Select 'Setting' in Home screen, then Select 'SaiSuke'

An appointment that was created in SaiSuke would not be synchronized to Google Calendar.
Select 'Calendar Update Setting from Network Menu
Change Sync option to either '2-ways' or 'iPhone to Google Only'.
Also, please make sure that your appointment has one of your Google Calendars that you want to sync with. If your appointment has 'SaiSuke Calendar', the appointment will not be synchronized with Google Calendar.
Can I set a reminder?
No, you cannot. iPhone OS does not provide an application to setup a reminder. However, we can use notification mechanism in Google Calendar. If you setup SMS notification in Google Calendar, you can setup a reminder in an appointment. Then you will receive SMS from Google Server at the time. Please keep in your mind that the SMS message is not guarantied to delivered at the time.
Can I sync with Microsoft Outlook?
Yes, you can. You can install Google Calendar Sync tool that is provided by Google to sync with Outlook. Once the appointments in Outlook are uploaded to Google Calendar, you can access to the appointments in SaiSuke.
Can I sync with iCal?
Yes, you can. You can setup CalDAV protocol with iCal to synchronize between iCal and Google Calendar. Once the appointments in iCal are uploaded to Google Calendar, you can access to the appointments in SaiSuke.
✻As Apple does not disclose the API information to manipulate the Calendar Application in iPhone, SaiSuke does not support direct synchronization.
I can't change the color of appointment
An appointment that in a Google Calendar is displayed with the color of the Google Calendar. You cannot change it in SaiSuke.
You can change the color of appointment when you select SaiSuke native calendar, 'SaiSuke Calendar'.
Can I change the synchronize period?
At Version1.00, the period is fixed with the current visible one month.
Version1.01 and later has an option to specify the period.
Also modified the sync algorithm to update only the appointments that were updated after the last sync operation. This change contributes to reduce data traffic and time to sync.
Once you changed the sync period, the first sync process will check all of the appointments in the period, so that the process may take up to few minutes to complete. Please make sure the radio strength and battery are enough to complete the process before to start the first sync.
Is there a feature to jump to a date?
Version 1.01 and later, Yes, Touch the title area to open the dialog. Select the desired date to jump and push Move to button.
Do you distribute holiday data for SaiSuke?
There are Public Holiday Calendars for various countries in Google Calendar. After you add those Holiday Calendars to your calendar, they can be synchronized in SaiSuke as well.

Sync with Google Calendar takes more than hours or never finish.
Some times, Google calendar does not response to the request from out side of Google Server so that the sync will be blocked by one of the calendars.
If you setup multiple Google Calendars to sync, please try to enable only one calendar to sync and disable all the other calendars for test purpose.
If you identify the calendar that blocking the sync, please leave it sync disabled for a while and try it again later.

I get an error message, "Error Code:403" during sync.
The meaning of the error is failing to authenticate the account access.
- Please double check the login ID and password. The login ID must be the entire Gmail address, such as "XXXXX@gmail.com".

I get a message, "Unexpected Termination" when SaiSuke starts.
This message appears when SaiSuke detects force termination of SaiSuke.
If you terminate SaiSuke with "press & hold" Home Button, which is "force termination of an application", this is a cause of the message. Please use simple one time press of Home Button to terminate SaiSuke instead.
How can I migrate the appointment data in Free version to Full version?
An application software has no mechanism to share data between another application software on iPhone.
Therefore we use Backup & Restore features in SaiSuke. Please perform Backup in Free version SaiSuke first. Then perform Restore in Full version. This procedure will transfer the data in Free version to Full version SaiSuke.
To use Backup & Restore functions, we need Google Calendar sync setup.
