Default Setting For Calendar?

[bjleiderman]

Is there a way to Calendar Events appear with your own preferred default options? For example, I like most of mine to remind me 2 days, and again 2 hours in advance of the event.

There is no way to do this in the Calendar app itself, however; if you sync with another calendar (say Google) you can set up to two alarms on the website, and they will sync non-default time/dates.

Only two though. If you do three then the event won't sync. Very annoying, and a problem I butted my head against several times before I figured out what whas happening.

BTW, If you do not currenlty sync your calendar, I recommend setting up a Google account to do so. it's a good safety net. No single device/compuer should ever hold all your critical information.

If you set up the Google account on your iPad as an Exchangae account, you'll also be able to sync (and safeguard) your Contacts. Setting up Google Sync with your iOS device : Mail, Calendar, & Contacts - Google Mobile Help
