Calendar is very slow - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

The built-in calendar application is very slow, e.g. starting it takes some seconds, switching from day view to agenda view, week view is also very slow. What about your experiences with this?!

Calendar tool

I'm looking for a tool -- free --to see the first N appointments.
Anything similar to the calendar view 'Agenda'.
Nowadays I'm using the TodayAgenda plugin. It works fine but I prefer a tool not intergrated in the Today window.
Sorry for my bad English

I've been looking for (probably) the same thing. Datelens is cool, but I couldn't find an agenda view. I want to see all upcoming appointments in list format, not just the one day at a time and not in a grid.
The best idea I could come up with was to sync with Google Calendar and use Google's mobile calendar page. The major drawback is that it requires internet connection whenever I want to see the appointments.
Still looking....

monthly calendar Today Plugin with appointments?

Is there a Today plugin will display the monthly view of a calendar with color coding or other indicators for appointments for each day?
I know rltoday can display a monthly calendar but last I check it doesn't have any way of signifying if there is an appointment for that day.
dunno if I understood your request, but I use SPB Diary
not sure about a plugin that can just display the monthly view... but I do know that tapping the calendar icon in Pocketbreeze will popup a month calendar that shows dots for appointments.
Sorry, that is about as much help as I can be.

PocketBreeze has a 'pinned' calendar and a pop-up calendar. The pinned calendar shows the entire month on the Today Screen, but does not show the appointment timeslots on the calendar.
The pop-up calendar will show the timeslots, but it's only displayed when you select it.
In my screen captures, I have iLauncher at the top and PocketBreeze below.
Most of my appointments are 'free' so they don't display on the pop-up calendar.
Maybe someone in the SBSH PocketBreeze forum will know more about the product. http://forums.sbsh.net/index.php?showforum=7
I am looking for a plugin that displays the monthly calendar with some sort of coding (different color, etc.) that tells me when I have an appointment at a quick glance. But I wanted this on the today screen, without having to press anything to pop up. It doesn't have to show as much detail as that pop up calendar on pocketbreeze, but maybe just to le tme know that I have something going on that day displayed as a different color.
How's your Japanese?
This super-small plug-in does what you want I think. It gives you a calendar on your today screen and adds a plus next to any day you have appointments.
Problem is that it is only in Japanese. However, the options on it are very minimal and if you play with it a little then you can know what all the menus are saying without actually being able to read them.

Double-posted so I'll slide you a screenshot. The screenshot is old, but it works on WM6 - I just tested it.

Not easily. At least, not easily for me.

Synchronizing with >3000 appointments and contacts takes forever

hi,
i have a colleague who also has a touch hd and over 3000 contacts and appointments in his outlook.
the synchronizing takes forever and doesnt even come to the end after several hours. he left the hd over night and the next morning it wasnt finished.
does anybody have that much contacts or appointments?
it think it should be possible to use the hd with these amount of items.
he cant possibly be the only person who has his customers and businesspartners in his outlook(?!).
with me the sync takes quite long too.
when the calendar is synced it updates the appointments "xx/yy" and after that the synchronisation stays and takes a few minutes.
how about you?
Only the first sync takes so long. I also have in excess of 3000 items to synchronize (about 300 contacts, 2800 appointments, tasks, etc). It took about three and an half hours (!), but now syncs in about 30 seconds. So no, I don't think this is unreasonable at all; there should however be a warning for the user to wait this long (as there is hardly any indication that synchronisation is actually progressing). The same number of items only took about 10 or so minutes on a PPC (Loox 560) that I had before HD. It only takes a couple of minutes on a Nokia 6500 dumbphone though. Sigh. Well, we all know that AS actually stands for ActiveStink(tm).
Cheers,
Rok
How to Increase Synchronisation Speeds
Hi Guys
I had the same problem. The way around this is to disable your Touchflo 3d from the today screen.
I was then able to sync with for the first time with outlook over 5,000 calendar appointment and over 1200 contacts in about 30 mins. After that "daily" syncs should only take 30 seconds to a minute.
Hope this helps
Kaid
ah, great tip. i will try that.
do you deactivate the tf3d for the daily syncs too?

Works 100%. Struggled with that for days, solved now. Thanks m8!
works really great!
that is awesome!.
i am so glad you told me.
by the way: is there a way to disable the tf3d calendar?
i think that should be the problem. disabling the calendar should solve it.
Try removing home tab in customisation options. It should help.
not possible

Caalendar Application

Hi there,
I am thinking of buying the Inesoft Calendar application as I like the different views it gives me and the task list integration. Does anyone know any other alternatives?
Also, can someone post screen shots of the new calendar screens from 6.5.3? I've seen the monthly view (same as 6.5) and the annual view - is there anything else?

Look up Calender Touch, it pretty much kicks AS#
Thanks.
One of things I like about the inesoft product, is that it also shows Google calendar entries, WITHOUT zyncing them to my Outlook calendar. Any other options for this?
RussB
I just re-installed ThumbCal that i bought for my kaiser a long while back, it pretty much rocks on the TP2, and you can set it as the default calendar and tasks app, i sync all my calendars entries with Google over push which works fine..great app with a good Agenda view which i like alot.

Edit: i'm just trying out the Inesoft and so far i'm pretty impressed!!
Pocket Informant
Not sure how many options and stuff you need but this is hard to beat.
www.pocketinformant.com/
They offer 30 day free trial, probably take 30 days to play with all of the options it has.

No appointments in agenda view

The last 10 days all of a sudden no appointments show up in the agenda views widget. I use pocket informant 9 and haven't made any changes the last 3 months.
Does anyone know how to get the appointments show up again?
Thanks,
pinobird
it's working again
All of a sudden things work normal. I didn't do anything (no reboot or whatever).
I wonder if it stays this way.
Thread can be closed.
