Hi Claw,
Try running Detect & Repair feature available under the Help menu in Outlook
to scan the pst file. Additionally, you can also try running the Scanpst
utility to check for any corruption in the PST file. Search for scanpst.exe
on your computer. You might find it under:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033\NT\scanpst.exe
Or
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033\scanpst.exe
Note: C: might need to be replaced with appropriate drive letter.
You will need to run it against the .pst file. Usually the name is
Outlook.pst. If you are unable to locate the path of the .pst file, do the
following:
1. Open Outlook.
2. Click File -> Data File Management
3. This should list all the PST files that are present. Click Open Folder
and you should find the storage path of your *.pst file.
Run the scanpst.exe file on the *.pst file and then connect the PPC and
attempt to synchronize.
