How to solve sync problem between Outlook calendar and iPhone when reminder is set to _some_ non-standard values?

Hi,
I am having a sync problem between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook calendar events (Outlook 2010).
Here is the description of the problem:
1. In Outlook - please create a new event/appointment (e.g. "Test").
2. Reminder is set by default to 15 minutes. You can change it by using a dropdown menu - please select: "0,5 days".
3. Click on "0,5 days" and change it manually to "14,5 days".
4. Click on "Save & Close".
5. (Do not snooze or dismiss the reminder.)
6. Sync with your iPhone/iPad.
7. Open this new event on iPhone/iPad - you can see that alert is set to "15 minutes before" instead to a correct value that was set in Outlook.
The same problem can be seen if you set the reminder to e.g. "3 weeks" (standard value is "2 weeks").
However, it is interesting that non-standard values like "1,5 days" (and all other until "13,5 days") are synced without any problem.
Does anyone have a solution how to solve this problem (different than the trivial solution of not using those strange values)?
Thanks!

Thanks to another post (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17501071#17501071) I reset the sync history, here is what to do: 
Launch iTunes.
Before you hook up your iPhone to the PC and iTunes do this: Go to iTunes Edit menu > Preferences… > select the iPhone > click the Reset Synch History button > click OK.
Connect the iPhone to the PC and let iTunes recognize it.
In the top right corner is the iPhone icon, click on the left side of the iPhone icon > the iPhone menu launches.
In the menu along the top click on Info > make your selections > click Sync button > it gives you a dialog at the top with the steps it’s going through during the sync.
In the top left of the iTunes app > click Exit.

  • Email sync problem between iPad Air and iPhone 6+

    Hello,
    I have a user that travels quite a bit. We use Office 365 Enterprise
    for our emails. He is reporting email sync issues between iPhone and iPad. Meaning
    sometimes he will receive emails on the iPhone but not on the iPad or vice versa.
    Both devices use the same AT&T network. Does anyone out there have any
    suggestions as to what may be causing the sync problem between devices? I am
    not sure if the devices ever have the same emails on the inbox. Does this make
    sense? I will be happy to provide any other information if needed.
    Thank you!

    Hey daniel hkn,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like the email account may be configured and setup as a POP account. If so, check out this resource:
    Using a POP account with more than one device - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201855
    When using the same POP email account on more than one device, email messages may appear only on the first device that receives them. This occurs when an email client is configured to automatically remove email from the server after an email client has received it. You can configure your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac either to keep a copy of the email on the server, remove it after a certain number of days have passed, or keep it until you move it from your inbox.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How do I sync Notes between my iPad and iPhone?

    My Notes on my ipad are not syncing with the notes on my iPhone. Aren't they supposed to sync?

    Not necessarily.  They would if you, for example, set them all up as iCloud notes.  This article explains:

  • Just want to sync Outlook calendar and Iphone without paying extra $$

    I am currently using Mobile Me trial membership to sync my Outlook Calendar and Iphone calendar. Just that only -- I don't want to sync my Outlook e-mail or contacts with my phone. But I don't want to pay $99 for for Mobile Me after the free trial runs out in October.
    Will I have to pay to sync?
    I need to sync them a couple times a day, it has to be secure, and I don't want to do it manually with a wire.
    Any advice?

    Jon,
    I could connect the cord and sync each night, but that's too difficult to remember.
    That's how I did it for a year with the first iPhone. It wasn't that bad.
    Still, over the air synching is pretty cool, especially if you update your calendar throughout the day and always want the latest information on the phone.

  • Not all albums are syncing with between itunes match and iphone 5.. WHY!!!

    Not all albums are syncing with between itunes match and iphone 5.. WHY!!!

    First, disable iTunes Match on the iPhone. Open the Music app and let the content clear out. Now, in iTunes, disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key (Shift for Windows). Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, and re-open it. Turn iTM back on and let it complete it's scan. The songs that are "waiting" ought to get converted to "purchased," "uploaded" or "matched." Once the scan is complete re-enable the service on the iPhone.

  • How can I sync Notes from Outlook with my iPhone

    Calendar, Contacts and E-mail works great, but I live by the notes in Outlook. I switch from Blackberry to iPhone. I am using notes to store quick account info and notes from users while working. When I am back to the office I sync everything with outlook so I can have backup in case something happens to my phone. Any chance somebody developed App that can be used to sync notes between Outlook and iPhone, or even ITunes and iPhone?

    I think I solved my problem. Contacts in Outlook have Notes section. I just created another set of contacts and rename that contact group "NOTES". I copied all my notes from notes folder in outlook to this new contact group and now my notes are syncing using exchange active sync just like my regular contacts. Problem solved without any third party application.

  • Since installing iCloud, my iPhone 3GS no longer syncs with my Outlook Calendar and Outlook Contacts.  I don't know what else to try, short of resetting the iPhone and completely reloading as a new device.  Any ideas, anyone?

    Since installing iCloud, my iPhone 3GS no longer syncs with my Outlook2010 Calendar and Outlook2010 Contacts.  I don't know what else to try, short of resetting the iPhone and completely reloading as a new device.  Any ideas, anyone?

    It's good to know.  The Apple instructions for loading iCloud on a PC just seem to have either overlooked or hidden this limit.  The larger problem is that it partially works:  partially and erratically.  So clean-up is great fun.

    What instructions?
    In the source list click devices (so far so good) then click the entry for your iphone or ipod.  that doesn't exist. HELP asap
    You don't import photos from the iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
    See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Note this only applies to photos taken with the iPhone. Any photos you previously added to your iPhone using iTunes should be copied from old computer to new computer.

  • How can I sync security between Plannig, HSS and EAS?

    Hi,
    I think that I've trouble with security. Many answers at this forum contain that I need to sync security between Plannig, HSS and EAS?
    How can I do it on EPM11.1.1.3?

    Hi,
    If you feel that Shared Services is not in sync with Planning then you can use the [provisonusers |http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hp_admin/ch03s13.html] utility.
    If you want to sync essbase with Shared Services you can either right click security in EAS and refresh from HSS or use Maxl.

  • How can I sync contacts to IMac, Icloud and Iphone

    My Contacts on my Imac have only one option in settings to sync with my google contacts.  Before Icloud all my contacts and calendar synced just fine between my Imac and Iphone.  Now with Icloud I never seem to be able to sync contact to or from my Iphone. 

    iCloud requires Mac OS X 10.7.2 or later. Your signature states you are using 10.6.5 so that could be the reason.
    You can still use iTunes to sync your contacts. You don't have to use iCloud.

  • How can I sync my work outlook calendar to a separate 'work' ICloud calendar?

    Hello everyone,
    I have been trying to work out how to keep my 'work' calendar separate to my 'family' calendar. I have an Outlook calendar at work, and would really like to have it shown in my iCloud as a work calendar, and keep it separate from my family calendar, cause I don't want everyone at work to see what my family plans are at the weekend
    The problem is that if I sync my Outlook calendar at work using iTunes, it will sync it to my main iCloud calendar where all my family entries are, and this will 'publish' all my private calendar entries at work....
    Anyone managed to set this up so that they can be synced separately. This would be really cool.
    Thanks,
    Aaron.

    When you connect your iPad in iTunes, click on your iPad below "DEVICES", then click the tab "Info" and define on that page what you want to do.
