Has anyone had any success with syncing a phone and iCal? My Z520a worked perfectly with Tiger, but now, the sync operation creates multiples of every item, only they are time shifted by one minute (i.e. if I have a Monday appointment at noon, when I sync to the phone, iCal stays as it should but I will have a Monday event at 1pm, and a Tuesday event at 1159am. WTF??
By the way, this was done with a clean install and fresh new calendars (no importing old .ics files.)

Correction:

When using newly created calendars, NOTHING happens (no events are copied over, although the sync is supposedly successful), BUT when importing my ics files from 10.4.10, the events are copied and duplicates are created with the strange times...

Is it just me, or does the strange times seem to have something to do with daylight savings time? One of the two events has the time after DST ends as the event time, and the duplicate has a time one minute before it should be... Odd.
