How can I sync my contacts and calendar to gmail with my microsoft surface?

I read the various forums, which suggests that the only way to do this is in two steps to verify (and a specific application password). I'm not sure what the latest guidance are that I have read the various forums with people with no problems using the most obvious way of the implementation of the account; through the add account wizard.

I managed to configure E-mail synchronization by adding a gmail imap server, but that the surface does not give me the opportunity to also synchronize contacts and calendars - y at - it another way to do this?

I'll use the two-step verification if I have to, but would rather not as I often connect from computers at work (where there is poor signal phone to receive a verification code). If I disabled the two-step verification after you set up the account on my surface I would lose my ability to synchronize, or could I just changed the password of account registered to my regular password?

Hello again matbence,

Given that Google has ended in favour of the Regional service, Google Calendar and contacts are problematic, with no way to port/synchronization for Surface applications. You could install the app Google Search of the store Windows, which would provide easy access to Gmail, Google Calendar, and 10 other Google apps.

  • How can I only restore contacts and calendar but not the system after factory reset settings?

    Hello

    I have an iPhone 5.  I forgot the password of restrictions long ago and no backups prior to that date.  I want to do a factory reset.  How can I do this while keeping a copy of my contacts, notebooks, lists and schedules, so I can re - sync after the reset?  I don't want to re - sync system settings that my backup plays up and want to do a clean install of the main parameters.

    All advice appreciated.

    You need to store your contacts and calendars on your computer or Cloud Computing service.

  • How can I sync my iPhone and Apple Watch to a new computer without losing any data?

    I'm about to fix my laptop and I need to change my iTunes on PC. But I don't want to lose any data on the health of the Apple Watch.

    Copy of the data of all iTunes from the laptop to PC will have all my apps and music. But what about the backup? They are encrypted to record data on the health of my Apple Watch.

    Can I copy and paste the encrypted data backup iTunes?

    Please I need help.

    Move an encrypted backup from one computer to another value may not work, but as long as no device should be restored now you should be able to migrate from the library to the new computer and then take a fresh encrypted backup of each device.

    Migrate a library iTunes from one computer to another

    These are two approaches that work normally to move an existing library to a new computer.

    Method 1

    1. Save the library with this trick of the user.
    2. Remove the old computer if you no longer wish to access content protected on it.
    3. Restore the backup to your new computer by using the same tool used to back it up.
    4. Keep your current backup in the future.

    Method 2

    Connect the two computers on the same network. Share your old computer < user music > folder and copy the folder of library full iTunes in the < user music > on the new folder. Yet once, remove the old computer so is no longer necessary.

    These two methods should give the new computer, a clone of the library work which was on the former. What about iTunes is it is still the 'home' for your devices library you should not have problems with iTunes will erase and reload.

    I recommend method 1 because it establishes a current backup for your library.

    Note If you have iOS devices and that you have not reached your contacts and calendar all in all items, then you need to create a dummy entry in your new profile and iTunes expected to merge existing data from the device.

    If your media folder has been separated in the main folder of iTunes, you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a library of portable split.

    If you are in the unfortunate position where you're able to access your original library or a backup and then see recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device to get tips on how to configure your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Unable to sync Outlook Contacts and calendar for pre

    I spent 8 hours or more trying to move my contacts to the front.  More than 2 hours with a Palm technician who sounded like he was asleep, knew very little about what he talked and eventually disconnected the call when everything he has tried has not worked. (I was not rude and was very patient with his lack of interest). Tried again today for 3 hours and eventually gave up and took the phone to the Sprint Store.  The hype on the phone was misleading on its incompatibility with Outlook. Being a small business, I don't have Microsoft exchange and do not have time to change my contacts to another system, such as Google or others.  I returned to my dinosaurs Palm 700 p that works very well and will update in 5 minutes. or less with my computer.   I hope that Palm will have a different point of view on the absence of HotSync direct phone/computer.   Otherwise nice phone and features, but must say that pre seems very fragile compared to the Treo and Blackberry. A major concern with the amount of abuse my Treo 700 p gets!

  • How can I reinstall 24.6 and prevent the update with 31 Thunderbird

    Thunderbird 31 screw to the top of my email addresses. The background of the header becomes blue and when I enter names, most appear in red ink. It does not call the addresses in my address book using my letters abbreviated as done to 24.6 and replaces the names until I have to spell the full name.

    I continue to do system restore to return 24.6 & want to block the future Thunderbird updates so that I can keep 24.6. If this is not the case, how can I fix this ugly replacement.

    Get out your computer offline before installing TB > open TB > open the Options window > go to Advanced settings > Update tab > then you can change the way TB updates.

    NOTE: these steps are for TB 31 +, TB24 + may be a little different.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones can only synchronize only Contacts and calendar?

    I wanted to replace my Palm Treo with the new BlackBerry 8310.  With the Palm, I could synchronize my calendar and contacts with Lotus Notes 7 through a 3rd party software without going through courier service.  It does not appear that I can install the BlackBerry software without e-mail service because he was unable to access Lotus Notes data.  Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the help of glasses bifocals!  I used Palm products so far and with this being my first BlackBerry device, I'm a novice user.  Your advice was helpful.  I did download the latest version of the Desktop Manager (4.6).  The LNOptions.dll with the 4.6 ends by works very well.  I found that I needed to open Desktop Manager then plug my 8310.  It's not as long as the phone is connected, I could set up my syncroization correctly.  Strange little sequence there, but you sent me down the correct path.

    Thanks again,

  • How can I sync my laptop and desktop, both are Macs, using Lr CC?

    I recently bought Lr CC and I'm working on my Mac laptop.

Thank you!

    The catalog and your images on a disc external hard is the logical and the best choice. You should be able to just use Lightroom to open the catalog on this external hard drive and work on computers. You can check your read/write permissions for the drive to ensure that you both on both computers.
