Application-specific tasks
This section explains how-to-do instructions specific for each task of your basic
applications.
Using Date Book
Date Book lets you conveniently manage your schedules and appointments or any
other activities associated with a time and date.
Scheduling events
An entry in the Date Book is called an event. An event can refer to any activity that
you associate with a particular day.
You can schedule the following types of events in Date Book:
• Timed events, which have both times and dates
• Untimed events, for example, birthdays or anniversaries
• Repeating events, such as a weekly meeting held on the same day at the
same time
• Continuous events, such as a vacation or three-day conference
• All day events, which reflect the default hours of a day as set by the user
When you schedule an event, its description appears on the time line, and its duration
is set to 1 hour by default. You can easily change the start time and duration for any
event.
Scheduling timed events
You can schedule timed events for the current date or for future dates.
To schedule a timed event for the current date:
1 Tap the time line next to the time that corresponds to the start of the event.

length.
