Q. Can I sync the appointments on a Web-based Google Calendar with my BlackBerry communicator?
A. Google offers a piece of software on its site that should let you use Google Calendar with your BlackBerry. To get rolling, aim your BlackBerry’s browser at m.google.com/sync and look for the Download Google Sync link.
Open the menu and choose Get Link and then select Download on the next page. Once the software downloads, it should install itself on your BlackBerry and a new Google Sync icon should appear on your home screen. Select the icon and, when you see the login screen appear, type in the same Google account name and password that you use to get to your calendar online.
Once you log into your account, the Google Sync software signs you in. You can use the Options item on the menu here to change any synchronization settings between the Google Calendar and the BlackBerry.
When you are ready to sync it, go to the bottom of the Welcome screen and press the Sync Now button.
If you have a jam-packed schedule, the actual synchronization process may take several minutes the first time.
