How can I sync back dates on Outlook Calendar between PDA and PC?

T

tfkirk

I have a personal digital assistant (iPAQ 4150, PDA) and a desktop PC (with
VISTA) which I synchronize with my Outlook info.

My problem is that I cannot sync all of the Outlook Calendar between my
desktop and PDA. The desktop info with back dates more than 2 weeks old does
not sync onto my PDA even though it is on my desktop PC. All future dated
Outlook Calendar info is synchronized without difficulty. Once I set the PC
system clock to 1/2007 and everything synched easily. When the correct time
was reloaded the PDA's back dates were deleted.

My question is: How can I maintain and synchronize my iPAQ 4150 with the
infor from passed dates in my Outlook 2007 Calendar which is on my desktop
PC. I have a need to use passed dates on my PDA as a reference diary.

Tbat would be a setting on your iPAQ and has nothing to do with Outlook. Questions about synching are best posted to microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync.

Syncing has nothing to do with Outlook as Outlook is simply the passive repository for your information. How your synch software behaves is its own problem.

In ActiveSync, click the Options button, select the Calendar, click
Settings, and select the radio button labeled "Synchronize all appontments".
The default is to sync only the past two weeks.

My desk top PC has VISTA. There is no Active Sync in a VISTA environment.
Ergo, your suggestion can't be used. What can be done using the Sync Center
in VISTA?

Did you try posting there anyway? I have seen several posts that deal with vista's sync center.

Yep, I missed that you said Vista. Sorry. I'm not sure. While I have
Vista at home, I don't sync with it because I already sync my iPAQ with to
XP systems (one at work and one at home) and I'm not sure the PDA will allow
synching with a third.
