Note: The Linux desktop versions of KOrganizer/Pi and KOrganizer/KDE-desktop are two different programs! You cannot use KOrganizer/Pi together with, or embedded in, the KDE-desktop environment. The same is valid for KAdddressbook/Pi.

NOTE AND HINT for performing migration on many workstations:
Just burn the content of the installation dir on a CD.

All my appointments do show 6 hours ahead. A: The default timezone in KO/Pi is CET. CET is (GMT +01:00) or (UTC +01:00), i.e GMT=UTC . To adjust the time of your appointments, you have to change the timezone and reload your calendar without closing the application and without saving the data. "Without saving the data" is very important. Note that KO/Pi has build in auto saving. If auto saving is performed after changing the timezone and before reloading your calendar no times will be changed. Example: Selected timezone in KO/Pi is (+01:00 Oslo). You have an appointment shown at 8:00. But it should be at 14:00. Your timezone is -05:00 US/Eastern. You have to do: Select timezone +07:00 Asia/Bangok in config dialog. Close dialog with ok button.

If you have a windows laptop and want to get data into an installed KO/Pi on windows, you should choose ics and with timezone. Simply try it out, what data the device does understand. ************************************************************************* Q: Can I receive contacts via infrared (IR) directly with KO/Pi? A: Yes, KO/Pi can receice data via IR when it is running! You have to do: - disable FastLoad for the original calendar+todo application and close it - start KO/Pi - enable IR beam/receive Note: When FastLoad is enabled for KO/Pi, KO/Pi is always running and you do not need to "start" KO/Pi. ************************************************************************* Q: I want to send a friend all the public holidays in my calendar. Can I do that? A: Yes. Choose search dialog. -Serach there after the events you want to send. +Search there for the events you want to send. Make sure, you get all wanted events and maybe some more. Maybe sort the items and select all items you want to send. With a 'right' mouse click (hold pen down for a while and then relase) you get a popup menu. Choose there 'Save selected to file'. Now all selected entries are saved. Send the file to your friend, he can import them in his calendar now. ************************************************************************* Q: I want to get another alarm sound than the default. What I have to change? A: The default alarm sound is a wav file: It is (QPEDIR)/pics/korganizer/koalarm.wav. (Usually QPEDIR=/home/QtPalmtop). (On the desktop, the path is: (installdir)/kdepim/korganizer/koalarm.wav) Just replace this file by another one und do a 'simulate alarm' to ckeck, if it works. ('Simulate alarm' not available on the desktop, because it is in the alarm applet) Wav files can have different sampling data. (e.g. 16/8bit, stereo/mono, 22kHz/11kHz/...) Note: It seems to be that there are problems with particular combination of these settings. If one file is not replayed properly, just try another file/ another sampling data. ************************************************************************* Q: Is there a solution to get an alarm on Windows? A: Yes, but KO/Pi has to be running to notify you about an alarm. Choose menu: Action - Configure. -There the last TAB alarm. +There the TAB alarm. Check "Use internal alarm notification" to get the alarm on Windows and Linux desktop. You can configure the behaviour of the alarm there. ************************************************************************* Q: I have Zaurus 5600 and I want to get wav alarm instead of the buzzer. Is that possible? A: Yes. The default alarm kind is determined from the screen resolution. For all 320x240 displays the buzzer alarm is the default. To change this, set in the alarm applet popup menu Play beeps- Replay-*.wav-file Note: If a 5500 user will choose this, he will get no alarm sound from the speaker. He will get only the wav sound from the headphone connector. ************************************************************************* Q: In the alarm applet settings "auto suspend" seems not to work. Am I doing something wrong? A: Probably!
