If you’ve already been using Calendar and Reminders, you’ll learn how to use them more effectively, troubleshoot common problems, and delve deeper into their capabilities. If you’ve never taken the opportunity to explore Calendar and Reminders, this book will show you how to make them an important part of your daily routine. For example, did you know that in Calendar you can set an alert for when you need to leave for an event, based on the travel time calculated using the location you entered for the event? Or that Reminders can prompt you to do something not only at a certain time, but also once you’ve reached a specific destination, like the grocery store?
In this book, veteran Mac journalist and editor Scholle McFarland will guide you through getting to know these incredibly helpful apps, including lesser-known (but handy) features. Or, keep a list of to-do items, add to it and view it on all your Apple devices, and share your list with family or friends. Put an event on your schedule, invite others to join, or set yourself an alarm (or more than one). Now, we have powerful tools, like Apple’s Calendar and Reminders, that are much more responsive to our needs. In the days before personal computers and mobile devices, we had to rely on paper calendars and to-do lists to help us organize our time and activities.
