Please disable the buildin activesync client, so that it doesnt interfere.
And what does the log say?

You add her on unix level, in your case, I believe.
I use different devices using the same account and it works flawlessly.

In Horde you have the way to create a shared calender, and/or share  
your own calender with others.
I believe, this could be what you want?
