[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Re: Missing Sync for Windows Mobile 2.0.2b2 (BETA) Version Now Available

[s.strippoli]

To Ray Towry, Will Blackie, other Entourage users and mark/space support -

  i was a bit hesitant that i might have become overly optimistic
thinking that they have finally identified and addressed the primary issues
interfering with smooth syncing of Entourage Calendar using MSWM v2.

for what it's worth, i finally made time to download the new beta and try it out.
YES,  it did advance noticeably longer/further into a complete sync of Calendar.
However, ...  it still did NOT complete successfully  :-<

this was with trashing prefs & prior data files on Powerbook (OSX 10.3.9) 
    then totally deleting ALL Calendar events on handheld, and soft reboot.
    and tried sync of **just CALENDAR** with Entourage overwrites handheld.
the resulting log entries were extremely brief or few (see below).
the first Error that MSWM gagged on  was a *recent* recurring event 6-21 to 6-22-2005
    (( 2 consecutive days,  with a STOP date specified )) 
then went on to choke twice on an annual recurring event (birthday)with a Stop date.

                    I AM GETTING WORN OUT.
