Use Apple iCal to Track Your Salesforce.com Tasks and Events

After a two-month beta period, Spanning Salesforce for iCal was officially launched today. Spanning Salesforce users can now subscribe to their tasks and events from salesforce.com and view them in Apple iCal and other iCalendar-enabled applications. And using iSync and iTunes, users can synchronize those tasks and events with their mobile phones and iPods.

Here's how to get started in 3 easy steps:

1. Sign up for a Free 30-Day Trial of Spanning Salesforce
   Remember, a salesforce.com Enterprise or Unlimited Edition license is required.


2. Click here to subscribe to your salesforce.com Events
   When prompted, use your salesforce.com username and password.


3. Click here to subscribe to your salesforce.com Tasks
   When prompted, use your salesforce.com username and password.

If you have any questions or run into any problems, email customer.service@spanningpartners.com.

I trying out the application that you offer that allows access to my salesforce.com information. i was a little disappointed to find out that it only views the information and I can't modify the information offline. is that correct?

Keith,

That's right--Spanning Salesforce gives you read access to your Salesforce.com information. Later this year we'll be introducing Spanning Sync for Salesforce.com, which will provide both read and write access.
