I'm a software developer, so I know how frustrating one-off bugs can me, but believe me when I say I don't think I did anything all that weird, and definitely saw an issue, things I know were done were marked undone, and other things were duplicated... (again, my theory is still a server-time issue but I don't know how the synch algorithm works, if that's actually a plausible cause)
I did the Reset and now after some futher un-duping and re-done-ing things seem in order, and I did another synch and it still seemed ok (haven't tried putting in test items). So I'm just gonna chalk it up to a transient glitch and keep synching w/ Toodledo. I do understand the value of the 3rd party synch, but I gotta say it's less important to me now that I've seen how good Apple's synch is if you replace or upgrade the device, whatever disk-image-based (that's a guess) thing they're doing seems to do everything well (except the order of the icons on the home screen :-) On Oct 9, 11:41 am, "Appigo Support" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Sorry for the inconvenience.
