If you can export the calendar from your blackberry to an SD card in a .CSV format, you can import it to the google calendar.

The Droid comes with a calendar app no need to download it. You sync it on the web at google.

If you want the calendar to be bigger press and hold the calendar widget and you can re-size it.

Do you have a google account? If not create one. If you have to create one, then you will also have to give that info to your Droid.

Do you have your calendar exported to a .CSV file?


After creating your account, go to account settings, it will show you all of the things you can do with your google account.

Choose calendar settings, then choose calendar.
Click import calendar. It will ask where the .CSV file is located. Find the .CSV file on your PC and click it.
You will now have your calendar on google calendar.

Then on your Droid, menu - settings - accoun

It should be automatic.

Go to menu - settings - accounts, tap your google account and see if there is a check box next to calendar.

I don't get it.

Open the calendar app, hit menu - more - calendars.
Make sure you have the calendar set to sync. Make sure it has the same name as the calendar you added on google's website.
