Appointments appear in List View but not in Day/Week/Month View

I run Outlook 2003 SP3, Windows XP with iPhone 2.0. My partner is running
iPhone 2.0, and I don't know what version of Outlook or Windows he's using.

If it helps, Nikki, there are at least two long discussion threads on the
Apple support website. Most, if not all, people are reporting the problem
after upgrading to 2.0 software for the iPhone/iPod touch. The most
common
reported cause has been recurring appointments - birthdays, anniversaries,
weekly meetings.

There's been lots of work-arounds suggested, but not a definitive fix.

I decided to delete all my recurring appointments in Outlook. All my
solitary appointments showed up. But I'm not going to continue to sync my
iPhone with my work/Outlook computer. It seems to be causing more
problems
than its worth.

Oddly, my partner who also has an iPhone syncs with his work comuter using
Exchange Server/ActiveSync. He reports having no problems, but his work
computer is the only one he syncs with for contacts, calendars, and email.

I do not have an answer but I am going to do a bit of research and
see if I can turn something up.

As a quick update, if I export one of the vanishing appointments
as
an
iCalendar file (File Save As), then delete it from the
calendar's
list
view, then re-import it by double-clicking the saved file, it
fixes
the
problem for that appointment.

Obviously, this is really tedious and requires that I first find
each
of
the
vanishing appointments and export/import them one by one, but at
least
it's a
workaround.

Does that give anyone any additional clues?

A handful of appointments don't appear in the "normal"

view
of the calendar. But if I change to List View, they're there
(View
Current
View All Appointments).

If I edit the appointment slightly (such as adding a note or
changing
the
category flag), the appointment will appear in "normal"
day/week/month
view,
but only temporarily. If I scroll ahead to the next month and
then
scroll
back, the appointment's gone again.

I can't find any way to make these mystery appointments "stick."

I have no filtering on. I'm using standard Office views, nothing
custom.
I
have only one calendar named "Calendar" in my Personal Folders,
plus
the
Shared Calendar. Any ideas?- Hide quoted text -

I am also having the same probem. Using Outlook 2007, downloaded the
iphone 2.0 upgrade and began to experience this phenomenon. Things
were fine prior to the upgrade, using itunes and Outlook 2007. Have
also downloaded the latest version of itunes. There seems to be a
connection.

For the problem we had, we used the 935411 post SP3 hotfix.

Having said this, there is nothing (more than a hunch) to assume
that this may help you for the synch problem you are experiencing.

i am also having the same problem with Outlook 2007 and the iPhone 2.0. i am
having the problem with both recurring and non-recurring appointments. the
cleanviews solution did not work, nor did resetting the view within Outlook.

thank you for your help.

try this: Open the event on the iPhone and change it to recurring daily then
end the recurrence on the date of the event before syncing.

Try opening the event on the iPhone and change it to recurring daily then
end the recurrence on the date of the event before syncing.
(suggested by the Apple forum)

We are looking into it from an Outlook point of view, however it appears
to be an Apple issue.

ok, that seems to work, but it is an extra step that shouldn't have to be
taken. is there a more precise solution to this problem? that is, why would
the appointments show up in one view but not another?

thank you.

It appears as though if I remove everything in the calendar older the 30 days
prior to the first iphone-created appointment all of my iphone appointments
appear. At this point, even if I create a new outlook appointment (through
outlook) prior to this 30 day period, the iphone-created appointments just
vanish from Day/Week/Month views. Really weird!

Hope this could be another piece in the puzzle...

Do you have it set to keep the past 30 days? it might be something with it
that is messed up in the sync.

My very first sync I did have the 30 day option selected (it's the default
setting. But now I do not use the 30 setting.) All of the iPhone-created
appointments I have now were synced not using the 30 day setting.
