    I have set up my email account, but my main one won't give me the option to sync. All my other accounts go to the sync options when I tap them, but my Shaw account won't. It only let's me fiddle with server settings. I have tried deleting it and re-installing it many times,but it is determined to set up only as "email " and not "email,calendar,contacts." Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to make it happen?
    Thanks in advance!

    Are you installing this account with ActiveSync (rather than POP or IMAP)? I think that is the only way you will get "email,calendar,contacts," as POP and IMAP are protocols for email. As far as I know, there is no way to access or sync calendars & contacts with POP and IMAP.

    The instructions here, for Windows 7 phones and for iPhones/iPads, use Exchange ActiveSync -- perhaps they could help you with your PlayBook setup.
