Recurring Appointments from Outlook have multiple return notifications.

When a user from a seperate office uses MS Outlook and sends one of my
users a recurring appointment (twice a week until 2011, dont ask), the
sender of the appointment receives an email confirmation of each instance
of the appointment wether it was accepted or declined. Since the sender
has created this recurring appointment until 2011, this creates roughly
150 appointment postings that our user then accepts or
declines....Problem being, the sender does not want to receive 150 email
notifications of the appointment back after the user here has accepted or
decline. In short, Im looking for a way to disable/turn off the return
notifcations of the appointment that GroupWise sends. Using groupwise
utilities and choosing None for all of the send options does not work.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I'd like to know how I can fix this as well.

ITunes not syncing recurring appointments from Outlook

Not sure if its iTunes version 10.7.0.21 or the iPhone5, but when I make changes to a recurring appointment in Outlook (the single instance, not the series) it does not reflect on iPhone's Calendar. This was useful to me when I have a monthly bill reminder and was able to mark it 'paid', for example.
Previously I had an earlier version of iTunes and a 3GS.
Thanks

I am having the same problem but I do not believe it is iTunes related as it only started to happen when I updated my iPad to IOS 6.
Recurring entries are not syncing.
My iPhone with IOS 5 still syncs Outlook recurring entries via the same copy of iTunes and Outlook on my PC.
This looks like a IOS 6 issue.

Recurring Appointments in Outlook

Hi There,
iPhone 3G connected to UK 02 Network - v2.02 Firmware
I have recurring appointments in Outlook which occur 3rd Tuesday in each month. Occasionally, these conflict with other meetings so we move them to later in the day.
When I do this, it moves OK in my outlook and notifies the other participant -- however the iPhone displays the appointment at the old and new times (duplicates).
Is this specific to the way our exhancge server is set up? Are other people experiencing the same problem?
Any suggestions? Or do I need to wait for a fix from Apple?
Thanks
Steve

There might be some similarities with my problem. Feel free also to report your problem in my "accumulative thread": http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2213281&tstart=0

HT1296 Apple does not sync my Outlook Saturday appointments, yes it leaves out only the Saturday appointments from Outlook. What to do about this?

When I sync Outlook to my iPhone, my Saturday appointments from Outlook don't appear on my iPhone calender. All other appointments are correct except there are no Saturday appoinments...weird...What to do about this?

Scanpst.exe is a repair program for the Outlook data files. You should be able to find the program in the Microsoft Office folder on the computer. You might have to search for it. After you open that, you navigate to your Outlook data file. That is generally in your Documents folder. After running it, it should tell you if it repaired anything.
Also, in iTunes, you might want to reset the sync history. That is done by opening iTunes, going to Edit, Preferences, Devices, and click on the button.
Since you are not getting sync from phone to Outlook, you may need to create a new calendar in Outlook. If you know how to create a new blank calendar, do that and add a couple of new appointments. Try weekday and weekend. After connecting the phone to the computer, make sure you have it set to sync in iTunes and try a sync. See if it works. If it does, you may need to export your other calendars to a file and then import them back to the new calendar.
You can also try creating a new calendar on the phone and syncing that to see if it shows in Outlook.

Which email service supports Diary appointments from Outlook?

I have just bought a new iphone 3G. Previously I was using a Blackberry.
I want to be able to receive diary appointments from Outlook users into a mail account so my diary appears on my iphone.
Which email service is best to set up. I have tried mobile me but the outlook appointment appears to come through with an object in the content which cannot be opened. Am I missing something?

How do i get calendar syncing recurring events from outlook to iphone to handle daylight saving time

When I sync recurring events of my PC Outlook on to the iPhone calendar they appear one hour later during summer i.e. between Mar 26th and October 27. I have a weekly thing every wednesday at 8pm that appears at 9pm in summer - so outlook seems to be sending the info in UTC time but the IPhone isn't compensating for summer time.

What do you mean "correctly". If I enter a recurring (weekly) event in Outlook at say 8pm every Monday from February till December, then Outlook calendar propagates it at 8pm every Monday from February till December, and I can see it on each Monday regardless of whether it's standard time or summer time. However when I sync with the iPhone calendar through iTunes it transmits just the start date/time and end date, and the iPhone then recreates the series of events (provable because it creates occurences that I have deleted on Outlook). However it propagates the UTC time at the start date, and gets confused by the change to Summer Time in March (and Ocotber). The iphone "corrects" the (UTC) time for Summer Time so it starts at 8pm, all summer the event appears at 7pm, and goes back to 8 in November. I have tested across both boundaries - if a recurrence starts in summer time at 8pm then from November it gets an hour later, 9pm. And you can't solve it by turning off Local Time handling on the iPhone because then all individual events through the summer are an hour out. This is a bug.
Workaround - enter separate recurrent events for each time period, so in a calendar year 3 events: Jan-end March, April-end October, Nov-Dec

IPhone calendar does not sync new events and appointments from Outlook

iTunes 9.2.0.61/iPhone 4.0.1 - does not sync newly added events and appointments! Previously added stuff is all there, new stuff added in Outlook 2007 just doesn't show up. I've gone back to my old Palm T|X which syncs all this stuff with no problem, so it's not an Outlook bug.
It looks like Apple has put a team of junior programmers on the Calendar app - I've seen leap-year bugs (still there), events showing up on the wrong day (still there), and I'm still waiting for the "week at a glance" view. Calendar is SO important for business use that top level "gray beard" engineers need to be on this. (Question for Apple's calendar developers: what's Zeller's Congruence? It they haven't heard of it they have no business doing calendar programming.)

Spontaneously started syncing again - no idea why now, nor why it failed for so long. Related to the alarm bug? Who knows...

Recurring Appointments not syncing from Outlook

My Iphone picks up the initial appointment from Outlook but not any of the reoccurences. Any ideas?

When you go into the iPhone appointment, does it say repeat? Try creating a recurring appointment on the iPhone, and sync to see if it comes over to Outlook. Then compare that appointment with the other recurring appointments you already have in Outlook to see if you notice any differences.

Unable to sync contacts & appointments through iTunes from Outlook 2011 since IOS 7

Since updating my iPhone and iPad to IOS 7, I have lost all my contacts, appointments and messages from both devices. Prior to IOS 7 I was able to sync my contacts and appointments from Outlook 2011 to my devices through Itunes. How do I restore this functionality? I've tried restoring a previous back-up but that did not work.

I had the same problem with my Nano - it suddenly stopped sync'ing Outlook contacts and appointments with no reason or explanation. I've been waiting a couple months for that solution to appear, but nothing as yet. I've tried all of the various suggestions like uninstalling, reinstalling, re-formatting, etc. to no avail. The ability to sync my Outlook info to the Nano was the main reason I bought it. A friend told me to stop beating my head against the wall because the dirty little secret is Apple's support is virtually non-existant. He pointed me to ipod-sync.com which has a sync utility for Windows that runs perfectly and does a lot more than the iTunes/iPod synch lets you do. Now I use that to sync the Nano - I only use iTunes when I'm changing the music stored on it.

Synch deletes all prior calendar appointments from my Outlook

I am encountering new and undesirable behavior when synching iPhone to Outlook.
It has worked great in the past.
Now, it deletes all appointments from Outlook prior to the day of synching.
And, it only synchs FROM Outlook TO iPhone.
Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
Thanks!

Hi Gus2013,
Can you please provide a bit more detail on this issue?
What version of Microsoft Outlook are you using?
Is it a Click-to-run installation or is it using a connector add-on?
Are your calendar and contacts stored locally on the computer in a .pst file?
When your BlackBerry Z10 smartphone is connected via usb, do you have the synchronization options displaying in BlackBerry Link?
When do you receive the message that the software does not support synchronization?
Is this when you are trying to configure the synchronization settings?
I look forward to your response.

Sync end date of custom recurring events? - Outlook to iPod touch calendar

I've been having a particular problem with my "nonstandard" recurring appointments in Outlook that give rise to a custom recurring definition in the iPod touch I just got (software 2.1.1) when I sync with iTunes (8.0.0.35) on Windows XP by USB - I can't seem to get the end date (when there is one) to be sent to the iPod! So, for example, if I have a standard once a week event over the summer, it ends properly based on the end date, but if I have say an event every Monday and Thursday over the summer, the iPod has a "custom" recurring event definition created, but no space and no evidence of the end date, and the events keep getting shown after the Outlook defined end date (continuing after summer in this example).
I tried something called CompanionLink to see if I could get a more thorough sync, but it seems to rely on the iTunes sync. I had become used to Pocket Informant on my old Pocket PC (until the Pocket PC was just crashing too often to be functional, thus the recent purchase of an iPod touch - which even if the calendar won't sync completely has allowed me to move enough programs off the Pocket PC to have it trimmed down and working better again!). I hear the people that make Pocket Informant are working on an iPhone / iPod touch version.
In the meantime, any suggestions about the lack of end date syncing for custom recurring events, other than waiting for an Apple update (how, by the way, can i make a request to Apple? - it wasn't too clear to me on this website).
Thanks!

HT4864 Do I need to use Outlook as my email programme instead of Outlook Express if I want to use The Cloud to sync between PC and iPad? Can I transfer my contacts, emails and diary appontments from Outlook Express to Outlook?

Do I need to use Outlook as my email programme instead of Outlook Express if I want to use The Cloud to sync between PC and iPad? Can I transfer my existing contacts, emails and diary appointments from Outlook Express to Outlook? What is cheapest way to aquire Outlook?

iCloud only "syncs" data in the iCloud account, not data in other external accounts such as Gmail, Yahoo, etc. If your email, contacts and calendars are hosted by another external account, such as Gmail/Google, you may want to not sync this data using iCloud as you would have import it all to the iCloud account in order to do so. Instead, add your external account to your iOS devices and in Settings>Mail,Conacts,Calendars>Add Account and turn on contacts and calendar syncing with your external account.

PIMSync Contacts linked to appointments in Outlook/Lotus Notes

Hi,
Is it possible to automatically link appointments from Outlook Calendar or Lotus Notes to the contacts (which are invited for the appointment via Outlook or Lotus Notes) in CRM On Demand using PIMSync? If not, is there a workaround, e.g. using a different program?
Kind regards,
Niels Rekers

Niels, not at this time. However, you should see something in R17!
