11 years ago From domschuermann@gmail.com on May 15, 2012 20:50:49 Because I am far from home I have only a Android 4 based smartphone with me, so I need the following information:
Can you please look into Android preferences -> Accounts and sync settings, like shown here: http://support.google.com/ics/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=168486#1080070
Is background data and auto sync enabled? I don't know if it makes a difference but please report me your settings.
Is a Birthday Adapter account present? Normally one should be created when enabling Birthday Adapter.
And in Androids Calendar: Menu -> Calendars. Is Birthday Adapter present and set to visible?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
What is the expected output? What do you see instead? A Calendar containing the birthdays could be created/displayed.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? birthday-adapter: 1.2 (3) Android: 2.3.7 (cyanogenmod 7.2rc1)
Please provide any additional information below. I'm not using any Google or local addressbook. All my address books are caldav based. When I hit "Synchronize now!" I can see (adb -d logcat) that the caldav adapter requests all contacts. These contacts contain birthday and anniversaries.
e.g: BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 FN:John Doe UID:2481dbaa-3d54-4635-9aab-42d131d9d956 EMAIL;TYPE=WORK:john@example.net N:John;Doe;;; BDAY:1980-11-28 PRODID:-//dmfs.org//mimedir.vcard//EN REV:20120412T132238Z END:VCARD
