Folder Permissions to support Reminders

[alanb]

Where do I change folder permissions in Microsoft Outlook 2007 to support
reminders?

I am getting the message that a reminder will not be set as this folder does
not support reminders. This is happening when I select a Contact and copy it
to my Calendar as an appointment. When I select the reminder period for the
Calendar item, the message appears when I try to save the Calendar item, "The
reminder for ________ will not appear because the item is in a folder that
does not support reminders. Is this OK?".

I am assuming the folder permissions have somehow gotten changed as I used
to be able to do this.

A similar message appears if I try to copy an Email from my InBox to my
Tasks folder, or to copy an email from my InBox to my Calendar.

Reminders only fire from default folders - it has nothing to do with
permissions. Go to folder list (ctrl+6) and see how many calendars are in
your profile. Make sure you are using the default one.

Under "My Calendars" I have the default Calendar as checked. It is the only
one checked. I also have an Archive Calendar but it is not checked when I am
trying set a reminder.

well as emails copied Calendar, and Contacts copied to Calendar.
