Sony Ericsson, Nokia & Siemens phones

Smartphones running the Symbian operating and some 'non-smart' Symbian phones can synchronise with Calendar 'out of the box' and do not need to have third-party software installed.

Instructions vary between handsets, so it's not easily possible to cover all variants here. The basic instructions here should be at least a pointer in the right direction for most Symbian phones. If you can't find the settings on your Symbian phone, you might like to try asking a question on AskIT - see the box in the top right.

2. Open Remote sync and select New.
