  1. Google Calendar synchronization has stopped syncing - please help me sort it


    I have 2 google calendars which I set up a long time ago for each of my 2 gmail/google accounts. I used them separately for a long time and then I discovered I could connect them so I could link them and view all appointments & birthday reminders in any of the two calendars. That worked really well until today when I noticed that only one of the calendars was showing all my appointments - the core calendar I linked the other one to. The second one - this was linked to the core calendar - was only showing some old repeat birthday reminders that were probably in the calendar at the time I linked them. There are ticks in all the boxes under my calendar. Apart from checking that I don't know what to do. I had some password authentication problems a few days ago and I wonder if that may have caused the problem. I have logged into each calendar so I'm not on the old login.


    How do I get the link back without losing my reminders/events.

    :)

    Google account (mail / calendar) not syncing in Windows 10

    I'm having a problem with the default Mail and Calendar apps in Windows 10. For a while I was able to sync my Google account emails (Gmail) and calendar in those apps, but about a week ago, it has stopped working: the calendar is empty (no events, and no calendars listed), and the emails that were already synced are still there, but syncing doesn't bring any new email.

    I tried deleting my Google account from the mail (or calendar) app, by going to "settings -> accounts", and then re-creating the account. I did that three times. Each time I was able to complete the following steps:

    1. enter my Gmail address,
    2. then my Google account password,
    3. then the confirmation code sent by SMS,
    4. and finally got to the screen "Windows would like to..." (permissions listing), on which I clicked "Accept" (obviously).

    The first time, I then got a Windows message "Something went wrong", followed by an error code (I didn't write it down).

    The second time, I didn't get this error message, so it looked like the account was successfully created (it appeared in my accounts list in the settings of those apps), but nothing was synced: both apps (mail / calendar) remained empty. (I tried syncing manually by clicking the sync button in the mail app: still nothing, even though the app confirmed that it was "up to date".)

    For my third attempt, I had found this question, so I went and created an "app password" in my Google account, specifically for those apps. But when I got to the password screen (step 2 described above) and entered this app password instead of my regular account password, I got an error message (from Google) asking me to enter my account password and not an app password. So I did that, and that got me exactly the same result as my second attempt (account created but nothing synced).

    I also tried both answers given on the same question (first via "settings > accounts > add account > Other account", and second via "settings > accounts > add account > Advanced setup"), but none of them worked for me (again, account created but nothing synced).

    Has anyone experienced the same problems? How can I make this work?

    UPDATE: a few months back (early October 2015) I received an email from Microsoft inviting me to "reconnect to Google" (that was the title of the email). I ignored it for a while, but recently followed the steps in this email and now everything seems to be working fine. So I'm guessing that MS somehow fixed whatever bug it was.

    Syncing Google Calendars with Calendar App

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family.

    From the description provide, I understand that you are unable to sync Outlook calendar and Google calendar.

    I would suggest you to use Outlook.com as the first step and then try to import the Google calendar ics file.

    Please follow below.

    Export Google Calendar

    • Logon to your Google Account.
    • Click the gear button.
    • Follow the path Settings> Calendars> Export calendars.
    • It downloads as a zip, hence you have to extract the .ics file.
    Import Google calendar to Outlook.

    • Login to Outlook.com.
    • Click on Import in the context menu.
    • Select the Google Calendar .ics file to import it.
    All your Outlook events and appointments are now either in Google Calendar, whichever one you chose to import to .

    You can also refer to the below link for additional information on Mail and Calendar apps for Windows 10 Help

    Mail and Calendar for Windows 10 FAQ

    Refer to the section Resolve Sync issues in Mail and Calendar apps in Windows 10.
