I recently authored a post titled, "Start Date occasionally disappears on recurring tasks". The essence of this post was that from time-to- time a recurring task completed on the iPhone incorrectly ends up with a start date equal to "none".
I decided to create a separate post as I may be closer to figuring out under what circumstances this event occurs. Today, I completed a recurring task on my iPhone that had a start and due date equal to today's date. The task was set to recur 120 days after it is completed. After completing it in the Active Actions view on my iPhone, the task recurred to 6/13/2012 (start and due dates) as expected. I then immediately synced my iPhone with the Cloud, and then synced my desktop with the Cloud. I then viewed the task on my desktop. The Due Date was correct, but the Start Date had been changed to 5/16/1900 (5848 weeks lead time). I then looked at the same task on my iPhone. The Due Date again was correct, but the Start Date was 12/31/1970. So completing the recurring task on the iPhone was handled correctly, but syncing with the Cloud changed the Start Date to really strange dates that were different between the iPhone and the Desktop. I tried to duplicate this with a new recurring task, but the start date was not changed by syncing with the Cloud, so I wasn't able to reproduce the problem. So it doesn't happen every time, but it happens often enough that the start date of a recurring task is changed after syncing with the Cloud.
