Window Vista Outlook Calendar Sync Add-ins disabled tips

If using Windows Vista and having trouble syncing calendar, follow Apple's instructions for disabling add-ins.... BUT ..... run Outlook as an Administrator. If you can't remove some of the add-ins running as an Admin will solve your problem.

Try this. Forgive me as I am not at my work computer but expericenced exactly the same problems.
Go to edit your email account and assuming you are using outlook 2003 since I don't 2007 you will need to find the dialog box that says something to the effect of send your information to your personal documents. It is a drop down menu within settings. You will then need to close outlook and open it again. Try syncing your iphone and this worked like a charm for me.
To sum it up your mail,contacts, and calendar entries are curetnly being stored on your work server. Iphone doesn't like that. When you tell outlook to store these items on your personal documents they then are stored on your hard drive and Iphone loves that. When I first tried doing this I noticed that I didn't have the option to send these items to my persnal files so if that is the case for you you will need to create it by clicking add and just pointing to personal files.
I hope this helps.

Windows Vista vs Calendar Sync for Pocket PC

Is there a way to get Calendar Sync for Pocket PC to work under Windows Vista? It seem that Active Sync no longer exists in Vista, and Calendar Sync won't install without it.

Apparently it is still not available. If it is, they're hiding it well... It has been a year since the last update on this thread - does anybody have any better information on Vista support?

Outlook Calendar Sync Frustration

Ok....I've done it all. I've reinstalled....numerous times...earlier iTunes versions...operating systems...reduced my pst files to less than five appointments, none of which are recurring...rebuilt pst files....you name it, I've done it. My Outlook calendar still does not sync with iPhone/iTunes. I get the "outlooksyncclient.exe" has encountered a problem and needs to close..." error message. I'm inclined to subscribe to the point of view I saw from one poster that PocketMirror/Palm figured it out, Apple should be able to as well.
What really appears to be happening is that one of the two add-ins that iTunes/iPhone requires isn't being loaded. According to Apple documentation, you need "iTunes Outlook" and "Outlook iTunes Sync" add-ins. I only get the iTunes Outlook" add-in from iTunes, no matter what version I install, reinstall, deinstall, reinstall, etc. One would think that if "syncing" is the problem, you'd want to get that second "Outlook iTunes Sync" add-in loaded and seen by the OS, no?
Even when I was with a VERY good tech at the local Apple store, he didn't want to touch the issue that the add-in wasn't being loaded. To be fair, he saw it on the computer (haven't been able to locate it myself, but I saw it when he ran a registry list), but somehow it's either not being activated OR seen by iTunes. Seems to be a key player here, but the tech could only report the issue to tech support...leaving me in the dark since there is no way to follow up on the progress of the report to tech support.
Am I alone here? For a smart phone/PDA, not syncing with what is probably the most used corporate contact management software's calendar is, well, not very smart (especially right out of the gate on this cutting edge tool).
I'm not complaining about the phone features. It's LEAGUES above any phone I've seen. Having an iPod on board is just bonus. The Map widget is great too, especially linked in with the contacts (...which, by the way, seems to sync fine with Outlook...). But come on...if you can pull all that off, what's up with not being able to do the calendar? Want to lose the majority of sales folks out there that could truly benefit from this product? No sweat, just don't put a priority on fixing this Outlook calendar sync issue.
I'm posting this because I have a feeling that if I don't, and no one else voices this opinion, it won't be addressed....and this would be a shame since this product has so much immense potential.

Re-installation of iTunes is missing "Outlook iTunes Sync add-in"

I was having syncing issues between iPhone calendar and MS Outlook 2007. The date and time as incorrect after resync. I reinstalled iTunes and removed some non-iTunes add-in's and this seems to have fixed the problem. But, the re-installation of iTunes is missing the "Outlook iTunes Sync add-in". I only have the "iTunes Outlook add-in". Is the "Outlook iTunes Sync add-in" necessary?
Thanks....

No, the second add-in has not been part of iTunes since the release of version 7.4.

Outlook Calendar Sync has stopped working

Prior to iTunes 7.4.X, Outlook Calendar Sync was working OK.
Now, it does not. No new calendar entries posted in Outlook following the installation of iTunes 7.4.X make it into the iPhone.
I've tried all the usual tricks - reinstall iTunes, reset the iPhone, nothing helps.
Any ideas out there?

hi, thanks, i tried that as described here in the troubleshooting faq - no improvement.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305845
here's what i noticed however, there's not a second add-in as described in the doc. the Outlook iTunes Sync add-in is missing on the system entirely. after re-installing, iTunes, it's still not there and so can't be added through browsing to the iTunes dir and therefore i can't select it.
where can you get this second add-in? also following these instructions, i deselected the microsoft outlook mobile service add-in which sounds like it might be needed. ??
thanks for any help.

Major problems with iPhone 4 & iPad 2 both 5.1.1. - Outlook Calendar sync

Folks, really need some help here, being forced to revert to Blackberry Bold 9000 because of issues with Outlook Calendar sync since 5.1.1 upgrade on both my iPhone & iPad. Our company Enterprise Active Sync server is 2003 (please don't mention upgrade - already a seperate conversation byt all costs).
email sync's fine on both devices, plus i can continue to use both iCloud accounts, and BT yahoo mail etc !
national holidays set up in Outlook calendar come across, as does some calendar items, but then falls into a resync mode with nothing staying in the device, i can also see and read calendar invites, but once accepted, they disappear !
Searching the internet suggests I'm not alone with this issue - any ideas welcome, seems not to be a problem on os 4 !!! but A) I don't know how to regress and B) why should I ?
Many thanks in advance, please don't make me go back to a BB !!!
Finally, I've been using the devices without issue for nearly 2 years - so again it's linked to 5.1.1. upgrade !

Hi Tim
Firstly, apologies for the slow response to your very quick reply !
I've checked back, we're using Exchange 2007.
We've actually got a ticket open with Apple at present, so anticipate that a patch may be available.
It is still curious though that out of a 200 user community trialling our internal iPhone & iPad pilot, we only have 2 issues (mine and a colleagues), however anticipate that there will be more issues as nearly entire community is on 5.1.1.
On a second point, any ideas how one can rollback to 4.3.3 on an iPhone or iPad ? I can't find anything that implies a self rollback without jail breaking the device ?
Thanks again for the help.

Some calendar entries do not sync: Windows Vista -- Outlook 2007 -- 3GS

I have a couple of calender entries that refuse to sync. beween my Windows Vista machine running Outlook 2007 and my iPhone 3GS.
I bought some airline tickets from USAir and they sent reservation information in an e-mail that I added to outlook. Although the "appointment" looks normal in Outlook it will not sync. I also have one event on the iPhone that won't sync "back" to Outlook.
So far I have tried:
* Reseting the sync. history in iTunes
* Setting the "Replace information on this iPhone" for the Calendar setion.
* Making an edit in the non-syncing entries so they would show as needing to be synced to the other device.
None of these things has made the entries sync....
Any ideas apprecaited....

Ok after MUCH messing around it appeared that the problem was somewhere in one of my "repeating events". Myself and the Apple guy concluded this after exporting all of my calendar events to a CSV file and then re-importing them. All the events went to the iPhone without issue so the initial diagnosis was data corruption in one of these events causing a sync. failure.
I was willing to go along with this diagnosis and figure out which event was corrupt since that seemed to be the problem.
MY ONLY COMPLAINT to Apple at the time was that this condition should have given an error message during sync. - just a "basic" QA check of the sync. would show the number of calender events in Outlook did not match the number of calender events in the iPhone ... apparently this is NOT performed by the iTunes Sync. tool.
Anyway I deleted ALL recurring events from my calender sync-ed and all was well.
I started adding back the repeating events to find the "broken" event. This turned out not to be possible as it would "break" in seemingly random places.
For example I have about 60 annually repeating events (birthdays and anniv.) I added back the first 20 ... it broke. Ah-ha the problem is somewhere in #1 - 20 of 60. So I add just the "last" 40 ... it still breaks... hmmmmmm do I have MULTIPLE "break points"???
Ok ... so I just start re-adding them manually one at a time ....
I have a grandfather that was born in 8/28/1915. When I add his birthday to the calendar in Outlook (by entering his birthdate on the details page of his contact record in Outlook) a annually repeating event that repeats forevery starting on 8/28/1915 gets added to the calender. iTunes would NOT sync. this event.
I deleted it, re-resync-ed, then re-added the birthday and EDITED it to start the repeating event on 8/28/2000. This time a sync. worked OK and the birthday is on my iPhone ... this is very screwy. Again no error messages from iTunes at any time.
So I do not know what the "metrics" are for valid events, but if something as simple as the one above confuses iTunes I sure could have a lot of "bad" events that are in fact not corrupt.
So I do not know what the "metrics" are for valid events, but if something as simple as the one above confuses iTunes I sure could have a lot of "bad" events that are in fact not corrupt. There has got to be something weird going on with the way iTunes handles "repeating" events in terms of a "ceiling" as to how many times it can repeat or the total number of repeating events that can be sync-ed or something like that ... that seems to be the only "thread" I can find .... it does not appear to be corrupt data, but perhaps event types that the iTunes/iPhone can not handle???
Not a happy boy.

New itunes & Firmware - Outlook calendar sync is now worse than before!

I have tried everything in the latest help file. Uninstalled and reinstalled new itunes and firmware. Reset sync history. Turned off all other add-ins except Apple, etc., etc.
At least before, a Cal sync would at least get the holidays from Outlook 2007. Now the iPhone calendar is COMPLETELY blank.
What is going on with this. Does anyone have their calendar synching? Is this a problem for all users on XP or just some?
I cannot believe Apple would let this go soooo long without a proper fix.

Hey PTBoater,
Well, I finally got the Calendar in Outlook 2007 to sync properly!
I have Win XP with Office 2007.
It seems there must have been something corrupt within the Calendar, in the .pst file. Not sure what but the more I thought about that .pst file, I have been using it for many years and continually moving it to my next system or software version.
Despite the fact that I deleted just about all of the entries in the Calendar and just kept the ones from the last month. Still did not work.
Plan A
Go into Outlook and print out your calendar, as far as necessary. Unfortunately, you will have to rebuild your calendar manually. The calendar printout will assist in recalling the date, time and purpose, etc. When I did mine, I simply worried about upcoming appointments and therefore, it was not a big issue. I later added holidays in Outlook, using the holiday add function and that worked fine and sync’d ok.
Go to your .pst file. If it is in its default location it will be C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.
I copied the original .pst file and made a duplicate copy and left them in their original directory. Then I renamed both files, to oldoutlook.ddd and oldoutlook1.ddd so Outlook could not find them any longer.
I then opened Outlook 2007 and of course it gave me an error about not being able to find the .pst file and it suggested a new .pst file, etc. I accepted the new file.
Then, I went back to the original .pst file and renamed it back to what it was normally, I believe was outlook.pst
I then opened Outlook (which opened the new file, not any of the old files) and used the File>Import, to selectively import all of the items, except the calendar.
Unfortunately, this made the process a little long but I was able to finish it in about 30 minutes.
How-To
In Outlook 2007, Choose File>Import & Export. Choose "Import from another program or file." Click Next. When you get to the “Import a File” dialog box, choose “Personal Folder Files (.pst)”. Click Next.
Then Browse to the location of your .pst file. If it is in its default location it will be C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook.
Once you get to the Outlook structure, you will notice many folders, as part of your .pst file. DO NOT choose the first listing, which will import everything within your .pst file. Rather, go down the list and selectively import one item at a time, being careful to NOT import the Calendar.
Once you have completed this, you can begin re-building your calendar. A lengthy work-around but it is nice the sync is finally working.
Hope this helps!

Iphone to Outlook Calendar sync issue

My Iphone receives new posts from Outlook Calendar when in sync, but Outlook is not receiving new calendar entries from my Iphone when it is synched
Thanks

How about putting together the information about this nasty bug at a single place in this forum?

Itunes/Outlook Calendar Syncing Issue - UTF-8 Flavor

I have had the usual and much discussed issue of outlook calendar does not sync with iTunes. The recommendations have been to remove iTunes and re-install, even blow away all the configuration files as well, and it even worked for me once. But not this time.
I was running Windows XP, and all of a sudden the Outlook 2007 calendar just stopped syncing. I upgraded from XP to 8.1, and that was not fun, but inevitable, and still didn’t correct the problem. Now, if you never upgraded from XP to 8.1 – you can’t – at least it is not a direct flight. First, you have to upgrade from XP to 8.0, then from 8.0 to 8.1, and there is no upgrade in place from XP to 8.0. So what does an upgrade in place mean? Your applications and profiles are not carried over. Just your data (if you ask nicely) is carried over – but all applications have to be re-installed from scratch, and reactivated if there was license activation.
So, forget about re-install of iTunes, I changed OS, reinstalled iTunes and Office 2007 from scratch. And still had the syncing problem. So, I wasn’t getting off easy.
In searching, I found some debugging stuff which I tried, as follows to turn on logging:
So, I ran the following:
cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\
defaults write com.apple.Outlook.client.exe ShouldLog YES
defaults write -globalDomain SyncServicesLogEverything YES
defaults write -globalDomain SyncServicesLogPersonalInfo YES
And this turned on a lot of tracing. The tracing helped me understand what was going on under the covers, But I am not sure I was getting enough of the information that I needed to really zero in on the bad record.
Now, I will pause and provide some observation of my specific Sync.
An iTunes Sync on a Windows machine when using Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer is selected on the INFO tab of the page for the device.
Selections include Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks and Notes.
One of the programs involved with Outlook Synchronization is: com.apple.Outlook.client.exe
The program is called when Outlook data needs to be accessed, and is used for contacts, calendar and notes when those items are paired between the iDevice and Outlook. Bookmarks are usually paired with the browser, for example IE.
During the sync operation, each of these are sync’d separately, that is why if you follow the sync actions, iTunes will reflecting what is being synced at the moment, for example “syncing contacts”.
When syncing the calendar, and iTunes is running a slow sync, it reads the Outlook calendar using the com.apple.Outlook.client.exe and does processing of the recursion and time zone information.
For example, for recurrence:
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:30:59 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] Setting recurrence data <04300430 0d200200 000000ae 06000c00 00000000 00000400 00002120 0000e703 00000000 00000000 00000000 0000a0e7 980cc016 d10c0630 00000830 00000000 0000a005 00000000 00000000 00000000>
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:30:59 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] 0 recurrence exceptions
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:30:59 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] Reading the Extended Exception Info (i.e. Unicode data)
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:30:59 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] Done making compatible recurrence
For example, for timezone:
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:30:43 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] Could not create a time zone from outlook name, tried using name (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
Then the calendar entries are pushed, for example:
ca965dbc4717d9488fafc9266f1f829304082700 =     {
        "all
day" = 1;
        calendar
=         (
            ca965dbc4717d9488fafc9266f1f829382800000
"com.apple.outlook.freebusy" = Free;
"com.apple.syncservices.RecordEntityName" = "com.apple.calendars.Event";
        "end date" = "2020-05-11 12:00:00 +0000";
        location = "United States";
        "start date" = "2020-05-10 12:00:00 +0000";
        summary = "Mother's Day";
So, my SYNC fails, and I crash and burn with:
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:41:22 2014] [_ISDVLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] SyncServices assertion failure (nil != strUTF8) in [(null) (null)], SDLogging.m:641 could not obtain UTF-8 flavor of formatted string
[5484 @ Tue Jul 01 10:41:23 2014] [YSLog com.apple.Outlook.client.exe] objcMain caught an exception:
name
NSInternalInconsistencyException
reason     : [(null)
(null)]: could not obtain UTF-8 flavor of formatted string
user info : (null)
call stack : (
Now I’m back. So, during the extract and push of the outlook calendar entries, iTunes is building formatted strings. Now, Unicode is usually 16 bit (2 characters) Unicode, sometimes called double byte code. UTF-8 is single byte, so realize you can’t squeeze 16 bits into a 8 bit byte. However, you could if the Unicode string only contained characters that were valid for the UTF-8 character set. My interpretation of the error message above was that somewhere a formatted character string contained a “non-UTF-8” character and raised the assertion. Now, my issue with the excessive detailing from the logs was that – at least with the logging parameters I had turned on – I couldn’t figure out which calendar entry caused the exception to be thrown.
First instinct was that the last calendar entry in the trace was the culprit, so I deleted that calendar entry, ran again, the sync went up to the previous entry, and threw the exception. This gives me two theories: Either the sync was processing the next entry – which wasn’t printed in the trace yet – and failed, or the sync was going back to previous records – like reviewing the buffer. In either case, the trace wasn’t helping and it was all theories.
Now what? What has everyone been saying? Issues with recurrence. And in the trace, as you see above as an example, “0 recurrence exceptions”, “reading the extended exception info (i.e. Unicode data)”.
Now, I have no clue what that means. My initial guess was that recurrence exceptions (I had non-zeros on some) was an error. But further research I realized what it could mean was that these were situations where there were recurrence exceptions. What is a recurrence exception? Suppose I want to schedule a meeting on the 4th day of the month, for every month of the year. Well, except maybe July 4th, because it is a holiday and the office is closed. I would send the meeting invite, and then a cancellation for the July 4th. (I hear there is no simple way to do this). I now have an exception because I broke the recurrence chain. Other forms of exceptions is if I keep changing the location, or the body of the invite – e.g. every month I update the agenda, but only for one recurrence, not the entire series.
So, keep in mind, that if the issue is conversion to a UTF-8 character, and it is failing, then uninstall/reinstall of anything is not going to help if the real issue at hand is the data in Outlook and is not a coding or configuration issue. Now, sometimes it is an issue, but you need to see why the syncserver tasks are failing, and may fail due to other reasons including other data issues.
So, what did I do? Well IO have 15K calendar entries, which, was taking an hour or two to slow sync (I call it a slow dance) and I was,spending days (maybe a couple of weeks) trying to fix this – and frustration was on the high end.
I removed some of my older recurrences, and changed others from never expire to like 25 maximum occurrences. No idea which one worked, or even if it was a coincidence. However, the UTF-8 error went away, and then I moved to the next issue.
Now, before we get there, with outlook 2007 finding recurrences is not difficult. Go into the calendar, and select appointment or list view (Outlook 2013 list view works ok). You can then sort on the recurrence column and see which (if any) items gave a recurrence pattern. Now maybe someone can figure out specific BAD calendar items that are throwing the exception to give us a better idea of what to look for and then report it so we can do further research.
Now, once we can get the issue out of the way, stop iTunes from throwing an exception, we are not 100% done yet. By this time what is in Outlook and on the iDevice is out of sync. We need to get that message to popup asking us if we want to merge the data between the iDevice and Outlook. This can be important if you don’t want to lose data. My issue is that with iTunes 11.2.2 for some reason won’t do it, i.e. when I select “reset sync history” it doesn’t work. At that point I was forced to rename my iTunesprefs, the syncserver folder, and a few other folders. In this case, for Windows 7 and later, the folders in “Apple Computer” of both the local and roaming paths, and I had to cancel running tasks that had those folders open. One way or another, you want the iTunes message asking if you want to merge the folders.
What can you do to help?
Report success or failures using the information above
Report if you are getting the same UTF-8 message, or if you are seeing other exceptions
Report specific cases of calendar entries that you find that you have isolated to be throwing an exception
Report any other logging/tracing parameters that you may find. It looks like you can turn on “ShouldLog” using the defaults.exe command for other tasks that iTunes runs.
This syncing issue has been going on for years, under different iTunes versions, there has to be something going on and an easier way to troubleshoot this problem. I wish I had the time, but right now I fixed the problem I had and was able to resync my Outlook with my two iPads and iPhone.
The only issue I have left at the moment is the message “the ipad xxx cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-54). – despite this error message, I am syncing, but the message is distracting and annoying.

Yes - both have time zone support and are set to London/GMT
The most recent of these aberrations was not even crossing a DST change - just a simple recurring event (which I've manually changed to single events by copy/paste).
I just tried a new one which goes back 1 hr 27 Oct - when UK clocks go back. As it's a dummy apt I'll leave it and see if if goes back to the correct time on 27 Oct! In the meantime, I can't afford for my appts to get screwed up so will continue to do them manually!
Thanks for your input.

Outlook Calendar Sync Issue "Microsoft Office Outlook Offline Folders"

I am experiencing an issue synchronizing my Outlook Calendar with my iPhone. I am using the latest version of Itunes (7.6.2.9).
To reproduce:
1) Sync Outlook calendar with Iphone.
In Outlook, the following error displays:
"Microsoft Office Outlook Offline Folders"
"The file C:\Documents and Settings\<name>\Local Settings\Application Data\microsoft\outlook\outlook.ost is in use and could not be accessed. Close any application that is using the file, and then try again."
At this point, in order to view any mail or calendar entries, I am required to reboot my computer and relaunch Outlook. I had to disable synchronization with the iphone.
I followed the troubleshooting Calendars hints from the Support site, and I clicked "Reset Sync History." This seems to have temporarily fixed the problem, but I am not confident I won't receive the error again.
Is there a permanent fix for this?

This may be more than a temporary fix, so I would wait and cross that bridge if and when the same error message turns up.

Vista & Outlook 2007: Sync with second XP & Outlook 2003 - The passed buffer is too small for the reply data

Dear Community,
I'm synchronising my T3 with two PCs. One with Vista & Outlook 2007 and the other with XP & Outlook 2003. Both with the latest conduit & Hotsync Manager versions installed for each OS based on the availability on the Palm Website.
My problem is that when I synchronise the T3 with either PC and then try to sync it with the other I'm receiving the following error message for the Calendar:
Outlook Calendar
The passed buffer is too small for the reply data.
OLERR:0D-0008
OLERR:0D-0004
OLERR:0D-0001
- Slow Sync
Outlook Calendar synchronization failed
The second time the sync is successful but takes a long time and the actual problem is that it creates duplicates for records previously changed on either PC - but with a sync in between those changes, i.e. no conflict in the sense that the same record was changed in both environments since the last sync. I have configured the conflict handling to establish a hierarchy PC1-T3-PC2 but try to avoid them by synchronising as often as possible.
Has anyone come across that problem or any ideas? Can you somehow adjust the buffer size for the sync? I have been using Lotus Organiser & then the various Outlook versions for a number of years.
Thank you
Rainer

As they say on TV, "Doh"!!!
I figured out the problem. I started the Sync tool, selected "Settings", then "Mcrosoft Outlook" tab and then "Select Folders" button. I browsed to the proper folders in Outlook (Calendar, Tasks, etc). Select OK enough times and retried the sync.
It worked.

Office outlook Calendar Sync

I have a 20GB colour click wheel IPod purchased late 2004.
Windows is XP with SP2 installed and updated regularly.
ITunes is the latest edition.
Microsoft Office is 2003 edition.
Problem is that I am trying to sync my Microsoft Office Outlook calendar with my IPod. However, despite ITunes stating that it is updating my calendar it does not. At the end of the automatic sync my song and photo library are correct, but my calendar remains empty.
