Cindy, When you are in the day view of the calendar where each hour is listed, there should be a button in the upper left of the screen labeled with the current month. If you double tap it will take you back to the month view where all the days of the current month are displayed. Likewise in the month view, there is a button in the upper left that will take to a current year view. Double tap it and you will find yourself on a screen that lists the months in the current year. Another thing I have found helpful, if you double tap the search button you will get a list of your appointments. You can do a three finger swipe up and down to scroll through the list. I find it an easier way to see my appointments than trying to swipe through the day view. As for editing the details of an event, what I do is enter the event then after the details have gone away, I go back in and edit the details adding any other details I didn't the first time. I hope this helps. Kimber On 10/27/13, Cindy Handel <cindy425@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > OK, I'm told that I can still use the native calendar app on the iPhone 5 as > > I did before.
