After Android sync, one recurring event is there twice

Post by poet-man »

As headline says, ONE recurring event is there twice (others are ok).
I cannot see any difference between those two. It's a two-way-sync. On mobile device, everything's ok there, but in WinEPIM (10.1.1) I have a duplicate as to this recurring event, after sync.
When I change something in one event-series (i.e. name of it), this change appears in both events.
When I delete one of those two, both are gone. Restoring the one (only ONE is there in waste), both appear again in calendar.
What can I do, to get rid of that duplicate, leaving one version in calendar?

Thanks

Clearing up Android sync data from File->Database Management sync help. If not, please forward us the log file. Thanks!

It didnot help. I solved this by deleting this double event on WinEPIM side, also deleting the event on Android side, re-creating it in AEPIM and syncing again should have everything smooth again.
However it would be interesting to know WHY. Because it has not been the first time, that this occurs. Just to know for future cases.

To know that for sure, we'd need to get a log file next time it happens.

I really DO try to not duplicate threads. As well in this case.
BUT sometimes it's not really clear, where a problem comes from. Is it WinEPIM or AEPIM.
AND - honestly speaking - it sometimes would help, to get any response at all (see thread about time gap between AEPIM-updates). Nothing against closing a thread, but a message with a bit more of information was a great thing, before closing it
