SYMPTOMS
If the Sync Mode setting in ActiveSync is set to Synchronized Continuously While The Device Is Connected, modifications to an appointment made in Outlook on the desktop computer may not be synchronized with Pocket Outlook on your Pocket PC/Windows Mobile device. Changes made in Pocket Outlook, however, are synchronized successfully with the desktop computer.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur if Outlook is configured to use an off-line (OST) folder as well as to connect to a Microsoft Exchange server to retrieve e-mail. Change notification messages may not be handled as expected when an OST folder is in use.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, disconnect and then reconnect the Pocket PC/Windows Mobile device. This reinitializes the synchronization process; any changes or modifications will be reflected on both the desktop computer and the Pocket PC/Windows Mobile device.
