Hi, please do not charge my account the $50 at the end of 30 days.
Your system does not work. The below problem exists - and there's a bunch of
calendar items missing from my Plaxo calendar that are positively on
my Google calendar. Do NOT charge my credit card the $50 and please
reply to this email confirming this. If it doesn't even work during the
30 days, then it's not worth it for me to purchase this.


Original forum posts from yesterday not posted:
Hi, I'm on my 3rd day of my 30 day trial with Plaxo. As excited as I was to get started, I'm already at a halt and questioning if this is the solution for me.

First, I imported all of my Yahoo contacts. Since those were mainly just emails, I needed to start inputting everyone's addresses in... so I began by experimented with my own contact card and made changes, deleting the dupes. While it's just fine in Plaxo, somehow my own contact info disappeared from Yahoo. (I'm in a family Yahoo group)

And even though I pushed the "Sync with Yahoo" button in Plaxo, and it said it synced just fine, no where in Yahoo does my perfect little Plaxo contact card appear in Yahoo... it won't import to Yahoo.. which means that I now have extremely little faith that my friends contact cards will work any better...if I can't even get one fine card in Plaxo to appear in Yahoo.

FYI when you're troubleshooting this, I share my Google calendar with my husband and it works great there. On Plaxo however, I can't see any of the items that HE entered for HIS Google calendar that I also contribute to - I can only see items that I entered for HIS Google calendar. These entries were never made in Plaxo - only in Google. But I'd still like to see all in Plaxo. Make sense?

Hi.

As for your google question, right now we only sync down events from Google where YOU are the owner. Because you are not the owner of the events entered by your husband, we are not sync'ing. In the next release, we plan to fix this issue, and sync down events that you can edit even if you did not create them. Sorry about the inconvenience!

Sorry to hear that you are having problems with Yahoo sync. Which folder is your contact card created inside of? If your contact card entry is inside the folder "Contacts", then it won't sync back to Yahoo. In fact, any contact inside the "Contacts" folder won't sync back to Yahoo.

That's because your Yahoo account has been setup to sync to a different folder called "Yahoo Contacts (macwells77)". Any changes to this folder should sync to Yahoo.

Please let me know if this alleviates your problem.

Amber, do you have an ETA on this "next release?" This is the last major feature I need. Also, will we have to delete and re-add Google as a sync-point for these events (not created by us) to be added, or will it happen automatically? Thanks!

Hi. The next release should be around mid-July.

Thanks! Is there a way to know when you have issued a new release for the Google sync point? Are there release notes? Could you post on the forum when this happens? Thanks!
