Handspring Visor manual Application problems

Application problems

Problem

I tapped the Today button, but it does not show the correct date.

I know I entered some records, but they do not appear in the application.

I am having problems listing memos the way I want to see them.

I created an event in Date Book, but it doesn’t appear in the Week View.

Solution

Your handheld is not set to the current date. Make sure the Set Date box in the General Preferences screen displays the current date. See “General preferences” in Chapter 9 for more information.

■Check the Categories pick list (upper- right corner of the screen). Choose All to display all of the records for the application.

■Check Security and make sure that the Private Records setting is set to Show private records.

■In To Do List, tap Show and check whether Show Only Due Items is selected.

■If you cannot manually arrange the order of the memos in the List screen, check the Memo Preferences setting. Make sure that Sort by is set to Manual.

■If you choose to view your memos alphabetically on Palm Desktop software and then perform a HotSync operation, the memos on your handheld still appear in the order defined in the Memo Preferences setting. In other words, the sort settings that you use with Palm Desktop software are not transferred to your handheld.

In the Week View, you cannot select overlapping events that have the same start time. If you have two or more events with the same start time, choose the Day View for the particular day to see the overlapping events.
