Calendar Indicator gives you quick access to your upcoming Google Calendar appointments, and doesn’t rely on any other software to get that information. This means you don’t need Evolution to see your appointments in the tray. Evolution, the Linux answer to Microsoft’s Outlook, is no longer included by default in Ubuntu. There’s a reason for this – it was occasionally buggy, frequently slow and too complicated for new users to figure out. But it also integrated nicely into Ubuntu, especially when it c (General)

Ubuntu LTS 12.04 Help desktop guide says the clock in the panel will show Evolution appointments but it does not. Is there a fix for this? https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu...-calendar.html I am happy with my Evolution calendar and the way it integrates with contacts birthdays so I do not wish to change things just get it working in the new LTS version

Microsoft’s web-based Outlook.com calendar is getting a visual refresh and a few new features today. With this update, the calendar now looks more like the rest of Microsoft’s online productivity tools and features the same “content over chrome” flat design that the company now uses across its product line-up.

Hi there,I have been trying to sync evolution with google calendar for the last couple of days (not full time, though ).

After having trouble once again with Thunderbird+Lightning after yesterday's updates, I decided to give Evolution a try. I'm liking it so far, but I have the following issue: all the events in my Google calendar which are set as recurrent (say every year, like a birthday) are not showing in my Evolution calendar.

I'm sure I had the google calendar type in evolution on opensuse 11.2, now I installed a fresh 11.3 and can't find the google calendar type when adding a calendar in evolution.

Am I missing something? is there something more I should install?

Actually, the main reason I use Evolution over Thunderbird is that I like its google calendar integration better then Thunderbird.

Hi all :dance:

Nice to be here.

I have Evolution syncing with my Google Calendar, which is working perfectly. However, this calendar's events do not show when I click the time on the top panel in Gnome 3, it shows an empty calendar and agenda.

Is there anyway to select my Google Calendar as the one to show here please?

Many thanks in advance :C

My Ubuntu PC and my Gnome calendar are both set to a correct timezone (Australia, Sydney). The default email/calendar client is Evolution, which is set to use the system timezone. The Network time slider shows ON. However, the notifications about my Google calendar appointments show up about 10-11 hours later. I cannot blame Google for that, since email reminders arrive on time.

Add new functionality to your Ubuntu panel. Whether you want to see the weather at a glance, disable your touchpad or manage your clipboard, indicator applets are what you’re looking for.
