RE: [MLUG] [OT] Google calendar sync with MS Outlook

["Hancock Jr, Denis C." <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

The first version I tried was a little buggy, and I had to do a little cleaning up, but an update came out last week and it performs much better.

 

It works best with single events, but it does place repeating Google calendar events onto Outlook (but apparently not Outlook repeating events onto Google).

 

At this point, I find it convenient, but not perfect.

 

One thing I did was increase the interval to 24 hours, and do a manual sync whenever I make changes.  They really need to add the option of doing only manual syncs, since I am not always on the MU network.

Subject: [MLUG] [OT] Google calendar sync with MS Outlook

 

Has anyone tried Google's tool to Sync with MS Outlook?  Has anyone had say 90% success or higher with it?
I'd like to have a reliable (and preferably free) tool to sync my google calendar w/ Outlook.

It only synced about 20%.  It's versioned like it's in Alpha or Beta state (.9-something) still.

Any tips would be appreciated.
