Help Where's the calendar

[totallockout]

My Samsung S3 is now synched to Outlook using Microsoft Exchange Server. But I can't find the calendar. E-mail and contacts are working.

The only calendar functions I have found on the hand set are S Planner App and Calendar widget, neither of these hold my Outlook calendar information.

S PLanner is the icon for the calandar on the SIII.
Press Left button/Settings/CalendarsCheck My calendar. Then I use Kies to sync Outlook calendar. You are also able to select Contacts if so required. The options for that are displayed on the Kies Page.

Thanks wunay. As a complete ignoramus with this device, can you please explain what is meant by the left button?

There is a touch button either side of the home button, the left one of these is the menu

That is physical buttons. Off screen bottom.

Just found it, thanks (slow learner). What about Kies. Do I need this? What is it?

 

[wunay]

Download and install Samsung Kies to the PC. Then connect your phone to the PC and you can then update the phone via Kies and sync with Microsoft Outlook, be it Contacts or Calendar.

Kies is Samsung's program which lets you update your phones firmware and sync to your pc
Kies Samsung

Thanks to all for the info regarding Kies. If I'm using MS Exchange Server, do I still need Kies?

Is there anyway to change the layout color of the default calendar widget?
