    Hello, I have a problem with outlook syncronisation all our P800 phones. If
    we for instance make a birthday in outlook calendar and set it up to be a
    whole day event, it will NOT synchronise. But if we select a "time-period"
    for the yearly event, i.e from 8 - 8.30, it synchronises with outlook (2000)
    Any ideas around this??
    I don't know if it makes any difference but we have tried to install Handy
    dates on the phones, but the synchronised yearly items doesn't appear in
    HandyDates, they appear in Calendar.

    Regards,
    Lars H, Oslo Norway

    P800 and P900 phones do NOT sync Repeating Events with Outlook (much to my
    absolute disgust).

    One can only hope for an update. I gather the underlying Calendar
    sub-system in the phone does support it but its the Outlook integration
    that does not work.

    A friend of mine indicated that Ical (I think thats what it's called) on
    the Macintosh does sync Repeating events.

    I live in hope.

    Thank you for the reply! It is most annoying that this functionality isn't
    there.. We will then have to change all the events in outlook from "all day"
    to i.e 8:00 - 8:00 and mark ourselves as free, then it syncs..

    Which kind of repeating items are not synched? Mine at least syncs these,
    ordinary, weekly repeating appointments.

    Hi Pete, the items not synched are neverending yearly events (for ex.
    birthdays) marked with the "whole day" alternative. I can synch yearly
    events, but the only way is to set it up with a time to and from i.e 8:00 -
    8:00 (and then mark myself as free)

    I can confirm that Apple Macintosh's iSync successfully syncs repeating
    events from iCal. Although, pager numbers from the Address Book does not
    have a field in the P800 and is therefore not synched. I have since changed
    all my old pager numbers to be described as mobile phone numbers.

    My only problem is that on my Work Outlook 2002, if I go into Calendar and
    view events, then use the field chooser to show the 'All Day' checkbox, if
    I try to un-check this (to make the event Non-all-day), I get 'Permission
    Denied, cannot move item'.

    Anyone know how to overcome this?

    I am not keen on re-keying all 140 recurring anniversaries and birthdays
    I have on file!

    Repeating whole day events (ie with no start-stop time, only start-stp
    date)
