HP Wi-Fi manual Layered calendars, Use Calendar for the first time

Enter an event directly in Calendar: See Create an event for instructions. You can assign the event to one of your online calendars—if you do, it synchronizes with the online calendar. Or you can create the event in your HP webOS Account, which means it shows up on your device only. HP webOS Account events are included in the daily backup of your HP webOS Account information, so you can restore them if they are accidentally erased.

NOTE With some online accounts, such as Yahoo!, data you enter on your device does not sync to the online account.

Use a third-party sync solution: If you want to use a desktop app to store your calendar events, you may be able to use a third-party solution (sold separately) to sync your calendar events directly with your computer (see Sync your desktop organizer and your device or go to hpwebos.com/ sync-solutions) to see if third-party solutions are available for your device. If there are no solutions available for your device, check with the developers of existing sync software for other webOS devices to see if they are developing a solution for your device).

Transfer calendar events from an existing HP webOS Account: When setting up your device, you can choose to sign in to an existing HP webOS Account that you may be using already with a webOS smartphone. If you decide to sign in to an existing account, you can choose to do a one-time transfer of the data, including calendar events, stored in the existing HP webOS Account to your device.

Layered calendars

Suppose you use the calendar in both Microsoft Exchange and in Google. If you set up both of those accounts to sync with your device, your device’s Calendar app shows the events from both in a single view— a layered calendar with events that are color-coded to identify which provider they come from. Individual events are stored separately with your different providers; the events are just assembled in one view on your device 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.
