I have the sync checked and everything, but when I go the google calender through my computer it is blank. Any suggestions for why it isn't working. It problem something stupid I haven't done.
Underneath the date where it says calendar, did you choose your acount instead of my calendar? Sorry if that seems insulting, we just have to rule out the obvious first.
I have both checked. And don't worry about insulting me. Like I said, it is probably something stupid.
Was sync ever working? What changes have you made to your phone (e.g. new firmware)?
Your settings seem fine.

No special rom or anything and synchas never worked. I tried unchecking and checking the thing again. Didn't work. What its weird is that the info shows up on the launcher pro + calender widget. It seems to be missing some events though.
As I understand this - your calendar is displaying correctly on the phone, but not on your computer?
When you create a new calendar entry on the phone, are you making sure that it is placing it in the google calendar and not "my calendar" - you have to change this as "my calendar" is the default and does not sync to google calendars.
So my calendar will not sync with my google calendar? I have to do it with each event manually? I thought that if the syncing was set up to sync with my google calendar, that it would.... sync with it. Or does it only work one way? Google calendar to my calendar, but not the other way around?
It sounds like you might not have background and auto sync enabled, do you know if you do?
In the calendar app, as mentioned before, make sure you're selecting "[email protected]" rather than My Calendar (its annoying to me, seems like they should sync by default without my input, but at least that part is simple enough for me to get over it).
Then, check out your settings... Apps >> Settings >> Accounts and sync
Do you have Background data and Auto-sync checked? these are crucial, though i think Auto-sync is what should fix this.
Then select your gmail account just below that. Make sure everything is checked. Calendar could be unchecked by default, thus not syncing. I can't remember what's checked out of the box.
Then, I suggest adding the Power Control widget to one of your home screens (I don't know if this is installed by default, I've downloaded and removed too much to remember it all ). The 4th box is the Auto-sync toggle. I need my battery to last all day, so I have this off until I can actually use the stuff, like email, etc.
You can either leave it on at all times and deal with minor battery loss (i think it's minor, tomorrow I'm testing how much battery it will consume leaving on). Or you can toggle it as needed like i do, and when on, it will sync up the calendar, along with everything else. This may not solve your problem, but it sounds reasonable to me. I might be in the same boat as you if I hadn't read a lifehacker article about the Power Control widget and syncing my google stuff.
Let us know how it goes
I have exactly the same problem and I have been trying to fix it all week!
Seems everything is right but nothing will sync, it says it has but my calender is nowhere to be seen, can anybody help I have even factory reset to try again today...

Rereading some of this.... It seems like you are seeing Google events on teh phone, but phone events are not showing up in Google.
Probably the issue is the events are created on the phone (by default) in "my calendar" not in the google calendar. 2.2 fixes this, but 2.1 (the stock build and the recent update) make all entries go into "my calendar" by default. You can change this via a drop down, but you have to do it for every calendar entry you create on the phone.
ever since i upgraded to 2.2.1 (JPY) my mails in the e-mail application (not the google one) stopped being synchronized automatically, no matter what i set as mail checking interval there. i have tried without security settings and with "SSL (accept all certificates)". 3 accounts, all standard IMAP accounts (no exchange), fetching mail from them manually is working just fine.
when i watch "Running Services" for some time i see an email fetch background task appear and disappear every now and then.
i had stock 2.1 rom before and there it was working just fine.
synchronization is also turned on, although at least in 2.1 this wasn't necessary for automatic mail fetching to work, so i think it isn't related.
any ideas?
thanks already.
Same thing happened to me
I would really appreciate if someone would have a solution
Tonight my Google calendar events in every calendar bar the default calendar stopped appearing in the phone. I can still see them in Google calendar via the web browser but they no longer appear in the calendar app. I've checked all the settings within calendar and the various Google calendars still appear there and are ticked to sync and show in the app but events from other calendars do not. Any ideas?
I had the same problem before. I fixed it by following the instructions from the quote below. This is from the google mobile help forum posted by BSteck. You should backup your default (on the phone) calendar before doing this.
Don't know if this is the best way to solve the problem, but this has worked for me.
On my HTC Phone (running Android 2.2), I went to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Running > Calendar Storage. I then pushed "Clear Data" and then "Force Stop" (because I wanted it to reload).
The phone paused for a brief moment when returning to Home and then the calendar was syncing to my gmail calendars. I figure that as long as all your information is backed up at gcal, you should be fine. Good luck!

Thanks. That worked.
No problem =]
Dunno why this happens but at least this fixes the issue. Annoying when you don't have calendars showing up.
Possible problem: s planner won't sync properly with gmail calendar anymore, in a PECULIAR way. It downloads the calendars just fine, but when I go to add an event on my phone a message pops up saying that it "can't sync with gmail calendar," and that I need a gmail account. I then go to settings-->accounts-->sync, and it starts to sync, but then the sync circle freezes on screen (doesn't seem to finish). it appears to be a oneway problem from phone to gmail.
btw running cassie xlite with franco kernel (don't know if an app was removed that could cause this).
edit: actually it still works..just whenever I go to add an event the app claims it can't sync with gmail. strange.
I have no isuue to sync
Yes one limitation there, there is no reminder setting applies on server.
Hi everybody,
I really like the Motorola stock email app on the Atrix HD.
However, I can't seem to find a way to show all my inbox emails (or all emails in other folders).
The most it goes is a month from today. When I go into the settings for the sync settings, the more that I can set is one month. If I choose "automatic" it reverts to "three days".
In other words, is there a way to show all the emails in any given folder? In the GMail app, that is not a problem.
Thanks for any hint!
