Duplicate appointments

Hello!!!
I would like to thank FJ for this wonderful sync program. I tried so many different programs and MPE works the best.
I did struggle to get my calendar to work at first (wont sync) then I realized it was because I disabled all the gmail stuff. So after I enabled a calendar I was getting my sync.
My issue:
Everytime I sync my LG Eve with Outlook 2007, the phone will have replicated entries. So if I sync 3 times, I will have the same appointment 3 times!!!
Thank goodness my Outlook 2007 only has one entry.
Is there a feature check mark I am missing some where? I have enabled to sync only changed items so I am lost
Any help would be great!

Please update the client to the current version (go to market), click on "Download entire" in Organizer and then manually delete the duplicates.

Hi FJ,
Hmmm ... I do not think I will spend time to delete 500+ (I synced all future appointments).
Would it be easier to go into my Google account, delete the calendars, create a new one, sync back to phone and then use MPE?

It depends in which calendar the duplicates were created. Are they all in the google-calendar ? You could also do:
- update client
- Download entire
- select in the sync-settings to
Force Outlook->Phone (cause in Outlook there are no duplicates or ?)
- and then sync
but before you do the sync with outlook it would make sense to disable the sync to Outlook and to test if every operation works if you edit your calendar in the interface of UI. I don't want that you have your appoiuntments 4-times on the phone

hahha well before I made my first post, I sync a few times with Outlook -> Phone. Each time I synced, I get duplicate.
Outlook: Perfect (no duplicates).
Phone: Many duplicates (5 now).
Google: Same as phone (but I dont care about this calendar).
BTW I appreciate the help. I know the donation I made today was little but I hope it helps.

was the problem fixed with updating the client - are there still new duplicates on every sync ?
Same problem

Just had the same problem, BIG TIME ....
It MIGHT be because my wifi is a little iffy and sometimes will turn off and then back on after a moment, so would it make sense that if this happened during a calendar sync, it would either restart or otherwise not know what to do, resulting in duplicate entries and/or entries with other entries' times?
I'm, just gonna do everything manually and whatnot, but this makes me nervous. Love the program though, perhaps some method of checking sync'd events and/or resume?

Yes but I also turned off the Google account sync and deleted the calendar in gcal (Outlook stated I had something like 500+ appointments x5 for the duplicates).
Thanks for your help FJ!

Use the USB cable and make your device to never sleep if charging. I would assume if WiFi drops / breaks so does the sync.
Check the settings of MPE to sync both?
Working like a charm for me now!
