I had my cell set up at one time but changed it and since then have never been able to set it up again. It always says the verification code has been sent but i never receive it on my cell. any ideas what i should do?

You shouldn’t need one, particularly if your primary calendar is there. Go into the calendar settings on your phone and see if the other calendars are listed but not set to be displayed or to synchronize.

Do I need a new verification code when I get a new cell phone with the same number? (I can’t get my new phone to show any thing but the primary calendar.)

@Rosemary, I don’t believe you can setup multiple phones. However, here is an idea.. Setup an email account for managing the calendar. Then, setup a rule that forwards email notifications from the calendar to each of the cell phones you want to receive notifications.

I’ll look a little more to see if there are other solutions.

When setting up the “mobile settings” is there a way to have multiple cell numbers getting notifications?

Another option is to use RSS feeds. Check out this video:

With that you get your Google Calendar events directly to the startscreen of your mobile phone.

Im using both the sms notifications and the RSS feeds and its fantastic.

Matt – really clear explanation of how useful Google Calendar could be and how to set it up. Thank you.
