Note: This publish doesn’t work anymore. At least for now. I’m looking for an alternative.
Lot’s of people have been asking Microsoft to add a calendar syncing feature for Windows Live Calendar. Since Microsoft has not yet added this feature, I’m going to post a work around that will allow you to sync Windows Live Calendar with Windows Mobile, iPhone, or anything that supports Microsoft ActiveSync/Exchange, through Google Calendar and Microsoft Office Outlook. Lets get started.
Note: Updated with troubleshooting info.
Things you need:
Microsoft Office Outlook
Outlook Connector
Windows Live Calendar account
Google Calendar account
Calgoo Connect software and a Calgoo account
Outlook
Let’s start on the Outlook side. First, if you don’t have Office Outlook, I’m sorry. You need it for this post. Second, your going to have to set up Outlook before you continue with this publish. If it’s not already set up(as in first screen wizard), just continue without eMail support.
Now that your all ready, download the Outlook Connector here. Install, and set it up. You may need to restart Outlook. When Outlook starts up again, it will ask for you Windows Live Calendar(or ID) account details. Enter your account details, then click “OK.”
Now,
Office 2007 Keygen, if you use Outlook as your primary email program, skip this step. Your all done. If not, continue.
Look for the Outlook statusbar icon, right-click on it, then click “Hide when Minimized.”
Calgoo
Now,
Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit, you need to sign up and download Calgoo connect from . After downloading, install it. When your done installing it,
Office Home And Business 2010, open the program(if it doesn’t start up automatically), then click thebutton to set up calendar sharing.
In the window that pops up, select “Sync an Outlook Calendar with a Google Calendar,” then click “Next.”
Name the connector, then click “Next.”
Select your Windows Live Calendar email address, then select the calendar you want to sync with. For this publish, I’ll use Sample Calendar. Click “Next.”
(If CalGoo can’t read your Outlook calendars, go here to try to fix the problem)
On the next screen, enter your Google Calendar user details, then click “Next.”
Now, if you don’t want to sync with your current Google calendar, click “Create a new calendar.” If you want to sync with a current calendar, click “Browse my Google calendars.” Select a calendar,
Microsoft Office 2007 Professional Plus Activation Key, and make sure it’s your default calendar, or it wont sync with your mobile phone’s calendar.
Make sure your info is correct, then click “Next.”
Select “Synchronize Now!” then click “Finish.”
The calendars should start syncing. Now, to fine-tune everything, click theicon, then click the “Synchronize” button. Click the “Synchronization frequency” dropdown. If you add stuff to your calendar all the time, select “On demand.” If you don’t add stuff to your calendar all the time, select “1 Hour.”
This next step is optional. Click the “Application” button.
Next, click check/tick the “Start Calgoo Connect automatically when Windows starts” and “Start Calgoo minimized,
Genuine Windows 7,” then click “Ok.”
Mobile Phone
Go to the Google Sync website to find out how to set up your device.
That’s it! Enjoy!
If you get an error when trying to select your outlook calendars, before loosing hope, try restarting your computer. Restarting clears up and junk left in the system memory, and may fix your problem.
If restarting didn’t work, then try this: Close Microsoft Office Outlook and then run the synchronization setup. It should work now.
If that doesn’t work, go here to get some help: (Thanks @ BYlvis)
