i searched the internet and couldn't find any solution..
is it possible to sync 2 (or more) calendars with my wm6.5 calendar? this can be 2 calendars from outlook (my primary calendar and an internet calendar) or 2 calendars from google calendar.
i don't care about the calendars getting merged or so. all calendars merged into one calendar is good enough!
thanks in advance and sorry if it was already posted before
Is it possible to sync multiple calendars/contacts? I would like to have my personal calendar and my group calendar and possibly another

Would it not be possible to have outlook on pc sync to one calendar and pocket oulook on the device to sync to another? That way you'd atleast have two. Then there's OggSync which you can use to sync to google calendar. Google it and you'll find it if you wanna try.
Anyways, there's my two cents, hope it's to some good
i have 3 PCs and 2 laptops and of course the X1. i want my calendar and contacts sync-ed among them all and are up to date.
1. Install Google Calendar Sync on all PCs and Laptops (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955)
2. Set phone to sync with Google (http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299)
3. One of the laptop is what i bring to work, it is set to GCalendar sync 2 ways. Changes to laptop and uploaded to Google Calendar.
One main work PC at home is sync 2 ways too.
A windows 7 PC is only for viewing when i do not want to switch back and forth between machines. For viewing only, GCalendar is sync one way (GCalendar to Outlook only).
X1 syncs 2 ways. Just know which machines you have set to sync 2 ways and do your changes there. If not, like in my case, if I do changes or updates to my Windows 7 machine's outlook calendar, they will not be reflected across all machines. It will be useful for things i wish to keep out of my work calendar.
Google's sync that they mention works on Exchange protocol syncs IMMEDIATELY. It is very fast so no meetings will be missed even if you set it 5 mins in advance.
Initial syncs caused some problems for me, multiple entries for yearly events like Birthday or weekly events. Manually exported them out from the work PC and as a PST with contacts and calendar choosing NOT to export duplicate, created new Outlook profile, reimported everything, same, DO NOT IMPORT duplicates option, let it sync once more and all's fine.
how can i set up my phone, so that it sync only in 1 way? is that possible?

I have 3 calenders in my Outlook 2007.
When I synchronize my mobile with activeSync I doesn't get the calenders on my mobile but only the standard calender in Outlook.
How can I sync. my multiple calenders to my Diamond?
No help?
me too finding the same difficulty, need to sync public folder calender with work?
any idea?
I've used Chapura software to do this
www.chapura.com
I'm on an Exchange Server and I know that only your default calendar will sync onto your mobile. I'm not 100% sure, but I think that it's the same for non-Exchange sync relationships as well.
I'm going to check out Chapura.
Myke...
You can do multiple outlook calendars, contact subfolders as well as exchange public calendars and contact folders. I've been doing it for a few years. A bit pricey, but worth it for some people. One time fee to have all of my company public contacts and calendars sync real time while I'm on the road.
As above, how do I use my HTC Dream to sync with my Outlook? Contacts, Calendar entries, Tasks and Notes?
I use "CompanionLink" works perfect.
Personal outlook on your home computer?
Yup, MS outlook on my home laptop.
The only way that I know of is to use a HERO or Rogers rom and the HTC Sync software. Every other solution that I've heard of is a 2 step sync from your outlook to google and then google to your phone.
You'll probably need to install the PCSCII.apk, since most devs remove it from their roms. get that here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4740940&postcount=13
and then download the HTC sync software from htc.com.
Also, if you use a rogers rom, you'll only get contacts to sync, using a hero rom will get you both contacts and calendar.
So the HTC sync software will only work with HTC Hero, am I right?
I'm using it on my G1 that's flashed with Mlign's 2.5.7 Hero Rom. I have not been able to make it work with non-hero roms. But, really I haven't tried too hard at that. I don't know what it needs from the Hero rom. I assume it's the HTC framework.
google Calendar sync works great for the calendar
Oh okay, anyone tried CompanionLink? Is it good?
Companionlink is a Sync through Google solution.
I see. Can it sync contacts and notes, calendar from Outlook?
I've never tried it, but it appears it would at least do Contacts and Calendar. But, if you're willing to sync through Google, I'm sure there a cheaper or even free solutions for that.

Yes it does, it allows you do do categories, outlook folders, alarms, date range, etc (companionLink)
If i'm willing to go through google, what is some of the free applications I can use? Simple sync entries i would need is contacts, calendar entries and notes.
Sorry, I don't know off the top of my head. When I was searching for this, I saw the google has an outlook plugin that will Sync the calendar. I also saw a different plugin that would sync Contacts. I'd start with googling outlook plugins.
good luck.
Companionlink now has a Sync over USB direct with outlook. I was excited and thought that I had finally found my answer. then I read:
----------------------------
Data we sync
* Contacts sync to the built-in address book on the phone
* Calendar events sync to a custom calendar app
* Tasks sync to a custom tasks app
* Notes sync to a custom notes app
Our custom Calendar app shows events in Day view only. Month view and other scheduling options are coming. Recurring events and exceptions are supported. Adding and editing recurring events must be done on the PC.
Our custom Tasks and Notes apps support categories, sort, and search functionality.
----------------------------
Sigh, it doesn't use the built in calendar database, so it won't work with any calendar widget. So close, but still no cigar. Oh well, maybe they'll wise up and just be a sync provider.
1. CompanionLink (http://www.companionlink.com/androidusb/index.html)
2. Mark/Space (http://www.markspace.com/products/android/missing-sync-android.html)
3. Various Google Cloud <-> Outlook solutions (Paid or free, Google them)
4. HTC Sync from some HTC-specific ROMS (e.g. Hero)
Take note that since Android has no built-in notes and tasks applications, nor a standardized database structure for them, those supporting and plan-to-support notes/tasks are/will be syncing to some custom notes/tasks apps.
The Companion's solution even syncs to a custom Calendar app.

Yeah, that was the disappointing part. I don't think a custom calendar app is a good idea.
Not sure if you're willing to pay anything, but roadsync syncs calendar, contacts and e-mail. Even has a calendar widget. I think it's like $25 now (I got in early and only had to pay $10). works well for me though.
how about syncing notes from outlook? is there one that can do that?
hi,
I just got HD7 and have Windows 7 x64 with Outlook 2010 32-bit installed.
All my contacts, tasks and calendar are organised using outlook and have elaborate Categories to manage and separate them.
What is the best way to sync ALL (contacts, tasks, calendar) including categories?
Of course, I am looking at a 2-way sync so changes made on the phone are updated in Outlook.
I used companionlink and it moves category data to "Notes" field plus there is no sync for tasks.
Is there a solution?
I am not liking that HD7 cannot sync with Outlook directly.
I was in the same situation as you. I installed the Hotmail Sync for Outlook, synced my email, calendar and contacts to my hotmail account, and watched them populate my phone. Regarding tasks, there's no sync at the moment, but what I do is copy and paste the day's tasks into a spreadsheet synced via Windows Live Mesh to Skydrive, and download it from there onto my phone each morning. I then use the filters to show me each category, and when I get home I update my tasks in Outlook from the notes I've made in the spreadsheet. Works for me until task syncing comes along.
Alternatively, if you don't use Start Date or Repeating Tasks, you could use Remember the Milk.
Neither is ideal but is a potential stopgap.
I think one of the add-on functionality for the wp7 update should include syncing contacts, calendars and tasks because a lot of users trying to switch phones (like myself and you guys) could find it very annoying to sync contacts from our old phone.
I was using the original HTC Touch HD and I thought it would be the easiest thing syncing contacts but noooo. I ended up syncing to outlook first then uploading to my windows live account and then all my contacts popped up on my phone after like 3hrs because I have about 500+ contacts.
I was looking for a good App which would sync with Outlook (Contacts and Calendar, at least). I found two good candidates in the market, Android Sync Manager and MyPhoneExplorer. The former looks to also sync other items, which would also be nice to have.
Anybody have any experience with either of these, or any other apps which will sync to PC, that work on the gTab (running Vegan 1.5.1)?
Since you have to have a google account to use the market, why not use your google calendar and google calendar sync?
Install the software on your desktop to sync your outlook calendar to google calendar and then use whatever app you want on your gtablet to view and edit the google calendar. Changes are synced back to your outlook via the google calendar sync application.
Well, I suppose you have a point, that should work for the basics.
But it seems Android Sync Manager can sync other things, like files, etc.

The problem with that for some of us is that Google has not bothered to update their sync tool to work with 64-bit Outlook 2010.
Real shame too because the 3rd party apps for it suck unless you want to spend too much money for what you get.

Well why you can't use email client which is part of the os to sync with outlook email and calendar client? It works really well with my corporate 2003 client.

The built in email app on Android won't sync with Outlook, however, you can duplicate the connection that Outlook is making. That being said, many companies won't let you connect to their email system for various reasons, which forces you to manually sync to your desktop version of Outlook. Which, of course, defeats the purpose for which they originally forbade you.

Well, I have POP mail for my personal email, so while the built in will get the email fine, it will not get my contacts nor my calendar, which are all stored locally on my PC in Outlook.
So I looked into the Google apps. Unless I'm missing something, it appears you can sync email and calendar, but that their sync contacts is just for business users. Is that right?
Separate sync profiles? Google sync + EAS
It is 2015, and I have finally switched over from the Nokia 808 to the Sony Xperia Z3C. My first Android. I have a question...
Does Android keep sync profiles separate, like Symbian S^3/Belle and iOS?
For example, if I sync my Nokia's contacts and calendar with my personal Outlook via USB, and then add a an Exchange ActiveSync account to synchronize my corporate email, contacts and calendar, both Nokia and iOS will display the calendar information together but my personal events will not bleed over to my Exchange calendar, and vice versa. Does Android behave the same way?
I am hesitant to give it a try, because it is damn near impossible to clean up personal calendar events on my work Exchange account, and work calendar events on my personal Outlook at home.
Same question if I do a Google Sync plus EAS. Because in the near future I will be migrating everything from local PC Outlook to Google. Will Android keep Google Sync contacts and calendar separate from EAS contacts and calendar, but display them together. Thanks.
