RE: PPC sync & exchange only going one way



Hi Branford,

Thank you for your update.

To narrow down this issue, please help me re-confirm the following
information:

1. Open the Outlook, click Go -> Calendar, in the left panel, what
Calendar is enabled? Did you create an appointment in the Calendar in the
Exchange Mailbox - Current user account?

2. Open the Outlook, click Tools -> E-mail Accounts -> View or change
existing e-mail accounts -> Next, did you configure the Mailbox - Current
user account for delivering new email location?

3. Please perform the following test to check if the issue can be
resolved.

Test 1: Safe Mode
==============
Safe Mode will disable all add-ins and extensions that will not start, as
well as all corrupted resources, files, registries and templates.
1. Close Outlook by turn off the Outlook process using Task manager.
2. Click Start-->Run, type "Outlook /Safe" (Quotation marks are not
included and there is a space between Outlook and /safe) and press Enter.
Let me know if the issue persists in the Outlook Safe Mode.
If Safe Mode resolves the problem, please disable the Add-ins by the
following steps:
1. Click Tools, click Options, click Other tab.
2. Click Advanced options button, click COM add-ins, uncheck all the
available options.
3. Test the issue again.

Test 2: Create a new profile
=====================
Please refer to the following article to create a new email profile. Please
start in the new profile and provide me with the result.
How to create a new e-mail profile in Outlook 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=829918

Test 3: Clean Cache
=================
If the problem still occurs, it is probable that the Outlook cache files
are corrupted. Let's perform the following steps to solve the problem.
1. Perform a search on your computer to find the following files:
- extend.dat
- outcmd.dat
- frmcache.dat
- views.dat
2. Rename these files to .old extension if you can find them.

I appreciate your time and cooperation. If anything is unclear, please feel
free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,
