Calendar

"Google access has expired." Click "Reconnect" under Settings › Calendars.
"Without calendar access Aevo cannot show any events." The calendar box was not ticked during consent. Connect again and tick it.
"Your Google Workspace admin has not approved Aevo yet." / "Your IT administrator has to approve Aevo." Your organization has to allow Aevo. Contact IT.
"This connection was started in another Aevo account." Start connecting again from the account you are signed in to now.

Events are missing from the timeline Check whether the calendar is visible in the current workspace (Settings › Workspaces) and, for Google, whether it is active under "Choose calendars".
An event does not count against free time It was accepted tentatively and "Count tentative events" is off. Or "Count for availability" is off for that calendar.

Inbox

Microsoft 365 shows "Reconnect" The connection dates from before the inbox existed and covers the calendar only. Reconnect once.
"This server address is not allowed." Check the server address for typos.

Board and tasks

Problem Cause and fix
A new task is not visible A filter hides it. Reset type, project filter and search.
A task gets no outline It has no effort, is paused, has "Not earlier" in the future, or the free time is not enough.
No task has an outline Daily capacity is part of Pro. Or it is off ("Today" button), working hours are over, or today is not a work day.
"Work on" jumps to another date It cannot be later than the deadline. Aevo pulls it forward to the deadline.
"Cannot postpone further" The deadline has been reached. Move the deadline first.
A task is at the top although it has no date itself It has stars, was postponed, or a subtask is under pressure. The card "Why this is here" names the reason.
Reminder emails do not arrive They are part of Pro, the task needs a deadline, and "Reminders before deadlines" has to be on under Settings › General.
A file cannot be attached Files are part of Pro. The file may be 10 MB at most, and its type has to be allowed.

Sync

Message Meaning
"No connection. Changes will be saved once you are back online." Keep working. Aevo catches up.
"… changes pending" That many changes are waiting for the connection.
"A change could not be saved." The server rejected a change. Reload Aevo and check your last change.

Microsoft Teams

Message or problem Cause and fix
"Aevo account not linked" Connect Microsoft 365 in Aevo with the account you use in Teams (Connect a calendar). Then run the action again.
"Unable to reach app" or the app is missing Your organization may block third-party apps. Ask your Teams admin.
The Microsoft 365 sign-in asks for admin approval Your organization does not allow users to consent to apps. An admin can approve Aevo once for everyone.
