I have had this happen with the Windows IDE (2007r1), with classes that I use in different projects. I made changes to these classes in one project on my Mac at home. I brought the files to work, where I use them in a different project, also as external items. I replace the files on my Windows machine at work with the updated files I brought from home. After opening the project, everything seemed to work fine. I made some more changes to the external classes and saved the project, when I noticed that the file date on the external items didn't change. They were not saved. After closing the project and reopening it, the changes I just made were gone. Even after reopening the project, changes to the external classes still did not get saved. The only way I was able to make the IDE save the external items was to remove them from the project and re-add them. After that, the external items were saved as expected.
The status on this issue says "fixed/implemented". This should probably be re-opened.
