Just a heads up for anyone else who's getting frustrated because goosync.com won't load:

"We will be taking the GooSync service offline on Thursday 30th November from 11:00 to 12:00 GMT for scheduled maintenance."

This includes website updates.

I've been using goosynch for a little over a month now. Love it, love it, love it. Synchs with my tmobile sda every time. Outlook items synch without any issues. This is great stuff.

I tried goosync abotu a month ago. At that point, it didn't work with recurring appointments. Worthless to me without them.

I settled for another piece of software:
Snoopsoft Webcalendar: http://www.snoopsoft.com/webcal/default.asp

It's not perfect, but it mostly works.

Installed Goosync on my Motorola Q today and it doesn't load repeating appointments from my Google Calendar to my device. :( Nice concept, but buggy.

I've been using GooSync for about a week on my Treo650.

The only complaint I have with it is that it does not sync multiple calendars. I think a solution for this is in the works though.

Goosync is working perfectly for my Nokia 7610, even over here in New Zealand.

Loves it.

You could also use AirSet (http://www.airset.com) and it's desktop sync application (cost: free). Just subscribe an AirSet calendar to your Google webcal feed. AirSet Desktop Sync supports Outlook, Pocket PC, Palm Desktop, and Palm devices. They also have a mobile client that runs on many cell phones (if your phone can run a game it can probably run airset).

Since I can only post 3 links at a time... this is Part 1 of my post.

I've tried a number of products & services that attempt to sync google calendar to a mobile device (I have the MotoQ).

So far, no luck with any of them. But the ones I've tried are:

1. GooSync (mentioned here above)

2. CompanionLink - (not really that great) http://www.companionlink.com/products/companionlinkforgoogle.html

3. ScheduleWorld - (seems to work, not 100% of the time, but it is getting better weekly) http://www.scheduleworld.com/tg/cal/day.jsp and (confusing) instructions are here: http://engtech.wordpress.com/2006/08/11/the-holy-grail-of-synchronization-how-to-synchronize-microsoft-outlook-multiple-locations-google-calendar-gmail-ipod-and-mobile-phone-with-funambol-scheduleworld/

Okay since I can only post 3 links per post- here's part 1:

I've tried a number of products & services that attempt to sync google calendar to a mobile device (I have the MotoQ).

So far, no luck with any of them. But the ones I've tried are (In no particular order) :

1. GooSync (mentioned here above)

2. CompanionLink - (not really that great) http://www.companionlink.com/products/companionlinkforgoogle.html

3.

And now for part 2

4. RemoteCalendars - (again, this one works well, but it is 100% manual, and I have been unable to upload from my phone > outlook > google cal) http://remotecalendars.sourceforge.net/ and the HowTo: http://www.jakeludington.com/ask_jake/20060818_how_to_sync_google_calendar_with_outlook_and_smartphones_automatically.html

And the latest one I tried that seems to almost work (but yet still no repeating events) called
5. CalendarShare: http://www.saraiya.com/documents/23.html

(I'll have to report back on that AirSet once I've tried that (another) method)

Hope that helps (someone)

registration form on their page is STUPID!
why sync service need all those info??? USABILITY=0

I am sorry to say it wont work. At the moment my N80 has been backed up pretty well at zyb.com and I wanted more by getting my G calendar on mobile. There is this gcalsync and then goosync and none works as given. Now zyb has started gcal import (no auto update yet) which seems to work all right. Well when do google plan to come up with a sync thing??

I was going to try it today, based on a recommendation from a reader of my blog. But I have to admit, I was completely turned off by the registration page. They want my physical address, date of birth, and gender? I don't think so. In addition, I'm very uncomfortable with the concept of giving my gmail address and password (!) on the main registration page - that should be something that you tweak in the options. No go for me. Not even going to try it out.

I wanted to sync Google Calendar events with my Mobile 5.0 device wirelessly, without Outlook, without ActiveSync and without putting my Google Account information into a third-party website. When I couldn't find what I wanted, I wrote my own, GMobileSync.

GooSync Update:

Google Authentication Proxy will be added this week.
No need to add your Google credentials at www.goosync.com simply authorize goosync from with Google Calendar.

Cheers

I just installed the trial for SnoopSoft WebCalendar, and it synced my Google Calendar to my Windows Mobile 5 just fine, except it appears to only be a 1-way sync. Is that correct, or am I missing something.

If it IS a 2-way sync, I'll surely buy it, as this is the BEST solution I've seem thus far!

If your still looking..a solution to sync Google Calendar to your Windows Mobile 5 .... OggSync has a FREEWARE version that will OTA 2 way Sync direct to Google and if you have multiple calendars like Outlook for work, several personal/public Google calendars - the PRO verision can handle that also,

Give it a try and let us know what you think!
