Hey everyone....
Does anyone know if we can get the calendar app. on the Fuze to show upcoming appointments like a week in advance? Mine will not show the appointments in the calendar tab until the day it happens. I HAVE SEARCHED The FORUMS ALREADY and could no find the answer, so please if you know it I would appreciate it....or If you can please point me to the right thread I would appreciate it as well as I cant find the answer on my own.
Thanks for the help.
many of us have tried to make Touchflo show more appts, however, its not possible at this time. your best option, if you need this, is to disable touchflo, and download some other homescreen app (ie, spb diary, etc)
And while on the subject of the Fuze calendar, I noticed today that appointments without a start/end time (all day appointments) do NOT show up in the monthly view as little icons on the display.
This is REALLY annoying, as I use glancing at the monthly display to determine if I'm available on a given day for work (I'm a freelancer).
Is there a solution, aside from editing all my all day appointments to give them a start and end time?
Is there another, better calendar program that someone can recommend?

I've been using Pocket Informant for a few years and I can't operate without it...

Thanks for the reply. That looks like a LOT more features than I need, but it's an intersting app.
Can you confirm that an all-day appointment with no set start or end time made on Outlook on the dsktop shows on the Fuze display with pocketinformant?
After further investigation (I'm new to Outlook, having used Palm Desktop for a decade or so), it seems that in Outlook if you enter an all day event, you must also mark the event/day as "BUSY" instead of the default "FREE", and then a "something is happening this day" icon shows up in the Fuze calendar monthly view.

assign it to a (left) softkey
this is something that is still really bothering me, and i know that there are alternatives, but i personally love tf3d, so i was thinking, is it possible to have a calendar tab that shows your next 5-6 appointments? i know that there is a calendar tab floating around, but it just shows you a month calendar. if there was a way to set that tab to show your upcoming appts, that would solve my, and many others as well, problem. thanks

I second that. It would be nice to have a customizable today (TAB) that we could put the today screen or if not possible just appointments.. Hopefully some handy XDA'er is working on it....

This is what's happening. I have a training schedule, it's quite intense so I have set several re-occurring appointments in my WM calendar app. Now, I also have some work events which are in my calendar as well. Right now what happens is an alarm goes off and I think it's something from my training schedule, but it's actually an appointment, thus end up missing my appointment. I know there is a simple solution to this: just look at the PDA to see what event it is, but ideally I would like a different alarm for my training and my work appointments so that when it goes off I don't need to look at my PDA but I can just go do my thing.
The question is, pocket calendar lets you set up one alarm for ALL events so what app will do this?

I guess it cannot be done then?
Today I wanted to create a new appointment and once again I was upset because I could not set a category to the appointment. Does anyone know a way to implement categories into the built-in calendar or does someone know another calendar-application which supports categories?
Is the problem that the calendar supports vcs instead of ics ?
I use SBSH Papyrus and it does have categories for appointments.
this one seems to be really nice. Some freeware competitors? I really like it (trial) but i really don't like to pay at the moment because i am not sure i will really need it that much it is necessary to buy software.
Anyone able to think of a way to have it so that messages would be marked as read when previewed in TF3D (similar to text messages)? Sometimes I've already read an email, or it's short, or it's not something I care about and would rather not have to open the message to mark it as read.
Thanks.
use flex mail it is much better than the standard outlook and you can mark mail's sms's as read or unread...you'll never go back to outlook again
I've actually heard good things about FlexMail before. My only concern is that I really do like TF3D, can FlexMail replace Outlook for the mail tab and still work with the fancy (lol) previews and such?
you can try Samapa programe to change the default tmail.exe to flexmail i never tried it..but i tried and changed successfuly the all contacts soft key in touch flo to open icontact and the calender button on the home tab to thumbcal ..so try it and let me know what happens
I'm sorry... Samapa? Google'd to no avail (well, as far as phone-relevant things go).

I think I am going to chicken out and not try it. Other than sounding a bit complicated (maybe just because I am a noob on my first WInMo device), but I also don't see anything where it would be able to maintain the preview functionality (and allow that preview to mark the message as read, which is my actual "issue" or whatever).
Thanks though!
I'd also love to be able to mark emails as read from the TouchFlo preview pane, without opening up the mail app (whether that's Outlook or something else). I do like the idea of the preview, but it would make a significant difference if I could use it to mark unimportant and short emails as read in one step.
Anyone?
Does any one know of a way or an application that will allow you to have different colours for Appointments.
reason why i ask is that i have alot of appointments on my calendar that are different to each other. Some are work based others are personal aswell as some that are of another nature. When you see the appointments, specifically in the month view they are all marked with a silver triangle in the top right corner. This really does not help to find seperate appointments easily.
If anyone knows of a way to get a good colour code system be put in place i would be ever grateful.
the manila integrated calendar is so weak, it is really only usable for people with few appointments a day, and people who don't need custom catagories, and people who don't need tasks...
I just disabled the calendar tab and put PocketInformant to my left softkey...
I am a Sprint tech support trying to find an answer for my customer. She wants to know if there is a way to put in a recurring appointment in the calender that does not fit the predetermined choices. For instance, she has a bill due every 25 days. The built in calendar on the Touch Pro 2 is not allowing her to change that. She states that on her old Palm Treo, running "the same" windows mobile OS, that she could setup recurring appointments in that manner.
I have searched all the documentation I can find and have not been able to locate an answer for her. Since she paid so much for the phone, she does not want to pay for another calendar application. So if you know of some options, I'd love to hear them.
I look forward to seeing what you all come up with.
Thanks in advance for your help.
set up a daily recurrence, in there you can set it to occur every 25 days
25 isnt an option in the pull down menu, but you can just type in 25 with the keyboard
