Problem with calendar events getting mysteriously reset

They sometimes get lost as they age, especially if the servers are out of
sync.

So it didn't work? I'm out of ideas.

Thanks for the info. I'll certainly try it. Along with fixing the
color
category change issue, this will also (hopefully) fix the problem with
trying
to "snooze" an event for a specified period of time, but the popping up
again
much sooner?

No, sometimes the posts don't show up right away.

Problems such as this are not uncommon when syncing with a PDA. I
hadn't
heard of it affecting the outlook connector, but I'm not surprised as
color
categories are not supported online, so any changes that cause the
calendar
to be totally refreshed will erase the categories. If they are getting
changed to something different, the local store could be corrupt.

I would try either deleting the pst/ost the connector uses or remove
the
account and add it back to the profile. Close outlook, go to control
panel,
mail and open the profile. Remove the connector account then add it
back.

Are you syncing with a smartphone or PDA?

I have Outlook 2007 as part of Office Enterprise 2007, running on
Windows
7
Professional (although this problem was also present with Vista
Ultimate).
In the calendar I have many events sceduled such as birthdays,
doctor
appointments, etc.

Two problems he first, when an event initially pops up, if I
tell
it
to
"snooze" for a specified amount of time...it doesn't. It will
often
pop
right back up the next time the system checks for new mail, etc.
So
even
if
I tell it to snooze for 8 hours or a day, it might pop back up
after
only
5
or 10 minutes.

Second problem...with each different kind of event, I give it a
specific
color category. However, over time, these color category seem to
often
get
changed without my consent.

Is it possible that these events are somehow being synchronized
with
some
other calendar(s), possibly an old one somewhere, that I am
unaware
of?
If
so, how can I stop this? It's getting REALLY annoying having the
same
event
pop up every 5 or 10 minutes, or have it's color category
changed,
and
not
be
able to do anything about it!
