Settings / Accounts & Sync  >  what does it show for HOTMAIL ??  Should say "SYNC is ON" .. if not, click on it and change it.

Cody21,

Thanks for the reply.

That did not help. When I go into calendar settings and accounts to sync my hotmail address is not there to select, only phone calendar and gmail. I don't use my gmail account at all, only Outlook/Hotmail.

Is there a way to add my hotmail account to the list of accounts that sync the calendar.

Everything was working fine with the syncing until I upgraded to ICS.

I'm afraid it may have effected my contact sync but I have not looked into that yet

Hotmail email comes in fine

I'd delete the Account on the phone and start over ... (e.g., uninstall the App - reinstall, then go into ADD ACCOUNT)  When you add Hotmail, select "OTHER" and set it up from there.  The default email accounts that are in that selection panel are problematic, in my experience.  Does that make sense?

How stupid !! I should have thought of that right at the beginning

Uninstalled the Hotmail app then reloaded. Hotmail sync is now an option on the calendar

Checked as default then synced. Did not think it was doing anything because there were no appoints showing up, I was disappointed

But then about 15 minuted later I checked again and all the appointments were there

Thank you for the help

You're most welcome ... and I think 15 mins is the fastest time allowed for auto-syncing ...  of course you can always immediate Sync by opening the App or using a widget (ala Power Control).

I stumbled upon this, and hoping you might help a Verizon brother out. I just go the HTC Incredible 4G LTE, which has no forum of its own at this moment, so I'm replying here in part for that reason. This is an ICS phone.

All I want is to get my Hotmail Calendar to be my default calendar. I installed the Hotmail App, and I get the calendar items into my calendar no problem. But if I add a new event on my phone's calendar, it never propogates to the hotmail.com site itself. This is vital for me. Any ideas?
