Windows 10: Calendar app won't allow me to change colors for my Gmail calendars

Hi everyone,


I have an issue with my calendar app (the Mail & Calendar app from Microsoft store). I've been trying to change the color for each of my Gmail calendar (5 calendars for this Gmail account), but it didn't work. After I changed the colors, about 20 seconds later the app switched them back to original colors. So far I've tried: reset & re-install the app, uninstall the latest windows update, restart my computer. Nothing works.


Additional Info: I just re-installed my Windows 10 Single Language before I found this problem right after I installed the Mail & Calendar app. Before the re-installation this problem didn't occur.


How do I solve this?


Thank you so much in advance.

:)

 

calendars


So not really following. I suspect the calendar the phone calls My Calendar is the default phone calendar. When you enter stuff in it it stays just on phone. Since it is likely set as default then it is populated when you enter an item.

The real test is when you click (enable) the gmail calendar. Now when entering items if My Calendar is still checked, and its your default, then the entry goes there. To avoid this I had suggested unchecking My Calendar so you know it is going into gmail's calendar. Then force a sync. Also check to ensure calendar app is allowed to use cellular data and if the capability exists, allow app to run in background.

 

Surface Pro Win 10 won;t allow me to change iCloud address for calendar

I am trying to sync Won 10 calendar data with iCloud calendar data. When I read the instructions and add account under the calendar app on the surface Pro, I select iCloud, but in the icloud account name it has something like *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, and I CAN NOT
change the account name (the cursor will not go to this field even though it allows me to go to the other field. Why would this be happening?

Thanks!
