Appointments not showing up in Day/Week/Month View
It's Apple's problem Because of past issues with the itunes addin for
outlook which is required for calendar sync, we think that is where the current problem lies. The common denominator seems to be itunes 7.7 - both iphone versions are affected and we've had a few reports of problems on ipods. So... if you want to try reverting to v 7.5, let us know if it fixes your problems. http://content.info.apple.com/iTunes...nes75Setup.exe -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com. wrote in message ...

Did you reset the reminder in Outlook? Maybe remove it?

if you need to see it on the Day/Week/Month calendar, snooze instead of
dismissing. The default is to snooze for up to 2 weeks but you can type anything there - you'll need to type use full words (6 weeks), not the shortcuts (6w) used in other date fields. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com. wrote in message ...

Appointments not showing up in Day/Week/Month View
So glad to find this! I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm using
Windows Vista Ultimate, Outlook 2007 and iTunes 7.7 and syncing from an iPhone 3G. For what it's worth, here's what I've been able to reproduce every time today: - Create a regular, non-repeating, non-all-day event on the iPhone (e.g. a simple 1-hour meeting from 9am to 10am tomorrow) - With Outlook open and in the Day/Week/Month view, connect the iPhone and sync in iTunes - Initially, the event appears correctly in Outlook - Now switch away from the calendar view in Outlook (say, to Mail or Contacts) and back again. It's gone! - Switch to any other calendar view (e.g. Active Appointments) and you'll see it's still there. It's also still on the iPhone. - On the iPhone, set the event as repeating daily, but starting and ending on the same day (as suggested already on this thread). - Sync again. Ta-da! It's re-appeared! - Remove the recurrence information (on iPhone or Outlook) and sync again. It vanishes again from Day/Week/Month view but is still there in other views and of course, still on the iPhone. Haven't tried downgrading to iTunes 7.5 yet. Has anyone had any success with that? If I find anything else useful I'll post it here. Cheers, Mark On Jul 24, 4:04*pm, "Diane Poremsky {MVP}" wrote: if you need to see it on the Day/Week/Month calendar, snooze instead of dismissing.

on downgrading: reports in the apple forum that it worked, but someone tried
it here and said it didn't help existing appointments. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com. wrote in message ...

outlook appointments not available in certain views
Hi I've had the iphone/outlook problem... I've spent hours on the phone to both microsoft and apple...each say it's the other's problem. I even took the laptop into apple (windows vista oh well) and showed them...they said there might be a fix but it would take ages and to schedule a longer visit. I haven't done it yet but seeing as 3 or so months has passed was wondering if there is an update on this situation.
Strangely enough I just received a .vcs appointment as an attachment in an email. I opened it and accepted it into outlook. It appears in the active appointments view but not in day/week/month views. Message class is ipm.appointment I checked. Scarey that this was nothing to do with iphone. I have always loved and promoted outlook as a time/task tool but now I'm worried that it's so unreliable. Any news would be much appreciated. cheers |

A few questions for you:
What version of Outlook are you using? Is it fully patched? Are any of your views filtered? Would it be possible to send me one of the VCS files you're using? "helen crozier" wrote in message ...
