Annoying Calendar widget problem
 
I hope someone can help. I've been having a problem with the calendar widget not displaying my entries properly and keeps missing entries out. For example it will list an entry for 15th,16th,17th,19th and 20th when in fact there is an entry that should be displayed for the 18th that is not shown, yet it is showing an event on the 20th. I can see it fine when I go into month view but not on desktop, which defeats the object of having the widget. Please help, this is driving me mad. I have already tried deleting the widget and reinstalling it.

Just what i expirenced. See here.
It seems to me that it happens only to synced entries? Can you confirm? Every Entry i created in the phone calendar showed up so far.

What is different about the entry for the 18th when compared to that of the other days? Is it a different calendar? Anything?

So i just were lucky so far. Thats actually a good thing, so the problem is definitely in the Widget or Calender. I thought it would be more complex. I'll try some things tomorrow and will file a bug if i don't get a solution. (If you or someone else don't do it first) ;)

After todays update the Widget is even worse. Now i have only one entry in the list. There are more in my calendar of course.

Same problem here.

I have 2 entries for January, then 2 empty spaces which were showing entries for February before the update to PR1.1

Apparently it only shows the items for the next two weeks. It was a bug that made it show your next five entries irrespective of when they were. In other words the calendar widget was much better with the bug.:confused:

But then there shouldn't be any empty spaces if there are no entries within the next 2 weeks. Otherwise, the calendar widget takes more space on the desktop than it requires.
I really think that we should have a setting that would allow users to adjust the time period for which to show entries in the calendar widget.

have to agree with that - would like to see out further than 2 weeks myself. On the plus side I do notice that tasks now show up on the widget.

You're right. I just realized this myself:) However, I really see no difference between setting up a memo or a task - either way the point is to be reminded of something.

Today is Friday. I have a birthday next Friday which is shown twice. One from the calendar and one smart from the contact. This is ok for me.
Also i have a 3 Day Event starting friday in 2 weeks which lasts till sunday. Shouldn't it show that by now to?

I also agree that it would be nice to also fill the widget even if there are not enough events in the next 2 weeks.

i experienced the same thing , i have sinced turned the widget of for saving battery..

sadly all the widgets on the n900 are not doing it justice- they drain to much battery and some (like calender ) doesnt work

-some entries (manually not sync) are not showing up in the widget like for e.g : 1.2, 2.3 it would skip 5.3 but show 8.5 instead
