Intellisync to Groupwise synchronization at my current job is a total nightmare. I tend to use the palm at off site meetings all the time and to make changes on the fly while out of the office. The synchronization is more for my secretary than for me, so she knows where I am and can let folks know when I am available. Intellisync does not allow for a complete override of handheld over PC or vice versa. It wants to be able to synchronize both and the verification is an all or nothing thing. You cannot go in and accept some, but not all of the conflicts. Also, it wants to put items back into my palm, that I have taken out as repeating items. It is a nightmare that I cannot live with. I thought I was crazy, because others do not have this problem, but other folks at my company tend to use primarily the PC and rarely make the kind of changes in the handheld that I do. ( I use for to do lists, notes, memos, etc in addition to self scheduling)The IS folks have worked on it with me and agree that it is quirky and not something that I am doing wrong (oh how I hoped it was something I could learn to do differently)
I no longer use Intellisync to sync to Groupwise. I sync to Palm desktop using the palm hotsync and my secretary uses that to know where I am. We are both much happier, though other Groupwise users hate it because they cannot look at my calendar.
I'd give anything to have this work properly and hoped it was simply something I was doing wrong, but I am sick of the manual labor it takes to go through a year of calendar to remove individual items that groupwise keeps putting back into my palm out in the future when I have removed it from the palm
