I will try the sync on a brand new independent tasklist. But Steve - your idea is likely my problem. The volume of interaction I do, not to mention rearranging things, makes it very likely that I have done just what you described. The tricky part will be finding where it happened. Fortunately, I think I could also address it by just starting from scratch on my phone and re-syncing to download the whole thing over again.
