Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

I've updated my Yahoo! calendar to their new beta version, but webOS will not sync my calendar entries in either direction.  I've tired removing and re-addign the account as well.  Anyone else experiencing this?

 

Thanks

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

I just tested on my Pre and synced the accounts manually from the Pre to yahoo and it worked fine. Can you give me a step by step process on what you are doing so I can see if I can replicate your issue? Lastly have you done a restart on the device recently?

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

I got it to work and then broke it again. 

 

It started working when I created a new Yahoo account and tried syncing to that.  I was able to break it/ make it stop working by changing the name of the calendar on Yahoo's side.  So now it see the calendars new name and an additional calendar I created.  It will not, however, sync in either direction to either calendar.

 

This appears to be reproducable.  Now after adding/removing this account, it is still stuck in this stale state :smileysad:

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

Try going to you profile - linked accounts - uncheck "palm synergy" and palm messenger...remove the account from you phone, and restart your phone.

 

Do what you want to the Yahoo account remove add calendars etc.

 

 Re-synergize through the phone - Three days and seems to have worked for me.

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

I have the same problem as well.  The weird thing is...this is my 2nd Pre (1st had a hardware problem and had to be returned) and it worked fine on the first one.  Both handsets have had WebOS 1.3.1.

 

I spent an hour in chat with Palm support yesterday to no avail.  The technician said it is Yahoo's server problem.  I'll post back with any details after I hear back from Yahoo! Support.

 

woodiah: Where can you do that in your Palm Profile?  mine only has my login information and handset information.

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

I haven't heard from Yahoo! support yet...but i DID poke around a little bit...I created a new calendar on Yahoo!, and all of the sudden, it is syncing that calendar and my original.  Both ways.  But I can't delete the original calendar. 

 

But at least it's working!

Re: Yahoo! Calendar sync does not work

Actually you need to "un Link" in your yahoo profile, delete account from your phone, and reenter the account on your phone - I would suggest you restart before re-adding the account...

 

BTW, still working for me sine doing this.

  Have you updated the phone to webOS 1.3.1 before adding your Yahoo account?
