How do I get events into Calendar?
You have a few options for getting events to show up in Calendar:
Connect to an online calendar:
that works with the Palm Synergy™ feature (for example, Google or
®
Microsoft Exchange), you can set up Calendar on your phone to synchronise
and display events that you store in the online calendar. Set up
synchronisation the first time you open Calendar (see
first time), or anytime after that (see
the connection to the online calendar, events you enter online show up
automatically in Calendar, and events you enter on your phone sync to the
online account.

DID YOU KNOW If you synchronise with your Google calendar, you can add
Google Weather to the calendar on your desktop and have it appear in Calendar
on your phone. On your desktop, log in to your Google Calendar account and open
Calendar Settings. Click the
temperature unit you want in
time your phone synchronises with your Google account, Google Weather appears
in Calendar on your phone.
The Synergy feature makes it easy to synchronise other data from an online
account. By setting up synchronisation in one app, synchronisation of the
other apps is automatically set up for you. For example, if you set up your
Gmail account in Email before you set up Calendar, when you first open
Calendar, you find that your Google calendar events are already
downloaded. When you first open Contacts, you find that your Google
contacts are already in your phone's Contacts app.

Enter an event directly in Calendar:
You can assign the event to one of your online calendars—if you do, it
synchronises with the online calendar. Or you can create the event in your
Palm profile account, which means it shows up on your phone only. Palm
profile events are included in the daily backup of your Palm profile
information, so you can restore them if they are accidentally erased.
Use a third-party sync solution:
wherever you are, without having a direct connection to your computer.
When you sync, any changes you've made to Contacts are automatically
added to your computer or to your phone.
Transfer calendar events using the Data Transfer Assistant:
transfer calendar events from desktop software, you select which account to
assign those events to. Look for those events in the account you select (see
How do I get data off my computer?).
Layered calendars
Suppose you use the calendar in both Microsoft Exchange and Google. If
you set up both of those accounts to sync with your phone, your phone's
Calendar app shows the events from both in a single view—a layered
calendar with events that are colour-coded to identify which account they
come from. Individual events are stored separately with your different
providers; the events are just assembled in one view on your phone for your
convenience.
If you change an event, the change is made in the appropriate calendar.
You can also look at the events of just one calendar at a time.
