Please, help! ( Jolla C mobile, running Sailfish 2.0 OS). I have two Google accounts in my name, let's say account A and account B The calendar entries new introduced for A account, using Jolla do NOT appear on the desktop (laptop) calendar. More than that, after a few seconds, while obviously the mobile tries to sync, the new written entry disappears from the mobile device calendar, like it has never been written! Obviously, neither does it appear on the laptop screen of the G account A. Amazingly, the new introduced entries in the calendar written in the laptop, appear on Jolla ...

NOTE: I am very aware, when I write a new event in the calendar of my mobile, I correctly choose the proper account (A) to host the new entry.

I have tried to do the same thing from my other Google account (B). From this B Google account thinks work OK, as Two-ways syncing, no problem.

I have also tried to access Google calendar for the Google account A using an Android mobile phone. It works OK, two ways syncing, no problem. I have removed account A from the mobile and then added it back, but the problem still persists

I did not find in the settings menu of the Google calendar any choices/particular settings to select in order to solve the problem. The problem does not seem to be connected with Jolla C, since the phone behaves differently for the two Google accounts. The problem does not seem to be with the A account, since phones with two different OS (Linux and Android) behave totally different Please, can you advise what to do, or to whom should I address this questions? Thank you for patience and help, Anca Marton

Hi Anca,

It sounds like an error toward the end of the sync cycle is causing the changes to be reverted. You can get more information about the sync by following the steps at https://sailfishos.org/wiki/CalDAV_and_CardDAV_Community_Contributions#Sync_Logs but changing the command at step 5 to be: devel-su journalctl -af | grep google-cal and then triggering sync with the Google account which is causing issues.

If you email the logs (after redacting any personal information) to chris dot adams at jolla dot com I will try to investigate further.

Thanks, Chris.
