Windows Mobile 6, sync tasks over the air...

If you use your webmail server address for activesync (on a Windows Mobile 6 phone), it won't sync tasks.

You can use the 'proper' server address, which will - but, this means (at least I) need to set up the alternative private APN to connect to it. Since my current device is not 3G, it'll end up swapping APNs all the time, which is a pain (webmail can use the open internet connection).

Alternatively, get tasks synced via the PC / cable...

Outlook calendar events not syncing?

Some recurrent events don't sync to the mobile.

Check the recurrence on them; the default is to have 'no end date', which basically means it repeats for 100 years (until 2100). And it won't sync.

Add an end date, or a number of repeats, then it will sync ok.
