[Q] Sync Outlook Contact and Calendar with Google

Dear all members,
Just to check whether how we can sync my outlook contacts and calendars with my Google account.
I have tried Google App Sync but I have encounter an error which need the Google app sync to be enabled in the email account..
Anyone know what I should do or any easy software to sync the contacts and calendars between Google and Outlook?
i think this was only turned on from 2.1 up then it was enhanced in 2.2
If you are planning on doing this only once a workaround is to export your Outlook contacts to a comma separated .csv file and upload this file to Google contacts. Works very nice, but I understand you might need to do it a smoother way if you need to sync Outlook and Google often.

Hi,
Yes, I will prefer that there will be a software which will continously sync the contacts in my Outlook with Google and that is why Google App Sync caught my mind.
But I know that I can only use it if my Google account is the premier and not the normal type.
Anyone know whether there is other software which can do the task?

Try turning Outlook off then on again?
I have noticed when ever I start Outlook now I get a popup asking about which "profile" (i think is the word used) to enable; google sync or outlook?
Syncing between X10i and Outlook (business phone is foked without this ability imo) is the main reason I am travelling along the rooting road at the moment... not started the search for the software yet.
Have installed google sync but not used yet as I am uncomfortable storing 20+ years worth of valuable networking details in that giants hands
Good luck

Thanks. I managed to find 3rd party software called Companion link but required to purchase in order to use. If the software is good, I dun mind paying for it.
Guys,
I have managed to try out the CompanionLink software whereby you can synchronize the outlook contacts and calendars with your Google account, it work perfectly so with this software, there is no hassle either you do update on your phone or PC using Outlook.
check it out if you are interested :
http://www.companionlink.com/
However, you can try it for 15 days and if you like it, you will have to purchase the license which I will be intending to purchase this software.

Guys, I just turned on my X10 first time.
When I go to Calendar app it asks me to login to Google account.
That may be strange question for users here, but - do I HAVE to login to Google
to use Calendar on X10?!
i'm using MyPhoneEx and it works well and it is free
I also use MyPhoneExplorer

?! I was asking about Calendar application...
Yeap. I use MyPhoneEx to sync outlook contact/Calendar directly into my X10. If I want to sync contact/calendar with Google, I just goto Setting ->Accounts & Sync and press sync contacts (or Calendar).
That's why your X10 asked you to log-in to google when you turned it on. If you've not log-in to Google, the calendar in X10 is still working fine but you cannot sync it with google contact (or calendar).

[Q] Show Lotus Notes Calendar on Android Calendar

Hi.
I use Lotus Traveler to show my work mail and calendar. For my personal activities I use Google Calendar.
The problem is that I cant seem to be able to show them both in the same app. I know it is possible to sync the Lotus Calendar with my Google Calendar, but this has to many drawbacks so no thanks.
Does anybody know any app that allows me to import Lotus Calendar, multiple Google Calendars and show them both in a monthly view?
-Tom
I don't think this is exactly what you're looking for, but this is what I use:
http://lngooglecalsync.sourceforge.net/
Thanks. The problem with that is that calendar entries added to lotus notes on my phone wont display untill I turn on the computer and sync them. Plus the security issues with giving google access to my work calendar...
Just want an overview so that I can see all entries at once without sync..
Did anyone found a way to get all calendar entries from Lotus traveler(sync) inside android calendar without using any pc software?

Calendar NOT Synchronizing

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.

Have you solved this?
Have you tried making your events visible in the calendar settings?

[Q] Recommendation for a Calendar App without Google?

I would like to try Android without GAPPS, and now I am looking for a calendar app which does not rely on the Google Calendar.
This is not an issue of using the built-in calendar app without syncing to Google, but the use of Android without even using a Google account.
Can anyone recommend a suitable app, if it even exists?
i use biz calender that lets you sync with any account google,microsoft,yahoo ect
I like Pocket Informant.
I forgot to mention, I don't really want to sync the calendar at all, but just want to use it on the phone.
The calendar should be able to handle normal appointments, birthdays and anniversaries with reminders in advance, a nice desktop widget would be nice as well.
Any more ideas?

Custom ROMS and Exchange Calendars

I cannot find any definitive information on this..
I am running AndroWook and my calendar will sync fine the first time. But it doesn't update again. Anyone have any information?
I reflashed google apps. But that didn't help.. If I remove the account and re-add, the first sync works. If I disable calendar sync and re-enable, the calendar remains empty. I'm going to test some other roms.
AnrdoWook 2.1 - No exchange sync
