Exchange + Google Calendar issue


Recommended Posts

I've been using an Android phone for a week now and I've just added my work exchange account to my mails. It should also sync my calendar (which was empty).

After activating this option I get following situation:

- Exchange account configured and working. Syncs mail, contacts and calendar

- Alle my personal appointments (Google Calendar "Algemeen") have been synced to my Exchange calendar showing double appointments on the same timestamps (one personal, one exhange)

- Work calendar (Google) same as usual, not syncing with exchange

- Family calendar (Google) same as usual, not syncing with exchange

What I want to reach is that my Google work calendar syncs all the appointments to my exchange so I can delete that calendar and start using Exchange as only work calendar. That my personal 'Algemeen' calendar and Family calendar doesn't sync to my exchange but stays Google only.

Is this possible and how can I force this? How come my Exchange agenda copies my Google calendar anyway?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

W.

Not sure. I was waiting for someone to chime in and correct me though with a better solution.

Depending on the OEM of your phone, they might have added cross calendar support? I know HTC and Samsung have both added interesting functionality.

The double appointments are showing up on your computer or phone?

They are showing up on my phone. My phone shows my personal, work and family calendar. My work computer only shows my work calendar.

Now my phone is showing my exchange (should be empty), my personal, work and family calendar. However, my personal and exchange calendar have the same data thus showing double appointments.

Allright, for those interested, what I have done is:

Export my personal Google calendar

Export my work Google calendar

Deleted all content of my personal Google calendar (primairy)

Deleted work calendar

Imported work activities into personal Google calendar and renamed Work

Imported personal activiteits into new Google calendar and name Personal

Now my primary calendar is my work calendar and that gets synced with my Exchange. :)

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
