Calendar Conduit is set back to 'Do Nothing' after setting it to Synchronize, and Calendar Items do not Sync.

So you are facing a problem setting the Calendar items! Check out this article to resolve the issue.

This issue occurs when we are trying to sync your Outlook Calendar with your device.

Set the conduit action for Calendar to "Synchronize the files," but when you perform a HotSync operation, the conduit is re-set to "Do Nothing" and your Calendar info is not transferred.

Why is this happening:

If you have set up an Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) account in VersaMail, the Calendar conduit will be disabled.While  performing  a HotSync operation, Calendar items are not transferred. They can be only transferred when we sync wirelessly with an EAS account in VersaMail. This is because EAS wirelessly syncs the Calendar directly with the Exchange server. In order to prevent duplicates, VersaMail (and EAS) disables the Calendar conduit for HotSync.

If we use EAS, we have a choice that we can either sync wirelessly with VersaMail's EAS, or can delete the EAS account and sync your Calendar via HotSync but we cannot choose to sync only email with EAS; our option is to sync email and calendar, or not to use EAS.

Deleting  the EAS account and enable the Calendar conduit in HotSync:

Note: Be forewarned, this method will disable all synchronization via EAS (both email and calendar), and delete all email from the EAS account on your device.
  1. On your device, launch VersaMail.

  2. Open the menus. From the Accounts > Account Setup.

  3. Highlight the account that uses EAS, and select Delete.

  4. You'll see a message: "Your Exchange ActiveSync account syncs both email and calendar. If you delete it, the email account in VersaMail will be removed and all info in your device Calendar will be deleted. Do you want to continue? " Select Yes.

  5. Your email for this account and your calendar will be deleted.

  6. Now, you can change the conduit action for Calendar to "Synchronize the files" and it will stay that way. The next time you sync, your Outlook Calendar items will be restored to your device from your local Outlook client.
