I am just looking at the config in my phone (with Android 5). I have checked "Synchronize with calendar". The calendar name is set to "org-calendar" (I think that is the default, since I do not recall ever having changed/set it). Under "Advanced" I set "Assimilate calendar entries" (this I find very useful for the odd case when i enter things in the android calendar directly).

I see there six entries (one for my gmail user, one for "PC Sync" that I have no idea what it is, then "org-calendar", a fourth called "Cumpleaños" [birthdays] and then "Holidays in Spain" and a sixth one which seems to be the same but in Spanish). > I can choose whatever calendar I want but afterwards, MobileOrg shows > "Org" (the default one) as the selected calendar. If I understand correctly, this is used by MobileOrg to place its entries in a calendar that the Android calendar will use. When the entries are displayed in your Android calendar, you'll see these as coming from "Org" (or mobile-org).

I do have three entries, non of them named "Org". Whenever I choose an existing calendar within MobileOrg preferences, it stays at the non-existing "Org" calendar. I guess this is the reason why there is no data sync to my calendar. >> I can choose whatever calendar I want but afterwards, MobileOrg shows >> "Org" (the default one) as the selected calendar. > > If I understand correctly, this is used by MobileOrg to place its entries > in a calendar that the Android calendar will use.

I don't have an existing "Org" calendar and I could not figure out how to create it in my calendar app and MobileOrg obviously doesn't create it on its own. >> Maybe it has something to do with my disabled sync settings: I don't >> sync to the Google cloud. > > Aha, I think this is probably needed.

OK, then MobileOrg -> Calendar feature is of no use to me since I avoid the Google cloud. That's really weird since this feature is especially useful to people not having Google Cloud sync activated. >> I gave up and use MobileOrg mainly for capturing and (seldom) >> browsing my Org files for information.

A little bit confused now: When I checked MobileOrg a couple of minutes ago, I did see some (not all!) Org-mode events for the first time. Only scheduled things, no events with time-slots. I did not check any further. I recognized, that MobileOrg settings is showing me the previously selected existing calendar. In calendar, I noticed that sync was activated. Grrrrr. I hate it, when something silently leaks my private data to the public cloud! After I disabled the sync-checkboxes for my three calendars, the Org-mode events were gone again. Quite disappointing, the whole story. -- mail|git|SVN|photos|postings|SMS|phonecalls|RSS|CSV|XML to Org-mode: > get Memacs from https://github.com/novoid/Memacs < https://github.com/novoid/extract_pdf_annotations_to_orgmode + more on github ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

Karl, I am sorry I can provide no additional help here and that the whole thing is frustrating. I've been using mobile-org for several years without much tweaking and, yes, enabling (not happily) the syncing of calendar with Google's cloud. That said, sometimes (for reasons I don't understand) things do not work fully (the calendar is not updated completely, events are missing, events get duplicated, etc). So this is not always 100% reliable. As for Android's calendar syncing with Google's cloud, and after reading Brian van den Broek's and Bingo UV's comments about Offline Calendar, I think I'll be trying that so I can get rid of the cloud.

How unfortunate. I use an app (from the Play Store) called Offline Calendar. It makes Google calendars that do not sync. I have mobile org write to a calendar it creates and never sync calendars on my phone or tablet. It works on my nexus 7 and my Moto G. It also worked on the Nexus 4 and an ancient 2.x Android Samsung phone.

I use the same application (in fact from F-droid) to create local non-cloud calendars and mobileorg uses it nicely. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread
