Can BlackBerry's Outlook calendar and a public calendar sync?
BlackBerry Enterprise Server will only transfer personal Outlook calendar data, not public calendar data, to a BlackBerry device. Here's a third-party solution that may help.
I want to share a BlackBerry user's Microsoft Outlook calendar with the public folder calendar, so that they will be one and the same. I want to synchronize the calendars since the BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) will only transfer the user's personal calendar data -- not the public calendar data -- to his handheld device. Can this be done?
I assume this request is for
Over The Air (OTA) support. BlackBerry Enterprise Server for Microsoft Exchange doesn't currently have native support for synchronizing to an enterprise user's device calendar from multiple sources (i.e., a combination of personal calendar, public folder calendar, SharePoint calendar, shared calendar, etc.). As you mention, with what's offered out of the box, only OTA synchronization from the personal calendar is what's currently featured.
