Alexa says my Outlook Calander is empty but its not
« on: April 21, 2017, 06:46:52 am »
I set up the App and the Outlook calendar is selected.

When I ask Alexa to tell me what's in my calendar she says there are no entries for 30 days.

I sync my iPhone calendar with my Outlook calendar with no problems and I can see the entries in Outlook calendar ok.

Is there any way I can get the Echo Dot to read the Outlook calendar contents.

lol you're in calendar hell. I've been in calendar hell for five years. I think the only way I'll ever get out will be to pick ONE service (MS, Apple or Google) open a new account, start from scratch and NEVER try to sync different services. Ever since I tried to sync Apple and Google, nothing has ever worked right since, no matter what I tried, no matter which guide I followed to try to unscrew everything. It's horrible. Good luck.

I have all Apple and still have Calendar hell... I spent 7 days of spare time to try and sync Contacts too... It's mental whipping for sure.
