what a day with three events looks like:
To
view an event:
*
Highlight and select the event
The
event details will be displayed. You can then choose to edit
or delete the event. Note the icons at the bottom of the above
screen. Here's what they mean:
 Add an Event
 Go to Week View
 Go to Month View
 Refresh Calendar (When changes are made in the PC,
you need to select this button for the phone calendar to update).
Why
is there a refresh option? When events are updated and synced
from your PC, they do not automatically update when you first
open iDatebook. We do this so that you don't always need to
make a data call when viewing the calendar. A six week cache
of data is stored in the iDatebook calendar in the phone,
for faster viewing/toggling.
Again,
if you know you've synced changes from your PC, when logging
into the iDatebook, get in the habit of selecting the "Refresh
Calendar" button []. This will ensure you are up to date. In
some phones, a reminder will come up if you haven't refreshed
in a while.
Text
Message Alerts
To
receive a text message alert, log into your Web Account, select

Note: your wireless service provider may charge a fee for
receiving text message alerts.
