The BlackBerry 10 calendar continues the tradition of being powerfully practical and easy to use. Thanks to a handful of acquisitions, BlackBerry's calendar is now more social-powered than ever, plus there are a few new subtle touches that will be refreshing to those that have lived by the BlackBerry calendar for years already. We've rounded up some tips that every new BlackBerry Z10 ...
Normally you do not have those arrows on the Snooze button. With this shortcut, you will! Listen up all you 78 million BlackBerry users out there as I've got a hot BlackBerry tip you'll want to take advantage of immediately... When it comes to calendar popup reminders (as seen in the photo above), you normally have three options: Open, Dismiss and Snooze, with the Snooze time being...
Hello again dear readers. It's time to once again open up the mailbag and clear up any BlackBerry woes you may have. Once again I'm reaching out to the CrackBerry Nation to help another puzzling issue that had my head spinning. This week's question comes from George and he writes: Hello. So I am having a small issue with birthdays and my calendar. So I input birthdays into some...
Back in February, I showed you how to add multiple Gmail calendars to your BlackBerry PlayBook. I've gotten a few requests since then on how to remove them so I thought I'd share the solution. The process itself actually only takes a minute or two and is quite easy. If you do not still have the User Agent Switcher Add-On installed on your computer, you'll need to reinstall it to make...
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] The native Calendar in the new PlayBook OS 2.0 is a great feature. Now we can quickly and easily see our work, personal and social events in one central location. Within the Calendar application, we have a plethora of customizable options.

The Calendar application is just one of the great new features available on the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software but it still needs a few fixes to make it perfect. For anyone that just has basic needs when it comes to using the Calendar, getting up and running is very simple. But for those of us that need a bit more functionality, a few tweaks need to be made. We already looked how...
The release of OS 2.0 for the BlackBerry PlayBook and its integrated calendar is a dream come true for me. It's one of the features I use the most on my BlackBerry Bold 9930 and it was sorely missed on my PlayBook. Now that it's available, a lot of us are trying to figure out how to make it do exactly as we'd like. Over in our CrackBerry forums some helpful users found a way to sync...
[ youtube video link for mobile viewing ] Along with native Messages and Contacts, the BlackBerry PlayBook 2.0 software is sporting a native Calendar application as well. Setting up your accounts is super easy and once you're up and running there's nothing to it. There are various views available like monthly and weekly, and you can color code each calendar for easy viewing. You'll...
This week I'm travelling to Illinois for some corporate training which just happens to be the home of our very own Kerri Neill. As you can imagine I'm always thinking of last minute items to pick up or pack. Only problem is its usually while walking on a busy Manhattan street. Rather than risk serious bodily harm stopping in the middle of foot traffic to jot down a quick...
Universal search is one of the OS 6 features that I absolutely love. Unfortunately, I'm using a Bold 9700 with OS 5 and refuse to give it up or upgrade the OS. With that said, my one pet peeve is that the Calendar doesn't offer the same search option as OS 6. Since I have numerous appointments, reminders, anniversaries, recurring events, and birthdays, having an integrated search...
To begin, I love my BlackBerry and yes I would consider myself a fanboy of sorts. The BlackBerry was my first connected to the web device going back to my beloved 950 and it's AA-battery. Unlike some device fanboys, I'm secure enough to point out when I believe there is a shortcoming in the feature list. We're always reading about people's wish lists for the BlackBerry. Some want...
Having been available as a beta for users for a while now SBSH has made their Calendar Pro app available for all. The SBSH Calendar Pro app is a more robust, feature rich calendar compared to what is included with your BlackBerry out of the box. Advanced features such as colored time slots, built in task manager functions as well as multiple viewing options make calendar pro a great...
Recently I’ve heard of some issues popping up with the new BlackBerry Curve. It seems that some versions of the Curve were shipped with a bug in the OS that causes some synchronization issues with the Calendar, including duplicate Calendar entries being created, and entries created on the device not being synchronized with the desktop email software. The calendar issue is summarized...
