Thought I would try this question here as it got nowhere on a different website.
I am having a problem with calendar reminders on my GS3. I am a full delegate for my wife's Google Calendar. When I first set this up I had an issue with events I scheduled in her calendar with a 1 day reminder showing up on Google and her tablet with a 30 minute reminder. I have since discovered that it was a Google setting causing this and have since sorted it. Now the issue I am having is that events I schedule in the calendar on my wife's tablet with a 1 day reminder show up on my device with no reminder at all. Does anyone have any ideas on what could fix this. I should mention that I am using the stock calendar that came on my AT&T GS3.

Does anyone know how to get google calendars to sync events 1 year plus? currently only recurring events sync past 1 year, but not individual events
You are lucky. I have only 6 weeks back.
How did you enable 1 year?
Mine has always sync'd +/- one year... no settings seem to be available to change this, so not sure why you have less... I need two years!

I have this issue too... have calendar events going back 2-3 years, and recently I can only sync 6 weeks on my Desire. Google Calendar shows all my events going back to 2009.
Hi all,
Found a method that did the trick for me.
Turn Auto and background sync off.
Delete data for Calendar and Calendar Storage.
Change date to something like 1 Jan 2009.
Turn sync back on.
After a few minutes it will resycn all calendar data.
Change date back to auto
With a custom app you can sync in any range .... I use "Business Calendar". Definitely better than the stock app !
Wow -- I'm shocked that there's no way to change the synced date range within Google's app.

I would use something else, but I like the HTC Sense Calendar app.
Will take a look at "Business Calendar" though.

How do you do that? The BC forum suggests using something like Synthesis syncML, and I've tried that, but I don't understand how to configure it.
I tried that business calendar but found if you store contacts birthdays then close app then open again it has deleted info not sure why because if you store it as pc sync they are ok.
Ok got my Galaxy Nexus and connected and synced up to my Exchange server and was happy to find that Stock Android Email now supports HTML Emails! But now my recurring outlook appointments are off by an hour. I googled and found this:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4628
It says it was "fixed" in Honeycomb and should be in ICS as well. I never noticed this issue as I have been using Touchdown for years now but always hated not being able have a unified calendar.
Have you found an answer for this? I tried searching elsewhere to no avail...

Stranger still, only some whole day recurrent appointments (birthdays) are off by one hour. Some are not off. On my Galaxy Note.
And we do not use DST at all.
Hi somehow since few days now my calendar doesn't want to sync anything from past events a part for last month. When I go to web version of the calendar all the events are there even from 2yrs back but ics doesn't want to sync it somehow. Is it just me or does anyone have the same problem???

Check to see if "hide declined events" is checked under settings > general settings. It should be the first option.

Nope had it like that all the time .... all entries disappeared today everything was fine let's say yesterday ..

Probably a long shot... but how did you set up your time zone?
For example I had calendar widget problems when fetching from network, but manually it worked fine
Try clearing the data from the calendar app and then sync it again. I had that problem with a different phone and clearing data worked for me.

Timezone is on default settings in calendar on phone it's network provided.
Clearing data from calendar doesn't help.
If I have an entry on calendar via web browser its there and I can clearly see it. It doesn't show in the android calendar, however, if I add something in the same day through the web browser this and the previous even in that day will show in the phone. So wtf is wrong with it???

I had a problem where my several of my Google calendar just wouldn't appear no matter what (manually triggering auto-sync, uncheck and recheck Calendar sync, etc.), and toggling around the settings even caused ALL my calendars to disappear at one point.
Yesterday I finally figured out to force-stop and wipe the data for Calendar and Calendar Storage, and then letting Calendar resync. Works brilliantly.

Hoping someone with a Note 2 could do a quick calendar test for me. With the standard Google Calendar all day events with a reminder are based off of 5PM the day prior. So if you have a 15 min reminder for an all day event it will fire at 4:45PM the day before. Does the built-in Samsung/TouchWiz calendar work the same way or does it work like a standard exchange calendar where it is based on 12AM the day of the event and fires at 11:45PM the day before?
Thanks!
Bump. Anyone?
This is a really annoying issue and has lead to problems several times: I have a few meetings every week and I usually remember them. Obviously, they are set once for a longer period of time as recurring events. But sometimes they get moved because of holidays etc. and the date and/or time changes. While Outlook on my PC shows the correct times&date (Exchange Server 2003) I cannot make it appear in the calendar app. As a matter of fact, I tried Touchdown and several other apps but none shows the events.
Here's a list of what I already tried:
Google - Lots of people have similar issues but nobody seems to offer a solution.
Searched the Apps and Themes and the Q&A thread here.
Disable sync for Exchange items (calendar etc.), then sync, reenable, sync again.
Removing account and setting up new.
Save the recurring event with minimal changes (like reminder time).
Creating a new event on the phone syncs fine with Outlook, deleting the event there also deletes it from the phone (so sync is working).
Setting the calendar event to sync to "All".
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Many thanks!
EDIT: I'm running CleanROM 4.0.5 but I don't think that's causing the issues since my coworker is running stock JB on his SIII and is experiencing similar problems.
shameless bump
Does nobody here really care about these things or am I the only one with this issue? Strange...
I'm facing the same problem. Although I'm using a Nexus 4 with Android 4.3.
I can see that some of my recurring events get dropped when syncing. Adding/ deleting new events works though.
Did you find any solution for this?
