Notices

hm.. after yesterdays update I get an Permission denied when I try to launch mcalender.launch from the commandline..

/usr/lib/mcalendar/mcalendar_ui.py: Permission denied

anyone else got that one to work?

Just upgraded to homecalendar 1.0.0-3...

Anyone notice that cpu / memory usage are abnormally high?

And/Or that the tablet reboots randomly? (reboots seem to be gone after turning homecalendar off)


Otherwise, the latest version is VERY nice. I really like the ability to edit the applet settings.


FWIW: after the upgrade to 0.5.9 (mCalendar) I had all kinds of problems syncing with Google. I finally resolved 90% of the errors by purging "old" entries directly from GCal in an effort to lessen the amount of entries mCalendar had to deal with: SUCCESS!

@Khertan: Keep up the great work! (any word on mContacts?)

lately i had noticed a whole lot of python processes running now and then that made no sense. today i finally figured it out. its mcalendar_sync.py...

funny thing is that i have unchecked auto sync in the google prefs tab...

Maybe I overread that here, but I think I have a problem not mentioned yet:

I finally got mcalendar to sync with google (had to deinstall ermine/calendar and mcalendar for that and reinstall mcalendar), but after syncing nothing appeared in mcalendar. Might this be due to my many gcals? How do I choose the calendar synced by mcal? Or would it sync all (I read sth. to the contrary in this thread)?

Thanks for any helpful reply.

Mine syncs fine but I no longer have any "All Day" events listed anywhere. I also no longer see the date in Home Calendars display. Am I missing something?

I am glad to report that my synchronization now miracolously works.
However, now I've got that problem, too, that recurring events are not synced.

Moreover I am wondering why, if I sink my work calendar (which I did not choose, by the way), entries I made in mCalendar are entered into my Google Calendar as my private calendar after syncing.
Are there any solutions to that issue?

By now I am even pondering the idea of rsyncing a sunbird-calendar file just so I can use my Google Calendar on my N810. You see: I am desperate for answers to these issues.

Hey, I seem to be having some trouble with mcalendar. I just installed it and it worked fine at first. But the next day when I opened the application it just froze. I got the message saying that mcalendar was not responding and I was prompted to close it. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling with no success. It just freezes up right away now. Anyone having or had the same issue? Any suggestions?

verumgero,
I've found that uninstalling via Application Manager does not remove the mcalendar data files. You may need to do this manually. I'm not a very experienced hand at Linux, but I was able to do this using Midnight Commander. I usually use emelfm2, but the icons are pretty cryptic in emelfm2 and I couldn't figure out how to do a search for "mcalendar*.*" in emelfm2. Also, when I tried the "find" command in X-Terminal, I kept getting the "too many files/folders opened error".
In Midnight Commander (aka MC), I was able to find the mcalendar pref file and database file (after running find "mcalendar" and then stumbling around a bit) and delete them. After that, a reinstallation of mcalendar worked fine.
As an aside, I had to uninstall Midnight Commander because my n810 was rebooting shortly after anytime I connected to the internet. I had installed the mileage app and Midori at the same time as MC, so I'm not sure if those were problems too. Before I uninstalled MC, I ran the hometools applet to see what happened to cause the reboots. I noticed that, whenever I connected wirelessly, my Total Memory would drop quickly from about 70000 k to 17000 k before the tablet rebooted. I've not had this problem since I uninstalled MC and the mileage app. (I had previously uninstalled Midori by itself, but still had the problem until I also uninstalled mileage and Midnight Commander).

As mentioned above, uninstalling leaves your database. It needs to be removed manualy. From xterm that is:
rm ./.mPIM/mcalendar.db

That will remove all apointments and user preferences.

I'm using the one in http://repository.maemo.org/extras/
diablo | free non-free
mCalendar 0.4.5

The first sync only gets to 60%, then finally completed after 15 min. Future sync attemps [edit: Now work after deleting my database]

I'm running 0.5.9. It gets my list of calendars, but doesn't fetch any appointments, or upload any. The log just shows:

Connected to google
GCal list refreshed
Try to connect...
Connected to google
Sync finished

I just tried removing the database, but that made no difference.
