Sync Zone can't connect to Gmail

[TheJu]

Hi,

My Sync Zone can't connect to my Gmail Account. Domain name is .......@gmail.com. All is proper set up but it fail atthe connection.

Is anybody having the same issue?

Does it exist any alternative to synchronize contact and calendar with my Xperia Ion?

Thank you for your help

Ju!

This could be caused by a firewall blocking PC Companion from connecting to the internet. If you have a firewall installed, make sure it's set to allow PC Companion.

If your internet connection goes through a proxy you may also have to enter your proxy in PC Companion. Click PC Companion settings at the top right and then go to proxy settings.

If you use MS Outlook with MS Exchange you could also synchronize directly with MS Exchange from the phone. Go to Settings -> Accounts and sync in the phone and add a new account with your settings (you get these from your IT-department).

You could also try the 3:rd party application MyPhoneExplorer from www.fjsoft.at.

I'm having the same problem. I have added PCCompanion 2.1 to my firewall but it made no difference. How do I know whether PCCompanion can communicate with google servers?

It struck me that I had google two step login verification enabled. In the google account settings I found the option to generate a specific one-step login for an application. If I used this password PCCompanion could connect too Google. Voila!
