Anyone else have calendar events not showing up? I have an event scheduled everyday that isnt showing a notification. I’ve looked at the usual stuff, notifications are on for calendar, etc....I have an iPad that’s also connected to the same gooogle calendar and they come through fine on it everyday. Anyone have any insight?
Is there an alert added to the calender entry? Like 10 minutes before?
Thanks for replying. There is an alert set,...it was for 10 minutes before, that didn’t work so I changed it to at the time of event, and that didn’t work. I read somewhere that it was because of the last update, so I uninstalled the update and it worked this morning. I’m going to give it a few more days to see if it still works and if so I know a calendar update came out yesterday so I’ll update to that and hopefully I won’t have to worry about it anymore.

I used to have problems with my calendar not firing alerts or just firing late on previous phones. Then I found an app on GPS called Events Notifier For Calendar (by RYO Software.) There is an XDA thread somewhere about it. I've been using it on my last three phones including this one and I feel it is indispensable! (As for the GPS rating, my guess is user error for most of people's complaints.) But it has never failed me and the developer is extremely helpful. It's probably one of the first 5 apps I now install on every new phone.

I recently upgraded to 4.3 on AT&T, and I've been having some problems with my notifications.
Several files keeping popping up in my pull-down window, even though I downloaded them weeks before.
Also, my IBM meeting app sends me notifications from meetings that happened a couple days ago, and sometimes it doesn't notify me of a current meeting.
If anyone has a fix for this, that'd be great.

That's weird. This is gonna sound silly but have you checked your date settings? Is the date set to 2014? Idk, I had some problems with my notifications and with the Play Store in the past just because of that detail.
Could somebody please help me about making a calendar entry? I feel pretty stupid about this whole thing, I can say to Moto 360 "open calendar app but it only seems to open it on my phone". Is it possible to say make an appointment for Wednesday the 25th? Seems like I have no problems with anything else like sending text messages and getting directions but this is driving me crazy. Thanks for any input you can give me.
I haven't been able to figure this out either.

Set reminders
I've been able to set "reminders" that only exist under the Google Now home screen. Try this voice command: "Add reminder. Whatever whatever whatever at 9am tomorrow." I've used the "Add reminder" command quite often and it works very well.

You can just say "remind me to take out the trash tonight".
Unfortunately I need calendar items and it seems, inexplicably, Google Wear doesn't support it.
What about these:

no luck.
No Luck this is a bummer. I would like to just add a calendar meeting. Just by saying add calendar event tomorrow 9am meet with John Doe.

This is definitely a bummer like you said, but now I'm just using "add a reminder" hoping that the next version of android Google L will do the job.
Sadly, Android Wear is more of an extension of Google Now, than an extension of the Android phone...
It'll get better, though
I can't even get it to set a reminder. It tries to save and says "Sorry that didn't work. Try again"

Moto 360 degrading over time

After 3 weeks with my Moto 360 I just started having problems of all sorts, including no longer being able to set a reminder. I do everything the same as I've effortlessly done over the last 3 weeks ... "Ok, Google ... Remind me to <blah blah>" and it just shows a Google search of a webpage I can open on my phone. Reminders have worked dozens upon dozens of times over the last 3 weeks, and now not at all.
I've uninstalled Android Wear on my phone, restarted, Reset device on my watch, waited a long time, followed the on-watch prompts to reinstall Android Wear, re-paired Bluetooth, and so on. A few times now. Same thing - super basic smartwatch functionality of my Moto 360 has spontaneously stopped working over the last couple of days.
If I say "Ok, Google ... Remind me." and pause my watch will display a prompt that says "About what?" and if I say something it just says it can't reach Google at the moment. But it can! All my notifications from my phone are still working, and if I ask a random question ("Ok, Google ... who is the Prime Minister of Canada?") it pops up a response just fine. It's just all the really useful and core smartwatch stuff that has been hosed.
It started with the time being incorrect on my watch, whilst it remains totally correct on my phone. I've had to restart my watch multiple times per day to get the time set correctly, I've Reset device several times now, etc.
Overall, my Moto 360 experience is severely degrading over time. :crying:

What kind of phone? Is it at least android 4.3?
used to work fine
Yes, I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 with 4.4.2. And as mentioned, Android Wear and my Moto 360 have been working great for me for the last few weeks then all of a sudden - wrong time. After a bunch of complete wipes / reinstalls AND calls to Motorola support just to be sure and also to loop them in on problems, my AW experience continues to get worse.
However, it appears I'm not unique in this. I just checked the comments on Google Play for the Android Wear app and it looks like a lot of people are having similar issues with the October 6th update - incorrect time, inability to set reminders anymore, etc. Let's hope Google and/or Motorola read and respond and fix the problems ASAP!

Which versions of AW are you on? I'm still on 1.01.
Any solution for the problem? It's really annoying, someone??

Hiya, it seems the reminder functionality uses Google Now, so if you've disabled Google Now on your phone, it'll tell you that it can't make new appointments every time you try...
You can add reminder to Google Now remind section not on Google Calendar.
If you want add entry in your Google Calendar you can use an App named "Calengoo".
With this app you can add calendar entry and also entry in your Google task.
With this app you can also dismiss or snooze Calendar Event when is send to Wear device.
I just received my MOTO 360 today and it has been able to send text messages then suddenly when dictating a text in Google Now on the watch it says that it "Can't Connect to Google at the Moment."
I have the newest software update (KGW42 R 4.4W.1) on the watch and I have done multiple factory resets to no avail. I have also switched the phone from Hello SMS to Google Hangouts and that has not helped.
It appears to involve any Google Now command like reminders. However, I can search the web fine.
I am running a Nexus 5 Unlocked with 4.4.4.
Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to get this resolved.
I'm having the exact same issue... and I just bought my Moto360 today as well. I got it to work for a few minutes then it disapeared again. Would not suprise me if this is an outage on google's side.... at least I hope it is. If I try any google voice action it opens a seach of that term instead of the action, so I have searched for "set an alarm for 9am" about a hundred times.

Yes. Any time I use a voice action to, let's say set a reminder, I get the same error message. Just as the text message. I do hope this is a problem on Google's side. Web searches appear to be working fine as you said.
Yes I am having the same issue. I got the watch yesterday night played with it till battery died. Then i charged it fully, and played with it and used it at work today. I used google commands like "remind me ..." and "set timer for ..." about 16 hours ago with no problem. Now all of a sudden for the past 7 hours I always goes to google search when i make those same commands. It is very frustrating however i am happy i am not the only one experiencing this.
Just wiped my 360 and paired it with my Nexus 5 instead of my MotoX, same exact issue. Anyone who has had one of these things for more then 12 hours had this issue tonight?
It's a problem with the Wear app that was updated by Google today. I'm sure they'll have another update that fixes what they broke by tomorrow.
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue... It's been driving me crazy I've been trying everything to fix it!
I was in tears thinking i got a lemon
Im glad im not the only one.. The 360 was launched here in India and i was quick to go and order before it went out of stock. I turned it on, charged it and updated it. Was trying all the voice commands and all it kept doing was a google search.. Hopefully an update will come soon enough.:fingers-crossed:
I've had my 360 for over week with no issues giving voice commands (e.g. remind me to xxxx) however just this morning, I am having the same problems as described. The weird thing is, my android wear app hasn't been updated (I've checked the version number) so that can't be the cause.
This leads me to believe its a server side issue.... hopefully...
This morning it seemed like the issue may have been resolved, not sure if anyone else can report the same.
^^^ I can report the same. The issues seem to be worked out. I will make not and post if i run into any other issues while i check it now.
Moto X pure here. Wasn't having this issue and now it suddenly popped up
Hey guys,
A few weeks ago my Verizon Samsung Note 4 received an OTA update - nothing major, I believe it just added some security patches and removed some bloatware. But since then, my gmail app has not been syncing properly.
The sync is definitely still ON, because it does sync sometimes but it's very sporadic. But it's not syncing as soon as emails come in, and often it will take a couple hours for new emails to show up (which I can see if I'm home near my computer). Some mornings I'll wake up and my emails from overnight will be there, and some mornings, nothing will have synced from overnight.
And as far as I can tell, there's nothing specific that finally prompts it to sync (in other words, turning my phone on, or simply opening gmail doesn't make it sync. It just seems to be totally random).
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!!
Dude I though it was me.. I been having the same problem. Anyone else having this problem and figured it out?
Same
I got the 5.1.1 update 8 days ago and exact same issue. I've been through 3 factory resets both using previous backups and starting fresh. Also used troubleshooting fixes from other posts... clearing data, clearing cache, turn sync off/on, removed/added Google account, etc. Nothing so far
Same issue here...
Strange. I've also taken the update (actually, if memory serves, there were 2 updates within a couple of weeks) and aren't experiencing the problems you all are seeing. I know, that doesn't help you any.
Hmm, well it does help to hear from others that are having the same problem, so at least I'm not driving myself crazy trying things that won't fix it! Thanks for the replies.
And of course, if anyone has any solutions, I'd still love to hear from you too . . .
I know this also is not much help, but I've sent an email to the Dev but no reply yet...
Same here in note 3 and since updating gmail app my gear 2 no longer gets notications from gmail even when gmail DOES show up on phone notifications.
Leave it to Verizon to screw everything up after finally making some big progress with the first 5.1 update. That update fixed SO MANY issues I was having with the phone. I was ready to switch to a new one, but the update made me want to keep it. Then I wake up to see this latest 2nd update was installed without it asking me, and now I am having major issues with things like Gmail not syncing, but also answering a phone call is horrendously bugged. I will have to swipe the green answer button like 8 times before it actually picks up the freaking call. My wifi will randomly stop sending and receiving any packets and my signal will just drop out completely, airplane mode doesn't fix it and it requires a hard reset. Like holy hell Verizon, what the actual freak do you guys do to your phones...
First time on here so please be gentle with a Newbie
Up until yesterday my Lumia 930 running windows 10 was working brilliantly.
I switched on today and received notifications of new mail messages. When I tried to use email from the live tile, mail opens momentarily then closes instantaneously, the same happens with calendar. No matter what method I use to open email, it’s the same.
I checked my apps list and it shows Outlook Mail and Outlook Calendar 16006.11001.20083.0 was updated today.
Any ideas please, I don’t really want to have to a factory reset all over aging as I did a couple of months back, it take so long and I always loos e something along the way.
Any useful advice greatly appreciated.

I had a similar issue and a reset caused the exact issue you describe. First the update occurred Monday or Tuesday of last week. Then after a couple days noticed I wasn't getting text messages which was odd. Then noticed my sound notification went off as a text came in but when I opened the messaging app could see nothing in there. Next one that came in I had the phone in hand at time of text and saw whom it was from and was able to search that person and see their text - tough way to run a business!!! A quick search found similar issue back in 2016 and only fix was a reset.
Once I ran the reset I have not been able to use outlook or outlook calendar they open and close within seconds never actually launching. I performed 3 resets since Wednesday and could not get outlook to work or my contact list to load. this morning I reverted back to windows 8.1 and for now though I can no longer get any OS updates thanks to MS stellar customer appreciation initiative (Use our product then discontinue the product line). But I can use the phone with my email, texts and phone again for the first time this week. Soon as my VZW contract is over I am ditching VZW and Windows phone and going back to android.
Sorry I have no real solution for you. I may try to re-image again with windows 10 to see if I can get outlook to work again, but I would suggest finding a 3rd party email client you can install.
