You can read it in this thread

What I was trying to say is can you download the stuff from your calandar into MPE?

@kirkie: There is a way without gCalDaemon, but you cannot edit events saved in Google. Just set the sync-option to ics-file and choose as link the magic-link to your google calendar (you'll find it in the calendarmanager of google)

Hi,
I'm successfully syncing my phone with my google calendar with the exception of reminders. I'm using v1.5.10. Are there any options to map this ? I haven't been able to see anything.

Thanks for the great program!

The next version will sync with google without middleware (full integrated sync with google)

That's great news!
Will we also be able to sync with more than one Google Calendar?
I use one for private and one for business Appointments and would really appreciate being able to sync my phone with both calendars.

Thanks!

if the feature is ready and stable then you'll be able to sync all Google calendars which you have on your GoogleAccount if you have read/write access to them.

Way to go, thanks! Can't wait to play with the new version. Very Happy

I've registered on the forum. Any chance I can get that test link? I would love to be able to sync directly w/ google!

A direct link to Google Calendar would be wonderful, I cannot get any of the other systems to work.

I've had one of those moments when I think I must be doing something wrong - because I've managed to get Google Calendar working quite easily!

Can I explain what I've done, and some kind soul can tell me why what I've done is so obviously wrong? Laughing

Admittedly, mine is a somewhat tortuous route, but I think ends up the same as people wanting to go direct from Google Calendar.

Hmm... seems far too easy!

Two questions which I came across whilst importing from my Google Calendars: MPE kindly asked me if I'd like to add all entries, intelligent import based on subject, or ditto on start time. What do they mean? I hoped the last one might mean it only brought in entries after today, but that doesn't seem to be the case...

As a result of the first part, I'd appreciate some advice on my second question: given that I've got lots of calendar entries, I'd like to get rid of the older ones. If I right-click on the 'hours' section, I get the option to "Delete passed (sic) events". Does that mean events which are past as at today? Or as at the date that I'm displaying? To hopefully make it slightly clearer, if I change the calendar to January 1, 2007 and use that feature, will it get rid of everything from 2006 and before, but leave from Jan 2-infinity?

Many thanks in anticipation,

Patrick (I'm new, in case you didn't realise! ) Laughing

Hy Patrick

Yes - basicly its easy, but in your situation there is a better solution:
Set the Calendar-Sync in MyPhoneExplorer to iCal-File, as Url to the file you choose the private-magic-link to your Google-Calendar-ics file (you can view this in the calendarmanager of Google.
Pro:
- you can choose a daterange for syncing
- its a full featured sync, not an import

Contra:
- the Sync is one-way, no way to edit/delete items in Google
- you can sync only one Google calendar

Both contras will be fixed in the next Version, in MyPhoneExplorer 1.6 there will be a direct 2-way connection to google.

But back to your questions. In the Import-Window there are 3 Options: "Add all", "Intellegent import based on siubject", "Intellegent import based on start-time". The intellegent option means that MyPhoneExplorer searchs for existing items on the phone. If exists, then the data are updated, not added. This has nothing to do with date-ranges

"Delete passed (sic) events" menas that all events which remained before today will be deleted. It has no effect on which date you are browsing in the calendar.

FJ (sorry, I'm not sure if you're a Franz or a Franz Josef!),

Many thanks for the quick reply - I didn't realise I'd set up incorrectly! However, at the moment it may not be updated, but at least I've been able to include info from 5 or 6 Google Calendars!

I'm now looking forward to v 1.6 !!

Linked to the Gcal private URL but it says the file doesn't exist! The phone is talking to the PC via bluetooth okay as everything else synchs.

Did you choose the url to the ics-Version ?

Anmeldedatum: 19.02.2006 Beiträge: 14

Hi FJ

Yup, private address/iCal options and cut and pasted the URL.

Even turned off ZoneAlarm to see if that was blocking anything. Same result.

If you get the message "File not found" then it must be an invalid link
