As a Mac user, I don't have much experience with outlook to blackberry. Is there an option to sync all or selected calendars?

Is there anyway to get birthdays synced up with your calendar too? I know the beta version of the app does this, but I'm having some problems with it and would prefer to do it this way. Thanks.

I'll take a look in the morning, but if there is a way to export the birthday's, then it should be feasible.

From Outlook only way I know is over bluetooth through the desktop software. Instead of syncing all from Outlook id sync everything from Google (Google has a app which does 2 way with Outlook also)

I wrote the instructions under the previous layout. I'll see if I can track it down this evening.

Did I do something wrong? The events show up on google calendar and my BBwith the time as GMT instead of my time zone. In other words it is assuming the times from facebook are GMT so the times are hours before they are scheduled in facebook.

Maybe someone else can give a better explanation

Pretty good one. Think of it as SMS txting but you can let the whole world that is using twitter see them if you want. As a more localized use it is SMS txting to everyone who is following you. Essentially if everyone you following, is following you and everyone else you are following you can have one massive SMS txting chat session. Almost like chatting in a chat room. I just wish I could get all my bests friends and not so best friends using it so that we can use it that way. It is such a pain to communicate social activities having to phone some, txt others, email others, wait for replies; then communicate those replies to everyone, wait for replies to that; and then hopefully not repeat the process again except to report the finalized plan.

You don't need to do all the steps to Sync with Google or create a Google calendar for Facebook. Under Options for the Facebook Application on your Blackberry you need to make sure there is a check mark in the box that says BlackBerry Calendar application - it will add them to your calendar. You can color code so you know which ones are from Facebook. If you want you can delete the ones you are not attending.

When you say:

Step 5: Click the export button at the top of the page.

Where is the export button?
