Lotus Notes sync - dissapointing

Is the Droid supposed to sync Calendars or not? I'm only getting mail, and not even an option to sync Calendars.

Also, although the mNotes monitor supports multiple mail accounts and calendars (which I DESPERATELY desire), It's unclear how to set that up on the Android side of things. Any help there?

Check out this post in a different thread:

http://androidforums.com/application-requests/1307-lotus-notes-2.html#post273846

It describes how I set up my Droid with mNotes. It also describes the calendar sync. (Your calendar sync option won't appear until you have entered the Corporate Calendar app. Once you do - the calendar will sync as you watch. The sync option will also be available in the Accounts and Sync entry when you go back to it)...

Can't help with multiple email accounts. Not sure how to do that.
 
Thanks. Bizarre but true! Not at work right now so not seeing any events yet but at least that enabled the option.

I don't think multiple e-mail /calendar is really setup entirely how I need it to be necessarily, but I will see (two email accounts, both with different Notes IDs). Looks like it was syncing to one or the other but not both simultaneously, depending on where Notes was logged in to as primary location.

Hi dshay

As the other posts say, calendar sync is possible. It is strange that it is not even giving you an option. I think it would be worth opening a support ticket for this so our team are aware of the issue. It may be a simple settings issue, that the Support Team can deal with quickly, but if there is a bug of any kind R&D will want to know asap.

Click here to go to the Support section of our site and log in to the Members Portal (or create an account) and open a support case / ticket. Someone will be in touch soon.

Hope you get fixed up soon! :)
 
mNotes requires going through a CommonTime server which is a security issue for those with restriction of not going through a third party server.
 
For Calender and Contacts but not email, which is all I want, I just found AweSync. It works and is easy to set up.

+1! My trial expires in a few days, and (unlike with CompanionLink) I haven't had a single problem, so I'm registering.
 
Just wanted to report back that I finally got mNotes working on my Droid. It was a combo on notes.ini issues and address book problems but support was excellent in diagnosing. It's working great!
