I use Google Sync religiously. However, I am not hooked to a BES. Contact sync works well, and I've yet to encounter any issues with it.
Calendar sync works properly about 99% of the time. The other 1%, something happens on the Outlook end where Sync gets a little confused about an event arbitrarily. Once in a while, every time the computer syncs from the Outlook end, it will delete the event and recreate it in the calendar. Soon, you have thousands of deleted events cluttering up the Deleted Items folder if you don't catch it or rarely empty that folder. Be careful of that. Otherwise, keep in mind that when set to Automatic, the phone will only sync every two hours or when a new event is created or modified on the phone. The only truly terrible Calendar-modifying application on BlackBerry is Facebook. That application tends to wreak havoc in my calendar causing me to rebuild my calendar by resetting Google Sync. I'm not sure what is going on with their implementation of the calendar, but that works about 50% of the time properly. But that's off topic. :) Thanks, -- Alex Wilshaw domaincontrol...@gmail.com On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 1:23 PM, Chris Burwell <cburw...@gmail.com> wrote: > Google sync on my Bold will not sync my calendar because I am hooked > to a BES.
