I sync to one .dt calendar and get duplicates.
I have the option set to have the Pilot overwrite the desktop, and have the
remove duplicates option set.....still many duplicates on appear on my
desktop...
I just blew away my calendar and reloaded it from my Pilot. The duplicates
reappeared. I have made the following observations:
1) My duplicates are repeat appointments
2) They are appointments that I deleted on the Pilot
but show up on the desktop
Is there a way to edit the calendar on the Pilot to really eliminate the
supposedly deleted appointments?
Regards,
Mike
