I don't if the reason being is I allowed updates to PC Studio 3 before attempting. Odd thing was when I first connected it acted like it was going to allow me to do so. Then it switched and said only Media Music could be synced and I'm actually not able to do that either. Not sure what #23 is saying as it sounds like JL is referring to Google Calendar and Outlook and no association to the Samsung Rogue.

Google calendar has an interface that works OK via the browser. You can then sync your goggle calendar to Outlook with Google's calendar sync software. They give the sync software out for free.

Plenty of help for connecting to PC. I follow the instructions, but the Mac never recognizes the phone. And when I select USB Mass Storage on the phone, nothing happens. At my wit's end.

I am getting really worried! I just got the Rouge a week ago and so far I love the phone. It is my first phone that has more functionality. I bought it for 2 reasons: one I needed a decent texting phone as my 2 teenage daughters are better at responding to text messages when away from home (this phone has bigger keys than the Intensity and the other multi-media phone with a keyboard) and two I wanted a phone that I could sync with my Outlook calendar. The sales guy at Verizon told me I could with this phone. The most important of the two being the calendar! I am so tired of multiple calendars for work and home, but did not need everything the Blackberry or Palm units have to offer (keys to small on Palm anyway). I have read down through the comments but do not see if there is a definitive solution yet as to the sync with Outlook calendar. I do not need to sync my music or anything else at this point as I have a nice iPod that I still use. Can someone help? Yikes! I am getting really worried!
