GME Calendar Sync Instructions

Sync the GME Calendar with Your Outlook Calendar
The GME Calendar Sync v2.0 plugin will sync events from the GME calendar onto your personal Outlook calendar. This plugin includes some enhancements over the first version of the plugin including:

• Automatically syncing GME events to your calendar
• Including reminders for synced events

Limitations of this plugin:

• GME Events can only be added to your main calendar. If you have multiple calendars, this plugin may not function properly
• Any changes made to events placed on your calendar by the GME Sync plugin will get overwritten each time the calendar is synced.
• The plugin will NOT make any changes to items you have manually added to your calendar.

After installation, if you open your calendar in Outlook, you will see a GME Calendar section on the Calendar ribbon:

Click the Sync Settings button to choose which events you want included on your personal calendar.
GME Sync Settings Screen

1. These checkboxes should be checked for each type of event that you wish to be included in your calendar when a sync occurs.
2. These checkboxes should be checked for each event that you are including on your calendar that you want a reminder to be included for. Regular meetings will have a reminder set 15 minutes before the meeting start time, and all-day events will have the reminder set the day before the event. Checking a reminder checkbox without the event sync checkbox will not do anything. An event must be checked AND the reminder checked for the event to sync with a reminder.
3. This button will cause all events to be checked
4. This button will cause all reminders to be checked.
5. This checkbox indicates that you wish for these calendar entries to be automatically synced. The sync will happen once per week, when Outlook is starting up.
6. This button will perform an immediate sync (based on the selected items)
7. This button will remove all entries placed on your calendar by the plugin. This will NOT disable syncing, and if you wish for syncing to be disabled, you also need to un-check the auto-sync checkbox( #5).

Close the window to save any changes made to the sync settings.
To manually initiate a sync after initial settings have been chosen, click the Sync Now button on the calendar ribbon.
