  In step S9, the calendar update server 53 first determines whether or not the schedule information S (update target schedule information S) changed in the calendar providing server 4 has been changed in the mobile device 3. This determination is made by comparing the file name F of the schedule information S stored in the calendar information storage unit 31 of the mobile device 3 with the file name F of the schedule information S stored in the schedule database 52. That is, if these file names F are the same, the calendar update server 53 determines that the schedule information S to be updated has not been changed in the mobile device 3, and if these file names F are different (one is deleted) It is determined that the schedule information S to be updated has been changed in the mobile device 3.

  If it is determined that the schedule information S to be updated has not been changed in the mobile device 3, the calendar update server 53 uses the file name F to change the schedule information S stored in the calendar information storage unit 31. Then, it is overwritten and updated with the schedule information S updated in the calendar providing server 4 (that is, the schedule information S stored in the schedule database 52). On the other hand, when it is determined that the schedule information S to be updated has been changed in the mobile device 3, the calendar update server 53 does not overwrite the schedule information S stored in the calendar information storage unit 31 and updates the schedule database. The update target schedule information S stored in 52 is added to the calendar information storage unit 31.

  Thereafter, the calendar update server 53 performs synchronization period excess processing for each schedule information S stored in the synchronization information area of the schedule database 52 (step S10). That is, the calendar update server 53 measures the elapsed time from the provision of the calendar providing server 4 for each schedule information S. Then, the calendar update server 53 moves the schedule information S whose elapsed time has exceeded a predetermined synchronization period from the synchronous storage area to the asynchronous storage area. The schedule information S moved to the asynchronous storage area is deleted from the schedule database 52 after a predetermined time.
