Calendar sync issue - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Since my unlocked note 9 updated to pie I have been unable to get appointments I make on the phone to show up on my tablet. On both devices I am only using my Google calendar. Appointments I made before the update synced with my tablet with no issues. I also found out then when I invite somebody to an appointment, that person never receives the email with the invitation event the calendar says the invitation was sent. This also worked fine before the update to pie. Is there a fix for these issues?

Do you have more than one Email account setup on your phone/tablet?

No. Just my gmail account.

Email Client/Default Calendar?

Hello all,
When I receive a meeting invite via my Google mail client on my D3 it comes in formatted differently than my Google mail client on my laptop. I do not get the option to accept the meeting invite to my calendar, specifically Yes, No, Maybe. Is there anything I can do to get this functionality back in the mail client for the D3?
Second if I download the .ICS file that accompanies the meeting invite, and try to apply it to my calendar, it defaults to the phone's calendar rather than my Google calendar. Is there anyway to change this so that the Google calendar is always the default?
Thanks,
Steve

Sync Failure

Are any of you experiencing sync failures of your various accounts?
My gmail and google contacts usually sync correctly, but I have had a sync failure a couple times.
My Yahoo email account is through the native email app. It often syncs when it's supposed to, but is experiencing a number of sync errors where it just hangs up during the sync process, and then fails.
My office email account is through the Exchange Active Sync. It includes email, calendar and contacts. The calendar and contacts sync when they're supposed to, sometimes. The email has not synced since yesterday. It gets hung up when syncing and then fails.
It's Monday afternoon, now, and I've had the phone since Friday afternoon. Didn't start noticing these sync failures until late yesterday.
I've tried restarting the phone. That didn't help.
Thoughts or advice would be appreciated.
Any help on this would really be appreciated. I'm stumped.
Yesterday afternoon, I removed my Exchange account and then re-installed. All worked perfectly until a couple hours ago.
Upon more careful attention, it appears that what's going on is that all parts of the Exchange account work properly except the email Inbox. Calendar and Contacts sync. Outgoing email syncs. But the Mail sync hangs-up with the turning circle and the Inbox will not sync.
I am having exactly the same problem on two different HTC One. Everything syncs fine except E-Mail. The only way to solve this is to remove the exchange account and add a new one. This happens when your Dataline is weak and switches around nothing-GPRS-Edge-3G or Wifi.

Try this: In Exchange General Settings set mail-size limit to max and sync-timerange to all. This setting is now working for over 3 days.

[Q] Gmail App - Calendar Invites show as blank emails

I've read about this online but most of the posts are from two years ago. Is this still a problem? I got a calendar invite in my email today (which admittedly I don't get often) and on my phone, it just shows as a blank email sent to various people. No text about an event being on this date at this time, no attachments, no nothing. Just a blank email. When I log in to my Gmail on my computer, I see the event details just fine.
What am I missing here? Apparently my calendar is set to automatically add events from my Gmail to my calendar, but shouldn't it at least show that it was an event and was automatically added? I turned the setting off and it is still showing the event as blank as well.
I see the same on my X when sending myself invites from my work Iphone's Exchange account.
I've not found away around it.
I have the same issue. I really need this feature as I get multiple invites everyday. It seems to be an issue only with the new gmail android app. The invite shows up fine on gmail.com.

Gmail emails notification not showing as email comes in?

My Nexus 6 gmail emails are not showing as they come in. The account is synced but I am having to pull down in the inbox to get it to refresh and get emails. This is causing me to get emails late. Is this a lollipop problem??
Tried deleting the gmail account in Nexus 6 and reading the account with same results.
I am testing now in my ONe Plus One phone which is on kitkat with no issues and all emails coming in on time and showing notifications.
Exactly same problem I'm also facing..

Did you at any point install Inbox and used it to turn off notification from gmail?
Over the last few days, I've been having sporadic problems with inbox as well.
Easiest/best solution is to enable IMAP and SMTP on your gmail account, and use k9mail instead of gmail application.
I had uninstalled inbox but just reinstalled and gmail notifications are on. Uninstalled inbox again and only using gmail. Using my OPO till figure out issue. Can not be missing emails.
Thanks,

Exchange account issues

Ever since lollipop came out, i have been having lots of issues syncing my exchange account to my Nexus 6 (same issue on my Nexus 5). The account will add and sync my email, contacts and calendar. After a short period of time (within a couple of days or hours), i will get an authentication error pop up under notifications. Although emails will continue to sync, all of the synced contacts will disappear from the phone. This is very frustrating and i have not had these issues with other android devices, only my nexus devices. I am hoping someone can help me out here.
Go into accounts, choose exchange account, then sync contacts
