G+_Darren Dempsey Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Ok All I have a wee problem I am wanting to sync a few calenders to my phone,My google calender, my fiancees google calender, my work google calender and my facebook calender. I have a sony xperia z1 neither the sony calender nor the google calender seem to do this ( can get other google accounts ) the samsung phone I had previously seemed to sync different accounts easily. Am I missing something ? can I get the Google calender App to sync with facebook ? Or do you know of an app that will aloow this Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Clément Roux Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Just share all the needed calendar to your primary personal google acount and then you choose the ones you want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Darren Dempsey there are multiple ways to get this to work. 1) Do as Clément Roux said. Have the other Google Accounts share the calendar with you. The caveat is that you need to manually add reminders to the events, as they are not carried over in the sharing process. 2) Install the accounts on your device. This will sync all calendars from each account to your device (along with their notification settings). This is the "preferred" way, but you have to make sure you know which calendar you're adding/deleting/editing to/from. This is the method I use to share my and my wife's calendars on each of our devices. Just make sure "Calendar" is selected in Settings --> Accounts --> Google --> . Once you are sure the account is syncing calendars, open the calendar app --> Menu/Action Bar --> Calendars to display --> Calendars to sync (button at the bottom). Ensure that each calendar that you wish to sync is selected. Once selected, go back to "Calendars to display" and ensure that it is shown. You should now see all of your calendars. As far as Facebook goes, it seems that they pulled out support for calendar integration. Going into Settings --> Accounts --> Facebook doesn't allow you to change any syncing options like it used to. Additionally, I didn't find anything in the app settings to toggle calendar syncing. Additionally, it doesn't show up in the "Calendars to sync" list, which it should. I guess they would rather keep you in the app instead of using the system to its full potential. *I tried to +mention Clément Roux, but it seems to be broken for me. This has been happening for the past week or so. Sorry. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Clément Roux Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 The Joseph Cappellino second solution can also be used to share paid app between account btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
