Problems with recurrent appointments

I noticed if you have an exception to a recurrent appointment, MPE doesn't sync correctly the exceptions.

For example if you have an appointment that occurs every Tuesday at 1:00. But you decide to change this weeks occurence to 2:00. Outlook will show the change, but MPE will not following a sync.

I'm using Outlook 2003, the latest MPE, and a Sony Ericsson w810i

The phone doesn't allow exeptions so MyPhoneExplorer does not handle it.

thanx FJ for the quick response .. however, it appears my phone does allow these kinds of exceptions. I just tried it using the "Sony Ericsson PC Suite" software and it worked just fine. I would rather use MPE as it has a much nicer UI and does Bluetooth syncing (I've been unable to get the Sony Ericsson PC Suite to sync with Bluetooth) but I'm seeing a couple of issues with MPE at the moment.

Yes. with the PC-Suite it works cause they use another sync-protocol. I'va already tried this

Any plans to support this (exceptions to recurring appoints) in the future?

No - too much work for less sense.

I would like to suggest sort of a workaround.
If a meeting in a series of meetings has been updated, couldn't these changes be added as a separate meeting? Let's say that the meeting is moved in time, then add a new meeting at the new time and do nothing with the recurrent meeting (as is today).
It happens quite a lot that single meetings in a recurrent series are moved or even cancelled.

Thanks a lot for great piece of software!
