Calendar – Outlook does not sync with iPhone / iTunes

I have had Microsoft Office 2003 working with iTunes and my iPhone 4 to sync my calendar and contacts for some time, and everything worked perfectly up to the other day. Recently I upgraded from Office 2003 to Office 2010, and now the calendar will not sync. Contacts seems to sync ok, but not the calendar.

I have recently gone through several iterations of upgrades for iTunes, iPhone, and other MS patches and updates. Nothing I do changes to way that Outlook ignores the iTunes sync.

Everything worked fine until the upgrade to Office 2010. I have cahnged all of the settings in both iTunes and Outlook and on the phone itself. There does not seem to be any way to make it work.

Is there any way to fix this?

iPhone 4, Windows 7, Laptop Computer, Lenovo T410

I looked at the article you referenced, however it appears that the focus is to get Google calndar and Outlook to work together. I do not use Google calendar.

The only real change to the Microsoft side appears to be the change of the version in the Outlook executable file.

Is this all it takes to get MS Office 2010 to sync with iTunes?

Ok, now I am really baffled. I have uninstalled both iTunes and Office 2010, deleted the file in program files, I gave up on Office 2010 and installed Office 2007, and iTunes 10.6. I have tried to re-sync the calendar, but it just does not work. I have incremantally updated Office to SP3, iTunes and the iPhone software, re-syncing each iteration.

No luck.

There has to be some way to fix this. Any ideas?
