Reminders Not at Correct Time

[pccoyle]

iPAQ 4170 Pocket PC. Recurring task reminders appear at the correct time, as set up in Outlook. Non recurring tasks pop up reminders several hours ahead of the time that has been specified in Outlook. When I edit the task on the Pocket PC, all it says is remind me, it does not appear to have picked up the reminder time from Outlook. Is this normal? I cannot find any info on this at he moment. <img src=/S/cheers.gif border=0 alt=cheers width=30 height=16> <img src=/S/flags/NewZealand.gif border=0 alt=NewZealand width=30 height=18>

There has been some discussion on other fora regarding an issue with WM2003 which your Ipaq has. It may be this issue that is affecting you. The following links (sorry I do'nt know how to activate them) are from the Pocket Informant forum (incidentally if you want your PPC to work for you, do try Pocket Informant; it's quite literally brilliant)

I haven't experienced the problem myself. I use spb's Pocket Plus for alarms as it produces a loud, repeating alarm instead of that weedy bleep thats so easy to miss.
