Hi Folks

I am on 2.0 now and I have some questions related to Calendar and Contacts. My Company used Exchange previously and have since migrated to Google Apps. I have configured the PB (native email client) for my company email and the protocol used is IMAP. I am able to receive/send emails just fine but my calendar and contacts are out of sync.

My phone which is a 9810 does not have this issue.

Do I need a Google sync type program to accomplish this?

Any clues?

Thanks

Same question from me

I have a simpler question, I'd be happy to just sync contacts with my blackBerry, anyone have any idea if this is possible?

To sync your contacts with your BB phone go to m.google.com/sync on your phone, download the sync app. Run it to upload your contacts etc. to google, then setup your google account on your Playbook and they will sync.

No idea with Google Apps but I'm sure it should have your contacts and push them down, but just guessing.

No problem with email syncing to Gmail but Google calendar is still blank. I have multiple calendars set up but even my default is not there....

Help!

Calendar sync...possible solution

Please understand this may not be exactly what you're looking but:

Here's what I discovered, give it a shot. it's a working workaround, sorry it's not perfect, but you

don't have to deal with millions of duplicates when you attempt to sync your Google Sync with the BB

calendar app.

Do this:
Sign in to your Google account using BB's web browser. Then access the Calendar feature from a WEB PAGE.

Do NOT use the BB Calendar application that's built into the memory. Google's mobile Calendar page will

show you an agenda and a Quick Add space where you can add new events to your calendar WITHOUT EVER USING

THE BB CALENDAR APP. It will sync to your Google calendar, and the only difference is, you bookmark in

your Web favorites to access your calendar app. With BB's push browser, you'll stay as synced as you

possibly can in real time, AND YOU ONLY HAVE TO INPUT AN APPOINTMENT ONCE FOR IT TO STICK. And best of

all, NO DUPES!

Sorry if I am on the late freight, but hey, it took me a few weeks on my new BB 9360 Curve to get it to

work this way. Hope it helps!

One more thing...make sure you hide the BB calendar so you don't accidentally access it instead of the

web.

Update: I've using this procedure since I first posted on 4/10/12 with NO PROBLEMS...NONE!!!
