[missing-sync-palmos-talk] bug with repeating events

[Brian M. Criscuolo]

David,

I assure you that all these items were tested. Alarms with sounds  
were tested, but changes were required for a different alarm type  
(not iCal's default one) after we released and that change introduced  
another issue. Monthly repeating events were tested in many  
permutations; unfortunately maybe not the exact one that you are using.

We'll get them fixed - hopefully before you give up on us.

Are you using 10.4.3? If so, did you update to that *after* you began  
using Missing Sync 5? I ask because there *appear* to be significant  
enough changes in Sync Services (what we actually sync to - not iCal  
or Address Book) that what we tested in development is not what is  
going on now. There is one that I'm sure of and will be reporting to  
Apple today; others I'm still trying to figure out just what is  
working differently.
