Is it just me and my htc hero or its not possible to use more then 1 calendar with gmail account?
I have multiple calenders that I use with my gmail account but I only see the first one (work) and can't add events or see any other calendar!
Is there a way to work around this?
Thanks
go to the calendar, click menu, then the 'Calendars' icon.
You should be able to select multiple calendars. I have 6!
I already did that before I posted question here and this is
what I see there (take a look at attached picture)
I guess I didn't understand the question fully...
I have multiple calendars within my main Google calendar. I presume you have multiple google accounts with separate calendars?
I'm not sure you can configure your phone to pick up more than one calendar at a time.
I do have multiple gmail accounts but in this case we are talking about
ONE gmail account with multiple calenders.As you can see I get only ONE calender which I find bit odd since it should sync both my calenders.
Been looking on gmail account settings for a way to solve this but no luck so far.
After fideling with settings and going back and fort with gmail account setting
I finaly got my second calender on hero.
Here is what you need to do in case you have same issue as me:
1.Make appointment/entry on the web in your gmail account on you second calender (or on one you are missing on your phone)
2.Do following on your phone: go to settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications, find Calender and Calender storage and push Clear data button on both.This way you are dumping your existing data from calender on yor phone.
3.Go to you calender app on you phone and it wil start sync like it did first time, and voila both calenders are available now.
Well done mate, glad you managed to figure it out.
Out of interest. Did you add your second calendar (Private) after you originally synced your google account with your hero?
i.e. you have to follow your steps if you add another calendar from now on??
Cheers
Second one "private" was made the same time as I added "work" one (few years back), so in theory it should be synced along with work when I added my account on hero. Why it was not synced in the first place? ...one of "hero's" mysteries
I made a test calender just a few sec ago and this one did sync right away with hero, so no need for dumping cache and forcing sync to get new calender.
I had probably calendar cache issue which fixed it self when I dumped the whole thing and force synced.
Now we know
Hi All,
I have registered my Google Apps account on my LG P500.
This is the only account configured on the phone.
I have my contacts and mails synchronizing well with my phone, however my Calendar is just not synchronizing with the Phone.
I have upgraded the Phone to 2.2.2 and have done a factory re-set many number of times, however the Calendar is still not synchronizing with the Phone.
I at times see 2-3 Calendar entries synced with the Phone, but the complete Calendar is not Synchronizing with the Phone.
This same Google Apps account syncs well with my HTC Hero (2.1), including the Calendar.
Can someone please suggest a solution for this issue.
I almost want to throw the phone in the Bin.
PLEASE HELP.
Any chance you have multiple Google calendars and the phone is only syncing the main one?

I am not using any Desktop app for synchronization.
The Google Sync on the phone should be able to sync my Calendar.
Calendar
Have you solved this?
Have you tried making your events visible in the calendar settings?
I'm just starting off with Android, and I can't figure out how to get my Google Calendar synced with the S3. Here is a screenshot of when I hit Calendars in "S Calendar": http://i.imgur.com/p3CcV.png
When I create a new event, I can choose which calendar it should be in: http://i.imgur.com/7V5lS.png
I created a Test event and tried choosing either of the other calendars, saving and syncing, but no matter what I cannot see the event on any other machine with my Google account. In Accounts and Sync, my Google account options are all checked to sync. This damned thing will not sync, though
(Contacts syncs fine, thankfully). Would appreciate any help!

My advice is to login from your notebook or desktop computer first and access Google Calendars directly as you can setup your main calendar much easier there. Once setup (calendar name, color, sharing options, etc), you can easily go under S Calendar and choose to sync the name of the calendar you just created online.
Afterwards, you'll be able to add/delete events from both your device or on your computer. Hope this helps!
Thanks, the problem is a little different now as I finally got the damned thing to sync with my Google account. Now, every time I create a new Event I keep getting the default calendar to be Samsung Calendar: https://www.dropbox.com/s/iq8bco0pnp7s2ni/Screenshot_2012-06-28-21-23-52.png
Yet in the S Planner Settings > Calendars I have this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hdj6hpp3tjvo66y/Image-1530870737.png As you can see, I only have my Gmail account checked, I have the My Calendars/Tasks and Samsung account all unchecked.
I even went into Accounts and Sync and unchecked every option for my Samsung account there, so the only account syncing right now on my phone is my Google account. Still the new Events in S Planner default to the Samsung Calendar!?! Greatly appreciate any way to solve this
Have you tried clearing data in calendar and calendar storage in settings yet? Then resync calendar stuff after that.

I'm having the same issue after I created a new gmail account. It syncs fine with my BlackBerry. When I added my new gmail account on my S2 it wouldn't sync my calendar or contacts. I thought there was an issue with my S2. It won't sync to my S3 as well. Is there something in gmail that I have to do? The calendar dates are still syncing on my old gmail account.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks, I did that, even rebooted the phone, but Samsung Calendar is still default. I think I'm going to use Jorte and forget about S Planner, despite how great it looks :/
I fixed my gmail calendar sync issues. No need to respond in case someone figures it out later on.
I got Calendar Calendar Events synced just fine, but apparently it won't sync Google Tasks. It wants you to use the Samsung-specific task system I guess. That sucks.
As soon as I root my phone I will delete the calendar app. I use the "Jorte" calendar app (available in Play store) which syncs everything and has the most robust options of any calendar app that I've seen so far (wince the last time I went app hunting last November, could be new apps by now). Jorte allows you to view Google Calendar Events and Google Tasks at the same time in multiple, customizeable different types of views (monthly, various versions of weekly views, daily, etc). Jorte is SUPER customizeable. I have found no other app that comes close in terms of functionality.
Another app call "LLama - Location Profiles" lets you automatically customize just about any aspect of your phone depending on your location and time of day. It will change your profiles automatically when you enter or leave a location at certain times. You can even tell it to remind you about something based on location and time. For example, you can have Llama remind you to "Clean Mom's car" when you arrive at Mom's house, or to "Ask my boss that question before I leave work!" if you are at your work location and it is almost time to leave.
That's a shame Samsung won't let you sync Google Tasks.
It's even more of a shame that Android's native Calendar app doesn't support Google Tasks. Come on now Google!

Thanks, yeah I have gone through oodles of calendar and task apps over the last few days, tried damn near everything worth trying, and I've settled with an excellent combo for me: Astrid + Jorte + Agenda Widget. It does everything I need. Thanks for the Lama app heads-up, will check it out!

Similar issue, if I create an event using s panner on my phone, the event doesn't sync to my gmail calender.
However, the planner does tkae events from the desktop g-calender.

same here
What's the "desktop g-calendar?"
Though I've been using Jorte all this time quite happily, after resetting a few days back I solidified that not entering your Samsung account information on first boot of the phone solves the S Planner syncing/calendar choice issue pretty much. You must set your Google account up first, then a Samsung account if you'd like. S Planner will then see the Google account as "default" and use it.
desktop as in when i access from my desktop pc. or laptop.

S3 Calendar Syncing issue
I just added a Google Calendar from the play store. Synced instantly!
unprofessional
Dear Google-Android- and Samsung-S3-developers!!
Here is a list of some very annoying facts:
- I have a Sasmung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 with the latest Android-Version 4.1.2.
- if I set up a new Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account on my S3 and sync it with my corperate Exchange 2010 Server I have duplicated entries in my S-Planner Calendar right from the very first sync.
- especially birthday entries (untimed entries with yearly repeat) are duplicated.
- I can reproduce this bug no matter how often I delete the calendar memory, remove and re-instal the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account, reset my phone etc.
- if I google this bug I get thousands of hits where users are reporting the very same bug with their Android phones (like in this thread).
- some of these duplicate entry bug reports go back for more than 1 year but so far no solution.
- syncing of contacts, emails and calendar entries with MS Exchange is considerd to be a basic function of a smart phone. That's why this functions is part of the pre-installed OS.
- the pre installed Exchange clients on all other devices (Apple iPhone, Nokia Symbian or Windows phones etc.) do NOT have this bug. Thus this is an Android bug and not MS Exchange.
SO WOULD YOU PLEASE FINALLY FIX THIS ANNOYING BUG IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!!!!
Hi everyone,
My phone Andorid version is: Gingerbread - 2.3.5
Until few days ago calendar sync was working without problem. But now stopped sync to google servers.
For example:
If I add appointment to my Google calendar online (browser on PC), it shows up on my android calendar - no problem. But when I add appointment on the android calendar (using the factory calendar as well as "Bussines Calendar") the appointments don't show up on my Google calendar online, but instead it's get deleted in my android calendar.
I've tried:
Restart the phone.
Syncing several times, turn sync on and off many times.
Clearing the data of Calendar store and Calendar applications.
This also happens on device Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (gingerbread)
Checked that I adding appointments to gmail calendar and not on local calendar
Can anybody with OS Gingerbread try this?
I've have the feeling that Google changed something on their Calendar services online....
Thanks.
Hello I came to this forum to search for the answer to the same question.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 with android 2.3.3 and I cannot add any new event to the google calendar. The event simply gets deleted after 1-2 minutes after I input it into the phone.
I have tried searching for answers on google, but the proposed solutions did not work. I tried: clearing Calendar app cached data; also tried creating a new calendar - the new calendar is there, but new events disappear from it 1-2 minutes after being created.
I am worried that google messed up something on their side - but I have no idea where to even report it.
Yes, I saw that Google updated their Google Calendar after I visited Google Calendar page (few days ago): https://www.google.com/calendar
So there must be some bug, becuase I also check their troubleshooter and still no solution to my problem:
https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/168512?hl=en
