I'm using different Google calendars to organize my appointments, birthdays and non-Business stuff.
Though Microsoft offers a nice Service called oulook.com. It includs Mail service, Calendar, Contacts and Space. Very great but for now I stay on Google. Not in the mood to change Service.
Now using Windows 8 on my Notebooks I don't wanted to abandon using my Google calenders within this new fancy calendar app. The Problem is, if you link to your Google account, only the first calendar will be added. According to the Internet community this is not the fault of Microsoft but rather of Google.
Anyway adding all your Google calendars need a workaround.
I will give you a short summarize of the solution I found on the Internet. For further reading you can compare the following reference : http://stadt-bremerhaven.de/mehrere-google-kalender-mit-windows-8-synchronisieren/
- Download an Add-On for your browser (Chrome or Firefox) which customizes your identity the browser sent to the website. In this case the Add-On makes Google belive that you are using an iPad or iPhone. Both apps for Chrome and Firefox are called "User Agent Switch".
- Then you have to de-activate JavaScript in your Browser temorary.
- Open the following adress: m.google.com/sync
If you don't see any possibility for login with your Google account, then instead search after this adress and access the page through the search result. - Log in with your Google account and click on "Windows Mail"
- Then you have to change the adress in the adressbar.
From " SupportMultiCalendars=false "
To " SupportMultiCalenders=true " , without the " . - Press Enter and now you can choose between your Google calendars.
- Open Windows Calendar App and resync your data. The new calendars will appear.
For further reading and extensive instruction compare the link above or search on your own.
Thanks for reading.
Greetings
/Edit:
A new App was puplished named "GSync" to avoid the described way aboth. You can find the App in the Windows 8 App Store
