I'd be ever so appreciative if one of us figures out how to solve this issue
too.

Similar issues here, forced to use Outlook/Enterprise Blackberry at the office
but using SwitchSync Ex w/ my Palm Tx (used to have the same issues w/ my LD as
well) to sync w/ both Outlook and the Palm Desktop. I find the Palm Desktop
interface much more user friendly to manage my day to day schedule, phone
contacts, etc., but do use the office Blackberry's phone and email capabilities.

Even after the initial sync and I go thru the Outlook calendar and delete all
the duplicate entries, some of them seem to come back again and again? Any and
all hints greatly appreciated.

Thanks, MW / KJ4LFY

Subject: [ LifeDrive ] Synchronization issues with the BlackBerry

Don't be afraid, I'm writing this post to the right group. Here goes.

For those who have followed my posts over the few couple of weeks, you are aware
that upper management in my organization have decided to provide us each with a
BlackBerry. The tell the truth, I'm not too crazy about this new technology, but
that's not the essence of my post.

Our BBs use the BlakBerry Enterprise Server that allow for instant replication
of our schedules, mails, tasks, etc to our mobile from our Outlook account. So
far not a problem. I insist on keeping my LD because, aside from the phone, that
fills the need to have mobile computing. I could care less for e-mail reaching
me when I'm in a meeting or going to the johns.

Problems started to creep up when I synch my LD with my laptop. If I remove
agenda items or tasks from my Outlook account, they are put right back by the
next Hot Synch. Sometimes I even get duplicate or triplicate copies of the same
appointment or task. The worse kind seem to be the meetings scheduled by an
invitation from a colleague. They are sticky as hell and seem to reproduce
themselves faster than I can remove them.

I really want to keep synchronizing my LD with my agenda and tasks (and
contacts) because I can't get used to the BB (Storm) keyboard and tiny screen
(and no decent external keyboard, and not decent word processor, and...)

Anyway, hope you catch my drift and have some suggestions to offer.

regards,

Maurice
