I too was having this issue and Apple support very friendly but no help. As usual with Outlook, whenever I setup new e-mail accounts or add any new hardware, I always seem to have to restart my machine to get it to work. So I did 3 things:

1) Unplugged the device and USB plug
2) Powered down the iPhone and also did a reset on the iPhone
3) Restared my computer

One my PC restarted I reconnected the iPhone. Then it will ask if you want to restore from backup and I said "yes". At that point it started syncing everything and wha-la, it is there! At least contacts and calendar. Now off to figure out my mail issues...

So I was unable to get my contacts or calendar to sync with outlook 2003 so there were 2 things that needed to be done.
1.) Within outlook, click help>check for updates

After you ensure you have the latest updates, try and and sync again. If this doesn't work, go to step 2.

2.) Within outlook, click help>detect and repair

**Note, make sure you have backed up all your contacts and calender.

Once this is complete, I got the sync to work no problem!

Hope this helps!

Well it didn't do it for me. I have done everything and it doesn't sync with Outlook 2003. Any other ideas?

I am able to sync with Outlook 2002 with onlyone problem-- it doesn't sync any of my recurring events that were created on the pc. I tried recreating them from scratch, and setting an end date but no luck. Anybody else having this issue?

At last! Go to Outook. On menu, go to Tools/Options. Pick the Other tab, then Advanced Options. Look for COM Add-Ins and select the two Itunes choices.

Voila!

You are the man!!!

It worked perfect. After many hours with the iPhone people and Outlook people you saved the day. Someone needs to tell Apple. They are desperately trying to solve this problem.

Thank you!
