Accounts: For all calendar accounts, tap an account to change login
settings or remove the account. You should change login settings only
if you have changed this information for the calendar account online—
the information you enter here must match the information in the
online account.
Calendar View Options: Set the color for events created in that
account and show or hide that account in All Calendars view.
Default Calendar: If you create an event in All Calendars view, the
event is assigned to your default calendar.
Add An Account: Tap the account type and enter your username and
password for the online calendar account. Before you can set up an
account on your phone, you must already have an account online with
the provider.
Manually synchronize Calendar with your online accounts
If you want to get calendar events from an online account on your phone
immediately—or upload events from your phone to the online account (if
the account allows it)—you can do a manual sync. This synchronizes
Calendar with all the accounts you have set up on your phone, and it
synchronizes your contacts and email with those accounts also.
