Guest obrienkm Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Hi all, Many (or most) of my reminders on my Blackjack II from my calendar occur multiple times, even after I dismiss them. For example, I have an appointment set to remind me 15 minutes before. It will remind me on time, and display the reminder on the phone. I will dismiss, and then a few minutes later the same reminder will sound and pop up. Even if I don't dismiss, I'll get the same reminder again, and it'll show it twice on the phone. Then it'll sometimes remind me AGAIN at the actual appointment time. In some cases, the duplicate reminder will actually occur minutes or even hours AFTER the actual appointment. I can "solve" this problem if I select Menu -> Dismiss All at the reminder screen for the first reminder, but that's sort of annoying to have to do. This problem is particularly annoying if I'm in a meeting, and the reminders are always recurring. Does anyone else have this issue, and more importantly, does anyone have a real solution? I've got Windows Mobile 6 Standard (CE OS 5.2.1620, Build 18125.0.4.2). I'm on AT&T in San Diego, California. Thanks for any help! -Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest john redcorn Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 It's happening to me too. Never hours later but usually a few minutes after I dismiss. Didn't happen until I upgraded to 6.1, but you say you have 6. weird. I don't use activesync, I am connecting to an exchange server via att wireless and it only seems to have this duplicate reminder problem on appointments I created on the phone, doesn't seem like it happens for appointments I or others created or created for me in outlook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest obrienkm Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Anyone else having this problem??? I can't necessarily confirm that it only happens for appointments created on the phone (and not Outlook), but it seems right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest omahawk Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 This is also happening to me. In 6.0 It happened with almost all appointments, it did not matter if the appointment was set with the phone or through Outlook on my laptop. I would have some give the reminder after it was dismissed up to two days later. It happens less often with 6.1 but it still does occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darryl_Gittins Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 On my HTC Diamond Touch running Windows Mobile 6, I receive two reminders for each appointment. That is, a reminder alarm sound, I pull the phone out, unlock it, click the reminder icon, and then dismiss the reminder. Then, about 5 minutes later, the alarm sounds again. (I'm not hitting snooze - I'm hitting dismiss). I have to repeat the procedure for every event. It's a little annoying. Anyone know why this might be happening? Many thanks!!

Guest Nottach Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) do you sync to multiple places? (outlook, dashwire, myphone, etc.) that may cause dupes. Edited June 25, 2009 by Nottach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darryl_Gittins Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 do you sync to multiple places? (outlook, dashwire, myphone, etc.) that may cause dupes. Thanks, but no - I only sync to the one Outlook account. I can't hlp but think that the issue is somehow related to non-sync'd times somewhere - as if the phone is seeing two different time triggers.

Guest Kevlarski Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I get this problem on my HTC Touch Diamond (wm6.1) also. I've read a forum post somewhere stating that in Settings > Sounds and Notifications > Notifications > choose Reminders and untick Repeat. Unfortunately my Repeat option is greyed out so I can't change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darryl_Gittins Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 I get this problem on my HTC Touch Diamond (wm6.1) also. I've read a forum post somewhere stating that in Settings > Sounds and Notifications > Notifications > choose Reminders and untick Repeat. Unfortunately my Repeat option is greyed out so I can't change it. Same problem here and also greyed out. No suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darryl_Gittins Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Same problem here and also greyed out. No suggestions? I was able to fix the greyed out problem and removed the tick from "repeats" but I still get two reminders for every event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
