use the Yahoo Sports calendars. They sync just fine. Subscribe to them on the Google Calendar site.

There's a post around here somewhere....

I can't get events to show up in the calendar, I have the box checked. The month view shows a hash mark that there is something there, but when I push the day and it opens up it is blank. It only shows timed appts in day view.

On your Hero, go to your Calendar/menu/calendars, then you have to CHECK whichever calendars you would like to sync up to your device. It will NOT show the sports Calendar for some reason, but it looks like it shows everything else. I just tried the stardate, day of the year, phases of the moon, U.S. holidays, and week numbers, and they all work and show up on my device. Just no the sports... I also have my Microsoft Outlook Calendar, Google Calendar as well synced up to my Hero.

Hope this helped!

The sports calendars won't sync, but the one thing I hate is I can only add an event on my primary calendar(you can with the others, but it won't sync). I then have to goto the normal site and change the calendar to the one I really wanted to add it to. You would think this would not be an issue and this could be easier, especially since this is Google Calendar and we are using their OS. Hopefully, this can be something that will be easily fixed in the next update.

Hmm... I'll have to look into this as I have become a bit of a quick learner on this whole calendar issue.... I'll keep you updated. But real quick, could you give me kind of a scenario of what you are talking about? What other calendars could you sync over the air besides Google calendar?

I have to update on the problem I explained above. The events are in the calendar. When I press the date in the month view, the correct date turns green, but it sends me to a day view of another day. Usually the day above or to the right of it. What is strange is that only the day I press turns green, not the others.

I think that is because you may have only the calendar checked that is colored green?

Not other calendars, one Google account with various calendars within the account. If I create an event on my primary, then it will sync. If I create an event with another calendar, then it will only show on my phone and won't sync. I can't create with my primary and then change the calendar I choose. You can only do that when working with a web based browser like ie. I hop that doesn't confuse you

I know this has been discussed on other forums as well, but nothing has come of it unfortunately. I miss OggSync on WM, that worked like a charm

Which is crazy since this is their own product and it looks good, but doesn't operate as good as it should, thanks.

I guess on your device you would have to individually choose which calendar. You can change which calendar you want highlighted at any time though by going into your calendar/menu/calendars, and choose which one. Again, I have them all highlighted, and everything on them shows up on my front page calendar. Hope this helped...
