Google Calendar Location Question

[zeravla531]

This may be a simple fix, but when i put locations into my Google calendar, they do not sync with my phone.

Is there something i'm not doing or missing?

Thanks in advance.

Just a bump... any reason when i fill in the location of a calendar event, it does not show up in my Calendar on my phone?

Thanks

Works fine for me. You are using normal google sync not exchange sync right.

Just regular Google sync. I'll put something into my Google calendar, put a location, then when i check it on my phone, the location isn't there.

Same issue here. If I create it on my computer, it does not show the location on my phone.

If I create it on my phone, the location will sync back with the Google Calendar on my PC just fine.

I ran into this problem by accident. Some how I had disabled Calendar sync, while screwing around to get it back on I had edited some events on my Google Calendar from my computer. I have two interviews tomorrow and figured it would be good to put the best possible information in the location (full address).

I noticed that if the full address was in the location field it would not sync to the phone but as soon as I switched it back to just the name of the schools it immediately synced.

So.......are you guys using addresses or names?

HI,

might be possible this location is not in Google map so you have to make any other near place.

It was full addresses i was putting in.. maybe that's the problem. But if that's the problem, then that's a problem.

I agree with you on that. Such an oddity.
