Tungsten T5, Macintosh Entourage, Sync birthdays.

How's that for a subject that is search friendly.

Ok, just upgraded from Palm 505 to Tungsten T5 and was overjoyed to see
a birthday field in the address book that added an event to the calendar.

Until I synced it with my Entourage and neither the birthday in the
contact, not the event in the calendar came over.

Is this something wrong with my setup, or with the sync implementation?

Someone mentioned getting Datebook5. Would that solve the issue?

Thanks,
Loren

It's the same for me. Apparently iSync and Entourage are both flawed in
not being able to talk to the Palm for birthdays. I've emailed Apple
many times about it through their iSync feedback page, asking them to
add support. Maybe you could try that so they'll get enough requests to
make it a point of concern.

Haven't used it myself, but I'll look into it.
