Sync appointments - moved by one day

BirdBrain · 10-18-06, 10:55 AM

I had to do a hard reset of my X50v, so while setting things back up I took the opportunity to move to AS 4.2 (to accomodate an X51v along with the X50v). Both Axims will sync, but on the X50v (with WM2003SE), one set of appointments (NHL games) that I had imported to Outlook are moved one day later - a Monday game is sync'd as a Tuesday game. I imported the game schedule to Outlook 2003 using an *.ics file, and the games display correctly in Outlook. All other appointments that I entered previously (before the hard reset of the X50v) display correctly. :rolling:

I have done a detect and repair of the Outlook files, hard reset my X50v again, and sync'd a second time with the same result. The game schedule syncs correctly to the X51v, along with other appointments in Outlook. I have not loaded any add-ins or additional software to either device yet.

Any ideas on why certain appointments would be moved by one day in syncing with WM2003 but not WM5??!!

Edit: WM2003 seems to see the appointments as all day events instead of appointments with a specific starting time and ending time (though start and end times are present in Outlook). Must have something to do with it, but not sure why the times are ignored. Arghhh.... any help would be appreciated!

Check your regional settings and date/time on Axim and make sure they are the same as your PC.

Thanks, Sax; I did, and all were set to the same time zone, with automatic adjustment for daylight savings time.

Go Big Red!

OK, well no other ideas, so I resorted to manually changing all the 'all day events' to appointments and moving them to the correct day on the X50v. At least now they show up at the right times, and remain as appointments not all day events. And they match up with what was sync'd to the X51v so no new appointments or events are created. Something about that initial sync to the X50v where the games were sync'd as 'all day events' for some reason; then, when I tried to sync a second time all of the 'all day events' were sync'd back to Outlook.
