  • In the menu on the left of the Event Actions window, click Email me event info to send yourself the event information in an email message.

I sent event information to my cell phone but I never received it.

You might want to confirm that you can receive text messages at your cell phone number. You can do this by sending a simple email message to the cell phone text message email address appropriate for your cell phone carrier.

For example, the email address for T-Mobile is 10DigitPhoneNumber@tmomail.net; the email address for Verizon is 10DigitPhoneNumber@vtext.com. To send the email message, you replace 10DigitPhoneNumber with your own cell phone number.

If you don't receive the simple message you send, contact your carrier to confirm that your cell phone is set up to receive text messages.
