Problems synchronizing task dates between WM6.1 phone and MS Exchange 2007
If I change several task due dates at once (either sync set to 'As items appear' or as a sync after fixed period) then all the later tasks are changed incorrectly to the due date of the first task and their due dates are lost. If I sync my Pro 2 with MS Exchange2003 then everything seems fine. If I do the same with MS My Phone it's fine. All contacts, other fields in tasks (except start date), contacts etc all sync flawlessly with all three options. I have tried hard resets, deleting the account and re-initialising and still MS Ex2007 won't work... is there a fix? Any help appreciated... Cheers.

thats odd. Please update exchange to the latest sp and roll up. does the issue happen only on non windows phones? If it does, make sure that "Allow non-provisionable devices" is selected under activesync policies.na

My Exchange 2007 service is provided by an external company who assured me that they had patched Ex 2007 with the latest patches including SP1. The people I spoke to on theIr help desk were not aware that this was an issue with other phones but I don't know about the information available to their tech services department. I have read other links saying other WM6.1 phones have had issues (though some not the same) synching with Ex 2007 and also noticed that Task synching was only added to Ex2007 in SP1... I don't know if the source of the error is Ex 2007 coding, implementation by my service provider or the ROM code on my WM 6.1 phone. No official response from Microsoft rep even though lots have people have viewed the threads is disappointing though as they wrote the code for WM 6.1 and for Ex 2007. SO IF YOU'RE OUT THERE MICROSOFT REPS... PLEASE HELP!

Here's the full story and results so far...1) WM6.0 and 6.1 phones both work with Ex20032) WM6.0 and 6.1 phones BOTH fail to sync task dates correctly on Exchange 2007 ( I have tried this with 2 phones AND 2 DIFFERENT Ex2007 providers therefore it seems NOT to be either the phones or the way the providers have set up EX2007).3) WM6.1 works with MS MyPhone beta4) WM6.0 and WM6.1 both work with EX2007 ONLYif each task is synchronised separately between each and every change (Setting phone activesync to 'as items arrive' means waiting for several minutes to ensure previous task has finished synching, and synching after fixed period also causes the same problem).I'm led to the conclusion that there is either a problem with WM6.x or Exchange 2007 programming and it seems more likely to be Ex2007 as MS MyPhone beta works fine.So come on MS GIVE US A PATCH PLEASE...
