I have a contact X on the diamond - I put up the birthday for this contact, on my diamond. But it doesn't get updated onto the Calendar.

Ok, I THINK it will work when I sync it with the OUTLOOK. (well it should, logically, but then it's microsoft, so I guess anything is possible, anyways, giving them the benefit of the doubt, let's assume it will work)

My question is, is there a way to make this work without having to Sync to Outlook?

I mean, it seems pointless to have that detail in the contacts option, if it's not going to add it to the calendar.

Any help will be appreciated.

I would like to know if it's possible too.
I amusing best birthday, but it doesn't import contacts to calendar, so I have to launch it every time I want to check if there is any birthday...

I just tried it with the sync to outlook thing, seems to be working. For now anyways.

Of course, alternatively you could set up all the bdays in the outlook contacts.. and then Outlook will add those up as Calendar events (which it does) .. and then you sync the diamond again.

Which, would work..

But, it would be a hell lot easier if the WM6 would take care of this on it's own, without having to sync.

I mean, there is a field for putting up Bday and Anniversary.. it SHOULD take it to the Calendar..

Am I missing something?

You are right. My previous phone i used SBSH pocketbreeze for that function. But the drawback with the diamond is, that because of the touch3d we are not able to place more nothing anymore on the today screen.

Hello,

I used a very nice software on my old ETEN M600 called "Birthday" (made by David Andrs) that was a Today pluging. It was displaying days remaning, name and age of contacts for a customizable number of days before and after his birthday. I'm very sad to loose this functionnality on my Diamond :(

If you have any idea to retrieve this functionnality for this beautiful and powerful diamond, I would be very happy.
