Date bug:
When viewing tasks in MPE Tasks App on Android phone Start and Due dates are always one day early. Example: I've created a task with the Due date of Nov 12 (11/12/2011). On the task screen it shows as 11/11/2011. Interestingly enough if I touch the field a new pop-up screen comes up showing Nov 12, 2011, which is correct. I'm in PST (GMT-8).

Priority bug:
Tasks show "Low" priority for "Normal" priority tasks in Outlook 2010. Changing priority to "Low" in Outlook makes it "Normal" in MPE Tasks! "High" priority works correctly.

Thanks.

Which Client-Version you are using ?

I have exactly the same problem. I am using version 1.8.2 and client 1.0.14.

Here is more detailed information. If I click the start and/or stop date, the CORRECT date appears in the setting screen. If I then click SET, the task shows the correct date and continues to show the correct date.

If I re-synchronize with the incorrect date showing, the re-synchronization does NOT change either Outlook or the phone. The phone continues to show the correct date. If I click and correct the incorrect phone date and then re-synchronize, Outlook does not change and the phone continues to show the correct date.

These facts lead me to believe that the incorrect date is a DISPLAY problem in the client and that the correct information is, in fact, being synced.

On the other hand, the priority bug seems to be a real synchronization bug. A task added in Outlook with a Normal priority shows up in the phone as a Low priority. If the Low priority in the phone is changed to Normal and re-synchronized, it shows up as Low in Outlook.

Is there a fix to this? I am having the exact same problem and it is very confusing, not to mention annoying!! Please help!

Thanks for creating this nice app. I just discovered and downloaded it.

I have the same problem. Please fix this. Thank you!

Its already fixed in the current beta: ww.fjsoft.at/mpeclient.apk

Thank you for fixing the task date issue....I love this app!

Thank you for fixing this issue! This is now a great app!!

I installed a new client using the link provided by FJ, but I still have the same problem with task dates. For tasks that already existed when I installed MPE, the due date is off by one day. When I look at the task, it says today, but when I click to change the date, the calendar that comes up shows yesterday, and the task sorts that way. I just synced with Outlook, and the tasks in Outlook look fine. Is it a time zone issue?

My new tasks don't have this problem.

New tasks I create in MPE don't have the problem, but new tasks I create in Outlook do have the problem.

Sorry for so many incomplete posts. I have a Samsung SCH-1200 Android 4.0.4.

If in MPE, I set the due date to none, save, then set the due date to a value, the date shows and sorts correctly. If I set a due date to none in Outlook, sync, then set the due date to a value in Outlook and sync again, the date still does not show or sort correctly. Further, if a due date works correctly in MPE, then I change the date in Outlook and sync, the due date in MPE again does not show or sort correctly. This is a great program, but this issue has me stymied. Thanks if you can help.

Disable the new Outlook interface and try again:
- Start-Run-%appdata%\MyPhoneExplorer\general.ini-OK
- a textfile should open, add a new line directly below [Main]: UseOutlookObjectModel=1
- save the file
- do the sync
