Why won't todo's sync with iCal todo's
How do i sync my todo list with the one in my ical. Currenly they show up as items on the calendar but not as actual todo list items. This way it would show as a todo list on my iphone as well?
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Currently, Sandy's iCalendar feed (http://iwantsandy.com/xxx/list.ics) filters out all todo items that don't have a date. So, because the feed doesn't contain any todo items, it currently isn't possible to use the iCalendar feed to sync your todo list.
As far as I understand it, there are two types of iCalendar todo items, those that occur on a specific date and those that don't have a specific date. These later ones are filtered out because Microsoft Outlook 2003 can't handle them. Sandy only has one iCalendar feed (so far), and that feed has to work for all the calendar applications. (Outlook 2003, Windows Calendar 2007, Apple iCal, Google Calendar, 30boxes, etc.)
There are a couple future options that have been discussed. 1) Sandy could add an option setting that would allow a user to add todo items to their iCalendar feed (but the downside is the user wouldn't be able to subscribe to the feed with Outlook 2003), or 2) Sandy could have multiple iCalendar feeds. People would have to be careful to subscribe to the right feed with the right application. or 3) Maybe it is possible to get todo events to play nice with Outlook 2003 and they just haven't figured it out yet.
