[Q] HTC Synch no work with Froyo Outlook Calendar

Ok..finally got my Desire to Froyo..have been quite happy until I noticed that I can no longer upload Calendar updates to my PC's Outlook calendar.
I can make changes on the my Windows 7 PC's Outlook Calendar and have that go to my Desire but any Calendar changes on my Desire will not synch up to my PC's Outlook calendar. There are no problems with synch'ing contacts. Yes, I used the PC Synch calendar on the Desire.
This wasn't a problem before. Is HTC Synch not 100% compatiblewith Froyo?
Thanks for any insights.
PS:
1) Tried uninstalling/reinstalling HTC synch - no change there.
2) I've also noted that recurring entries in the calendar (eg: Birthdays) are getting duplicated on the days they occur (ie: 2 entries in the same day). Also, there are duplicate contacts being produced too.
sorry i'm not going to be much help here but i agree that htc sync is unpredictable at best. i constantly have to reboot my pc or phone or both to get sync to work and now my contacts have stopped syncing. again.
you might want to search for a leak of the updated version of htc sync to see if that helps. i'm assuming that it was pulled for a valid reason but it might be worth a try ...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I also have the same behaviour, new entries in the phone calendar are not added to the outlook calendar despite being flagged as "PC Sync"
For the birthday thing, I think that it is to do with the info you have stored against a contact in their contact card in outlook, if you have a date for their birthday in the details section of the contact, then sync repeatedly adds it to the calendar for you, even if it is there already
I have the same problem. So I've moved all Calendar entries in Outlook to temporary forder, then from Desire removed Outlook account, manually deleted all Outlook calendar entries in Desire's Calendar (they have left there, despite of account deletion) , then recreated Outlook account (Calendar after all these steps synced OK), and moved back all Calendar entries in Outlook from temporary folder back to main. This solved the non sync problem.
After all I've talked with Exchange specialist. He said, that for some reason Calendar database in Desire become corrupt, and after that the syncing become unimpossible.
Ok, I've managed to fix this (I think anyway!) works for me with outlook 2003, Couple of steps:
Step 1 (optional) gets your missing items onto your PC:
In HTC sync Manger (on PC) go into "settings" then calendar, then click properties, untick deafult calendar and then when selecting the folder to sync with, create a new calendar "temp" or something
Now sync with that calendar: for me this meant that everything on my phone (including the items not uploading before) now goes into this new calendar
Now go back and revert to syncing to the original calendar (the default calendar or me) and lo and behold the missing items now sync up to that too
I thought this was everything sorted, but new items created in the phone still don't sync up to outlook....
so Step 2:
On phone, go into settings, applications, manage applications, all
then for calendar and calendar storage apps go in and "clear data", this will leave you with an empty calandar on your phone, but don't panic...
in HTC sync manger (on PC) go into settings and unselect contact syncing (otherwise the PC will overwrite contact info)
Then go into "repair" and select option for PC to overwrite phone
you can now reselect contacts to sync too under settings menu in HTC sync
Having done this, everything is back on my phone and (for now at least) new appointment items created on the phone sync up correctly too
Hope this helps someone,

THANKS!
GENIUS.
popkid's solution works. HTC should employ you..none of their ideas worked, your's did.
1000 cheers for taking the time to work out and post the solution!
Caution HTC Sync 3.0.5422
(Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30)
3.0 does not have the feature to do a repair - force copy clean from handset or PC.
For me, sych has resulted in a large number of yearly recurring all day events being duplicated and copied with a one hour adjustment - the new ones run from 1:00-1:00 and thus span two days.
I am back using 2.0.33 (which is not without bugs either)

[Q] Sync my Calendar data

I have Gmail account logged on my Desire , and my Calendar has been syncing everytime i connect to Internet. In The google calendar web , there are uploaded all my events from Calendar. Recently I decided to change my ROM , and then to sync my calendar data through my google account , but only the
events since the new year (1 JAN '11) till now got sync. All my events from 2010 can't get sync.
Any ideas how to restore all my events from google calender , except writing them back again ? ;S
Silly question for you,
I assume the older calendar items are still in the gmail calendar as accessed by a browser ?
actually you can request older entries in the calendar app, tried that?
I Want events on my phone , not in webpage ..
1. Opened my Calendar appk
2. Click Menu button , press settings .
-Calendar view setting (nothing in common with my problem)
-Reminder settings ( nothing in common with my problem)
3. Opened Accounts & Sync
-choose my google account
-there appeared
Sync Contacts - Accepted
Sync G mail - Accepted
Sync Calendar - Accepted
-press sync now

[Q] Delete ALL phone contacts but NOT Google

Hi guys,
I seem to have cocked up my contacts through a load of synchronising and messing about.
I now need to delete ALL my phone contacts but NOT the Google contacts (because I want to import the Google contacts after).
The problem is, everytime I delete a phone contact (ie. Have only PHONE visible in contacts list and delete) it also deletes from Google (even though Google is hidden).
This is probably because they're linked contacts... but I have HUNDREDS of linked contacts, also with Facebook etc to show the photos. It took hours setting up all the links and I don't want to break them.
What do I do? :-S I'm really confused.
Thanks
Matt
PS: This came about because I'd accidentally been adding NEW contacts to Google rather than my phone. All I wanted to do was get the 10 extra contacts from Google onto my Phone also (then link them). So i exported the Google contacts to SD card and then imported them to phone from SD Card. It created duplicates on the phone (so now there's 2x more contacts listed in the Phone storage).
Did you try disabling synchronize for google account before deleted action?

thanks. Tried and it doesn't help. I disabled all synchronisation, unchecked Contacts in the Google account... and it still deleted it.
Re-enabled sync and hoped it would still have a copy on the Google account but it hasn't, it really deleted it.
:-S
But you've the vcf file from your last backup process in your sdcard right?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
yep i just exported google contacts to SD card so I have a copy.
I just want to delete ALL phone contacts and re-import.
When I delete a phone contact though it deletes the Google contact also! And god knows what happens to the Facebook contact (not risking deleting one that's linked to Facebook)
Hej,
When you initailly set up you phone, you setup HTC sync & Google Sync by default. 1. Disable Google Sync, it will delete/not show all the synced google contacts
2. Create a Google Exchange account & sync.
3. Enable linked contacts with facebook (or you can disable facebook sync altogether as I did so as not to have duplicate entries (having mobile number of John twice)
Hope this helps
PJS
thanks for the replies guys.
I've fixed it as follows...
Deleted Facebook account.
Deleted Facebook for HTC Sense account
Deleted all contacts (also from Gmail)
Restarted phone
Imported SD card to Google
Resync'd
Added Facebook accounts
Relinked everything.
What a ball ache! :-S
Thanks again

Calendar+Mail Bi-directional sync

I am using Google calendar and Gmail. However, I can't sync both direction information. Any change on the google side is properly being sync to my phone, however nothing goes the other way. For example, if I delete a mail it will not be deleted in my Gmail. The same is with a new event I create in my phone. Furthermore these events are marked in green so I guess it can be sync.
I checked at "settings/account &sync" and found a partial solution for hotmail (mails that were deleted in my hotmail will be deleted also at the phone).
Any idea how to get full bi-directional support?

Understanding how Contacts are managed in Android 6

I am not sure the question is correct and this is the place.
Anybody welcome to point me in the right direction.
I have some 3000 private contacts in Outlook (not Exchange) and they all have Categories in Outlook.
I also have over 1000 business contacts in my Exchange account.
The Exchange Contacts are synced correctly.
My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S2 (Android 4.0.4) and I was syncing the Contacts from Outlook with MyPhoneExplorer as Phone contacts (I have no contacts in my 2 Google accounts) and all was working well.
I bought a LG G4 with Android 6 and pushed all the contacts from Outlook (with MyPhoneExplorer) in the phone.
There is a whole mixup I have some difficulty explaining:
Android "merges" all the various contacts. When viewing a contact I see info from Whatsapp, Exchange, Google Accounts in the same card. In the "Accounts" field I see the Google sign, the Exchage sign and sometimes the Whatsapp sign but not the "Phone" sign.
In Edit mode I can see the info from all the "accounts" one after the other in the same contact.
I can change the account to Phone and then I get duplicated info.
I cannot delete the contact from one account.
my questions are:
1. is this a new feature in Android 5/6?
2. is it possible to manage only "phone" contacts?
3. Am I using a wrong program to sync my contacts?
Please if anyone can give me directions where to read on the subject, how to proceed, what program to use I would be ever grateful.
