ich nutze Facebook Kontakt Sync zum synchronisieren meiner Facebook
Kontakte.
Dieses stellt das Datum im Format mm/tt/jjjj dar.
Leider ordnet birthday adapter das Datum dadurch nicht korrekt an.

Beispielsweise Geburtstag am 11/25/1960 wird als 11.01.1960 angezeigt oder
Geburtstag am 02/09/1964 als 09.02.1964

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Have some contacts with birthdays
2. Sync the adapter
3. Use the Android Calendar Widget from Google

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
On the birthday itsself, the event isn't shown in the widget. The days before it is shown. Other "all day" events, that i create manually in the calendar, are shown too.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I use the newest version on Android 4.2.1 on a Galaxy Nexus.

Please provide any additional information below.
I think there is some parameter, that isn't set, please have a look at this.

Long have I searched for an app that syncs my contact's birthdays with my calendar and now I have found this app. I had another app for this purpose before, but it stopped working properly, so I'm glad to have an alternative and Birthday Adapter is great. It's simple, it's beautiful (most birthday apps look awful) and it's functional.

But for me it needs one more feature to be perfect and that is an option to specify an existing calendar to sync the birthdays to.
The reason is that I need to sync the birthday calendar with my notebook and my desktop PC. I don't know how it's on "plain" Android, but on my HTC I'm not able to sync the birthday calendar with my Google calendars.
An option for syncing the birthday calendar with Google or using an existing calendar would be an awesome feature.

3 events back and 5 future event

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.7 (same since 1.4)

Please provide any additional information below.
In general would be not a huge issue, but when somebody synchronize the calendar, there is everyday a forced sync of all the signle events of all people.
I would either prefer an option to setup eg. only upcomming year birthdays or create a repeated event (means 1 event with a frequency of 1x per year).

Birthday Adapter obeys the system setting to do no synchronization if the system sync toggle is disabled.

• Should Birthday Adapter obey this setting?
  Normally user disable sync to save bandwidth. Birthday Adapter does not use the internet
• We should include a notice about that problem in the Help activity

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
These birthdays do not show up in the calendar view (I'm thinking it's because the year listed (the year the person was born) is obviously not the same the current year). I expect (or would hope) that the application will show these birthdays for current months.

A feature request for something that I assumed to be a standard feature for a birthday adapter: It would be really great to include the age of the person in the name of the calendar event.

This probably goes hand-in-hand with the feature request to customize the event names.
http://code.google.com/p/birthday-adapter/issues/detail?id=12

So for me an ideal formatting would be (in German):
Geb. <FirstName> <LastName> (<Age>)

and in case there isn't a year defined with the birthday
Geb. <FirstName> <LastName>

But one thing to make it even better, can you update the reminder field to

I have just purchased this app, installed it and I see an issue.

I have my contacts synchronised to iCloud through SmoothSync and have the contacts with birthdays properly in the phone. However, the birthdays are for some shown correctly, but for most shown on the wrong date. It is not an issue of dd/mm and mm/dd reversal.

Could it be that contacts of which I entered a full date including year in the iMac Calendar, that they show ok. And the ones without a year in the date, which are, by SmoothSync, taken over as year 1604 in the Android, show up wrong?

On my phone I'm using birthday-adapter on my Owncloud address book synced with CalDav-Sync. However, the dates of the generated events do not match the birthdays at all.

This is probably due to my phone using timestamps as a date format (see [1]).

For example the date 1989-12-24 becomes September 4 in the calendar. With another contact editor [2] the birthday field contains 627943569622. Divide this by 1000 and you get a Unix timestamp that matches the birthday (and the time seems to match the time I entered it -- for whatever reason).

I would suggest to either auto-detect the date format or make it configurable.
