How to Sync Any Desktop Calendar with Google... →
iTunes, what could you possibly be backing up on... →
CalDAV support is thoroughly fucked for me. Main calendar will not sync from Gcal to iCal. From iCal to Gcal works.
CalDAV support was added to Google Calendar, which makes synchronization with iCal a piece of cake. Hopefully adding the account will work.
Yay for twinkle crashing the phone again. Still want to know why my location is in Japanese when my device language is English.
So much for Google’s CalDAV support being worthwhile. I need a better way to sync iCal, Gcal and devices.
Complete synchronization of any of my secondary calendars seems to be flawless. WTF is that all about? Google’s help is less than helpful!
Maybe English vs. Japanese in twinkle is all based on location in that some cities are only listed on Japanese. Maybe.
