Can you please start a sync by pressing the parse/Handle WebiCals (based on your version) button.

After the sync finished can you send me the logfile (App

Messages->Send log to dev). All the buttons are on the mainscreen and please do not close the app (after the sync) before you have sent me the logfile.

A mail will be created please send the mail, so that I can look on the configuration, possible errors, and so on.

Btw. you can also write me in German!
[Android Apps and Games] BAKIrko:
Done. Twice: once from my phone, once from my wife's.

BTW: it took a lot of time, so maybe it would be better to sync every three hours instead of each hour?

I know, but I agreed to write in english to this forum. Is this not valid in this specific thread? If so, I'd prefer to use my mother tongue. ;)

Greetings from Berlin

[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Hi,

thanks I got the logs and will look into them. You configured at lot of calendars so its normal that it takes some time.

Yeah at this forum you should use English but if you write me e.g. a mail with some details you can use German :)

Where is the promise contact sync?

I just bought your application - which is really expensive...

In Android Market the Title is: CalendarSync; Subtitle:

Calendar/Contact Sync Mobile

How can I sync my contacts? Calendars are slow but work.

I didn't find anything in handbook about the contact sync.

Can you provide me some help please?

Where have all the tasks gone...?

It seems, after sync with CalendarSync - all my tasks (Thunderbird Lightning/Sunbird; stored together with calendar data) are gone...

How can I get them back? / Avoid this in the future?

I just would like those questions to be answered before I vote and potentially claim the money back. We're not talking about just 2 Euros....
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
You bought a app called CalendarSync which of course does sync calendars (so it sycs the appointments which are the content of a calendar). The subtitle is always the name of the company (and not a list of features, the feature list with all the features can be found at the description on my website or on the google play store page of the app) which reflects that I have two apps at the market, one that syncs calendars (appointments which are combined to a calendar) called CalendarSync and one that syncs contacts (contacts and groups which are combined to an "addressbook") called ContactSync (Which can be found here

Tasks are not supported by CalendarSync which is designed to sync appointments (which is also stated at the featurelist that only appointments can be synced). I'm currently working on a app which can sync/display/modify/create tasks but this will be presumably called somethink like TaskSync or TodoSync.

But of course you can get a refund if you thought that the app can also can sync tasks and you need that feature. Todo so please just send me the mail which google sent you after the purchase so that I can find it here. And of course you can test my apps and all the feature (without any limitations) for two weeks for free like it is stated on my website or at the google play store.
[Android Apps and Games] Christoph21x:
Hi... (do you have a name?)

This is misleading.... not happy.

Especially as you don't provide Trial versions. So I just spent the money for nothing? Never having made bad experience so far...

If you don't support tasks - that's okay, but the app DELETES them, it should leave them untouched. OR... clear warning in the text!

What to do now? This is the most expensive app I ever bought for my Android - and that's because I'm more critical with it.

Claim my money back? I need tasks - not talking about my work required to restore them...

Greetz -Chris

---------- Post added at 06:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

Sorry seeming to be unfriendly.

At the end, I don't want my money back, I'd like to have a solution.

I'd even like to give the contact sync to give it a try... but will you (we?) be willing to work on these claims?

Then I'd be willig to wait and see (having kinda workaround through additional calendar accounts for the tasks...)

just need your committment, willing to serve as beta tester.

[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Hi Chris,

of course I have a name it's Annemarie. Nice to meet you :) And I also provide trial versions (which can be used without any limitations) this is stated multiple times on my website or at the play store page of the apps. You just have to contact me and I can then instruct you where you can download the apps for free and I then will also send you a free testlicense so you can check it out. This would probably be interesting for your for the ContactSync app.

If you don't want to get a refund (which if course is possible if you want) I also can take a look on how to implement such a feature (to preserve tasks) and test it together with you. I always want to get apps which support my customers and make their life easier so I'm always interesting into helping you.

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] Christoph21x:
Hi Annemarie - nice to read from you. No, no refund. (at the end it could also be my BLOND Being not having read all ;) )

I'll just try out your contact sync as well - thank to your kind answer.

It would be great having the "not needed or permutated information" preserved in the ics.

I'll stick to your post and would love to help to improve...

Greetz from Berne - Chris

PS: it is the the mindset of the developer which make me stick to or leave a software.... thank you!

Work-around Description for *.ics users using Tasks and calendar entries

If ou're using e.g. Mozilla Thunderbird with Lightning extension or Mozilla Sunbird, you may have added *.ics-based Calendars from personal ftp- or http-servers.

If you're used to use both, Calendar entries and task list entries, you should follow those steps prior to have a first implementation and synchronization with CalendarSync: (as per 2013-07-20)

PRIOR to your first Sync with SyncCalendar (only applicable, if you're using tasks, too)

[Describing this for Thunderbird; please apply accordingly]

- select the calenda (with tasks), right-click and EXPORT.

(NOW depending if you want to use this internet-based or not:)

- create a new caledar, and import this exported calendar to this

- select search calendar and select nothing (means: all) - delete all scheduled meetings / entries - but NOT the tasks

- select this calendar, which now only contains tasks, active - and you'll see the entries in the task bar.

- publish this online or export and upload as you did prior with your calenda.

- just make sure, that you just synchronize your actual CALENDAR, keeping your priorly exported tasks un-synchronized.

Do this for every calendar you'd like to synchronize.

Kind regards - Chris.

Hi - I have a feature request: CalendarSync doesn't sync if airplane mode is on.

Would it be possible to make CalendarSync auto sync work as long as a data connection or the android auto sync is active - even if airplane mode is on?

I often switch airplane mode on but let wifi active to sync and fetch mail. In this case I can not use CalendarSync auto sync.

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
I will add this feature to the next release.

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] Christoph21x:
H Annemarie

Could it be, that if reminders for calendar entries are turned on and they appeared (e.g. in Thunderbird) and were acknowledged, that this acknowledgement (only; no other change of the entry) is overwritten by synch with mobile device runnung icssync? (I never got reminders on the mobile, I'm just recognizing...)

After sync and restart of Thunderbird the same reminders come again...

GReetz to Austria & Thanks in advance - Chris
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Hi Chris,

the app preserves the ack state of the alarms so that thunderbird does no longer notify you for old alarms. Do you mean my app or icssync?

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] Christoph21x:
Hi Annemarie

Excuse me, your app of course (tried first icssync --> trash :) )

Hmmm... so this might be a conflict ov sync'ed versions - I'll check this out. For the time being, thanks!

8 minutes off, recurring events

I am using CalendarSync on Android client with a calendar source of Kronolith from the Horde suite.

The calendar app I use is the free version of Business Calendar, BC. As I understand, BC simply uses the standard Android backend calendar.

Within CalendarSync, I choose Display WebiCals. Then long press on each feed and select Clean Up. This clears all events from each of the the Android client calendars. from there, I choose to Handle Webicals (Network Sync). All events are imported correctly and appear on the client handset as well as the Kronolith source correctly.

The issue is when I allow CalendarSync to AutoSync. Static calendar events are fine, however, recurring events are changed by a -8 minutes every time autosync runs. Also, events that are all day end up being moved forward a day over time. Single day events always show correct after multiple autosyncs. This is shown on both the Android client as well as the source Kronolith calendars.

I can clear the client calendars, reset the event times in Kronolith so they are correct, perform a manual sync and all is well. Again when the autosync runs, recurring events lose 8 minutes again.

What additional details do you need?
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Hi arthurema,

I assume that you contacted me already with a mail? Did you get my response? I would need some log informations.

1) A log from a manual sync (for optimal results after a cleanup):

Can you please start a sync by pressing the parse/Handle WebiCals (based on your version) button.

After the sync finished can you send me the logfile (App

Messages->Send log to dev). All the buttons are on the mainscreen and please do not close the app (after the sync) before you have sent me the logfile.

A mail will be created please send the mail, so that I can look on the configuration, possible errors, and so on.

2) A log from a autosync sync. Therefor you can enable the autosync logging at the preferences of the app. Then (after an autosync) go to /mnt/sdcard/CalendarSync and check for newly genrated logs. The name of autosync logs start with Log.AutoSync. Please send me one or two of this logs.
[Android Apps and Games] arthurema:
After I run a manual sync, I can "Show Log Information". This shows the debug session with credentials. I chose to "Save Log" so that I can manually parse out the creds before sending, but where on the file system do I find this saved log file? I don't see it in /mnt/sdcard/CalendarSync where I would expect to also find the AutoSync log after it's been saved.
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
The log should also be stored at /mnt/sdcard/CalendarSync (a folder called CalendarSync will be created). Probably your device uses a different root data folder? Does /mnt/sdcard exist? You also seem to use a old version of the app you can get a updates release here:http://ntbab.dyndns.org/apache2-default/seite/icalparseandroid.html The up to date releases also skip the debug logging of credentials.
[Android Apps and Games] arthurema:
I updated to the latest version, 12.5, cleaned up all calendars and reboot. I started a new manual sync and sent the log file. With this version, recurring events on the handset are -8 minutes with the manual sync. The app did not write back to the source calendars at this point in the process which is good for now. I assume that after the initial sync and with autosync enabled, then events that are different between the handset and source will be written back to source.

With the previous version, manual sync did not change recurring events by -8 minutes, only during autosync. I have not allowed autosync to run yet because we now see the -8 minute problem with manual sync.
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
So the normal timezone definition for Los Angeles should be (the first two digits are hour the 3 and 4 are the minutes, this example shows the switch from daylight to standard time):

TZOFFSETFROM:-0700

TZOFFSETTO:-0800

But your calendar file uses:

TZOFFSETFROM:-0652

TZOFFSETTO:-0752

The difference are the 8 minutes which lead to your issue. So I assume that kronolith adds incorrect timezone definitions for your calendar. My app uses this timezones to calculate appropriate times for your device and so the wrong timezone definition from kronolith applies to the appointments start dates. It looks that it would be necessary to file in a bug report at the kronolith developers

I'm trying to test this app to sync my calendar at work.

However I'm not sure what I can do with the free version. I did set up a "webical" but I can't process it without a license!?
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
For using CalendarSync WebiCal sync (sync with a network source e.g. CalDAV, WebDAV, FTP,..) you need a license. As mentioned on my website, here or also by the app you can get a FREE one easily for testing all the features of the app without any limitation. I sent you a pm with more details or you can also contast me by sending a mail if you prefer that way :)

Help needed for test liscense

Hello OP,

Thanks a lot for this app. I would like to know how do I get a test license for this? Could you please let me know.

Thanks in Advance.
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Hi,

you can send me a PM (I would have sent you one but you disables this feature here at xda) or you can go to my website CalendarSync/TaskSync/ContactSync. There you can find a mail address for each app and you can send me a request/questions there specifically for a app. But of course you can also pack everything in one mail and send it to the main address for CalendarSync which is calendarsync[at]gmx.at

Proxy configuration for CalendarSync?

Is it possible to configure CalendarSync to use a proxy for connecting with calendar servers? I.e. localhost 8118 or similar?

TIA.
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
You can configure a general proxy on your device for all connections but there is currently no feature available that you can configure a proxy only for the app. But you could directly configure the proxy domain instead of the server domain and the proxy can be configure to forwards requests on a specifc port to your server?
[Android Apps and Games] thepoweruser:
Thanks for the feedback. It is my understanding that the Android-wide setting only applies to browser traffic on port 80 unfortunately, but configuring the proxy domain in CalendarSync might work with the HTTP proxy function of my localhost. How would I construct the URL to specify in the Url field of a Webical entry the proper combination of my localhost:8118 proxy and the https URL of the actual calendar server?

I tried something along the lines of "http:\\127.0.0.1:8118\https:\\calendarhost.com\calendarname" but it didn't seem to work?

btw the backslashes in this message should be interpreted as proper slashes. spambot-induced forum restrictions prevent me from posting urls in this discussion.
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
To use http:\\127.0.01 you would need to have running a http proxy directly on your android device. Have you installed such an application? Are you the administrator of the proxy? So maybe you can do somthing like this

http:\\YourProxyDomain:ACustomPort\ and then you could configure the proxy to forwards ACustomPort allways to your webserver? But I never had running or configured a proxy by my own so I dont have any practical experience (just read that on some proxys this should be possible)
[Android Apps and Games] btrcp2000:
This app has worked great for a while, but is now having issues I cannot figure out. I am using icalx to host an .ics file published form my work Outlook computer. When I have Outlook subscribe to that same .ics, it comes in identically to the Outlook calendar. When I use Calendarsync to pull it into my LG G2 from the exact same address, it seems to be finding outdated info. Meetings that have been cancelled still appear, some things are moved up/back a half hour, some are not there at all.

I have cleared data from calendar storage, and set/reset webicals from within CS, and cannot figure out what the problem is. Log file emailed from with the app already.

Help??
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
The timing problem could be resolved and I have released an update (I also have attached it) but the appointments which should not be there are simply still available at the calendar file. You can also check this by yourself, download the calendarfile open it with a text editor and search for the appointment which should not be in the calendar -> so search for "bell staff meeting". I'm confident that you will find the appointment. because the app cant simply out of "nowhere" create valid appointment data if it is not in the calendarfile.
[Android Apps and Games] btrcp2000:
Thanks, but nothing has changed with the new app. Looking more likely this is an icalx issue. They have the ability to view a graphical HTML version of the calendar or a text file of the .ICS, which is where I can still see the Bell meeting, you were correct. However, the Bell meeting does not appear on the HTML viewer. The HTML version looks a little more accurate, but many meetings are showing 5 hours behind where they should be.

I have deleted/republished multiple times. Any thoughts on how to fix icalx, or is there an other place that will host an .ics (that I can get to thru work firewalls)?
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
Basically for the Outlook publish calendar features you only need a webspace which supports WebDAV. Here you can find some free providers which provide such a webdav storage for free:

WebDAV

Its quite interesting that you have such problems, because I have about 100 guys using icalx with a similar configuration without any issues.

But when the data is in there even after publishing then it can also be a outlook problem. You could try to export the calendar as an ics file in Outlook and then open this file which a texteditor (windows default one called notepad is enough) and search for the appointments summary (e.g. bell staff meeting). When you find it in there too then the problem is connected to Outlooks export.
[Android Apps and Games] btrcp2000:
Per your suggestion, I exported my Outlook .ics file and reopened with a text editor. Sure enough, Outlook is exporting the wrong times on some of these appointments. They look fine in the original Outlook calendar, and even if I export the .ics and then reimport it into the same version of Outlook alongside the original calendar, it shows the correct time blocks. Doesn't look like this is either the fault of icalx or calendarsync, but unless I can get this fixed they're both useless to me, and everything was working fine until recently. Any advice as to how to fix an Outlook .ics export? How can outlook itself display the correct time blocks when the txt file has the wrong times?

Also noticed that sometimes it's not even exporting certain appts at all. Is there a cache or something somewhere that needs to be deleted?

tia

---------- Post added at 04:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 PM ----------

Here are examples of two events in the .ics file. The first one "cocktails" appears in icalx at 10:30pm US Eastern. In Outlook, it shows correctly at 5:30pm. The second one "MTCES Finance" appears correctly everywhere. Obviously the problem is with Outlook exporting some of these with a "Z" at the end of the DTEND and DTSTART lines, as opposed to the actual time zone on others. What in Outlook controls that?

[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
The Z value represents a UTC time value, this time gets automatically converted by CalendarSync to your local devices time if CalendarSync notices such a appointment, but is is possible the iCalx stubles about such a timezone definition because it is rarely used. You should see the timezone in outlook at the appointment., so you can check this and assign your normal full timezone. See e.g. here were you can see a example how the timezone config looks Outlook Timzone
[Android Apps and Games] btrcp2000:
Now it makes sense. For the life of me I could not figure out why it seemed to be uploading properly but changing the times. Anyway, all is well now. I'm not sure what hapened exactly, but it didn't seem like anything changed after downloading the update you attached earlier, but eventually google play found and applied an update after things looked right again. Thanks for the support!
[Android Apps and Games] 920904:
You are welcome. If any questions come up then simply write me a mail.

If you have some spare time and want to support my work on the app then a good rating at the Play Store for the app is really helpful for the future development :)
