Re: Calendar adjusting for Daylight Savings Time -- no DST in Arizona!

2009-01-09T17:26:50Z

I should have mentioned... I have Google Sync running in the
background.
It's a two-way sync with my Outlook calendar. The source of the
appointments
is Outlook. The post March 8 appointments have the correct times on
Outlook,
but not on Google Calendar.

This has to be a Google Calendar bug.

Re: iCal CalDAV error

2009-01-09T17:25:25Z

I've found that removing the calendar and re-adding it will make the
problem go away, at least for a little while. But then it returns
within a few days and I'm back to square one. Something I just
noiticed...

I was actively having refresh problems. When I examined the account
URL, it had been created with %40 in the string in place of the '@'.

Replacing a gcal-managed calendar with an external calendar

2009-01-09T16:47:13Z

I have a calendar I edit with Google Calendar, DC Tech Events, with a
calendar ID of:

[email address])

I plan to eventually migrate the calendar to my own website,
publishing an iCal file, but don't want to lose the readers
subscribing through Gcal, or the gcal-published iCal and atom feeds.

Re: Google Sync says "Another sync client..." Why?

2009-01-09T15:18:15Z

Wanted to add my voice and say that I'm seeing the same "another sync
client has been adding events to the Blackberry calendar. To avoid
duplicates Google Sync..." error so that Google developers will see
this thread and realize it's such a big problem and renders Google
Sync useless.

WTF google??? cannot get confirmation code

2009-01-09T15:18:08Z

Obviously there are a lot of people with the same issue:
when you change your phone number in calendar notification and press
"send confirmation code" you do not get anything i.e. neither an error
message, nor a confirmation code on your mobile. I can only guess that
it is related to the still selected notification checkboxes in the

Re: Sorry, Calendar is unavailable right now

2009-01-09T15:02:45Z

I was having the same problem, and tried the same things noted above
that were recommended by Google. Here's what ended up working: When
I exported the calendar it zipped the file to make it smaller. I was
trying to import the zipped file and kept getting the "Sorry, Google
calendar is temporarily unavailable" message. I ended up extracting

I have a similar problem. I've noticed that meetings containing
invitees that no longer work for the company don't sync, because their
email addresses won't resolve. Having the meeting owner remove these
people solves the problem. It's worth checking out, at least.

Same here. Extremely frustrating because it happens way too often.

Re: Not receiving ANY notifications

2009-01-09T12:02:48Z

I have always had problems with notifications so let me elaborate:

I have a calendar shared with a friend. The friend receives all
notifications in all forms (SMS, email, popup) without fail. But
despite being the owner of that calendar, for most of the events I do
not receive any notifications.

Re: calendar sync changed my meeting ownership in outlook and so I can't edit

2009-01-09T11:04:08Z

Oh, and I managed to get ownership back by deleting the offending
entry in the calendar and then finding my original invite in "Sent
Items" and dragging it to the calendar. YMMV

Re: calendar sync changed my meeting ownership in outlook and so I can't edit

2009-01-09T11:03:07Z

For now I've just changed my settings to make the sync one-way
(Outlook to GMail). I don't manage my work schedule from home, I just
want to be able to read it.

error 2016

2009-01-09T09:55:05Z

The way I got around this was to have the calendar app on the side bar
and clicked add event. this takes you to the login page, enter the
login details and then re-sync.

Calendar adjusting for Daylight Savings Time -- no DST in Arizona!

2009-01-09T06:29:39Z

I have Mountain - Arizona selected as my Google Calendar time zone.
Therefore it shouldn't adjust for DST. But it does! Appointments on
or after March 8 appear an hour early.

Unfortunalely, I have many midnight events that are now appearing on
the previous day!

I am running into this too. I also seem to be getting a ton of
spanish ad's on pages using googles ads...

Google Calendar Suddenly Appearing in Spanish

2009-01-09T04:28:19Z

I maintain a website and I wanted to embed a google calendar in it. I
recently built the custom HTML text using the Calendar Settings and
the resulting HTML code seems to work. But then when I log out of
iGoogle, the month and tabs for the calendar display Spanish text (I
had set it up as English - and all my settings point to English).
