Using Yahoo Calendar: viewing options and default settings
When we use the Yahoo Calendar for the first time we see some viewing options and default settings, in terms on how the platform is shown and the calendars included. For example, there will be only one calendar at this point with the name of the user on it as default, where all new created events will be saved until another calendar is created.
The default calendar with your name on it will appear by default in the “My calendars” menu placed at the left.

On another part, the default view of the calendar in general is by month and shows the thirty or thirty one days of the month. For many this may be the most convenient view.

However, by using the folder panel on top of the calendar the user is able to change the view and modify it from month view to Today, Day, and Week, Year or List view according to the user´s choice.
![ymail yahoo calendar](http://ymail.info/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot_7-copia-1.jpg)
For instance, if we exchange from Month view to Week view the calendar will be showing the seven days of the week, along with the available hours of the day to include new events, being also a convenient viewing option to keep in mind.

Moving to the right side of the calendar we will be able to see a “To Dos” panel with a default list with our name on it, as the available tool to write different tasks and other things to be done.

Creating, editing and deleting new events in Yahoo Calendar
For a calendar to be useful there must be the option to create new events, and with yahoo mail it results quite easy. There are two way to do so; the first one is clicking on the “New event” button located at the left of the screen, right on top of the mini-calendar.

By clicking on this button a new pop-up window will appear with blanks to be filled with information related to the event, such as name, start and end of the event, location, reminder configuration, type and others. In this case we will be creating a new birthday event. After all the information is entered we just have to click on “Save.”
In this way the event will be saved and showed on the calendar before, during and after it happens.

The other way to create new events is more straightforward and simple; just click on the day you want to set the event, then click on the hour of the day the event will be, enter title, location and click on “Save.” In this example we will be clicking on the day March 16th to add the new event.

Creating To do lists on Yahoo Calendar

Then, if we click on the item the platform will translate the action as if such tasks was already done, removing it from the list.
![ymail calendar ymail calendar](http://ymail.info/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot_27-copia.jpg)
Of course, it is possible for the user to create new customizable lists that can be deleted or modified anytime. To do so, click on the button with the Settings icon on top of the list panel and then click on the option “Create list.”
In this way, a new window will appear asking us to enter the name of the new To do list, in this case we will call it “Christmas Shopping” and then click on “Save” to complete the process. Now the new list is included to add items to be completed in order.
