Duplicate recurring appts when syncing with Outlook 2003
- I've entered peoples' bdays & annivs under their contact info in my address book, which automatically puts those dates as recurring appts on my calendar, but now every time I sync, it's creating duplicate appts for these bdays & annivs. I've searched these forums up and down (and I spent the last hour searching on google) for some help and I've found nothing. Is anyone having this kind of problem or does anyone have any suggestions?...I'll try 'em!
(Mods, if this is in the wrong forum - which I think it might be, even though I have a Curve 8330 - please move it for me.)
Thanks all!05-19-08 12:59 PMLike 0 - Yes, I am having the same issue. It didn't happen until I upgraded my verizon BB OS software to .97 two days ago. When I synced, it added 85 new appointments, and they were all duplications. I'm curious to see if anyone has a solution.06-20-08 05:01 PMLike 0
- its a bug when upgrading from the 4.2 world to the 4.5 world. there are apparently some incompatibilities between the calendars.
beware also - if you backup and decide to downgrade (from 4.5 back to 4.2), you will not be able to restore your address book or your calendar. the restore file itself will be intact, you just won't be able to restore it to your BB..
solution/workaround - to be super safe, always backup via desktop mgr AND sync calendar/address book to Outlook before upgrading/downgrading. you will always be able to sync up w/ Outlook (as well as having a tangible backup to peruse).
pm me if you have questions...07-01-08 02:44 PMLike 0 - I've entered peoples' bdays & annivs under their contact info in my address book, which automatically puts those dates as recurring appts on my calendar, but now every time I sync, it's creating duplicate appts for these bdays & annivs. I've searched these forums up and down (and I spent the last hour searching on google) for some help and I've found nothing.
