     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The disclosed embodiments relate generally to portable electronic devices, and more particularly, to portable devices for viewing and managing electronic calendars. 
     BACKGROUND 
     As portable electronic devices become more compact, and the number of functions performed by a given device increases, it has become a significant challenge to design a user interface that allows users to easily interact with a multifunction device. This challenge is particularly significant for handheld portable devices, which have much smaller screens than desktop or laptop computers. This situation is unfortunate because the user interface is the gateway through which users receive not only content but also responses to user actions or behaviors, including user attempts to access a device&#39;s features, tools, and functions. Some portable communication devices (e.g., mobile telephones, sometimes called mobile phones, cell phones, cellular telephones, and the like) have resorted to adding more pushbuttons, increasing the density of push buttons, overloading the functions of pushbuttons, or using complex menu systems to allow a user to access, store and manipulate data. These conventional user interfaces often result in complicated key sequences and menu hierarchies that must be memorized by the user. 
     Many conventional user interfaces, such as those that include physical pushbuttons, are also inflexible. This is unfortunate because it may prevent a user interface from being configured and/or adapted by either an application running on the portable device or by users. When coupled with the time consuming requirement to memorize multiple key sequences and menu hierarchies, and the difficulty in activating a desired pushbutton, such inflexibility is frustrating to most users. 
     Portable electronic devices often include a calendar application to keep track of meetings or appointments. Generally, the calendars on these devices may be viewed according to a monthly format, which displays a respective month, a daily format, which displays a respective day, or a weekly format, which displays, a respective week. In some of these calendars, a listing of agenda, or calendar entry items, may be viewed in list format. These formats are typically viewed separately, and switching between them is often cumbersome and inconvenient. 
     Some portable devices are also able to receive and respond to calendar invitations and/or display simultaneously entries from multiple calendars (e.g., a work calendar and a personal calendar). But the user interfaces for these functions are cryptic and non-intuitive for many users. 
     Accordingly, there is a need for portable multifunction devices with more transparent and intuitive user interfaces for displaying and managing calendars and calendar entries on a touch screen display that are easy to use, configure, and/or adapt. 
     SUMMARY 
     The above deficiencies and other problems associated with user interfaces for portable devices are reduced or eliminated by the disclosed portable multifunction device.

     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
     Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known methods, procedures, components, circuits, and networks have not been described in detail so as not to unnecessarily obscure aspects of embodiments. 
     It will also be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, a first gesture could be termed a second gesture, and, similarly, a second gesture could be termed a first gesture, without departing from the scope of the present invention. 
     The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used in the description of the invention and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will also be understood that the term “and/or” as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises” and/or “comprising,” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. 
     Embodiments of a portable multifunction device, user interfaces for such devices, and associated processes for using such devices are described. In some embodiments, the device is a portable communications device such as a mobile telephone that also contains other functions, such as PDA and/or music player functions. 
     The user interface may include a physical click wheel in addition to a touch screen or a virtual click wheel displayed on the touch screen. A click wheel is a user-interface device that may provide navigation commands based on an angular displacement of the wheel or a point of contact with the wheel by a user of the device. A click wheel may also be used to provide a user command corresponding to selection of one or more items, for example, when the user of the device presses down on at least a portion of the wheel or the center of the wheel. Alternatively, breaking contact with a click wheel image on a touch screen surface may indicate a user command corresponding to selection. For simplicity, in the discussion that follows, a portable multifunction device that includes a touch screen is used as an exemplary embodiment. It should be understood, however, that some of the user interfaces and associated processes may be applied to other devices, such as personal computers and laptop computers, that may include one or more other physical user-interface devices, such as a physical click wheel, a physical keyboard, a mouse and/or a joystick. 
     In addition to a calendar application, the device may support a variety of other applications, such as one or more of the following: a telephone application, a video conferencing application, an e-mail application, an instant messaging application, a blogging application, a digital camera application, a digital video camera application, a web browsing application, a digital music player application, and/or a digital video player application. 
     The various applications that may be executed on the device may use at least one common physical user-interface device, such as the touch screen. One or more functions of the touch screen as well as corresponding information displayed on the device may be adjusted and/or varied from one application to the next and/or within a respective application. In this way, a common physical architecture (such as the touch screen) of the device may support the variety of applications with user interfaces that are intuitive and transparent. 
     The user interfaces may include one or more soft keyboard embodiments. The soft keyboard embodiments may include standard (QWERTY) and/or non-standard configurations of symbols on the displayed icons of the keyboard, such as those described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/459,606, “Keyboards For Portable Electronic Devices,” filed Jul. 24, 2006, and Ser. No. 11/459,615, “Touch Screen Keyboards For Portable Electronic Devices,” filed Jul. 24, 2006, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. The keyboard embodiments may include a reduced number of icons (or soft keys) relative to the number of keys in existing physical keyboards, such as that for a typewriter. This may make it easier for users to select one or more icons in the keyboard, and thus, one or more corresponding symbols. The keyboard embodiments may be adaptive. For example, displayed icons may be modified in accordance with user actions, such as selecting one or more icons and/or one or more corresponding symbols. One or more applications on the portable device may utilize common and/or different keyboard embodiments. Thus, the keyboard embodiment used may be tailored to at least some of the applications. In some embodiments, one or more keyboard embodiments may be tailored to a respective user. For example, one or more keyboard embodiments may be tailored to a respective user. Some of the keyboard embodiments may be adjusted to reduce a probability of a user error when selecting one or more icons, and thus one or more symbols, when using the soft keyboard embodiments.

     A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of the touch screen  112  may be analogous to the multi-touch sensitive tablets described in the following U.S. Pat. No. 6,323,846 (Westerman et al.), U.S. Pat. No. 6,570,557 (Westerman et al.), and/or U.S. Pat. No. 6,677,932 (Westerman), and/or U.S. Patent Publication 2002/0015024A1, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. However, a touch screen  112  displays visual output from the portable device  100 , whereas touch sensitive tablets do not provide visual output. 
     A touch-sensitive display in some embodiments of the touch screen  112  may be as described in the following applications: (1) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/381,313, “Multipoint Touch Surface Controller,” filed May 2, 2006; (2) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/840,862, “Multipoint Touchscreen,” filed May 6, 2004; (3) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/903,964, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed Jul. 30, 2004; (4) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/048,264, “Gestures For Touch Sensitive Input Devices,” filed Jan. 31, 2005; (5) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/038,590, “Mode-Based Graphical application Ser. No. 11/228,758, “Virtual Input Device Placement On A Touch Screen User Interface,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; (7) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/228,700, “Operation Of A Computer With A Touch Screen Interface,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; (8) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/228,737, “Activating Virtual Keys Of A Touch-Screen Virtual Keyboard,” filed Sep. 16, 2005; and (9) U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/367,749, “Multi-Functional Hand-Held Device,” filed Mar. 3, 2006. All of these applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. 
     The touch screen  112  may have a resolution in excess of 100 dpi. In an exemplary embodiment, the touch screen has a resolution of approximately 160 dpi. The user may make contact with the touch screen  112  using any suitable object or appendage, such as a stylus, a finger, and so forth. In some embodiments, the user interface is designed to work primarily with finger-based contacts and gestures, which are much less precise than stylus-based input due to the larger area of contact of a finger on the touch screen. In some embodiments, the device translates the rough finger-based input into a precise pointer/cursor position or command for performing the actions desired by the user. 
     In some embodiments, in addition to the touch screen, the device  100  may include a touchpad (not shown) for activating or deactivating particular functions. In some embodiments, the touchpad is a touch-sensitive area of the device that, unlike the touch screen, does not display visual output. The touchpad may be a touch-sensitive surface that is separate from the touch screen  112  or an extension of the touch-sensitive surface formed by the touch screen. 
     In some embodiments, the device  100  may include a physical or virtual click wheel as an input control device  116 . A user may navigate among and interact with one or more graphical objects (henceforth referred to as icons) displayed in the touch screen  112  by rotating the click wheel or by moving a point of contact with the click wheel (e.g., where the amount of movement of the point of contact is measured by its angular displacement with respect to a center point of the click wheel). The click wheel may also be used to select one or more of the displayed icons. For example, the user may press down on at least a portion of the click wheel or an associated button. User commands and navigation commands provided by the user via the click wheel may be processed by an input controller virtual click wheel, the click wheel and click wheel controller may be part of the touch screen  112  and the display controller  156 , respectively. For a virtual click wheel, the click wheel may be either an opaque or semitransparent object that appears and disappears on the touch screen display in response to user interaction with the device. In some embodiments, a virtual click wheel is displayed on the touch screen of a portable multifunction device and operated by user contact with the touch screen. 
     The device  100  also includes a power system  162  for powering the various components. The power system  162  may include a power management system, one or more power sources (e.g., battery, alternating current (AC)), a recharging system, a power failure detection circuit, a power converter or inverter, a power status indicator (e.g., a light-emitting diode (LED)) and any other components associated with the generation, management and distribution of power in portable devices. 
     The device  100  may also include one or more optical sensors  164 .  FIGS. 1A and 1B  show an optical sensor coupled to an optical sensor controller  158  in I/O subsystem  106 . The optical sensor  164  may include charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) phototransistors. The optical sensor  164  receives light from the environment, projected through one or more lens, and converts the light to data representing an image. In conjunction with an imaging module  143  (also called a camera module), the optical sensor  164  may capture still images or video. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the back of the device  100 , opposite the touch screen display  112  on the front of the device, so that the touch screen display may be used as a viewfinder for either still and/or video image acquisition. In some embodiments, an optical sensor is located on the front of the device so that the user&#39;s image may be obtained for videoconferencing while the user views the other video conference participants on the touch screen display. In some embodiments, the position of the optical sensor  164  can be changed by the user (e.g., by rotating the lens and the sensor in the device housing) so that a single optical sensor  164  may be used along with the touch screen display for both video conferencing and still and/or video image acquisition. 
     The device  100  may also include one or more proximity sensors  166 .  FIGS. 1A and 1B  show a proximity sensor  166  coupled to the peripherals interface  118 . Alternately, the proximity sensor  166  may be coupled to an input controller  160  in the I/O subsystem  106 . The proximity sensor  166  may perform as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/241,839, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device,” filed Sep. 30, 3005; Ser. No. 11/240,788, “Proximity Detector In Handheld Device,” filed Sep. 30, 3005; Ser. No. 11/620,702, “Using Ambient Light Sensor To Augment Proximity Sensor Output”; Ser. No. 11/586,862, “Automated Response To And Sensing Of User Activity In Portable Devices,” filed Oct. 24, 2006; and Ser. No. 11/638,251, “Methods And Systems For Automatic Configuration Of Peripherals,” which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In some embodiments, the proximity sensor turns off and disables the touch screen  112  when the multifunction device is placed near the user&#39;s ear (e.g., when the user is making a phone call). In some embodiments, the proximity sensor keeps the screen off when the device is in the user&#39;s pocket, purse, or other dark area to prevent unnecessary battery drainage when the device is a locked state. 
     The device  100  may also include one or more accelerometers  168 .  FIGS. 1A and 1B  show an accelerometer  168  coupled to the peripherals interface  118 .

Furthermore, memory  102  may store additional modules and data structures not described above. 
     In some embodiments, the device  100  is a device where operation of a predefined set of functions on the device is performed exclusively through a touch screen  112  and/or a touchpad. By using a touch screen and/or a touchpad as the primary input/control device for operation of the device  100 , the number of physical input/control devices (such as push buttons, dials, and the like) on the device  100  may be reduced. 
     The predefined set of functions that may be performed exclusively through a touch screen and/or a touchpad include navigation between user interfaces. In some embodiments, the touchpad, when touched by the user, navigates the device  100  to a main, home, or root menu from any user interface that may be displayed on the device  100 . In such embodiments, the touchpad may be referred to as a “menu button.” In some other embodiments, the menu button may be a physical push button or other physical input/control device instead of a touchpad. 
       FIG. 2  illustrates a portable multifunction device  100  having a touch screen  112  in accordance with some embodiments. The touch screen may display one or more graphics within user interface (UI)  200 . In this embodiment, as well as others described below, a user may select one or more of the graphics by making contact or touching the graphics, for example, with one or more fingers  202  (not drawn to scale in the figure). In some embodiments, selection of one or more graphics occurs when the user breaks contact with the one or more graphics. In some embodiments, the contact may include a gesture, such as one or more taps, one or more swipes (from left to right, right to left, upward and/or downward) and/or a rolling of a finger (from right to left, left to right, upward and/or downward) that has made contact with the device  100 . In some embodiments, inadvertent contact with a graphic may not select the graphic. For example, a swipe gesture that sweeps over an application icon may not select the corresponding application when the gesture corresponding to selection is a tap. 
     The device  100  may also include one or more physical buttons, such as “home” or menu button  204 . As described previously, the menu button  204  may be used to navigate to any application  136  in a set of applications that may be executed on the device  100 . Alternatively, in some embodiments, the menu button is implemented as a soft key in a GUI in touch screen  112 . 
     In one embodiment, the device  100  includes a touch screen  112 , a menu button  204 , a push button  206  for powering the device on/off and locking the device, volume adjustment button(s)  208 , a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card slot  210 , a head set jack  212 , and a docking/charging external port  124 . The push button  206  may be used to turn the power on/off on the device by depressing the button and holding the button in the depressed state for a predefined time interval; to lock the device by depressing the button and releasing the button before the predefined time interval has elapsed; and/or to unlock the device or initiate an unlock process. In an alternative embodiment, the device  100  also may accept verbal input for activation or deactivation of some functions through the microphone  113 . 
     Attention is now directed towards embodiments of user interfaces (“UI”) and associated processes that may be implemented on a portable multifunction device  100 . 
       FIG. 3  illustrates an exemplary user interface for unlocking a portable electronic device in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, user interface  300  includes the following elements, or a subset or superset thereof:

     In some embodiments, the device detects contact with the touch-sensitive display (e.g., a user&#39;s finger making contact on or near the unlock image  302 ) while the device is in a user-interface lock state. The device moves the unlock image  302  in accordance with the contact. The device transitions to a user-interface unlock state if the detected contact corresponds to a predefined gesture, such as moving the unlock image across channel  306 . Conversely, the device maintains the user-interface lock state if the detected contact does not correspond to the predefined gesture. As noted above, processes that use gestures on the touch screen to unlock the device are described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/322,549, “Unlocking A Device By Performing Gestures On An Unlock Image,” filed Dec. 23, 2005, and Ser. No. 11/322,550, “Indication Of Progress Towards Satisfaction Of A User Input Condition,” filed Dec. 23, 2005, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In addition, as described below with respect to  FIG. 7G , an unlock icon (e.g., image  302 , arrow  304 , and “slide to unlock” channel  306 ) may be changed to a view-invitation icon (e.g., image  302 , arrow  304 , and “slide to view” channel  307 ) when the device receives a calendar invitation while the device is locked.

           402 ,  404 ,  406 ,  141 ,  148 ,  144 ,  143 ,  149 - 3 ,  149 - 2 ,  149 - 1 ,  149 - 4 ,  410 ,  414 ,  138 ,  140 , and  147 , as described above;   Map  154 ;   Notes  153 ;   Settings  412 , which provides access to settings for the device  100  and its various applications  136 , as described further below;   Video and music player module  152 , also referred to as iPod (trademark of Apple Computer, Inc.) module  152 ; and   Online video module  155 , also referred to as YouTube (trademark of Google, Inc.) module  155 .       

     In some embodiments, UI  400 A or  400 B displays all of the available applications  136  on one screen so that there is no need to scroll through a list of applications (e.g., via a scroll bar). In some embodiments, as the number of applications increase, the icons corresponding to the applications may decrease in size so that all applications may be displayed on a single screen without scrolling. In some embodiments, having all applications on one screen and a menu button enables a user to access any desired application with at most two inputs, such as activating the menu button  204  and then activating the desired application (e.g., by a tap or other finger gesture on the icon corresponding to the application). 
     In some embodiments, UI  400 A or  400 B provides integrated access to both widget-based applications and non-widget-based applications. In some embodiments, all of the widgets, whether user-created or not, are displayed in UI  400 A or  400 B. In other embodiments, activating the icon for user-created widget  149 - 6  may lead to another UI that contains the user-created widgets or icons corresponding to the user-created widgets. 
     In some embodiments, a user may rearrange the icons in UI  400 A or  400 B, e.g., using processes described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/459,602, “Portable Electronic Device With Interface Reconfiguration Mode,” filed Jul. 24, 2006, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. For example, a user may move application icons in and out of tray  408  using finger gestures. 
     In some embodiments, UI  400 A or  400 B includes a gauge (not shown) that displays an updated account usage metric for an account associated with usage of the device (e.g., a cellular phone account), as described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/322,552, “Account Information Display For Portable Communication Device,” filed Dec. 23, 2005, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

     The highlighted portion  4912  of the display mode icon  4904  indicates which view of the calendar is being displayed. As shown in  FIG. 5A , a list view of the calendar is being displayed, and therefore, the highlighted portion  4912  corresponds to the list view. In some embodiments, a respective calendar may be displayed in a list, day, or multiweek view. The multiweek view may include a monthly view. The appropriate section of the display mode icon  4904  is highlighted according to which view of the calendar is being displayed. The term “highlight” is used here to mean displaying in a visually distinctive manner, such as changing one or more of the following: background color, background fill pattern, bolding, underlining, font color, font, etc. 
     A user may perform a finger contact within the display mode icon  4904  on, or within the area immediately surrounding the desired calendar view to display. 
     UI  4900 A also includes a today icon  4902 , which when activated, for example by a finger contact, initiates display of today&#39;s events in the then active calendar view (e.g., in the list, day, or month view). When a user selects the today icon  4902 , the corresponding calendar for the current day is displayed. 
     UI  4900 A also includes an add calendar entry icon  4906 . The add calendar entry icon  4906  allows a user to add calendar entries to a desired day. As will be described later,  FIGS. 5I-5M  illustrate exemplary user interfaces for adding a calendar entry.

           402 ,  404 ,  406 ,  4902 ,  4904 , and  4906  as described above;   month forward icon  4930  that when activated (e.g. by a finger tap of the icon) displays the month-view of the calendar for the following month;   month backward icon  4932  that when activated (e.g. by a finger tap of the icon) displays the month-view of the calendar for the preceding month;   monthly calendar  4934  that includes calendar day icon  4936 ;   list of events  4938 ; and   vertical bar  4940 , which indicates the portion of the list  4938  being displayed.       

     UI  4900 C a calendar in month-view mode is displayed while simultaneously displaying a list of events  4938  for a selected day. In some embodiments, a respective selected day is indicated by highlighting (e.g., day icon  4936  is highlighted in  FIG. 5C ). 
     At a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display, a multiweek calendar is displayed on the touch screen display. A contact on an individual day in the multiweek calendar is detected, and in response to detecting the contact on the individual day, at least a portion of a list of events on the contacted individual day is displayed while continuing to display the multiweek calendar ( FIG. 5C ). 
     In some embodiments, the contact is a finger contact on or near the touch screen display. In some other embodiments, the contact is a stylus contact on or near the touch screen display. 
     In some embodiments, the multiweek calendar is a monthly calendar, as illustrated in  FIGS. 5C-5H . 
     As will be described in  FIGS. 5D-5G , a user may change the list of events  4938  being displayed by making a finger contact on the touch screen  112  within the grid of the monthly calendar  4934 . As shown in  FIG. 5D , a user starts with the user&#39;s finger touching the highlighted calendar day icon, as indicated by finger contact area  4950 . As seen in  FIG. 5D , the list of events  4938  corresponds to the highlighted calendar day icon  4936 . The user continues with finger contact  4950  and moves, or scrubs, the user&#39;s finger along the touch screen  112  within the grid of the monthly calendar  4934  in the direction of the arrow, as demonstrated in  FIG. 5D . As the user&#39;s finger contact  4950  stops on a particular day, the list of events  4938  being displayed changes accordingly, as shown in  FIG. 5E . 
     In some embodiments, the list of events  4938  is scrollable. In some embodiments, the list of events is configured to scroll in response to a finger gesture on the list of events. In some embodiments, the finger gesture is a swipe gesture. 
     A gesture on the list of events is detected, and in response to detecting the gesture on the list, list of events scrolls while continuing to display the multiweek calendar. In some embodiments, the gesture is a gesture with a finger. 
     In some embodiments, contacts with a plurality of days in the multiweek calendar is sequentially detected, and in response to detecting contacts with the plurality of days, lists of events are sequentially displayed for at least some of the plurality of days while continuing to display the multiweek calendar. In some embodiments, the sequentially detected contacts correspond to movement of a single, unbroken finger contact with the touch screen display, also known as scrubbing, as described above. 
     In some embodiments, in response to detecting contacts with the plurality of days, the plurality of days in the multiweek calendar is sequentially highlighted. 
     In some embodiments, when a user&#39;s finger contact continues to scrub along the touch screen  112  (see  FIG. 5F ) to a calendar day icon  4936  with no corresponding calendar entries, and the finger contact movement stops on such day, no list of events is shown, as illustrated in  FIG. 5G . 
     In some embodiments, indicia for each day in the multiweek calendar that has at least one event is displayed. In some embodiments, the calendar day icon  4936  may indicate whether or not the corresponding day contains calendar entries. In some embodiments, calendar days containing corresponding calendar entries are indicated with an underscore below the date in the calendar day icon  4936 , as shown in  FIGS. 5C-5H . 
       FIG. 5H  illustrates UI  4900 D, which displays a calendar in a month-view mode according to some embodiments. UI  4900 D includes many of the same features as US  4900 C, and also includes month scroll bar  4960 . The monthly calendar being displayed corresponds to the highlighted month in the month scroll bar. When a user performs a vertical finger swipe on the month scroll bar  4960 , this allows the highlighted portion  4962  of the month scroll bar  4960  to vertically scroll through the months in the month scroll bar  4960 . Accordingly, the corresponding monthly calendar is also displayed depending on which month in the month scroll bar is highlighted. 
       FIGS. 5I-5M  illustrate exemplary user interfaces for adding calendar entries. In some embodiments, when a user selects the add calendar icon  4906 , as shown in  FIGS. 5A-5H , the UI  4900 E is displayed ( FIG. 51 ). When a user makes a contact, for example on contact point  4970 , and the contact point requires time entry, the UI  4900 F ( FIG. 5J ) is displayed. UI  4900 F includes wheels of time  4974 . Vertical finger swipes (as represented by vertical doubled headed arrows in  FIG. 5J ) may be performed along each vertical column (e.g., a date, hour, minute, or AM/PM column) thereby causing the entries to rotate accordingly. Once the desired time entry is reached, enter icon  4976  may be selected and the appropriate time entry is displayed in the appropriate field in UI  49001  ( FIG. 5M ). In some embodiments, once the desired time entry is reached, the appropriate time entry is displayed in the appropriate field in UI  4900 I ( FIG. 5M ) without needing to select an enter icon. 
     In some embodiments, if a user desires to enter an all day event, UI  4900 G is displayed ( FIG. 5K ). Finger swipes are performed within the wheel and the date rotates accordingly. 
     In some embodiments, if repeat icon  4972  in  FIG. 5I  is selected, UI  4900 H is displayed ( FIG. 5L ). A user may have the entry entered for the same time every week by selected at contact point  4980 . Alternately, the user may have the entry entered for the same time at another interval (e.g., every day, every two weeks, every month, every year, or a custom repeat interval) as indicated by a different user selection within the repeat event UI  4900 H. When the event icon  4982  ( FIG. 5L ) is selected, the appropriate repeat information is displayed in UI  4900 I ( FIG. 5M ). 
       FIG. 6A  illustrates is a flow diagram of a process  600  for displaying and managing calendar entries in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, the process  600  is performed by a portable electronic device with a touch screen display. The device displays a multiweek calendar on the touch screen display ( 602 ), e.g., UI  4900 C of  FIG. 5C . If a user touches a desired day on the multiweek display, the device detects the finger contact on that individual day in the multiweek calendar ( 604 ). As a response to the finger contact on the individual day, the device displays at least a portion of a list of events  4938  on the contacted individual day while continuing to display the multiweek calendar ( 606 ). 
     In some embodiments, if a user sequentially contacts the touch screen display on a plurality of days, the device sequentially detects the contact with the plurality of days in the multiweek calendar ( 608 ). In response to detecting the contacts, the device sequentially displays lists of events for at least some of the plurality of days while continuing to display the multiweek calendar ( 610 ), e.g.,  FIGS. 5D-5G .

       FIGS. 7A-7S  illustrate exemplary user interfaces for accessing a calendar application on a portable multifunction device  100  in accordance with some embodiments. An overview of these user interfaces is provided below. 
       FIG. 7A  shows a device held in a portrait orientation, displaying a multiweek month view (e.g., for October, 2007). The figure shows detecting a contact  7001  on an individual day  7010  (e.g., Oct. 29, 2007) and displaying at least a portion of a list of events on the contacted individual day while continuing to display the multiweek calendar. The list of events on the contacted individual day  7010  (e.g., Oct. 29, 2007) includes an invitation to the event (the agenda review). In response to detecting a contact  7001  (e.g. a finger gesture or a stylus) on a given day on the calendar, the device displays events listed on the corresponding day, including invitations to events. The list of events on any given day is scrollable, in response to detecting a gesture on the list of events. The gesture may be a finger gesture, such as a swipe gesture  7003 . In some embodiments, a contact  7002  is detected on an invitation inbox icon  7040 , which initiates display of an invitation inbox (e.g., as shown in  FIG. 7C ). 
       FIG. 7B  shows a device held in a portrait orientation (with a substantially vertical orientation of a long axis of the touch screen) displaying a list view of daily events for a multiplicity of days. The list is vertically scrollable to permit a user to see events on earlier or later days. A set of icons are provided to initiate display of “Today” events, and to initiate display of events in a list view, day view or month view, in response to detecting a user gesture on the corresponding icon. An icon  7040  is provided for accessing an invitation inbox and for displaying of a number of unread calendar invitations. In some embodiments, a contact gesture  7004  is detected on the invitation inbox icon  7040 , which initiates display of an invitation inbox (e.g., as shown on  FIG. 7C ). 
       FIG. 7C  shows a device held in a portrait orientation, displaying an exemplary list (inbox) of calendar invitations received by the device. In this list, there are two exemplary calendar invitations, first a design review invitation  7062 - 1 , and second a patent meeting invitation  7062 - 2 . In the present example, both invitations are marked as unread, as indicated by the dot  7070  to the left side of each calendar invitation. In response to detecting a user gesture on the “Done” button  7008  in the title bar, the device exits from the calendar invitation inbox. In  FIG. 7C , in response to detecting a user selection gesture  7007  on the design review invitation  7062 - 1 , the device displays details of the invitation, as shown in  FIG. 7D .

These details include the title of the meeting, location (Diplomacy room), date, time, sender of the invitation (Christie), attendees, and notes regarding the meeting. The calendar invitation also includes a “Show in calendar” icon  7082  which if activated by the user (e.g., by finger gesture  7009 ) initiates display of the invitation in the user&#39;s calendar (e.g., as shown in  FIG. 7E ). The calendar invitation also includes icons for the user to accept ( 7091 ) the meeting, to indicate that the user may attend ( 7093 ), and to decline ( 7095 ) the meeting. In some embodiments, the accept icon  7091  is green, the maybe icon  7093  is orange, and the decline  7095  icon is red. 
       FIG. 7E  shows an exemplary day view (e.g., for Oct. 29, 2007) with an exemplary calendar invitation shown as a tentative calendar event  7092 - 1  (e.g., the design review meeting in Diplomacy room from 1 pm to 3 pm). This exemplary calendar invitation corresponds to the design review invitation discussed in  FIGS. 7C-7D . The day view of  FIG. 7E  is vertically scrollable  7099  to permit a user to see events earlier and later in the day. In  FIG. 7E , the tentative calendar event  7092 - 1  for the design review meeting is in conflict with a scheduled event, i.e., the interview meeting  7094 - 1  from 2 pm to 4 pm. In response to detecting a gesture  7011  on the invitation inbox icon  7040 , the device  100  initiates display of the invitation inbox (e.g., UI  7000 F,  FIG. 7F ). 
       FIG. 7F  shows an exemplary list of calendar invitations received by the device. In this list, as described above, there are two calendar invitations  7062 , first a design review invitation, and second a patent meeting invitation. In  FIG. 7F , the design review invitation is marked as read (there is no dot  7070 - 1  for this invitation) and the word ‘Accepted’ is displayed, which indicates that the user has accepted this invitation. The patent meeting calendar invitation is marked as unread, as indicated by the dot  7070 - 2 . The number of outstanding invitations has decreased from two in  FIG. 7C  to one in  FIG. 7F , as the design review meeting has been read and accepted ( FIG. 7D ).

     The user interfaces in  FIGS. 7A-7S  are used to illustrate the processes described below with respect to Figure(s)  8 A- 8 F. 
       FIG. 8A  is flow diagram illustrating a method  800  of operating a calendar application in accordance with some embodiments. The method  800  is performed on a portable electronic device with a touch screen display (e.g., portable multifunction device  100 ). The method  800  provides a simple and intuitive way for a user to switch between a first calendar time period and a second longer time period. This is a convenient way to change the time period viewed without having to access menus or engage in other combinations of actions. 
     The portable electronic device executes ( 801 ) a calendar application. When the device is held in a portrait orientation, the device displays ( 802 ) a calendar in a first view, showing events for a first time period in the first view (e.g., UI  7000 P,  FIG. 7P ). The device detects ( 804 ) a change in orientation of the device to a landscape orientation, and in response, displays the calendar in a second view, showing events for a second time period that is longer than and includes the first time period (e.g., UI  7000 Q,  FIG. 7Q ). 
     In some embodiments, when the device is held in a portrait orientation, the device displays ( 806 ) a calendar in a day view, showing events for a single day in the day view (e.g., UI  7000 P,  FIG. 7P ). The device detects ( 808 ) a change in orientation of the device to a landscape orientation, and in response, displays the calendar in a multiday view, showing events for a multiplicity of days, the multiplicity of days including the single day (e.g., UI  7000 Q,  FIG. 7Q ) 
     In some embodiments, when the device is held in a portrait orientation, the device displays ( 810 ) a calendar in a week view, showing events for a single week in the week view. The device detects ( 812 ) a change in orientation of the device to a landscape orientation, and in response, displays the calendar in a multiweek view, showing events for a multiplicity of weeks, the multiplicity of weeks including the single week. In some embodiments, the multiweek view is a month view ( 814 ). 
       FIG. 8B  is flow diagram illustrating a method  820  of operating a calendar application in accordance with some embodiments. The method  820  is performed at a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display (e.g., portable multifunction device  100 ). The touch screen includes a long axis, a short axis, a landscape view and a portrait view. The method  820  provides a simple and intuitive way for a user to switch between a first time period and a second longer time period. This is a convenient way to change the time period viewed without having to access menus or engage in other combinations of actions. 
     The portable multifunction device executes ( 822 ) a calendar application. The device detects ( 824 ) the portable multifunction device in a first orientation that comprises a vertical or substantially vertical orientation of the long axis. In response to detecting the portable multifunction device in the first orientation that comprises the vertical or substantially vertical orientation of the long axis, the device displays ( 826 ) a calendar for a first time period in the portrait view (e.g., UI  7000 P,  FIG. 7P ). The device detects ( 828 ) the portable multifunction device in a second orientation that comprises a vertical or substantially vertical orientation of the short axis. In response to detecting the portable multifunction device in the second orientation that comprises the vertical or substantially vertical orientation of the short axis, the device displays ( 830 ) a calendar for a second time period in the landscape view. The second time period is longer than and includes the first time period (e.g., UI  7000 Q,  FIG. 7Q ). 
     In some embodiments, the calendar for the first time period shows events for the first time period and the calendar for the second time period shows events for the second time period ( 832 ). In some embodiments, the first time period is a day (e.g., UI  7000 P,  FIG. 7P ) and the second time period is a plurality of days (e.g., 3-7 days, with 7 days shown in UI  7000 Q,  FIG. 7Q ) ( 834 ). In some embodiments, the first time period is a day (e.g., UI  7000 P,  FIG. 7P ) and the second time period is a week (e.g., UI  7000 Q,  FIG. 7Q ) ( 836 ). In some embodiments, the first time period is a week and the second time period is a plurality of weeks (e.g., 3-5 weeks) ( 838 ). In some embodiments, the first time period is a week and the second time period is a month ( 840 ). In some embodiments, the first time period is a month (e.g., UI  7000 R,  FIG. 7R ) and the second time period is a plurality of months (e.g., 3 months, as shown in UI  7000 S,  FIG. 7S ) ( 842 ). 
       FIG. 8C  is flow diagram illustrating a method  850  of operating a calendar application in accordance with some embodiments. The method  850  is performed at a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display (e.g., portable multifunction device  100 ). The method  850  provides a simple and intuitive way for a user to view events for individual days in a multiweek calendar while simultaneously viewing the multiweek calendar. 
     The device displays ( 852 ) a multiweek calendar on the touch screen display (e.g., UI  7000 J,  FIG. 7J ). In some embodiments, the multiweek calendar is a monthly calendar ( 854 ). 
     The device detects ( 856 ) a contact (e.g.,  7017 ) on an individual day in the multiweek calendar. In some embodiments, the contact is a finger contact ( 858 ). In some embodiments, the contact is a stylus contact ( 860 ). 
     In response to detecting the contact on the individual day, the device displays ( 862 ) at least a portion of a list of events (e.g.,  4938 ) on the contacted individual day while continuing to display the multiweek calendar (e.g.,  4934 ). The list of events on the contacted individual day includes an invitation to an event (e.g., tentative calendar event  7092 - 2 , “Design Review (Invitation),”  FIG. 7J ). 
     In some embodiments, the list of events is scrollable ( 864 ). In some embodiments, the list of events is configured to scroll in response to a finger gesture on the list of events ( 866 ). In some embodiments the finger gesture is a swipe gesture ( 868 ). 
     In some embodiments, the device detects ( 870 ) a gesture  4938  on the list of events. In response to detecting the gesture on the list (e.g.,  7029 ), the device scrolls ( 874 ) the list of events while continuing to display the multiweek calendar. In some embodiments, the gesture is a swipe gesture with a finger ( 872 ). 
       FIG. 8D  is flow diagram illustrating a method  880  of displaying and selecting calendar options in accordance with some embodiments. The method  880  is performed at a computing device with a touch screen display (e.g., portable multifunction device  100 ). The method  880  provides a simple and intuitive way for a user to select calendar options. 
     A computing device with a touch screen display displays ( 882 ) a flat version (e.g., UI  7000 J,  FIG. 7J ) of a calendar application interface on the touch screen display. In response to detecting a user gesture (e.g.,  7018 ,  FIG. 7J ) on a view options icon (e.g.,  7180 ) while the flat version of the calendar application interface is displayed, the device displays ( 884 ) a curled version (e.g., UI  7000 M,  FIG. 7M ) of the calendar application interface. The curled version of the calendar application interface includes an image of a bent, folded, or otherwise curled page (e.g.,  7350 ) that obscures a first portion of the flat version of the calendar application interface, and a roll-up region (e.g.,  7353 ) in a display region formerly occupied by a second portion of the flat version of the calendar application interface. The roll-up region includes a plurality of calendar option icons (e.g.,  7210 ,  7220 ), each respective calendar option icon in the plurality of calendar option icons responsive to a user selection gesture on the respective calendar option icon. The device detects ( 886 ) a user selection gesture on one or more of the plurality of calendar option icons. The device redisplays ( 888 ) the flat version of the calendar application interface with information corresponding to the one or more calendar option icons upon which user selection gestures were detected. 
     In some embodiments, the device detects ( 890 ) user selection gestures on at least two of the plurality of calendar option icons. The device redisplays ( 892 ) the flat version of the calendar application interface with information corresponding to the at least two of the plurality of option icons upon which user selection gestures were detected. 
     In some embodiments, the curled version of the calendar application interface includes ( 894 ) a third portion (e.g.,  7351 ,  FIG. 7M ) of the flat version of the calendar application interface. In some embodiments, the third portion is displayed ( 896 ) in the curled version of the calendar application interface in a manner that is visually distinct from display of the third portion in the flat version of the calendar application interface. 
     In some embodiments, the flat version of the calendar application interface is redisplayed ( 8102 ) in response to detecting a second user gesture on the view options icon. 
     In some embodiments, the device displays ( 8104 ) a roll up animation that transitions from displaying the flat version of the calendar application interface to displaying the curled version of the calendar application interface. In some embodiments, the device displays ( 8106 ) a roll down animation that transitions from displaying the curled version of the calendar application interface to redisplaying the flat version of the calendar application interface with information corresponding to the one or more calendar option icons upon which user selection gestures were detected. 
     In some embodiments, the curled page includes ( 8108 ) an inverted, translucent representation of a portion of the flat version of the calendar application interface. In some embodiments, the curled page includes ( 8110 ) a translucent representation of a portion of the flat version of the calendar application interface. 
     In some embodiments, the user selection gestures are finger gestures on the touch screen display ( 8112 ). 
       FIG. 8F  is flow diagram illustrating a method  8120  of receiving displaying calendar invitations in accordance with some embodiments. The method  8120  is performed on a portable multifunction device with a touch screen display (e.g., portable multifunction device  100 ). The method  8120  provides a simple and intuitive way for a user to view a calendar invitation if the device receiving the invitation is locked. 
     The device receives ( 8122 ) a calendar invitation, from a party to a user of the device, while the device is locked (e.g., UI  7000 G,  FIG. 7G ). The device displays ( 8124 ) at least a portion of the calendar invitation (e.g.,  7120 ) on the touch screen display while the device remains locked. In response to detecting a user request to view the calendar invitation, the device immediately displays ( 8126 ) the calendar invitation in a calendar application. 
     In some embodiments, while the device is locked, the device changes ( 8128 ) an unlock icon (e.g.,  306 ,  FIG. 7C ) to a view-invitation icon (e.g.,  309 ,  FIG. 7G ) when displaying the portion  7120  of the calendar invitation. 
     In some embodiments, if no user selection of the view-invitation icon is detected within a predetermined period of time (e.g., 5 or 10 seconds), the device ceases ( 8130 ) to display the portion of the calendar invitation on the touch screen display, and changes ( 8132 ) the view-invitation icon back to the unlock icon. 
       FIG. 9  is a schematic diagram of a communications system  900  that provides infrastructure support for a portable multifunction device  100  in accordance with some embodiments.
