[Q] Calendar sync to Google

Dears,
how is it possible to sync the calendar to Google?
When I created the 1st event, the phone asked me if to save to personal calendar or Google Calendar, so all my events are on personal calendar.
I enabled synchronization to my Google account, but it does nothing.
How can I sync all events to Google calendar?
Thanks and best regards

Go to settings > account & sync > Sync Gmail account. Your calendar should get synchronised.
Hope this helps!
Well, unfortunately this doesn't work, it starts syncing and finishes in just 5 seconds...
when the phone asks you to save the calender event to personal calendar or Google Calendar.... save it to google calender... it will be synced with your google calender account...
there is no easy way you can migrate the personal calender entries to google calender... so redo all those entries and save to google calender
Eheh... 5 years of events... amazing...
I think at this point I have to sync through Outlook...
I found this on a website:
1. Go to Applications under the Settings Menu
2. Select Manage Applications. Will take a few seconds to load.
3. Scroll down to Calendar Storage.
4. Midway down under Storage you will see "Clear Data" button. Press the button. This wipes out the data in the calendar on the PHONE ONLY. You now have a calendar with no data.
5. Go out to main screen and select the Menu button.
6. Select "Accounts & Sync.
7. Select the Google choice and the next screen should give you the choices of GMail, Contacts and calendar.
8. Select calendar and let it sync. Don't interrupt the process untill you get the green check mark in the box.

[Q] Contacts and facebook

On my previous galaxy s+ , I had connected my facebook contacts and their facebook photos with the contacts I had on the phone. So next to each contact there was a photo from facebook. How can I do this on sxs??? Thanks in advance.
You have to sync your contacts with facebook.. to do that do the following:
1.) In Facebook App go to Settings and at the bottom you can choose to sync with all facebook friends, existing contacts or none, choose existing contacts.
2.) Now you have to go to Settings > Account & Syncronization and create a new Facebook in Xperia Account. Now put on Auto-Sync and go into the Facebook inside Xperia account, there you have to tick the boxes away you don't want to use.

Nope. Nothing. There aren't any photos next to my contacts. Have you done it?

How to change App associations?

For instance initially I was using the Gmail app, but despite now using the ICS email app initiating emails from Contacts opens Gmail. Where in the settings do you change app associations? I just can't find it.
Setting, application manager, go into the application this is launching, clear defaults
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
You should be able to clear defaults for the respective app: either Gmail or Stock Email if you navigate to Settings/Application Manager/All/Gmail or Email.
If you have already set the defaults for your contacts to be Gmail (for instance), when you navigate to the above directory you will be able to select "Clear defaults."
Thanks guys.

Try and remove the account in the settings app:
Settings -> Accounts & Sync -> Google
Select the account and click the three dots in the top right hand corner and select remove account.
After doing this go back to the account settings and re-add the account.
