HOWTO sync 2 local calendars to AEPIM?

[poet-man]

I know there is one calendar in AEPIM only! In options of WinEPIM I can choose, which calendar to sync.
Is it possible to sync a second calendar to AEPIM to make appear the events of that second calendar in AEPIM also?

How many calendars are synced to your WinEPIM?

Unfortunately not possible, see also the following articles:

@all
Will try to explain by an example, what I want to get.

There is "calendar1" in WinEPIM, containing all my events.
This calendar is synchronized by direct sync to AEPIM. So all events are both in WINEPIM and AEPIM.
Another calendar "meetings" is created in WinEPIM, containing all my meetings. Those appear in "meetings"-calendar only.
I want to sync the second calendar "meetings" from WinEPIM to AEPIM, so all events/meetings appear in AEPIM.

Thx.

Hello poet-man,

unfortunately it is not possible to synchronize two calendars with Android. Android only contains one calendar and that is the image of “one” calendar from WinEPIM.

The only possibility is to set up two synchronizations in WinEPIM - one for each calendar, whereby only one transfer of appointments from WinEPIM to Android is possible. A two-way synchronization is not possible, then the appointments of the other calendar would be deleted. Deletion must also be deactivated in the synchronization options for one-way synchronization.

Otherwise, the only option is to merge the “calendar1” and “meetings” calendars into one calendar (move appointments from one calendar to the other). You can then filter the appointments using additional categories (or an additional order field) “calendar1” and “meetings”. Before copying, you should already assign the appointments to the corresponding category.

Good luck M&M

M&M:
In my S23+ I can display the events of more than one calendar in only a single calendar, the Samsung Calendar. The SSung Calendar app permits this. None of my EPIM events display in the Samsung Calendar, except the Birthdays/Anniversaries/Holidays. I suspect that the only solution would be to create the two calendars in the WinEPIM, but I think your goal is to not co-mingle the events.

Hello M&M,
so I understand I can sync two calendars from WinEPIM to AEPIM by using two different syncronisations, one after the other? This will let me have all events of the two calendars in AEPIM?

Hello poet-man,

I haven't tried it myself yet, but in my opinion it is the only option, but in any case “make a backup before trying it out”. However, it is important to deactivate the delete option for one-way synchronization. In addition, a reverse one-way synchronization from AEPIM to WinEPIM will probably produce errors or duplicates, as each synchronization usually leaves markers. Errors and duplicates can possibly be reduced by restricting the synchronization period - unfortunately it cannot be specified.

In any case, the one-way synchronization from AEPIM to WinEPIM will synchronize “all” appointments from both WinEPIM calendars that are in the AEPIM calendar to “one” of the two WinEPIM calendars.

As you can see, it is not a perfect solution if the calendars on Windows and Android are to be kept up to date, but copying appointments from two calendars from WinEPIM to AEPIM should possibly work.

Good luck M&M
