Abstract
A method and system for synchronizing and using calendar information from a shared database. Calendar information can be stored in a shared database, and accessed and synchronized with one or more portable computer systems. Calendar information stored on the shared database can be assigned a unique category type. Multiple portable computer systems can then access the shared calendar information which can be displayed on each computer system along with the system's own calendar information. The unique category type is different from the default type of each system's own calendar information and the user is not able to change category types on the portable computer system. Shared calendar information can be viewed and edited and then easily removed using the unique category type.
