I'm having a similar problem. I have probably 10 or 20 daily repetitive tasks. Every single one is set to the following on OF desktop:

Start: [a date, usually this is today's date, or an older date if I haven't done it in awhile--i.e., the day after the last time I did it (probably)]
Due: [blank]
Repeat: every 1 day
Repeat From: Completion Date

These all worked like a dream until iPhone OF (and sync) came along. Before iPhone OF (which I love, btw), I'd do as many tasks as possible every day (5-15 or 16), and the next day, the list would have refreshed. No dupes. Nothing missing. Same list of daily todos every day. Perfect. I could do as many or as few as I wanted, and every day I'd get the same list. That's the beauty of the "Repeat from: Completion Date" feature. (Thank you, OG.)

Now, with the iPhone, here's what seems to be happening:

If I'm using OF on my iPhone for my daily todos, what often happens (can't pinpoint why, as of yet) is that when I check off something, it strikes through on the iPhone, and later that day disappears, and likewise on OF Desktop it disappears, too (this is all as it should be). HOWEVER, when the next day comes along, I now have a duplicate of that particular task (which is very much NOT how it should be).

Now I'll give you some examples, showing what's different between each set of dupes--that is, in the Inspector detail for the task(s):

Task#1, Iteration #1

Added: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM
Changed: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM

Task#1, Iteration #2 (dupe)

Added: August 1, 2008 8:45 AM
Changed: August 1, 2008 8:45 AM

Task#2, Iteration #1

Added: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM
Changed: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM

Task#2, Iteration #2 (dupe)

Added: August 1, 2008 8:45 AM
Changed: August 1, 2008 8:45 AM

Task#3, Iteration #1

Added: Jul 31, 2008 8:42 PM
Changed: August 1, 2008 8:46 AM

Task#3, Iteration #2 (dupe)

Added: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM
Changed: August 1, 2008 7:30 AM

The start date is usually the same in the dupe (which is why I've omitted documentation of that field in the above), but not always.

I'll be emailing this detail to support, btw.
