iPhone multiple calendars in 5.0.8?

[tonythemediaguy]

Can anybody confirm that we will be able to access multiple calendars in the iPhone 2.0 software with 5.0.8?

I've read the other threads, but nobody came out and said that. Just hinted that was what was coming up.

So far 5.0.7 works great with the syncing!

5.0.8 will be an maintenance release to fix a bug in 5.0.7, so there's no difference between 5.0.7 and 5.0.8 as far as mobile sync goes.

We'll try to get this in 5.0.9 though. Thanks!

Might be worth voting on bug 29749 if this is important to you (Bug 29749 – iPhone 2.0 should be able to sync multiple calendars).

I know from our installation, that a lack of this functionality might be a show stopper in further deploying Zimbra beyond the current pilot.

this is fixed now. multiple address books and multiple calendars will be supported when 5.0.9 comes out.

Any chance that we can get a hotfix/patch before 5.0.9 release? (If not, can you let us know the rough target date for release of 5.0.9?)

[jjzhuang]

no date yet for 5.0.9. we usually don't do hotfix/patch for non-critical issues. if this is really important to you, please contact support so that they can evaluate the urgency.

Does this only apply to iPhone? Or can all ActiveSync devices sync multiple calendars and address books?

Nevermind, I see from the bug that it's iPhone only. It would be nice if Zimbra could coalesce multiple calendars into one for sync to other devices.

vs. which other calendars? If you can't see more of your own, personal calendars, that may be an issue with what they are called (not sure if that issue was addressed in 5.0.9 or not). If you can't see calendars that have been shared to you, that's not supported at the moment (see other threads on the same topic for the entire kerfuffle).
