It does. My Exchange calendar syncs with my stock Nexus calendar just fine.
If you're getting the error where your calendar keeps crashing, go into apps and delete all calendar data and have it resync again. This resolved my crashing calendar issue.
Thanks bro... my problem is that my calendar does not even show as available... only google's.
Kinda frustrated...

This may seem obvious but make sure your Exchange account on your phone is set to sync the calendar.
You can also try removing your Exchange account and re-adding it to your phone.
Do you know for sure that your Exchange server/administrator allows syncing calendar with mobile phones?
Hi... all that you said i tried before. No sucess.
And yes it does allow as with touchdown it works.
Damn...

didn't want to start a new thread, so i'm resurrecting this one.
I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus (running the latest release stock 4.0.4 IMM76I) and i'm having mixed results with ICS Stock calendar sycn. i've read (and posted similar feedback) on the Google forums discussing this "bug"
my setup: i have 3 exchange accounts - work (2010), family (Office365/2010) and personal (2007) - set to push email, contacts and calendar. contacts and mail works flawlessly for all three accounts. calendar sync works flawlessly for family and personal accounts. the calendar on the work account is where i'm having problems. it syncs some event and consistently excludes the several single and recurring events. I’m a program manager and rely HEAVILY on my calendar to manage my various assigned projects.
i've followed all the suggestions: clear data from calendar storage, delete and re-add the account, don't use the stock calendar widget when setting up the account (that worked for about 1 week) but still no luck with the work calendar. if i open one of the excluded events via the outlook client, make a minor change (e.g., reminder time) and then save the event, it will sync to phone, then after that a duplicate entry appears, then a triplicate entry, then it quadruples. Basically, it adds the same entry on the phone for each sync/refresh. on my outlook calendar on the pc it shows only 1 event. if i add a "test event" via the outlook client/phone, it will sync to the phone/client as a single entry, but at the next refresh, the phone entries follow the same pattern as above.
i installed a trial version of Touchdown and the work calendar syncs perfectly no issues at all. i also have a lumia 900 (wife won it at work and didn't want it) and it syncs without issue. i have a Nexus One and HTC Sensation and they sync fine, granted both are using Gingerbread. IT has told me there are no issues with my account; the fact that Touchdown and the Lumia work seems to supports my account is ok. [FONT="]
since i need my calendar for work, i purchased Moxier Mail (and use it just for calendar sync) because it's closest to the ICS stock layout. it's very frustrating that i have to cobble together software to get basic functionality to work on my GNex. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks in advance to anyone who offers suggestions.

I'm getting mighty confused by these multiple calendars that have appeared on my device and getting them to sync with my Google calendar.
Here's my set up. I have all contacts and calendars on my Google account before I started. I set up my Desire to sync with them using Google account.
All seemed fine but I found the Gmail app on Desire pretty limiting so I set up an Exchange activesync account linked to my gmail account for my mail (always worked well on my HD) and set it to sync calendar and contacts too. I then disabled all the syncing through the google account to avoid complications.
Unfortunately the exchange account doesn't seem to be configured for push and has no option to change this but that's not why I'm here.
Coming from WM, I'm used to having one calendar that is in sync between Outlook on PC, Google calendar and mobile device.
When I co to calendars on my Desire now I have no less than 4:
My Calendar
xxx @ gmail.com
Exchange
PC Sync
What's going on here? Which is which? So far HTC Sync connects but will not swap any contacts or calendar items with device and vice versa. Nor do appointments I add to the device show up on Google Calendar.
I suspect that this is because these different profiles seem to be associated with one platform - outlook / google / desire - or another.
Can anyone shed any light?
Many thanks, M1.
For anyone else trying to work this out there is a useful (bit old) thread here:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google Mobile/thread?tid=6d1605a796be89fd&hl=en
It seems you need to be careful which calendar you add entries too if you want them to sync with cloud mail - I unticked the box next to My Calendar so now entries I add on the Desire default to the google account calendar and sync as expected.
Now have to get to grips with the PC Sync calendar and work out why none of my events and contacts are syncing with out look. Sigh - it's just another learning curve i guess ...

Push can be enabled under the Exchange ActiveSync Settings. It defaults to every 10 minutes, there's a Push Mail option.

Untick them all except Exchange and you'll just see Calendar entries updated by Exchange. I don't have an Exchange option incidentally, so just untick them all and it still shows.
xx @gmail.com is using the Google Sync interface but you said you dislike the Gmail App. PC Sync is for using HTC Sync via Outlook. This is really for non-Google Calendars/people locked into using Outlook. As you're using Google, you're better off updating direct from Google.
You can in theory use Exchange ActiveSync for E-Mail and Google for Calendar/Contacts or visa versa but obviously it makes more sense to use one method or the other. As Gmail supports Exchange ActiveSync, there is basically crossover between using Exchange ActiveSync (and the HTC Mail App) or Google Sync (and the Gmail App).

I presume, so you have them in Outlook too? Don't bother.
I use GSyncit to update Outlook. This talks directly to Google and gets Contacts/Calendar. It's well worth the $10-15. For me it goes:
* Outlook to Google via GSyncit: Both ways
* Google to HTC Desire via Exchange ActiveSync (or Google Sync if I prefer): Again both ways
Just setting up my Defy. Personal GMail showed Mail, Contacts and Calendar but my work GMail only showed Contacts and Mail. Any ideas?
Been there, done that, doesn't work. I had your same issue, because actually android supports only one Google calendar. I solved giving to my work profile full calendar permissions to my home profile; so from my home profile I can see and modify work calendar.
And yes I know it's a bit annoying to setup, but at least it works.

This isn't accurate. There are definitely multiple calendars available because my Nexus S had both calendars syncing.
Really? Then count me in if you find a solution .

Not sure if anyone else is having problems in ICS builds with google calendar sync but I found a solution that worked for me. I tried different apks with no luck the problem it seems is that the ICS calendar has trouble displaying certain recurring events that GB seemed to handle fine for me. After exporting my google calendar, deleting the calendar, and then importing the saved file back into google calendar I was finally able to get ICS calendar to sync. Google how to import and export google calendar if you don't already know how, it's quite simple. If this doesn't work you can try deleting reoccurring events till you find the one causing the sync error.

THIS solved my ics google calendar sync error after updating
Yeah I had the same issue after updating to the official ics (samsung galaxy s2 I9100).
Export import solved the problem!!
SWEET
Thanks
ICS with Exchange
I am facing the same problem with my exchange calendar sync. Do you think this solution would work for this as well?
There's an app for it
I had this issue after updating my Galaxy Note to ICS 4.0.3. Calendar sync caused forced close and no data was synced. Tried deleting my corporate google account from the phone and re-adding it (my personal account synced just fine).
Bought an app called CalenGoo for less than EUR5 after confirming with the very helpful dev that it is not reliant on the defective ICS sync engine. Got everything up and running in seconds!
On other suggested "solutions" found on forums: 1) Not intrigued to factory reset the phone and restore all apps and lose their settings etc. while there is no guarantee that it would do any good. 2) Deleting recurring events (weekly meetings with colleagues etc) is simply not something anyone who uses their Google calendar for anything serious is going to do. And again no guarantee that adding the meetings again would not just cause the same problem. Rather buy a phone that works. It is ridiculous that Google/Samsung would release this kind of defective crap, and makes you think what else might be wrong with ICS if QA is this bad.
Another Fix - Change/Delete Daily Recurring events with Every Weekday Selected

I was having this Google calendar sync error constantly on my Samsung Galaxy S3 and Asus Transformer TF101 tablet. I used ALOGCAT to pinpoint the root cause although it was misleading because the log said "Weekly" recurring event when it was actually a "Daily" recurring event with "Every Weekday" checked. If I deleted these entries or changed it to a Weekly event and picked each weekday specifically, the sync errors stopped. Here's more detail on my approach. I use Gsyncit to sync between my work pc Outlook account and my Google calendar. Then I use the normal sync apps on the phone and tablet. As part of my troubleshooting I had deleted all my Google calendar entries, then reloaded the events from Outlook to Google (one way). I still was getting the sync error until I located and changed the offending recurring events. I also removed my Google accounts from my phone and tablet to force them both to load all the recreated Google appointments from scratch. This may have been overkill. Try removing or changing the Daily (Every Weekday) recurring events, first, before wiping your calendars like I did. If doing just that works for you, it will save you a lot of time.

I have solved same problem by clear data of "calendar storage" apk in application manager. then sync with Google account.
The default calendar on my galaxy note 2 was not syncing correctly with my Gmail. I would go into settings, Google, and my Gmail and the calendar box was checked off. The little wheel was spinning and it would never stop spinning. I tried rebooting and I tried deleting the e-mail and adding it back on but no luck.
I went into the play store and downloaded Google calendar. This seems to have solved the problem since Google calendar syncs without a hitch but I was wondering if there is any way to get the default calendar to sync as well?

I was wondering this as well. But in the end i just keep using the Google one.

I keep getting a sync error as well. It has not synced since yesterday afternoon. I'm assuming it's an issue on Google's side as it did sync my calendar's at one point when I was setting up my phone.
I tried to use the Google Calendar App but so far I'm not liking it as well as the native Samsung calendar app. I like how the Samsung Calendar App has a small written description of the items that are on your calendar when you are viewing it by month.
I'm sure it will get sorted out on Google's end shortly. I hope.

I think I figured the syncing issue out.
First I went to Accounts - Google and stopped syncing my Calendar with Google. I then went to Application Manager - All Applications. Under there I Cleared Data for Calendar, Calendar storage and Calendar widget. Now, I'm only interested in syncing data from my Google Calendar so I had nothing to loose by clearing the data; but if you had other calendar data that was not syncing with Google then I assume you will loose that data by pressing the Clear Data button. After that I went back to Accounts - Google and reenabled syncing and all is well.
Hope this helped you.
Also the Samsung has a my calendar which doesn't correspond to anything in your Google calendar so won't synch. Finally the Samsung calendar doesn't offer any filtering so everything went to sync is also displayed unlike the Google Calendar.
TLDR; Samsung calendar is a piece of junk just root delete it and replace with googles
Hope this may help some people with this problem, When you add new event where it says Calendar make sure you choose your GMAIL Calendar not My Calendar.

To add to this:
1) Go into the Calendar app and then hit "Calendars" on top. Uncheck the "my calendar" box then save by hitting "done."
2) Go back into Calendar and hit the "+" to add event. Switch it to the Gmail account instead of "my calendar" and add a test event.
3) Go to the test event and delete it (or leave it if you don't mind).
4) Go back to the calendar app and add an event. It should now default to google instead of the samsung one from here on out.
Note: You can switch the prior events created by the default samsung app by going into them and switching the calendar to the gmail account. I would do this prior to doing the above steps to avoid repeating them.
Hope this helps anyone who finds it!
wow, i have upgraded my HTC Sensation XE to the custom rom Vipers 3.0.1. my calendar is not working, not sync to google calendar. any one having same issue here?
i have tried to clear the cache, remove the account and add in account, does not see any improvement yet so far.
I am trying to figure out how to add a exchange calendar to any calendar app. I've tried using the default app, Google calendar, and cal, but I don't see anywhere to add an exchange calendar. In play store both Google calendar and cal advertise they are capable of exchange.
Even in the phone "settings", under accounts -> add account, no luck
I'm using cloud magic for my exchange email and it works great.
Didn't know it's so difficult on Android.

I sync between google calendar and exchange calendar with a win program called 'calendar sync +' (free).
I use Agenda Widget for Android to combine calendars in one space as my Exchange is dealt with through Symantec Touchdown.
Have been using the app ever since Jellybean, and unfortunately it hasn't been updated since November 2013, so it worked best with Jellybean. It was unusable with Kitkat. With Lollipop, you will find that the calendar doesn't advance every day (sticks to when the phone has booted), so you either have to "Toggle Today's Events" daily, or reboot daily (I do the former).
Hope this helps.
