I had – for many years – been using a Palm Pilot (later Sony Clie) to sync calendars with JPilot<\/strong> on Linux, and this worked fine, especially after USB support was added, all those years ago..<\/p>\n

I now have an Android so-called smart phone, and simply want to sync my calendar with my desktop (KDE 4.9.2<\/strong>)..\u00a0\u00a0 This shouldn’t be rocket science, but seems to have been ‘broken’ for some time..<\/p>\n

Having come to terms with the fact that sync via Google was the only practical way to do this, I then set up KOrganizer<\/strong> to access my Google account via Akonadi<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Despite ‘akonadi_googlecalendar_resource’ finding all my personal and imported calendars on my Google account, nothing shows up in the diary listing in KOrganizer..\u00a0\u00a0 Apparently this is a ‘known problem’ and one is supposed to use CalDav instead.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This would be fine, except that – as far as I can work out – CalDav only picks up my personal diary, and not the others that I have linked to my Google account..<\/p>\n

I could probably live with this – as all the calendars show up OK on my phone – but now I seem to be experiencing magical diary event disappearing syndrome<\/em> in KOrganizer..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Unless I can get to the root cause of this, it means I cannot rely on the KDE desktop calendar – and the event reminders that I rely on to pay the bills on time!..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Very frustrating, and – as I said before – this stuff\u00a0 is not exactly rocket science!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
