Calendar and Contact Sync question

I have been playing around with my droid 2 global for about a month now and just decided to see if I could get the contacts in my phone synced to my gmail. I have a lot of phone numbers in my phone but are not in my gmail account. The question is can I send my contacts in my phone to my gmail account? My assumption, just from what I have noticed, is that the droid 2 only has the ability to pull from the account not push to it. Is that a wrong assumption?

On to the calendar question. I have multiple calendars setup on my gmail account (mlb, nfl, college football, etc). For some reason the only calendar that syncs up is the US Holidays calendar. Is it possible to get the other calendars to sync with the droid calendar? If this is possible could someone please walk me through the process.

I have poked around on couple forums trying to solve these issue but have not seen anything addressing my questions, unless I have overlooked it.

Thanks,

You are able to export your contacts and import them to your Gmail account. Below is a very good post that will provide you the steps to export the contacts using Backup Assistant and then import them to your Gmail account.

Please note, you must have Backup Assistant on your device to be able to export the contacts.

In regards to the calendar, you can view other calendars by following the steps listed below:

1. Select the Calendar icon

2. Select Menu

3. Select More

4. Select Calendars

5. Select the calendars that you want to display

Thanks, I will give the contact thing a try.

As for the calendar I do not even see the other calendars listed under that gmail account. I would have though they would sync when my gmail syncs up but it doesn't appear to be working.

I talked to a customer service rep at Verizon (*611) from your handset. He suggested setting up another google account so I did and all of the sudden there is the calendar sync and my original gmail address so I will delete the "dummy" one. Not sure of all the ins and outs of it but the main thing is it fixed the problem.
