View Full Version : Problem Syncing Outlook Tasks between 2 PCs

Hi everyone,
I currently sync my Pocketpc device (an XDA) with 2 PCs. I cannot get recurring tasks to synchronise correctly between the 2 PCs. For example, a recurring task ticked off as complete on one PC, that naturally results in the task being autogenerated to the next occurence, seems to sync fine with the Pocket PC device, i.e. the Pocket PC shows the new autogenerated task consistently as a new 'Active task'. However, when syncing the device with the second PC this new 'Active task' does not update the 'Due Date' field and so I am left with the original occurence of the task on the second PC.
The only solution to get round this appears to be to constantly update the 'Range of recurrence' start date field to the 'Due Date' in every newly recurring task. This is disappointing to say the least.
If anyone could shed some light on this I would be most grateful. Many thanks
