Why can I not have reminders on Calendar remind me of events?

[Guest]

I have all the options to set my reminders on, but my phone never gives me a
reminder. Funny thing is when my phone is synced up to my computer it will
show the reminder on the computer but not on my phone?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Mike

Do you have a program installed set to give you reminders via your phone?

Hi Milly,

Maybe original question was a bit vague....

Some background:

I have Windows Mobile 5.0 on my Cingular 8125 pda phone.

It comes with Outlook and i have my calendar synchronized with my computer.
I have the reminders on my appointments to be set ON in my phone, but when
appointment occurs i never receive a reminder from the phone?

But a funny thing occurred... I created a test appointment (on my phone) to
understand what was going on and it so happened that my phone was synched up
to my computer at the time. The reminder came on my computer but not on my
phone?

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Do you have your phone set to give you reminders? There should be an option
under the Tools menu for your phone.

Yes,

In my settings menu, I have it set to give me an sound notification when a
reminder occurs.

Any other suggestions?
