football fixtures in google calendar - myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games

I just found these public calendars in google, fantastic. BUT they havent appeared in my phone calendar. Any thoughts?
They appear as a link so I have copied to my own calendar for now. Obviously I'd rather not have to do this as I'm a lazy tyke.

Hi!
I was looking for an answer to that question 5 minutes ago. I'm afraid I found it:
http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=37098 (expand Sports)
"Keep in mind that it's not possible to sync sports calendars with other calendar applications at this time."
Hopefully they will fix this soon.

I added United's fixtures to my google calendar yesterday via the link on this page (sorry it doesn't have other teams there). It added to my calendar with no problem and synced with the phone perfectly.
PS- I'm talking about football as in the sport in which men kick balls with their feet as oposed to the American game using a non-spherical item with their hands

Many Thanks.
(Using the Pratchett 'many' that's two each)
I am happy for this thread to be closed unless it remains open until they fix the compatibility?

Nexus One Google Calender old items issue

Not sure if you have similar too.
I switched to Nexus One from a Hero in July.
Just now I looked into the Calender, it shows events back to only around June 2010 or so... all the events previously established, which I can find them on the desktop version of Calender, are missing on my phone's Calendar. Of course, I sync'ed countless of times of the calendar already.
Is there anyone who can guide me through on showing all the past events on Google Calendar on my Nexus One? I dont see any settings doing so.
Please. Thanks.
Maybe this helps you http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3672#c66.

[Q] Create repeat events in Jorte?

Have seen various posts on other sites from people who say they can create repeat events and others who say they can't. If anyone here is using Jorte and are able to create repeat events, can you please post the steps and what Jorte version you are running?
Thanks
hello, i use jorte a lot, too, and i can't seem to find a way to make that work.
i contacted the developer, and he got back to me and said that it IS available... but i can't seem to get it to work.
Create repeat events in Jorte
as I can see on my device, it is available in Jorte only when using Google Calendar in Jorte, not with Jorte calendar (see Jorte options, selection of the calendar).
Then, I can't find a way to create a daily event with a date limit (e.g. at 10:00AM for 1/2 hour for the next 4 days), while this is possible when accessing directly to Google Calendar web site.

i see the option to REPEAT events, but not repeat until.

[Q] Samsung Calendar sync doesn't work with events from 50 years (or older) ago

I've searched the forums around for a mention of this bug, but I couldn't find anything specific to it. I found numerous Calendar bugs and Calendar Replacements, but nothing this specific, and I kind of like the Samsung Calendar, so here it goes.
I have a regular International Galaxy S. When syncing calendars from Google, if you have a Calendar that has an event that happens every year, but started longer than 50 years ago (for instance, Christmas, New Year, some holidays), that event won't show up in the Samsung Calendar app.
If I change one year, it shows. For instance, if I create a repeatable event on 1961, it will show when the phone syncs up. If I create a repeatable event on 1960 or prior to that, that and the subsequent instances of that event won't show up on the calendar.
Is that a known issue? I can't find any sort of options to enhance the amount of years the calendar syncs from Google. That's kinda annoying.
Thanks for the help.
just wondering, why the hell would you want to create a 50 year old event? just start from a few years ago.

This lol. You're hardly going to be looking back that long ago. It happens the same time every year too so there's no real need, is there?
That's besides the point. if I didn't have a use for it, I obviously wouldn't care about it.
For instance, I have a Formula One calendar that has Ayrton Senna's birthday as a event. He was born on 1960, so the event was created on 1960 and it's repeatable every year. It doesn't show up on Samsung's Calendar, since it happened more than 50 years ago, even tho it's repeatable every year.
I also have a Local Holidays and Commemorative Dates (not the one provided by Google) with descriptions and starting dates. The start date of that event (when the holiday or commemorative date was created) is the first instance of that event, and it repeats every year. It also doesn't show up.
still there with 2.3.5
Same problem here with 2.3.5 JVS.
All calendar entries with start date longer ago than 50 years are not synced or at least not displayed. Seems to be an known but not yet solved bug that is limited to Samsung or even i9000 ( see google homepage, support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=389f1b50b42f7901&hl=en ).
Would be perfekt if anybody had a solution. I sync my Outlook via MyPhoneExplorer and without Google calendar. I don't want to use google, scince there are business dates that are not allowed to be spread.
Yes, and I'd like to add that there is memory error in SGS calendar app Event uses too much memory, causing FC of calendar, and I only want to set up the anniversary of the planet Earth formation 4.000.000.000 years ago from the space dust
any help, please?

[Q] Moto Assist working with multiple calendars?

Since last update, Assist lets you choose more than one calendar to trigger meeting mode. In my phone, though, it only works for the main calendar.
I've already checked the requeriments for an event to trigger meeting:
is from a calendar visible on device
is from a calendar that you are the owner
has been accepted
is not deleted
is not cancelled
is not all day (all day event box checked) or duration < 24
Meetings where you’re marked as “Available” will not trigger meeting mode
(from https://motorola-global-portal.cust...swer_detail/a_id/94933/p/30,6720,8696#meeting)
My events respect all points in that list.
The only thing that bugged is the "is from a calendar that you are the owner" requirement. I realised all calendars I create are not "as mine" as the main calendar is... Even though I created it through google.com/calendar, in the settings all calendars (except the main one) have a "cancel subscription" option, like it isn't really mine. But that's so weird...
Anyone having the same problem?

Hi, I have the same problem here, I also noticed in my calender that the 'not default' ones I can also 'unsubscribe' to. Even when I create a new one, I can unsubscribe. So I'm thinking that is indeed the problem. Question is, how do we solve it. I've been searching the internet for a solution to make myself owner of the calender, whithout results. Anyone of you who knows how we can do this?
I'm having the same problem. I left a comment on the Play Store to see if that might elevate the issue. It's frustrating that it's been this way for almost a month now.
I'm having the same issue as well.. I opened a thread in the Motorola forums as well but still no resolution ...
https://forums.motorola.com/posts/386638fc4c
I called Motorola support and they suggested a hard reset (not sure what they think that will solve but whatever I tried it anyway because the dude insisted that might fix it...). Surprise, hard reset did nothing. Then the guy said the ONLY other solution he had was to do a factory reset... ughhh.
Ok. Fine.
Backed up all my stuff, factory reset. annnndddddd....
Nothing. Assist still doesn't trigger a meeting from any of my other calendars. I'm gonna give Moto a call again but I suspect they will be no help. I think we're probably gonna have to live without it until they actually listen and realize the feature is broken and update with a fix.
Has anybody else had any luck getting this to work with multiple calendars?
I did some troubleshooting tonight since I was also having the problem reported here. Turns out, I can only trigger Assist using events in the first calendar in each account. My accounts have multiple calendars (for different projects at work), but any events on those additional calendars are ignored regardless of the fact that I checked them off in the Assist settings for which calendars to use. For me, the solution was to put events that require silence into the first calendar of the account. Assist seems to treat that as the primary calendar; other calendars are seen as if they're not owned by the account.
Sent from my XT1053 using XDA Free mobile app
The latest version of Assist (2.3.15) seems to have solved this issue. Secondary calendars are working again for me now.

Google Home Integration With Google Calendars Is An Embaressment

After recently purchasing a couple of Google Home Minis I have realised that Google seem incapable of bringing their departments together to make the gadget work properly with Google Calendars. Its so embaressing as the Amazon Echo actually works better with Google Calendars .. go figure!! If anyone can offer third party integration suggestions I would be really grateful.
First thing I noticed was that if I asked for my appointments for today, tomorrow, January etc it completely ignores my all day events .... I'm in the UK and I found a workaround for this by setting the language in the Google Home app to English (United States), apparently the U.S.A get new software versions earlier, indeed after this tweak in settings the Google Assistant recognises and reads out all day events.
The above regional fix however does not offer a solution for adding an all day event. The Google assistant does not recognise ' hey google add a new all day event' it still insists on asking for a time and if you say 'all day' for the time, it does not accept - anyone have a workaround or solution for this?
One other very annoying ommission is lack of integration with Google Keep. If I access my calendar via web browser, Googe Keep is tightly integrated for lists and nots, yet the Google Home team who seem to lacking a single iota of common sense have completley ommitted the option to use Google Keep for notes, lists and shopping list. - can anyone offer a solution or workaround?
The last and equally as annoying is if I say for example 'hey google what are my appointments for January' the reply is something like 'you have 8 appointments in January, here are your first 3' - who at Google in their infinite wisdom decided that everyone on the planet will only need to hear their next 3 appointments? Actually beginning to think that the people driving Google Home do NOT have an single grain of common sense between them. - Anyone have a solution or work around?
There are some other gripes like when adding an apointment using voice I don't have the option of adding a location, which is very important quite often I find....
Apologies for long-winded post wanted to put it all out there in case anyone would like to share solutions, altertive solutions to Google Calendar or thoughts....
I second all you've said. No integration with G Suite calendars either. Had to return mine.
