Mobile Me and Entourage sync issues

I'm getting lots of duplicates in contacts and calendar due to a sync issue with Entourage to iCal to Mobile Me.

Entourage synchronizes with iCal and Address Book okay. iCal and AB then sync to Mobile Me. Apparently something small in the record changes which on the way back to Entourage creates duplicates of many of the records.

Please help.

Yes indeed. It is probably (and by far) the number 1 issue reported in
this group.

Entourage synchronizes with iCal and Address Book okay. iCal and AB then
sync to Mobile Me. Apparently something small in the record changes
which on the way back to Entourage creates duplicates of many of the

Synchronization through SyncService is the source of many problems. You
can minimize the pain by making sure everything is absolutely up to date
(system and Office) and by avoiding all-day events if you can,.
