Cal widget does not update.

My cal widget does not update each day. I have to reboot to update. Any ideas?

go to applications and in your calendar settings erase all data to do a reset. This might work.

If you are using Gmail's calendar, or Outlook via your Gmail account, check to make sure settings on both ends are set to sync. With Gmail, the sync is instantaneous -- make a change on PC or X and the change is in both places right away.

If you're not using Gmail calendar, consider it as a very good option. You don't even need Outlook. Outlook becomes an extra step that isn't needed if you work directly with your Gmail account calendar.

Keep a close eye on that calendar widget. I tried a few and found them to suck the life out of my battery. Finally just stuck with a calendar app.

I agree on a calendar widget where your schedule is always in sight. But if you just use a calendar icon and click it when needed, the battery drain isn't an issue. The Motorola widget calendar icon works well for me, using Gmail's calendar.

Same problem. CalWidget does not update automatically.

I love the CalWidget. I have mine set to display four days - today and the upcoming three days. After a day passes, only three days are displayed. After two days, only two days are displayed. Also, any new calendar events that have been added do not show up in the CalWidget. I have to turn off my calendars, turn them back on, then refresh the CalWidget to get it to update. I have it set to refresh automatically every 30 minutes and it isn't updating at all.

Does any know a fix for this? Thanks.
