    How do I force Deja Calendar to transfer it's data to Android Calendar???

    I have have DejaOffice 1.11.9 running on my Hero. How to I force the Dejaoffice Calendar data onto the Android Calendar. When I sync with outlook it all goes well and I get the correct data on the Deja calendar it would be nice to get that on the android calendar as well. I'm afraid to push the "read Android Data" button as I don't want the android data to over write Deja I want Deja to overwrite the android. Any idea's??

    Thanks for the help....

    Read Android Data is a 2-way sync with the native Android data and DJO. The Android accounts to be used can be set up in DJO's preferences. If you already have data in native Android contacts and/or in DJO, the data is merged.
    To avoid duplicates it is important to not sync the native Android accounts selected to Google!
    What is your end goal?
    Google Pixel, Android 10 German, DJO 4.4.32 (1221)
    Office: Win10 x64, Outlook 365 (v2020, up to date) German, CL Express 7062 --- Local WiFi sync --- manual syncing, daily
    Home: Win10 x64, Outlook 365 (v2020, up to date) German, CL Express 7062 --- Local WiFi sync --- manual syncing, occasionally
    Syncing to native Android contacts (DJO account), not syncing to native Android calendar

      Hi Lisa,

      McLion is correct here, but I also want to point out some warnings. DejaOffice can Sync with he native Android Calendar App.
      Duplicates can occur if you have events already in your Android Calendar.
      Please keep in mind that Outlook and Google calendar applications have some incompatibilities. So you may see some interesting and possibly random anomalies.


      If you are wanting to get your Outlook Calendar synced to your Google Calendar there are easier ways. Especially with CompanionLink 5.0, because it supports multiple sync profiles.

        Well I kind of figured it out and it worked so I think that is what's most important. I pressed the "Sync with Android App" and sure enough it combined data. So I did a purge and reload of the Deja Calendar and got the Deja Calendar correct again. Then I powered down my android and turned it back on and it loaded all the new and correct Deja calendar info. So I think I got it. I do not sync with Google at all so I don't worry about that but for now I'm good it seems.

        Thank you guys for your help..............

          Lisa,

          You are very welcome. With DejaOffice configured this way, it will sync with Android every time you sync with CompanionLink. Or when you tap the Read Android Data Icon.
