Calendar no longer syncing
Now that 2.2 is up and running the calendar is no longer syncing with Outlook. I have created a new URL link and tried to add it into Microsoft Outlook, but Outlook reports that the file is not a valid internet calendar.

It's not just Outlook. Google Calendar can't sync, either, and when I looked at the data stream, the reason is obvious -- it's generating a 0-length file. Every application that tries to sync with an empty stream is going to have problems.alanbrad wrote:Now that 2.2 is up and running the calendar is no longer syncing with Outlook.

I have a valid calendar file dated 8/9 - about 4 days after 2.2 was implemented. I suspect a failed service/server.

Any way you can put on a note on the Calendar app and let folks know that sync isn't working? Or just remove the "sync" menu item until that feature is back on? It sure would save people some head-ache. Thanks!

Agreed. I spent a couple of hours today trying to figure out why my calendars won't sync before finding this thread in Google.jrjlds wrote:Any way you can put on a note on the Calendar app and let folks know that sync isn't working?

It's working fine for me (I just did it again 2 minutes ago). What steps are you following? Are you saying that it won't sync for the first time, or that it's not updating as quickly as you expect?tonybrigmon wrote:Church calendar still not syncing with Google Calendar.
