Shared Calendars - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to get shared calendar function working on the desire, i can see my own gmail calendar and enteries but dont have a clue how to view someone elses shared calendar. Is this possible or must you add the other users account (Something which i dont want to do).

I got this working by sharing my calendar with the other person on Google Calendar - they can then see my appointments - though we both use Jorte on our Desires.

[Q] Sense Calendar Question

Quick question... I've just switched back to Sense from CM6, and I'm wondering if I am losing my mind.
Am I right in saying that it is NOT POSSIBLE to edit calendar entries using HTC calendar? That seems unbelievable to me, but so far the only options I can see are to create an entry or delete. There is no "edit" option. I'm 99% certain that the AOSP calendar has this.
Can someone please confirm?
Thanks,
Matt_TX
EDIT: Even more bizarre... I CAN edit entries created on my Exchange Calendar, but I CANNOT edit entries created on my Google Calendars. So weird!
My edit option seems to depend on where the entry comes from. If I add something striaght to the calendar I can edit it as I please. If it's something that sync'ed from lets say Facebook then I can not edit it. My work exchange also syncs and it all depends on what the event is and if it's something I originally made or not. All in all I think it depends on the type of even it is but I will also be watching this thread to see if someone has a little more info they can chime in with.
This is really very strange...
I can add, edit and delete apppointments on my Exchange calendar - regardless of where the entry was orignally made - Phone, OWA or Outlook.
I can ONLY add or delete (NO EDIT) appointments on my Google calendar(s) - regardless of where the entry was originally made - Phone or Web.
Anyone know why this is the case? AOSP calendar works just fine... Is this a bug in Sense?

can't add local calendar

Hello together,
to use caldav i wanted to add a local android native calender. Is there a trick or app to do that? I can only add a google calendar...
Thanks,
Nils
i'm interested too
That would be nice to be able to install a local calendar (or even two or three) because I already have calendar sync and don't need to upload my appointments to google...

[Q] Creating Google Calendar Private Events

Hi everyone,
I've been searching for an answer to this one for a while, but no one seems to have this issue.
On may old HTC magic, when I created a calendar event I could choose "More options" and set the event to private. With the one x, this option appears to be missing and all events are created as"default".
I am using the calendar app that comes with the one x (I would prefer to keep using this app if possible, I think this is the google calendar app with a sense skin). I only sync and display google calendar, but I also have hotmail accounts setup on the phone (only sync/display mail with these).
I can create the calendar event and then go to the web version and make it private but this kind of defeats the purpose of creating the events in the phone. I need to make some events private as I have others looking at the calendar to see when I am available but I don't want them to be able to see the details.
Has anyone seen a solution to this? I was really hoping that with the150odd people that have looked at this thread that someone might know of a solution.

[Q] Marking a Calendar Event as Private

Hey all,
All of my email and calendar settings are correct, and I am sync'd with the Exchange/ActiveSync for work. When trying to create a calendar invite it will show correctly in my Outlook client as well. The issue I am having is when creating a calendar invite on the phone itself - it doesn't give an option to mark it as private. After you've created the event and go to view it - it shows Privacy as "default". If you click "edit" on the event you don't seem to get the option to change it.
I know there are options for rooted phones, (I searched to the best of my ability) but wanted to see about a stock GS3 (you know how it is, work phone).
Any ideas or different calendar suggestions are more than welcome. Thank you for the help.

[Q] Business Calendar facebook synchronisation

Hi all,
I've been using Business Calendar for a while. It synchronises my gmail calendar and also my facebook events/birthdays. This is really useful because I don't need to put an event into my calendar after I've already accepted it.
Since switching to a custom ROM (JellyTime), Business Calendar does not seem to recognise my facebook account on the phone so I cannot get it to synchronise the facebook events. The instructions say that it should recognise any calendars on your phone but that does not happen.
Does anyone know how to get facebook events to synchronise with the calendar?
Thanks.
Any thoughts from anyone? Alternatively, does anyone know if you can get the Google calendar to sync with Facebook events?
Thanks.
Sent from my portable telephone.
From Facebook you can export events and birthdays as calendar links that can then be added to your Google calendar. They will then appear as additional calendars on your phone.
I forget exactly how to do it in Facebook, but I think you go to events, click on settings, and then you have the export option. Google it for more details.
Good luck!

Thanks Zamula - your way worked! Just one point of clarification, rather than exporting, you need to right click on the link and copy the address. You can then add it as a Google calendar under Other Calendars. In Business Calendar you can then add the calendars (1 for birthdays, 1 for events) to synchronise them. So far so good, the last thing is whether the calendars auto update. I'll be able to tell that when I'm invited to a new event!
