Hi,
I have a problem with my task app syncing with outlook (exchange) account. When I create a task in outlook, it shows up on the phone without any issues and vice versa. But if I change the task, like snooze the reminder, dismiss reminder or change the reminder date/time on the phone or outlook it doesnt sync to the other device.
The calendar however works without any problem for changes or reminder snooze/dismiss. any pointer to fix this?
cheers

Hi dear developers,
Do you know if its possible to make pOutlook contacts that have birthdays filled to have it assingned as an all day event in Calendar ???
Unfortunally i have to Sync my Calendar/Tasks with work PC outlook and Contacts with my Home PC outlook so i guess i could not use the sync trick to do this.
I have a terrible memory for birthdays (once i have forget mine ) and i could not use that great birthday today plugin with TF3D...
Is it possible to do it programmatically?
Thanks for the help.

Well I sync my Diamond with Outlook and I don`t have any problem with that ... all birthday`s are displayed as all day events on Diamond
All my birthdays are displayed as all day events as well...! Only annoying thing is, every time Outlook adds an alarm reminder to the newly added birthdays. When I forget to delete them, I will be remindered 15 minutes before midnight... I already cleared the Default Reminder option.
Has everybody a solutuoin for this problem? I have the same problem as CreativeBR. When i sync my outlook calendar with active sync, i have no birthdays.
you must sync the contacts
hi biersoeldner,
in order to get the all day events synced to your phone (via activesync) you have to sync your contacts and not only the calendar. the birthdays are coming out of the contact entries and are only displayed in your outlook.
I have synced (in activesync) the contacts and the calendar. Now i have checked the details of the contacts and there are no birthdays.
Some birthdays I have written direct in the calendra an they also not in my xda. I use Outlook 2007 an HTC ROM-Version: 1.93.407.1 GER.
Currently I have checkt birthday, which were in the near future and lock they are there. I belive I shoud check the differenz between this persons!
thx for the answer!
I put birthdays into the calendar as standard all-days events, repeating on the same day every year (and set an alarm of 5 days out to remember to buy that card/present!). You don't touch the contact entries then. Will happily sync between PC outlook and mobile outlook then.
I had found a workaround for my problem, if i delete the series of appointments and i create it again, than is the appointment on the pda calendra. Could someone explain me this?
None of this could help me because i need to sync Calendar/Tasks with the work outlook and it has so many business contacts (that i dont want in my personal mobile).
Thats why i cant send my personal contact birthdays to outlook and receive the all day events via calendar.
That free birthday today plugin fits nicely to what i need but i cant have it running with TF3D.
Maybe SecondToday app could help me... But run it just for one today plugin 8(
since someone mentioned birthday problems in calendar...
does anyone of you have the problem when synchronizing the device...
birthdays are synced, they r showed in the device, but they will disappear in outlook... but if you do a search it's there, it just won't show up in the calendar view...
i currently need to re-enter my contacts b-day to make it visible again in outlook...
anyone having the same problem too???
The only way I've ever been able to reliably add birthdays is add a new recurring event, starting on the year of birth. Then each subsequent event has a number in brackets indicating the age that year.
Contacts, plug-ins, any other way just didn't seem to work for me.
well...
My pc sync very well with pda all contacts and birthdays... but, the problem is that birthday, doesn't show in tf3d! What can I do? there is any tweak for this problem?
Hello,
Can anyone tell me how you use the agenda birthday reminder with HTC Diamond ? I've just bought the phone and sync it with mail2web (outlook exchange service on Internet). The phone is not reminding me birthdays which is annoying me...
Before, I was using TYNT II with Spb Diary plugin which was great ! It was showing the coming birthdays and also ringing the D-day.
I read that other Diamond users had also this kind of issue. To solve it they manage birthday's on Outlook contact (on their computer) to generate entire day event and then sync it with their phone.
Do you know another way to get this reminder work ?
Thank you
i HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM... HOW CAN i USE BIRTH REMINDER ON TOUCH FLO.
ANY BODY KNOW???
LEO
It seems that no one else has this kind of problem....
i do, but i haven't any solutions for this ****ty bug
Finally I've manually created reminders in the calendar...
I have all the birthday in the Outlook (like meeting)
and all ok after sync the Phone with the Outlook (to outlook exchange server at work via the Internet)
Just open the Outlook and add new Item in the Calender , cycle it evey year as u add the item (Press on the Recurrence button), that all ...
I have added birthdays to my contacts in outlook. Is there away to make those show up on the today screen? its kinda odd the calender is only for meetings or perhaps i am missing something here.
I assume i could add birthdays by hand in outlook but that kinda defeats the idea when you can have it all in the contact info.
Regards
I use Birthdays 1.2.10, so I don't need to touch the calendar.
http://pda.jasnapaka.com/birthdays/
I know Birthdays 1.2.10 but this programm don't work with manila3d
becaus all today pugins don't work with manila3d
The funniest thing
In also seem to have a birthday related problem.
I bought my diamond several months ago and synced it with my compu (outlook 2007). I just yet noticed it didn't sync all my birthday info. (The info is in he contacts, the birthdays just aren't coming up in my calender, neither on my compu nor on my phone ).
Is there a way to 'update' the calender in such way all birthdays come back to my calender?
Thanks in advance!
Hi all,
If you enter the birthday in outlook contacts, normally a all day event will be created in outlook. please check if this is ok. finally i have turn off the reminders for this events, because the alarm will go on at 11.45 pm by default. This all day events appears on my home sreen in TF3D.

maybe U can to use a software like mToday and to have 2 Today profiles ... one with manila and other with regular WinMo plugins

I think you need to synchronise it with outlook on your pc for it to take effect. Outlook on the phone isn't smart enough to figure it out by itself apparently, but I've just synched it with my pc, it's showing up in the calendar in outlook and in the calendar on the phone.
Is it possible that there is no any simple WM application to check contacts evey day for birthdays.
Pocket PC should be smarter than some "smartphones"
Hi to everybody.
This is my first post to this awesome forum. Without this forum and / or community, I think my HTC Diamond would be in the bin somewhere... but as we have this wonderful thing here I use it and with great feeling.
So my huge respect to everybody who have contributed their knowledge to public use.
BUT - as always when messing around with tweaks and firmware etc.. some bugs will occure.
at the momnet i have slight problem with reminders. I have surfed around net and this forum to find answer but no result so far.
many of the Diamond users have a problem, when reminder sounds dissapear whtn switching profiles. this is not the case at the moment.
when I create new appointment in my phone - i will get proper reminder sound with popup window describing event.
when appointment was created in Outlook and transfered to the phone via sync, I have no reminder sound, no popup window. only when I turn my phone screen active i can se open calendar - wich indicates that I have appointment coming.
when I edit this appointment (created in Outlook) in my phone, example - setting a new reminder time, there is no change in behaviour. still I get opened calendar and no reminder sound or popup calendar.
At the same time reminder in my Outlook in PC work just fine.
Im using Second today and SPB Diary for calendar app.
P.S. tried also omnisoft reminder fix:

Any Ideas people?

check in outlook
i had this problem - with a silly solution. i checked my outlook calendar entry, and there i did not set reminder. if you are getting appointment from outlook, make sure you have set a reminder in outlook (like 15 mins before or 30 mins before). it will then work fine.
hope this solves.
gl!
thanks for the reply, unfortunately no help.
just created two apointments with different times.
Appointment A - created in outlook
Appointment B - created in phone.
synchronized.
Both appointments (A and B) show reminder (5 min) in outlook and in phone.
When reminder time occures:
Appointment A - no sound, When swiching phone screen on - calendar is open on screen.
Appointment B - reminder works just fine.
I had another test with Tasks:
created two taks and synced with outlook.
Task created in Outlook - Outlook reminder ok. Phone reminder ok.
Task created in Phone - Outlook reminder ok. Phone reminder ok.
so with tasks its good.

Hi again,
Now I decided to try maybe something went wrong with installations and reinstalled everything again in my phone starting from Hard SPL. Cleared and formatted Storage. Still the same problem.
Although there is another isssue that might be connected with this mess.
BTW - Im using Funambol client (tried different versions) to sync calendar with outlook. I have done this a long time now and never before had this kind of reminder problems.
The issue Im talking about is - there is no way I can sync calendar or tasks with MS ActiveSync. It just freezes on "looking of changes". Other things sync fine - contacts and rest of the data in different programs (MS money, SPB wallet etc...). Reinstalled Activesync on PC, compacted outlook file, restored calendar from server. Calendar sync with cable still hangs, with Funambol the outlook syncs like a charm.
Today after installing everything, I tried the calendar sync after each component installation no luck. Even tried change data type when syncing (vCalendar, SIF).
Would the next step is to try different ROMs?
I would suggest that the next step is to reinstall outlook on your pc. Or, as a minimum, start again with a brand new outlook pst file and try to get activesync working. If you get it working you can then copy your data from the old file to the new one.
did following:
uninstalled A.Z.T.O.R ROM and installed XBMOD v2.00 instead, additionally XBMOD manila 1.8.1. fix.
now Active sync works fine. Even calendar with reminders. This is for cable sync.
Funambol site is having some maintenance, so I can´t test it for now. when its up again, I will post result here.
so I believe I narrowed it down:
IT MUST BE FUNAMBOL ISSUE.
as I reinstalled everything that can be installed and tried lot of different possibilities I concluded that is must be funambol that messes things up:
1. change of ROM doesnt help
2. change of Manila doesnt help
3. using standard or modified Roms makes no differents
4. reminders synced with Active Sync via Cable works fine on both: PC and Phone
5. reminder for Tasks synced via funambol works fine
6. calendar reminder created in Phone, synced to outlook via funambol works fine on both: PC and Phone.
7. calendar reminder created in outlook and synced to phone via funambol doesn't work - only calendar pops open when there is reminder time.
8. when syncing, tried SIF and vCard. no difference.
And this is too bad. I was so happy with funambol.
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.
Helo, i use s3 mini for 2 weeks so far and i found very odd behavior in google calendar S planer, version 4.1.2-I8190XXAMG4.
When i create an event WITHOUT reminder and save it, after syncing calendar S planer it automaticly add me an reminder and i have to delite it. Its very annoying especially becouse am not online all time so when i connect and sync it add me reminder.
Is there any way to avoid this problem?
Thanks
