I'm having a problem with the Calendar module which can't be very common, since it makes the program virtually unusable. I am able to set up appointments, etc., with no problem. When I look at a future date on which I have something scheduled, all appears normal; however, when that date arrives, my appointments have disappeared. What is more, the Calendar often pulls a meeting from earlier in the week (which itself 'disappeared' on its appointed day) and overlays the correct 'today' data. I've checked my system date setting — it's right. If I could spot some other pattern or regularity to what's happening, I'd let you know, but (as you might imagine) this problem doesn't leave me with much incentive to keep using the Calendar. I like the Address Book and Dialer — might like the Calendar too if I could resolve this bug.

Benjamin, I have heard of a problem with events in Calendar. I have researched it and discovered that there is a problem only if you leave Calendar running overnight without closing it. It seems that when the system date changes overnight DTS is not able to switch to the next day without either…1. Selecting File/Open (to refresh the screen) and reopen that Calendar. Or 2. Close the Calendar at the end of the day. Please let me know if you are not leaving the Calendar open overnight. Marisa, Okna Tech Support
