No Reminder Alarm in Outlook 2007

[Guest]

For some reason, my reminder alarm does not display when I have a calendar
entry for that date & time. In my appointment, it has the Reminder turned
on, but no reminder. Is this a bug in Outlook 2007, or is there a setting I
missed to turn it back on??

 

[Roady [MVP]]

Start Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch;
Start-> Run; outlook.exe /cleanreminders

This did not work for me. My calendar reminders simply don't pop up. Any
other suggestions?

Is this the default calendar or a sub-folder calendar?

actually - it says that my calendar is located in personal folders. I am
99.9% sure it's in the outlook.pst file.

Ben,....can I pick up on the prior question,...since I was just searching
this thread and I'm having the exact same issue. I have a home machine. And
I should add that I also use a separate CRM software called Maximizer that
piggybacks off of Outlook and syncs with it. I run both programs,...Outlook
mainly for calendar and email,....but my alarms do not work in Outlook, so I
have to set them in Maximizer so I at least have them going off.

I've followed this thread and done what you said to do. So how do I get
them working,....they don't work in tasks, calendar or otherwise

O.K. and that's your default information store? Do you have an Exchange
Server or is this just a home machine?
