manage your calendar and contacts, then all you need to do to sync data

Export data from a desktop organiser on your
computer
If you want the data from your desktop organiser to be
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
transferred to an online account, make sure you set up that account on the
web and on your smartphone first.
• On your computer, create an account on the Google website (go to
gmail.com) or in Exchange (speak to an IT person at your company).
• Set up the same account on your smartphone (see
accounts).
Otherwise, your data must be transferred to your HP webOS Account (see
What is an HP webOS Account?).
On your computer, go to hpwebos.com/migrate-webOS.

NOTE If you are setting up your smartphone for the first time and downloading
a large number of contacts or calendar events from an online account to your
smartphone, you may not see all your data on your smartphone right away.
Some online account providers such as Google set limits on the amount of data
that a user can import in a given time frame. Also, if you have many years'
worth of data or thousands of entries in an online account, you may want to
review the data and reduce the number of entries before setting up the account
on your smartphone. Filling your smartphone memory with a large number of
account entries can affect performance.
