Check the Apple forums - it is not an Outlook issue.

Try this: open the event on the iPhone and change it to recurring daily then
end the recurrence on the date of the event before syncing.

Thanks Diane.
I did as you suggested and recurring events synced correctly whether they
lasted two days or seven. Events recorded on each day they were scheduled.
I then tried a single event again and it still failed to synchronise.
Does the above information point towards a futher solution?
Thanks again for your helpp
jsflyfisher.

I just spent about 3 hours on the phone with Apple and had the same problem
escalated to Tier 2......I finally had to hang up a do some work, so they
never got back to me....they appear not to be aware of the problem - or did
not admit to it..

thanks to all for the work around....i will give it a try...and I will keep
after Apple till they get a fix out..

Oh, they know about it - they've had plenty of calls about it. Either the
guy you spoke with was clueless or he's trained not to admit it’s a known
issue.

Shad exactly the same problem. I spent 2-3 hours on the phone with Apple
yesterday. I ended up creating a secondary calendar (yes re-entering every
single item) and use ITunes to sync with the new calendar only! It works
very well. Only outstanding issue is that the secondary calendar is in a
sub-folder of "Calendar" and does not appear on the Outllook Today screen
when you open Outlook. I have to click on the secondary calendar for it to
appear as a 'day' calendar only. It will not load (as far as I know) to the
OUtlook Today screen. If anyone has a solution to this - that would be
great. But iPhone is now syncing perfectly!
