Calendar events don't sync completely between iOS5 IPhone 4S, IPad and ZIMBRA server

Hi,


I have a very annoying problem with my new IPhone 4S (iOS5) and my IPad 1 (iOS5) on one side and our company's ZIMBRA server on the other side.

All software releases are completely up-to-date. ZIMBRA runs on version 7.1.2.


Since the update to iOS5, not all calendar entries are synched any more. (Yes, I have set "sync all events".) (The sync on my IPad1 running on iOS4 worked like a charm. The problem began exactly after the iOS5 upgrade.)


"Not all" means, that e.g. today I have 5 appointments in my calendar on the ZIMBRA server, all in the same calendar ("calendar"). Currently 4 of these 5 appointments are synced to my IPhone and IPad, one appointment (between the others) is not synched on my IPhone... (Interesting: this event is synched to my IPad currently, but other appointments are missing there, too).


I tried to solve the problem with the following actions:

1. Deleted the configuration several times and set up new on IPhone/IPad.

2. Tried the Exchange protocol and iCal protocol.

3. Disabled E-Mail sync to reduce data traffic.

4. Disabled iCloud completely (except the device localization)


Nothing helped so far.


This means, that I cannot trust the calendars on my IPhone 4S and on my IPad 1 any more, which is not acceptable.


Any help is appreciated!

iPhone 4S, iOS 5

Tried a "Reset to factory defaults" on my IPhone 4s yesterday including reinstallation of iOS 5.0.1. No success...


I'm short before throwing this Apple stuff as far as I can... (I bought Apple products to get working software, which was true with MacOS 10.6 and iOS 4, but it changed for me with Lion and iOS 5... (Another instability: In iOS 5, my Safari browser on my IPad 1 crashes quite often...)
