Synchronizing repeating meetings with Nokia E7

It seems to me that either Memotoo or Nokia isn't getting things quite right when it comes to synchronising repeating meetings.
Say, you have a fixed appointment every monday at 4-5 PM and you put it into your Memotoo calendar as a repeating meeting. Then, for seome reason your appointment does not take place next week. So you put an exception in place. Memotoo understands this exception and does not show your appointment next week. But when you synchronize your calendar with a Nokia E7, your next weeks appointment is there, wrongly in place.

The you delete it manually from the E7. And the next time you synchronize, it's there again. Once in a while this would not be so annoying but when your schedule is subject to constant changes, this becomes a major issue.

Does anyone else know this odd behaviour?

I will log the synchronization to see what is wrong... Tell me when you have done this.

I created a repeating meeting "test" on thursdays 12am and cancelled it on oct. 13th & 20th. With first synchronizing everything went well. But then I added a location to the meeting ("Timbuktu") and synchronized again. That's when the cancelled appointment appeared on my E7 again (funnily, it appeared on 20th but not on 13th) So adding location might get things going weird. Does it ring-a-bell?

Sam Translate this message to:	Posted 2011-10-05 - 10:30 Subject: Re: Re: Synchronizing repeating meetings with Nokia E7 Right. I have now tested the same procedure in multiple ways and it really seems to be working the way it should. Plus that I now have my existing real appointments synchronized to my E7 correctly. THANK YOU! Really appreciate this fix and I'm also happy to tell my friends about your prompt service to your subscribing customers.

But I'm afraid the same thing came back. Exeptions in recurring events get ignored again on synchronization. I'm now using Exchange ActiveSync to keep my E7 up to date. (it seems to work otherwise reliably). Do you think you could check this issue again? Thanks in advance!
