problem sending calendar updates from 8525 to outlook 2007

hello group,
I have searched the forums and the wiki, but have found nothing about this. I'm also looking at microsoft's kb, nothing yet.
when I set up a calendar appointment on my 8525 and add an attendee, an email gets sent to that attendee with the appointment via whatever email account you have selected in calendar options.
when I do this, the appointment that the other person receives is set to the time and day I sent it, rather than the time and day of the appointment.
has anyone else seen this?
is there a fix? perhaps the dst patch caused it. this didn't happen with my old harrier.
***update edit-
this only happens with outlook 2007. when I send to outlook 2003sp2 the appointment date and time is correct.
***
I'm still on the old 1.34.502.1 cingular rom, since I couldn't get blackberry connect working with the new att rom.
thanks in advance!

tried this with two different outlook 2007 installations and it is broken on both. can anyone that has access to a pc running outlook 2007 try this out and tell me if it is a problem for them, and what rom version you are using?
thanks!

What version Exchange are you running?
Have you installed that April OL2007 patch I saw mentioned on M$'s KB? Doesn't seem to address your issue but who knows...
I'l test with my Exchange 2003, OL2003 and OL2007 clients and see if I can duplicate your complaint later today.

thanks!
I'm using pop, no exch server. it works if I select the appt and send as an ics, but not when I set up the appointment on the hermes and add attendees so it sends the appt email automatically.
tytn account is pop,
outlook 2003 and 2007 are both pop too. don't have access to an exchange client running 2007, but exchange with outlook 2003 does work, I've tested that.
I haven't loaded the hotfix on the kb, because it does seem unrelated. all updates are applied.
posted the problem on the ms newsgroups for outlook 2007, but no replies yet.
thank you very much for your help!

Sorry but you're on your own. I quit "popping" years ago.
Good luck!

ok,
thanks anyway.
for what it's worth, I don't think the mail service has anything to do with it. either the appt is formed incorrectly on the hermes, or it is interpreted incorrectly by outlook 2007. strangely enough, the same email appt. show up correctly in 2003, so it is something specific to outlook 2007.
thanks again,
wes

Exchange Server Sync

I have been searching the interwebs for a concrete answer on this...
Will the myTouch sync wirelessly with the exchange server? Will the sync include email, calendar, and contacts?
I have heard and read all different answers.
If it can only sync up email, is TouchDown the only software out there that will complete the sync? Is it worth it? Has anyone used this software?
Thanks for a possible new Sapphire buyer.

I have tried the Exchange Server Sync but there are some error. You can check here

I have installed TouchDown and used it for a day. So far so good.

Roadsync is another alternative - currently free as its in beta. Or if you feel adventurous you could flash your phone with the htc branded firmware as it definitely has exchange sync in it.

HTC Firmware
Will this HTC firmware still be Android or is it totally HTC? New to these firmwares.
I believe I was looking at another forum talking about these and it sounded like about a month ago they were having issues with the calendar syncing. Have these been resolved? Can you show me where there may be more information on these HTC firmware?

Syncing Calendar with .ICS Files

Hi all - got my HD2 three days ago and still tweaking bits and bobs as I see fit!
One of the things I haven't been able to work out is whether I can sync the calendar with my personally hosted .ICS calendar files? I host them on a personal FTP for shared use in Lightning/Thunderbird.
Is there any way at all of syncing them with my HD2? Whether it's a bit hacky and goes via Google Calendars or something else I don't really mind, as long as it works remotely.
Thanks in advance .

Argh, dropped off the first page already! Anyone?

i guess the google calendar is way to go. but it would be great if a XDA expert could post an a possible solution

I would like to see either HTC offer something to sync up to Yahoo calendar, or at least a third party app to sync up to Yahoo calendar myself!
Yahoo has now done away with the Yahoo GO! app, oddly enough only months after creating a "new" iphone App. Why does Yahoo always give Windows Mobile the finger?

Hi. I don't have a HD2, but in this period I am evaluating the purchase of a new WM smartphone, and I am searching info about my main requirements. One of them is just the sync with Outlook or (better) with Lighting/Thunderbird. Until now, I found that the best solution seems BirdieSync, http://www.birdiesync.com/features. Unfortunately it is not freeware, but it appears the most suitable for the task. I saw on the site that there is a full-functional demo, maybe you can try it.
Hope this helps.

I use birdiesync, and it does synchronise with Thunderbird's calendar.

Anything to synch to Yahoo Calendar?

Yahoo! Ical Sync
the new yahoo calendar beta has ical sync support, so if you can sync to ical you can sync to yahoo calendar beta....
"Can I sync with Live or Google Calendar?
Last Updated: March 02, 2010
Yes!
When you share your calendar with any user, that user will receive an email that will guide them through subscribing to your calendar.
Toward the bottom of that email, there will be a URL that looks like this:
ht[tp://calendar.yahoo.com/yahoo-id/XXXXXX/CalendarName.ics?id=001.
Anyone using a calendar that supports the iCalendar or .ics formats can use this URL to sync to your Yahoo! Calendar."

html email

hi all,
in my active sync settings there is a setting for html email but it is greyed out. anyone know if its possible to enable? i want to see images in my email. thanks.

Html email is available and works on the HD2; I use it. However it works only if your exchange server is 2007 or later. If it's 2003 or older, html email is not supported over activesync. Could that be your issue?

That's exactly my problem. Thanks for pointing it out. Now I'll have to upgrade exchange server LOL!

[Q] GTab sync with Exchange 2003 cannot sync calendar

Have an issue with my current GTab sync with Exchange 2003
Tried doing this twice already and still no solution yet (i tried searching around but no forums have give me a proper solution as well).
Issue is like this:
1. Setup email, contact and calendar sync with Exchange 2003
2. emails are coming through fine .. no problems here
3. Contacts only 300 ++ contacts came in out of 900++
4. Calendar appointments not synced at all
Anyone encountered this problem?

I just set up my tab from Sprint and it synced fine with my exchange 2003 server.
Maybe reset your device and try again?

Me too. Make sure yiu go into calendar and then tell it how many days you want to sync.

Weird ... Mine just refuse to work... As a workaround ... I'm using touchdown to sync my calendar and contacts....
Very strange...

It's a setting on the Exchange server that's causing it, though I can't recall what it is. Co-worker had the same problem with his Nexus One.

Even though Touchdown costs money, it's a much better solution for Exchange 2003 users IMO.
For me, the ability to have tasks, email and my calendar in one place is worth it. I just moved to the Tab from an iPhone4 and not having to screw with Toodledo sync and a third party task app is a godsend!
The only thing I miss is not having projects, but I'll just use categories for that
Oh, and in case anyone asks, I just used the iPhone as an always connected PDA. I barely used the voice capabilities. That was easy to replace with Skype

I faced the same problem. Calendar doesn't sync with DDJK3 firmware in India.
I flashed XXJM6 Europe firmware from www.samfirmware.com and everything started working fine. Looks like JK series has some issues, JM fixed it looks like
Mail, Calender n contacts all are syncing well.
