Simple Calendar

[G-Byte]

Hiya folks.

I have had my Nexus S for about 3 weeks now and I am loving the experience I am having setting it up "just right" I've gone through almost all of my data plan looking and installing different apps, games and widgits.

I am trying to enter an appointment for next month and it seems that I am doing something not quite right. I am using the GO team launcher and it's attending widgets. I came from a BB Curve and I liked that all that I had to do was open up the calendar, click a time...type what the meeting was for and save. It seems to be easy peasy. It is not so easy for me now using GO Calendar/Contacts. The Curve would use my contacts list's info such as birthdays and automatically enter that into the calendar. Right now that is not happening. When I try to enter an appointment all I see a red line across the time but when I click on it it says no events.

I'd rather not do any syncing cause it servers no purpose for me. Maybe I am doing something wrong...probably so help is needed.

I use Go Launcher too, but never did use the Go Calendar Widget (too cartoonish for me) so uninstalled it. For me, the moment I enter my contact with a birthday to my phone (Samsung Galaxy SL), it automatically shows up in "My Calendar". So you may have to check the settings of Go Calendar to make sure that it shows up on the calendar by choosing what calendar you want it to show, as it may be using its own calendar and not getting data from the phone's calendar. I personally am using sync so I use my Google Calendar on my phone with My Calendar disabled. As for the widget, I am using Android Agenda, set to show my Google Calendar (you can set it to any calendar available on phone) and Astrid tasks.

Thanks for the reply. It looks like I am doing something right after all. My reminders are being entered and kept...even my birthdays are showing up right...even a year in the past. I don't know what I did or am doing right I just hope I can remember what it is that I am doing.

By default that should be the normal behavior of the phone anyway
