Google Calendar Issue

How do I get all of my Facebook friend's birthdays off of my calendar? I did a sync and I have all these birthdays on my phone calendar now!  I checked the Facebook settings and it's marked unsync.

Help! Thank you!

Open contacts then click the menu button (bottum left) click on accounts, Then click on facebook and uncheck sync calendar. Click the sync now button at the bottom of this screen. Go back into calendar and birthdays should be gone. If they are still there go into the calendar app and clear the cache.

Yes, if you remove your FB account from the device, it will remove anything that was put there by the app.  Of course, you could always uncheck sync contacts to remove them from your contact list.

You don't even need to uninstall the app to get them to go away.  Open the app, press menu>settings>sync contacts, and select the remove facebook data option.
