Because i'm on a secured computer at work i bring my ".pst" file back
home so i can sync it to my home computer...therefore having access
to my calendar over the weekend....
problem is when i import the .pst i get tons of duplicates of
events/appointments (even on the first time) in my outlook and it's
tooooo numerous to go and delete every one of them.
Importing is never the way to transfer data between Outlook instances.
I actually tried deleting all the duplicates but when i re-load the
new .pst the next week.... lo and behold.... the SAME DUPLICATES
appear...
why does this happen and how come these duplicates are not shown on
my work computer? (and no, these are not typically "recurring"
events)
If yo open the PST and copy only those items whose modified dates are more
recent that what's already in the existing PST you won't have any
duplicates. See if any of the sync techniques here help:
