Organizer Features

Time Zones and Events

Here are some important points to keep in mind when assigning a time zone to

an event:

䢇 Palm Desktop software does not recognize time zones. If you sync with

Palm Desktop software, you can add time zones to your events, but the start

and end times do not change in Palm Desktop if you go to a different time

zone.

䢇 If you use Microsoft Outlook, you can use the time zone feature, but you must

install the conduit that came with your Treo 700

P smart device (that is, you

must install the desktop software from the Palm Software Installation CD and

select to sync with Outlook) or a subsequent update on all the computers you

synchronize your device with. Chapura PocketMirror and other earlier

Microsoft Outlook conduits do not support time zones.

䢇 To automatically assign a time zone to your events, open the Options menu,

select Preferences, and check the New events use time zones box. All your new

events will be assigned to your local time zone, and you can change this

setting for individual events. In addition, if you sync with Outlook and you

select the time zone option on the Calendar conduit sync screen, then time

zones will sync for any new events you create in Outlook. Time zone settings

are not added to any events that you created before you set these time zone

settings.

䢇 If you want your events with time zones to stay at the same time in Calendar,

regardless of the time zone you are in, uncheck the Get time zone from mobile

network box on the Date & Time Preferences screen. If the box is checked, the

event time shifts if you travel to a different time zone. See “Setting the Date

and Time” on page 294 for information.
