This is caused by Outlook's ability to set an appointment's recurrence to "every x years". This recurrence setting was added to Outlook beginning with Outlook 2007 SP2 but this recurrence pattern is not supported by Window Mobile's calendar.
Because Outlook 2010 also includes this yearly recurrence option, this bug will continue to be a problem for people who sync their device with multiple computers.
While there is not a fix available yet (other than not upgrading beyond Outlook 2007 SP1), users affected by this bug can try setting an end date on recurring items. The end date should be just a couple of years into the future. Note that this doesn't solve the problem for everyone. Existing events need to be fixed either manually or using VBA. A VBA sample and links to additional VBA samples are at Birthdays recur every 12 Years

In this calendar sync bug, All Day events that recur yearly are changed to recur every 12 years. This bug first appeared with the release of Office 2007 SP2 and affects devices that sync with Outlook 2007 using ActiveSync. It may only affect users who sync their device between two different computers.
The problem is related to Outlook's ability to set an appointment's recurrence to "every N years". This recurrence setting was added to Outlook beginning with Outlook 2007 SP2 but this recurrence pattern is not supported by Window Mobile's calendar.
