Hi all. I am going to find a Calendar app to sync with sharepoint calendar as the process to sync it with gmail calendar is too convoluted.
Does anyone know of something that can do this?

might try CalWidget as it allows you to specify which calendars to sync with
Thanks, does this require the calendar to already be connected to the device in some way? Android doesn't seem to natively support connecting to a sharepoint calendar, don't know if its ASP related or nobody has made one for HTTP.

Hi all.
I'm looking for a little advice.
I currently use Outlook 2003 at work along side HTC Sync (HS) to sync my calendar entries to my Desire.
Is it possible to sync (only) the HS entries on my phone to a specific Google calendar? Ideally I'd like to sync the HS items into an online Google calendar just for work so I can see it online when I don't have my phone.
Happy to use an app if that's the only way...
By the way I can't use the Google Sync app for a couple of reasons; my company regards it as a security risk and it doesn't allow you to select the specific google calendar that you sync to - at least not as far as I know.
Thanks in advance.
Setting => Account & Sync => Add An Gmail Account => Sync Calendar
if u can't use this , there is a plugin for outlook that allows u to sync your outlook calendar & contacts , with Your Google Calendar & contacts ( if that's of any help ) , it's quite easy to find if u google it ...

Thanks Skywalker1726, but that's not quite what I meant.
My fault should have been clearer. I already have my phone set up for my google account but I have several calendars in that account.
As far as I can see I can't select a particular calendar to sync my Outlook items to. It looks like only Google calendar items can be changed.
I don't suppose you know the name of the outlook plugin? I tried googling for it and came across way too many dead beat apps.
Just to repeat I'm looking for a way (or a phone app) that allows my to select a specific google calendar for the items I have synced to my phone using HTC Sync.
Here is the link , Hope that helps !
Quite good but not quite right...

Thanks for the link and the suggestion.
unfortunately, it's "too similar" to the Google Sync tool and therefore my company think it's a security threat (I know there are worse things out there but go figure )
I suspect that I need something that works on my phone and allows me to select different calendars to sync back to.
Bump - any suggestions...?
Any suggestions?

If I'm understanding correctly you want your Outlook calendar to be synced "to the cloud" (in this case Google) which you can then access from your phone (or online when you don't have your phone).
I had a look and can't find any apps that will copy your phone calendar to a Google calendar. As you are using Outlook 2003 and can't use Google sync your options are a bit limited.
If your company uses Microsoft Exchange then you should already have remote access to your email / calendar on the web and you can also connect your Desire to this using the built in HTC calendar app. Your IT person should be able to get you set up fairly easily.
The only other solution I know of is to use a third party sync program - outlook 2003 doesn't support saving calendars in ical format (which you could have used as a manual workaround).
Sorry not to be more help...
Fair enough. Thanks for trying. Unfortunately my company are quite backward about their use if IT so pretty much any sync app or Exchange integration is out.

I am using gSyncIt. Not free, but it does the job between Google and Outlook. A lot of option to customize the sync, including several calendars.
Not sure what method it uses to sync, so maybe not working for you. But I know my company IT is as well in "stone age" and blocks nearly everything. But gSyncIt works.

How to?
If I choose to install a ROM without Sense I can't able to sync contacts and calendar events with Outlook.
I've a lot of contacts and also a lot of calendar events so this kind of ROM is not usable for me, unfortunately.
I tried android sync but it doesn't work as good as expected... maybe in the future it'll be better.
How do you do?
wrong section but it think it should work......

About section maybe you're right but it's where I found as many as non-sense roms.
What do you think it should work?
IS SHOULD, anyone?
Right, HTC Sync performs the Outlook<->Android contact/calendar sync and this is not available on non-Sense ROMs.
I don't know of a good free contact sync application for Outlook, but Google Calendar Sync will synchronise the calendar between Google and Outlook.
I've noticed that certain "advanced" recurring appointments that can't normally be entered in to Google calendar (e.g. "last day of month") will synchronise with Google Calendar and look fine, but then will _not_ synchronise correctly to the Android Calendar -- it ends up showing the recurring appointment on every day.
Simpler recurring appointments (e.g. "every Friday") work fine.
Personally, I'm just wondering what to do about these issues myself. I'd like to move to Google Calendar / Contacts, but the lack of advanced recurrences is a limitation for me.
I'm also looking at moving from Outlook to Thunderbird/Lightning, which have plugins for Google calendar and Google contact sync. Neither seems perfect though and Lightning still sees the issue with advanced recurrences. Perhaps it's an issue with Google Calendar instead of the Android Calendar / Lightning.
I can't use Thunderbird... but only Outlook because I use it for my job. Also I use a lot calendar (2 or 3 appointments/day) and have >1k contacts growing day by day for my job..
I think all other ways to do sync are less nice/suitable than HTC Sync software...
Do all other devices (non-HTC) has sync problems?? How they do??
Is possible to add Sense's sync features to non-sense roms?
up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also have a android ROM without HTC Sense and noticed the problem getting the calendar to sync. Is it possible to install just HTC Sense, or do i have to flash to a ROM with Sense on it?
another way would be desire funambol client <-> funambol server <-> whatever (kde,outlook,...)
Hello, I am wondering how well the Calendar on WM7 will sync with Google calendar... Like will WM7 be able to sync the secondary calendars and be able to properly display them in their correct color on the phone like how Android works?
Also will you be able to make new appointments on the secondary calendars?
Thanks for your help!
Windows Phone 7 currently does not sync secondary calendars from your Google account. Only the primary calendar is synced to the device. Hopefully this changes in the future.

Thanks for the info!
hopefully that does change ... google cal is how my family stays organized ...
you can't just go to the m.google.com/sync and sign in to specify what cals you want it to sync like you do with other phones?
I know this is not so much a samsung question, but can anyone recommend a good email program that can sync with calendar using any of the *DAV protocols? I am using k-9 and love it, but I don't think I can sync a contact list or calendar with it.
Hi
Does anyone know if there is an app or software for the task I need to do. I have a Samsung s3 mini I use the calender app on it to keep a track of my rota, I would like to synch this calendar with the outlook calendar on my computer and the synch this with calendar on my nexus 7 is this possible. I'm currently trialling my phone explorer but it is duplicating all my entries and I can't solve the issue, so wondered if there is any other way. Don't really want to use the Google calendar.
might be way to go
Has anyone had any dealings with jorte calender, this looks an easier way for what I want, can load it on tablet and phone then synch them using there cloud system just won't have a copy in outlook, but its not end of world.

There is a way to sync your outlook calendar, but this would be way easier. Not an app but a program for your computer
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gappssync.
Just sync your current calendar with your google one(Should probably be like that already) then add whatever new events and stuff from google calendar or outlook rather than any other app you may use.
