Windows 8/Apps

K... so I am not a techy person. I still don't have a smart phone. My old computer you had to crank start every morning.

So I am trying to get up to speed, first step was purchasing a new lap top. It has Windows 8, which I don't mind.

I was parked in front of a job site today. Pulled out my laptop, tried to poach some internet access, no luck. Made some phone calls, and set up some meetings. I entered the meetings in the Calendar App. Went about my business, then shut my computer down.

When I got home, I was going through a few things and noticed the meetings that I entered were not on the Calendar. Do you need to be online for those meetings to save? or did I not shut it down properly?

Sorry to make a short question long...

"I'm an analog man"- Joe Walsh good song!

did you save them? I don't have windows 8, but perhaps its something like a microsoft word document that you have to save what you type otherwise it wont be there when you start your computer.

The calendar App has a floppy disk icon on the upper right that you must click to save the meeting, if that is not done it is gone.

I must not have done that, cause I tried it again today. Worked fine.
