Syncing all day events between Outlook & iTunes

Hi – I know that this topic has been raised previously but I got caught out a couple of weeks ago by this problem.  I had set an all-day event in Outlook for something in Auckland on a Mon which I duly turned up to only to discover that it was Tues not Mon even though it was Mon in my calendar on my iPhone!  I load an all-day event into Outlook for Mon and sync with iTunes and behold – it is in my iPhone calendar on Tues!  I move it back to Mon on my iPhone and sync with Outlook and it has moved to Sun!  Have tested this over and over and it is consistently doing this including vice versa.  No problems if I set an appointment using times so it is only happening with all-day events.  I am using the latest versions of Outlook, IOS and iTunes.  Have also checked daylight saving settings etc. and these are ok.

I have searched the internet and it amazes me that I can find no solution despite seeing a number of sites confirming it is a problem including Apple's!  Tried their support phone line but gave up when they indicated that I would have to pay for help!

Is this a known problem given it is not just me that is having it?  Has anyone found a solution or is this something that is going to just be resolved in a future upgrade?

Would really appreciate any help/ideas on this.

I notice this too – in fact I am in the habbit of setting an "all day" appointment from 12:01am to 11:59pm which gets around it.

 

Like you I have spent quite some time playing around with it only to give up using the method above.

tonymckenna, I've tentatively solved it by changing my PC and iPhone timezones to Eastern Time. 


There will be fall-out from this but I'll just have to weigh up the pros and cons. 

 

All my entries are all-day events so setting the time for each one would be a nuisance.

Google Calendar sync fixed it for me.

 

Strange really, but annoying as I use a great mix of day long and hourly meetings
