FIX: Removed Wunderlist support. Microsoft discontinued support Wunderlist as of March 6th, 2021.

gSyncit v5 was released without support for Wunderlist knowing that Microsoft had already planned and communicated plans to deprecate this service back in April 2017. We restored Wunderlist functionality in gSyncit v5.2.41 based on customer feedback to allowing syncing until the service was disabled. We are now removing this functionality as Microsoft has fully discontinued Wunderlist. 

FIX: Corrects issue where gSyncit settings accessed from the system tray does not reflect the same settings configured through Outlook after installing the gSyncit v5.4.93 update. 

The v5.4.93 update resolved an issue caused by a recent Microsoft Office update. However, this change also affected the logic gSyncit used to read the name of the default Outlook profile to ensure it loads the gSyncit settings associated with the default Outlook profile. 

In late April 2020 Microsoft released a update to Microsoft Office that altered the Outlook profile work flow in the MAPI32.dll Windows library when calling  MAPIInitialize causing it enter a fault state when invoked. This MAPI API call is required before calling any other API calls needed to access Outlook related content. This patch loads the required libraries into the process so that the MAPIInitialize() call runs correctly allowing gSyncit to read the name of the default Outlook profile name. 

The actual C# (.NET) code to work around this issue is shown below....

var programFilesPath = System.Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFilesX86);
LoadLibrary(string.Format(@"{0}\Microsoft Office\root\vfs\ProgramFilesCommonX86\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE16\Mso20win32client.dll", programFilesPath));
LoadLibrary(string.Format(@"{0}\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OutlookServicing.dll", programFilesPath));
MAPIInitialize(IntPtr.Zero);

FIX: Corrects "System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException (0x80004005): External component has thrown an exception." after installing April 2020 Microsoft Outlook/Office updates. The root issue is related to a problem invoking the MAPIInitialize() function on the MSMAPI32 library.

UPDATE: Updated Google libraries/dependencies to latest 2020 v1.45 release. The Google library updates are important as they include the latest changes/updates by Google for interfacing with the Google API's used by gSyncit.

FIX: Corrects issue gSyncit settings dialog did not render correctly when using scaled display settings.

FIX: Corrects issue syncing event availability with Informant Online service.

FIX: Corrects issue gSyncit settings dialog did not render correctly when using scaled display settings.

FIX: Corrects issue setting the last modified date/time for Evernote notes.

FIX: Restores Simplenote sync functionality. Was removed in prior release due to service integration issues.

FIX: Corrects were syncing with CardDav server when the CardDav entry contains a duplicate custom label causing the error "An item with the same key has already been added"

FIX: Corrects issue syncing with CardDav server where if a sync-collection includes a reference to the collection itself then it can cause a 500 Internal Server Error.

FIX: Corrects issue where the sync token used to improve sync efficiency when syncing with a CardDav server was not being used correctly. This fix is highly recommended as it will improve the sync efficiency with a CardDav server.

FIX: Minor fix to correct issue where font formatting not syncing to the Google event when syncing Outlook RTF with Google event HTML formatting.

FIX: Corrects issue where a custom CardDav URI pointing to a secondary address book was placing new items in the root address book.

FIX: Corrects issue where event start time zone is defaulting to the Outlook event end time zone.

REVISION: Allow the font attributes to be set on the Google event when syncing rich text formatting with Google event HTML formatting.

FIX: Corrects issue where syncing Outlook calendars with Google event colors, if the event color uses the same color "id" as the default calendar color then the event color may not sync correctly and shows on the Google calendar without the expected color.

REVISION: Improves sync of Outlook rich text formatting with Google event HTML formatting. In some cases if the rich text formatting uses specific tags or name spaces, when converted to HTML by Outlook, Google is unable to parse the HTML and shows the raw HTML code. Google calendar events support very basic HTML formatting including bold, italics, underline, basic bullet points/numbers lists and links. Complex HTML formatting using styles or more advances HTML is not supported by Google calendar. This discrepancy necessitates the need to strip some of the formatting from the Outlook version of the HTML before syncing it to the Google event.

REVISION: Simperium has discontinue support for third party access to Simplenote. This feature has been disabled in the software until further notice. We strongly encourage syncing Outlook notes with Google Drive "notes" folder using your Google account. 

FIX: Corrects issue where moving completed tasks to deleted items folder could result in the item being deleted permanently.

FIX: Corrects issue where sync logic attempts to sync Outlook recurring tasks with Todoist which are currently not supported due to the significant differences between Outlook and Todoist recurrence patterns.

FIX: Corrects issue where moving events between Google/Outlook calendars fails to delete the original event.

REVISION: Corrects object reference error when syncing CalDav event to Outlook.

REVISION: Corrects object reference error when deleting a CalDav calendar entry that's missing a required URI property.

REVISION: Updated internal links to fieldstonsoftware.com from the application.

REVISION: Updated the sync calendar sync logic with Google calendar and CalDav calendars to correctly sync the iCal UUID between calendar events and set the PidLidGlobalObjectId, PidLidCleanGlobalObjectId, and PR_OWNER_APPT_ID properties on the Outlook event. This fix applies to new and updated meetings after the update is installed.

This revision corrects the case where updating a meeting and sending a update results in original and updated event appearing in the attendee calendar. This revision also corrects being able to tally responses to meetings from either calendar and canceled events being correctly removed from the attendees calendar.

For example, if a meeting event is created in the Outlook calendar, sync to attendees, synced to the Google calendar, moved to a new date/time in the Google calendar, and then sent to the attendees from the Google calendar then the attendee will correctly receive a update to the original event vs. a new event.

Changes based on details available in the Microsoft Appointment and Meeting Object Protocol

FIX: Corrects issue where event may fail to sync from Outlook to Google when using event colors and a category is mapped to the "Default" calendar color.

FIX: Corrects "LIMITS_REACHED_COMMANDS" error when syncing with Todoist. Issue occurs when syncing large batches of changes/updates with Todoist.

FIX: Corrects issue affecting the ability to sync Todoist task comments to a Outlook task.

FIX: Updates the CardDav sync work flow to address issue where contact record may be incorrectly signaled as deleted.

FIX: Tentative patch to address "too many requests" error when syncing with Simplenote. Due to the nature of this issue you may need to suspend syncing for a period of time with Simplenote to allow for the Simplenote "request count" to cool down in order to permit additional requests.

FIX: Corrects CardDav sync issue where not all contacts may sync from the CardDav server. This occurs due to a bug where if the CardDav return returns a 404 status for any requests properties then gSyncit incorrectly considered the contact as deleted and ignored the contact record.

FIX: Updated handling of syncing URL's (e.g. "www.google.com") in the Outlook contact to Google contacts. 

FIX: Corrects calendar/contacts sync error syncing with the iCloud. Apple now requires using the /.well-known/... path to determine the principle Uri vs. the root CalDav/carddavicloud.com URI to determines which iCloud server group the user CalDav information is accessed.

FIX: Corrects issue where the Outlook timezone may be mapped incorrectly to the Google event. This issue is caused by the & character being represented in the timezone as %2A preventing a proper time zone match. This issue appears to be related to a recent Microsoft Outlook update.

UPDATE: Updates Todoist sync to use the latest v8 API

UPDATE: Revision to the collision dialog for events to include the date/time before the subject 

FIX: Corrects issue syncing with Todoist when syncing Outlook categories with Todoist projects where moving a task to a new category fails to move the Todoist task to the correct/corresponding project.

FIX: Corrects issue where Outlook interface may freeze when clicking sync using the evaluation version of gSyncit.

UPDATE: Revision to how gSyncit translates Outlook time zones to Google calendar event time zones. This change addresses cases where the Windows time zone information does not directly match the time zone information used by Outlook causing the Google event to show the wrong time zone.

FIX: Corrects "Parsing Failed" error when syncing with Google Contacts. This error can occur when syncing a Google contact with a anniversary date that does not include the year (e.g. "Jan 23") or the year is set to "0000" (e.g. 1/1/0000). 

Maintenance updates.

NEW: Updated Google tasks sync mapping to allow selecting which item (Outlook or Google) wins when a conflict is encountered instead of defaulting to use the item with the most recent last modified date.

FIX: Corrects issue where events using the Outlook time zone "Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rom, Stockholm, Wien" incorrectly sync to the Google calendar as being in the Casablanca/Morocco timezone.

FIX: Corrects issue where if only the option to sync with Google Keep is enabled then the sync warns that no sync mappings are configured.

FIX: Corrects object reference error when syncing user defined / custom fields with Google contacts.

FIX: Corrects case where gSyncit is unable to sync a recurring event exception based on the error "You changed one of the recurrences of this item, and this instance no longer exists. Close any open items and try again." At a lower level when trying to access the recurrence exception using Exception.AppointmentItem this error is sometimes returned where-as using RecurrencePattern.GetOccurence(date) does not return this error. This appears to be yet another oddity in Outlook's data model. 

UPDATE: Migrated the gSyncit build to use the latest Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 tool sets.

UPDATE: Updated error messages related to loading the .Net Framework runtime to help troubleshoot permission related issues.

UPDATE: Updated the Microsoft.Office.Outlook.Interop assembly reference to latest release. This component is used to interface with the Outlook API.

UPDATE: Added prompt to warn about closing before saving on the gSyncit settings dialog.

UPDATE: Adds option to explicitly allow Outlook to send meeting responses to meetings that are synced from the Google calendar. For example, if the Google event meeting response is marked as not attending/denied then when the change is synced to the Outlook calendar then Outlook can be set to sent a response. By default Outlook will only send responses for meetings marked as accepted/tentative. This option is available on the gSyncit Google Calendar sync mapping / Other tab.

FIX: Corrects issue causing "HYPERLINK" to appear on the contents of a Google event when syncing a rich text formatted description to a Google event description.

UPDATE: Refreshed the Google client libraries to the latest updates.

UPDATE: Updated handling of advanced task prefix mappings where if a category prefix starts with [ < or { then a assumed prefix of ] > } will be applied. This is to address cases where the category name is "[name]", "<name>" or "{name}" and the trailing postfix character should be retained but not included in the name that is mapped to the target field. 

FIX: Corrects error that may occur while detecting Outlook off-line status.

FIX: Corrects issue where syncing event with no end date may appear in Outlook with a preset end date.

UPDATE: Updates gSyncit Google Drive sync Google API project id. This change may require re-authorization to allow gSyncit to access users Google Drive account.

NEW: Added "Support Request" button to main settings dialog
