Update – Google Disabled the functionality of the their software on\u00a0\u00a0August 1, 2014 – DAMMIT – Now what?*<\/h5>\n

If you try to run your life using Microsoft Outlook and an Android phone, you know how hard \/ difficult \/ impossible that can be since December of 2012.<\/p>\n

In the olden days, Google let us sync our Outlook calendars with our free Google Calendars, and it worked just great. I was using primarily Outlook 2007 but I know it still works with Outlook 2010 also.<\/p>\n

Then, last summer, Google decided they’ll eventually be needing more money,\u00a0 and they announced the end of life on their old sync tool.<\/p>\n

They warned that downloads would be eventually be unavailable, and nearly a year ago, December 12th, they took down the file.\u00a0 ;(<\/p>\n

\"Google<\/p>\n

A couple of weeks ago I made the jump to a new computer (Intel I-7 multicore\u00a0 \/ 2tb SATA III HD \/ 32g RAM \/ Windows 8).<\/p>\n

As an Outlook user since 1995, I reinstalled my Microsoft Outlook 2007, imported my .pst file and I was back in business, or so I thought.<\/p>\n

I didn’t even realize it at first, absent-mindedly dragging an email about a conference call to my calendar, only to be out of the office at the designated time, and with no reminder or phone number, I was screwed. Ugh.<\/p>\n

I started looking online and came across this page<\/a>, where Google says:<\/p>\n

Starting Jan. 30, 2013, only Google Apps for Business, Government, and Education customers can set up new devices with Google Sync.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sure enough, their old page<\/a> clarifies further:<\/p>\n

Starting January 30, 2013, users, other than paid Google Apps users, won’t be able to set up new devices using Google Sync.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wait a minute…<\/h5>\n

Suppose I WANT to keep using Outlook? Suppose I DON’T want to turn my mail domain over to Google Apps? It’s not that I mind paying for service, but I prefer to pay my web host for email?<\/p>\n

Google is telling me I can’t use their phone \/ calendar anymore unless I either change my mail service or give up Outlook?<\/p>\n

And as a further slap in the face, they HAVE something that will work that’s been free for years, but now they’re not going to give it to me anymore? Seriously? I NEED items added to my phone appear in my Outlook, and vice-versa!<\/p>\n

Support and download are [Not Provided]<\/h5>\n

Although Google did discontinue making it available for download, and any support from them is completely non existent, I’ve got it.<\/p>\n

Here is the .exe download of Google Sync 0.9.4.1<\/span><\/a> – It’s tiny and its safe, but if you prefer, here it is zipped<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
