Syncing using the Yahoo! Mail header in the Setup Wizard or CalDAV

Yahoo! Calendar gives you two options for syncing your mobile device with Yahoo! Calendar: CalDAV and Yahoo! Mail header in the Setup Wizard.

The differences between the Yahoo! Mail header from the Setup Wizard and CalDAV:

• Yahoo! Mail header from the Setup Wizard:
  - Allows you to sync both your Yahoo! Mail and Yahoo! Calendar information to your mobile device at one time.
  - It's more stable: We recommend using the Yahoo! Mail header in the Setup Wizard for syncing to Yahoo! Calendar, as the Yahoo! Mail header is more stable.
• CalDAV:
  - Only allows you to sync your Yahoo! Calendar information to your mobile device.
• Syncing protocols: Both are syncing protocols that many calendars use to make their data interchangeable with other calendars, including the Yahoo! Calendar.

For instructions specific to your device: Refer to your mobile carrier's product documentation, or the documentation belonging to your device's manufacturer.

To set up a sync with the more stable method using the Yahoo! Mail header in the Setup Wizard:

1. Go to the "Settings" page on your mobile device.
2. Select the Mail, Contacts, Calendars option.
3. Select the Add Account option.
4. Select the Yahoo! option.
5. Enter all requested information including your name, email address, and password.
6. Tap OK or follow any additional steps for your mobile device.

Note: After you have completed entering the settings for Yahoo! Mail header in the Setup Wizard, you'll have the option to enable or disable your Mail, Contacts, and Calendar.

To set up a sync with the less stable method using CalDAV:

1. Go to the "Settings" page on your mobile device.
2. Select the Mail, Contacts, Calendars option.
3. Select the Add Account option.
4. Select the Other option.
5. Select the CalDAV option.
