it more time or rebooting the phone and trying the whole thing all over again.

that was for the Nexus 1 but maybe it'll work for you. Add a 2nd gmail account and see if that calendar sync option reappears.

Ok I added my 2nd gmail account, I get "Sync Contacts, Sync Gmail" only
If it were my phone I'd flash stock to see if that fixes it. Seems like the software is messed up. I can't think of any reason Calender wouldn't show up under sync.

Well I didnt flash any ROM, i just rooted so I can get a few rooted apps. Im new to this, but that means im still on the stock ROM right?
Correct, you're still on stock then. I really like entropy512's method, as it flashes stock (can help fix most system problems if you're running a stock rom) and it's rooted.
I'm not promising you wont lose what apps you've installed, but I've had a few times I've done it now and all my apps stayed installed. Pretty quick process all in all.

I am running CM9 on my Touchpad and I am using the Hotmail app.
I can sync my contacts OK but I cannot sync my Hotmail calendar.
I can do this on my Android 2.3 phone.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

I use the same app and have no issues... have you tried wiping the app's cache and data then uninstalling and reinstalling
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
Yes I have tried several times to that.
When I go to the stock calendar, the only account I see is gmail .
And if I add a new account, I get message that the account is already there.
Any other ideas?

Have you uninstalled or frozen the email app?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
Yes, I have cleared data, uninstalled app, rebooted and then reinstalled.
Sorry but I don't know what frozen is.

I'm referring to the stock "Email" app that comes with Android. Or have you thought of using it instead of the Hotmail app?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I believe this is a bug that started with Android v 4.0.x
For instance, my work email is a live365 account and my phone running CM9 will not my get emails, it's loading forever with default email app...
I have not tried the default email app.
The weird thing is that the email pat, even contact syncing works. It's just the calendar syncing.
I will post some screenshots of my TP when I get home.

With stock app, are you able to sync Hotmail calendars as well as contacts?
The calendar syncing is my issue, not the contacts.

I got sick of the Hotmail app and moved to the stock one and have ever since not been able to sync the Calendar. I'm not really comfortable with Hotmail calendar --> Google calendar --> Phone calendar. As mentioned by an other member earlier, this could've something to do with Android 4.0.x., especially since it was working with 2.3.6 for me. Have attached a few screen shots to show what I mean.
I guess this is a Hotmail (Microsoft) issue with Android 4.0.x
This suck becuase I have all my dates in Hotmail calendar.
I guess should move to Google calendar
Simple change in settings solved the problem for me.
1. Set Sync frequency to Automatic - Push instead of Never.
2. Turn on Auto sync.
3. Wait for it to sync.
Live calendar will then appear in android calendar.

No the issue is your setup because I have 8 Android devices and all of them sync both my Gmail and Hotmail accounts (mail, contacts, calendars and tasks) without a hiccup

Whats wrong with my setup? I have un-installed the app, cleared cache, removed all accounts. I have used stock email and calendar app as well. What else could i try.
I really appreciate your help by the way.

Of course Ive taken for granted that you have double checked all your sync options in the apps you are trying to use and set them to push correct?
Also taking for granted that you have toggled all those settings on and off and rebooted in between toggles correct?

I have tried everything you have suggested, but I do not get the calendar sync option. Please look at these screenshots.
Hi there
I have an acer iconia a500 (ICS)and I have the same problem. Well, everything was working fine but suddenly my calender and contacts didn't sync.I figured out that microsoft wants us to use the dedicate app from the market. You can still use the stock email app for email only. What you can do is use the microsoft app only to sync calendar and contacts.
Hey guys I have added the Facebook acct (for syncing) but the calendar keeps saying "sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly". Ive tried removing the acct and adding it back but its still happening. Any1 any ideas why this is happening or how to fix?
I'm having the same issue. Looks like the last time it sync'ed was 02/07 how about you? The strange thing is that Gallery sync on the same account is working normally, and contact sync for the facebook app itself is working normally.
I'm putting this down to an issue on facebook's side - as I've also tried removing the account and re-adding.
It would be interesting to see if our devices stopped syncing on the same day.
i am having the same issue as well, gonna give it a day or so and see if it works itself out. i agree that its probably on the FB side of things
Same here.. It's probably the FB protocol or something knowing them post if you figure it out. Wonder if newer roms work or not? Be a quick upgrade then port the new file umm

Just replaced the SNS.apk from /system/app with a newer version from the latest ROM released. Seems to work!
I'll upload the files tomorrow to drop box, odex and none, tomorrow some time..
Edit: Here is a link to the files. Suggest you backup your old ones first and replace. Delete dalvik cache, reboot, add the new account. Might take another reboot to get your apps going. Working in Jorte Calender now

Hi, you can also export your FB calendar via parameters in your FB web page, and paste it in your google calendar (always via web), activate it in your sgs3 calendar app and it's good
See link below for more details: (works for events and birthday)

Yeah I already synced my fb bdays through Google before this happened and bdays is the only event type I have so I unticked the calendar syncing.

Email App issues
Whenever i delete a email it doesnt seem to actually delete them as when i go onto my PC there all there :S
is there a way to fix this issue?
also i have noticed theres no option to sync emails using email check frequency as theres no "Auto" option only manual and mins there after
i wish there was a way to get the stock android email app
does anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance as always
Well, does the email service you're using use IMAP or POP3? If you don't know what these are, then Google it. It'll take you 30 seconds.

Check incoming settings for the account. If it's imap, then there's no option to delete from the server, if it's pop3 then you have the option to delete from server when deleting on device.
AFAIK outlook is only imap these days. But hunt for pop3 settings with Google, there may be a work around.

I can't get the email to sync on its own. I have it set to auto sync, and push is enabled, but still only syncs manually. Anyone else having this issue?

Maybe not related but I read in one of the reviews there's a problem in the default exchange email client of the phone that needs fixing by an update and the reviewer recommends another app like Nine (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninefolders.hd3). But I think it was about asking for a pin+password to login while other apps don't.
I installed nine, but it doesn't allow the combined inbox view, which I always use having 4 different email accounts. Also, I cant tell if it auto syncs either.
Wouldn't this be something related to the power saving options such as if you have stamina mode enabled, it overrides any scheduling you have set in the app? (Sorry if this isn't helpful as I don't have the phone yet myself).

I agree with this and also if you have the Qualcomm battery guru installed, delete it as it also messes with push notifications.
