Did you set up your preferences?

Yes, this is the error message:

It sort of looks like iSync is having a bad hair day ... so have you restarted your computer since this error happened? Have you tried resetting iSync?

There is a post somewhere, I think it may be in the stickies, where someone at OF gave a process of shutting down the syncing engine, making some change, and starting it up again. I actually used this once when syncing to iCal no longer worked and that fixed it. Can't find that post now, but I haven't looked hard.

I too am having this problem (see quote below).

I've posted a support query and am waiting for a reply. Has anybody else had it and found a solution? I've followed the advice about using the Terminal and resetting iSync sync history (as listed in the sticky), but none of these fix the problem. I've already wasted a lot of time and my tasks are all over the place. Help!
