Time Zones and Events

Here are some important points to keep in mind when assigning a time zone to an event:

⬤Palm Desktop software does not recognize time zones. If you sync with Palm Desktop software, you can add time zones to your events, but the start and end times do not change in Palm Desktop if you go to a different time zone.

⬤If you use Microsoft Outlook, you can use the time zone feature, but you must install the conduit that came with your Centro smart device by Palm (that is, you must install the desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD and select to sync with Outlook) on all the computers you synchronize your device with. Chapura PocketMirror and other earlier Microsoft Outlook conduits do not support time zones.

⬤To automatically assign a time zone to your events, open the Options menu, select Preferences, and check the New events use time zones box. All your new events are assigned to your local time zone, and you can change this setting for individual events. In addition, if you sync with Outlook and you select the time zone option on the Calendar conduit sync screen, then time zones sync for any new events you create in Outlook. Time zone settings are not added to any events that you created before you set these time zone settings.
