Re: DateBk6 font formatting won't stick

Welcome to the forum!

I wish that I knew the answers to any of your questions.  In the meantime, though, I would like to ask you about StyleTap.

So, do you enter calendar information directly into your iPhone's StyleTap program that has DateBk?  My understanding is that a person in your position is not able to HotSync information between your computer and your iPhone's StyleTap/DateBk, is that correct?

If you ever lose your iPhone, what (if any) back-up or syncing system are you relying on for that sort of worst-case scenario?

When you enter information into StyleTap/DateBk, does the "normal" iPhone keyboard pup-up, just like any other aspect of the iPhone?


Thanks very much,

HyperScheduler

But couldn't live without DateBk (or HandyShopper, for that matter)! To get Datebk back, I had to jailbreak the iPhone to install the Palm emulator by StyleTap. And that is currently the setup that I am using -- a jailbroken iPhone 3G running iOS 3.1.3, StyleTap v.0.9.013 (the latest), and Datebk6.1b, s2.

The appointment will just appear bold black. Even just tapping the appointment won't make the red reappear; but if I hit Details, just before the detail screen appears, the appointment does indeed turn red.

I used to be able (with a previous version of Datebook6) to create an appointment via a template that would be bold while in "normal" status, and as soon as I marked it "done", it would lose the bold and appear in plain font. This behavior I like very much, but I seem unable to get it back. Any idea what I have to tweak? Or would this missing behavior somehow be related to my other problem?
