Happy New Year. We are going to post a series of helpful tips in PhotoOne over the next four weeks. The tips are going to be geared towards PhotoOne features that we think will enhance your studio workflow when it comes to using studio management software.
Did you know that you can sync the PhotoOne Calendar to your Outlook and from there to Google, Blackberry, and iPhone? PhotoOne seamlessly syncs to Outlook, and from there to your selected device.
In PhotoOne, on the left hand side under the Calendar tab click Outlook Interface. From here you can choose 1) Sync PhotoOne to Outlook, which puts appointments from PhotoOne into Outlook, or 2) Sync Outlook to PhotoOne, which allows you to import appointments from Outlook into PhotoOne.
If you click Sync PhotoOne to Outlook it will bring up an Update Outlook screen. Tag any appointment books that you wish to export and all of its appointments, that are in the future, will go into Outlook when the Update Outlook button is clicked. You can tag or untag an appointment book by clicking the Tag and Untag buttons, you can click Tag All to export all of your appointment books, and you can clear all the calendars that will be exported by clicking Untag All.
If you click Sync Outlook to PhotoOne you will see a list of the appointments that can be imported. You can click the appointment and review it below. Appointments that have already been imported or have previously occurred will not be imported. If you wish to import appointments you have already imported you can check mark the Bypass Filter and then click the Refresh button to update the list.
From Outlook you can import/export the appointments into your selected device or calendar. For example, to sync your iPhone with your PhotoOne calendar you would sync to Outlook and then sync outlook to MobileMe.

will this sync both ways?
Hi Bruce — yes. You can sync from PhotoOne to Outlook and from Outlook to PhotoOne. You can further sync with other handhelds through Outlook.
