Fix for syncing Google calendar

[Hasan Abbasi]

I use google calendar and gsyncit to sync my work calendar and with WP8.1 dev preview the syncing between the phone and google calendar broke hard.
After some tinkering around I found this solution:

1. Go to the email+account settings -> google
2. Select to sync calendar then press advanced settings.
3. In the calendar server address (its something like apisomething.googleusercontents.com) change it to

[URL="http://www.google.com/calendar/dav/YOUREMAIL@DOMAIN.COM/user"]www.google.com/calendar/dav/YOUREMAIL@DOMAIN.COM/user[/URL]

Voila. Happy google calendar syncing. (So far atleast)

To what?

 

[Hasan Abbasi]

To windows phone 8.1.

(Or if you mean change the caldav server address to its the code-block

www.google.com/calendar/dav/YOUREMAIL@DOMAIN.COM/user

Outstanding work. Thanks a ton.

Still not working for me...nothing I've entered into my google calendar at work has synced since the software update. When you're entering your email address/domain into the server address, does it have to be all caps? Is that what I'm doing wrong?

This is what worked for me by changing the CalDAV server:

Even with the default settings, I was able to get my own Google calendar. However, trying all of these, I was still only able to get my own calendar. I was never able to get my shared calendars to show up.

Haha, found the answer on an Apple support page:
iOS: Syncing multiple Google CalDAV calendars

You have to go to this page, and select which calendars are available for sync:
https://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect

Which looks like it redirects to:
https://www.google.com/calendar/syncselect
