I'm having some quirky things happen with my calendar sync that don't seem to be covered in any of the threads re: Notes thus far...

I have notes 5.0.11, and my p800 has R2D. In certain situations calendar entries / updates are not making it to the p800 - which has caused me to miss some meetings - which is one of the occurences I got the phone to avoid!

1) When somone else in my organization sends me a calendar invite and I accept on Notes, it gets added to my Notes calendar and syncs to the p800 just fine. Wonderful. If that same person updates or reschedules the meeting, and I accept the change, it registers in my Notes database but NOT in my p800. The p800 does NOT recognize the new time and /or date.

2) If I create a new calendar entry and mark it as an invitation, it creates the entry in Notes, but it never syncs to the p800...

Anyone had these issues? Any ideas?

Just to let you know - I have the same problems and know of no fix. It's a very annoying problem.

I have exactly the same problems ... it seems like a bug within the SE syncronization software (even with the latest version). Moreover for any reason after syncronizing some entries disappeared from both the Notes Calendar and the phone calendar.

However I have noticed that if you select the following options under 'Sync Station Setting' - 'Standard Syncronization' the problems above almost disappears:

'Conflict resolution' : check 'Automatically resolve conflicts - keeps item in computer, override item in phone'

'When item is deleted in phone, also delete item in computer for': leave calendar check unmarked

Good luck, hopefully the next version of the sync software will fix this bug.


P.S.: I have Notes v 5.0.11 too ... are u an IBMer as well?

Anyone know of a way to formally submit a bug notification to SE to correct items like these in the sync software? Is it reasonable to expect they would care or take any action?

I'll pre-empt the response from SE.

Lotus Notes 5.0.11 is not supported by the sync software provided by SE. We only support Lotus Notes V4.6 and V5.0....on Windows 3.1...

Sorry ... had to add the last bit Reduces any potential bugs in the system
