Calendar & Reminder Alert.
Is there anyway the meeting notificatoin recived plays another alert music for when the meeting reminder comes up?
Hi, the only one I've come across is fortunately a great app, designed well with tons of common sense functionality lacking in the pathetic iOS calendar. Unfortunately it is $3, of the 200 apps I own, only 3 of them aren't free, and the $3 is more than worth it since it is critical functionality as well as a great app design.
It is called CalAlarm (Calendar Alarm) by DevArt in the app store. It supports syncing with multiple calendars, like from Google, Exchange, Outlook, 'internet' calendars like US holidays - actually the synching is through the iOS iCalendar, but then in CalAlarm you can exclude specific calendars if desired.
In addition to true repeat alarm until acknowledged (Every minute - developers say Apple iOS prevents user defined like repeat every 5 minutes), the alarms have Snoozes once you acknowledge that include snoozes of 1-3-5-10-15-20-30-45-60-90 minutes and 2h-3h-4h hours not to mention user custom snoozes like whatever you want, any minutes from 1-15 then 5 minutes increments out to hours and days for the snooze, for instance 12 minutes or 1 day 3 hours and 25 minutes snooze just to illustrate functionality, if you mind works that way...
Alert settings prior to event time are similar and can be customized as described for Snoozes, and you can set alarms for as many as 10 alarms prior to event (Although I believe I saw that Exchange for instance has its own limit of 2 possibly, so limitations may come from type of calendar syncing with) - like 1 day, 12 hours, 6 hours, 45min, 30min, 15 min, custom 12 minutes, 5 minutes, time of event. Yes, all separate from the Snooze function while acknowledging the alarm.
Check it out in the app store and their web site. Don't work for them, don't know them, blah blah blah. Enjoy!

Calendar Reminder Alert Emails Not Received
1) I set a calendar, with email reminder alerts set to be sent at various times.
2) At the times the emails are supposed to be sent, I receive an reminder message on the my iMac and my iPhone.
3) The email reminder alerts are sent at some point after they are scheduled to be sent.
4) The email reindeer alerts are never received, but can be found in the Sent mailbox.
About two years ago, I would receive every email alert on time. Since then, the problem has become progressively worse.
Any ideas how I can get this to work properly again?
Thanks.
TedHave you been into "Reminders" and deleted it ?

Additional reminder/ alert app
I use my iphone calendar which came with the phone and an app called week cal which integrates perfectly with the calendar. They both integrate with outlook and I find this system works quite well for me. The week cal offers me a layout I find easier to follow than the standard calendar (week to view, colour coding etc). The problem is that I would like to have the ability to set alerts for more than 2 days prior.
I have reports due once a month and i often need to take more than 2 days to do them. I would like to be able to set the alert 3 or 4 days ahead to give me time to follow up on information I need to collect to get the report done. Even better would be to be able to set the reminder/alert for 3 - 4 working days prior to the due date.The extra alert function would need to integrate withmy iphone calendar, week cal and outlook.
I know I could just put in a seperate entry but I want to avoid having to do the extra work and then having to cancel it when that particular report is not required any more.
Thanks for your help in advance.Looking at previous discussion, no option exists. To make a suggestion to Apple:

Apple calendar reminder is really poor
Apple calendar reminder is really poor, it makes a beep ones and then its gone... pleeeease apple, include the option that the user will be reminded until canceling the reminder. I have never forgot so much things as when I bought the Iphone..
And on the locked screen I would like to have all my calendar meetings for the complete day.
now it only shows the current calendar meeting that just happends, and only for a short time... then it goes away.
When I put something in my Calendar then I want to have this as a "to do" list for the day..
Pleeease Apple, I like your phone a lot, but Pleeeeeease lets help out and make the calendar usefull.
I am used to have Nokia, and there it was good. And all my friends have the same opinion.
Lets bring Iphone to the leading position in the market!
Kind Regards FredrikMany thanks for your reply :-))
Calendar alarm tone can be configured
Settings > Sounds > Calendar Alerts
-yep, this is not the big problem
You can set the alarm before the event twice.
-how? :-)
Use Reminder app for your To-Do list.
-Does Reminder app sync with the Calendar? I add most of the reminders in outlook on the computer..
There are tons of Calendar apps in the App Store which might suit your particular needs.
-found no one that works...
The iPhone is already leading in the smart phone market (in revenue)
-Nop.. most other smart phones has this functions... only apple is 7 years behind... (I had it perfect on my nokia)
By the way, there's no apple here, just us users.
-sad.... -
IPhone 5, iCloud calendar reminder issue
When I use the iCloud calendar on my iPhone 5 and make an event with a reminder set to "on time of event", it will sometimes just beep and flash a notice on lock screen for a few seconds and then the notice disappear from lockscreen.
Sometimes though, everything works as it should and the notice is still there on lockscreen till I unlock the screen (or the event is over).
All settings in notice center and mail/calendar is correct.
When I use google calendar it always works!
The problem was there from iOS 6.0 and is still there after update to 6.1
I have been in contact with apple support who couldn't find any help at the moment.
More people seem to have this according to this site: http://forums.imore.com/ios-6/244349-ios-6-calendar-reminder-issues.htmlUpdate: The problem occurs when I have connected my iCloud acount with calendar enabled on my iMac.
It's like the iPhone 5 thinks I have seen the notice on my iMac and therefore removes it from the phone.
This happens even if my iMac is locked/lockscreen. -
I love the feature in Outlook that lets me flag a message for follow-up and automatically adds a default reminder at the end of the day. Is this something I can configure my Blackberry 9900 to do (running 7.1)?
As far as I can tell, when I flag something for follow-up, it adds a flag but does NOT add any reminder alerts. If I want to do that, I then need to manually add the reminder and set it (which is a little cumbersome).I guess timed message is on the wish list
However in all my forms I use following scenario to validate all data entry at one time and then submit...
I use regular button and add code in Click event
JS example.....
var errorFlag = 0;
var errorMsg = "";
if (validation expression 1) {
//true/pass
//no need to change following values
errorFlag = errorFlag;
errorMsg = errorMsg;
}else {
//false/fail
//set the flag and message accordingly
errorFlag = errorFlag + 1;
errorMsg = errorMsg + "validation message1" + "\n"; //\n for new line with in the message
if (validation expression 2) {
//true/pass
//no need to change following values
errorFlag = errorFlag;
errorMsg = errorMsg;
}else {
//false/fail
//set the flag and message accordingly
errorFlag = errorFlag + 1;
errorMsg = errorMsg + "validation message2" + "\n"; //\n for new line with in the message
//finally
if (errorFlag > 0) {
//>0 indicates there are one or more errors
xfa.host.message(""+errorMsg);//display all messages at one time
exit; //now since there are validation errors you can stop processing further and exit the event
//add submit code......here.... -
n mountain lion calendar, the alerts on give you a "close" or "snooze" options. What happen to being able to select how long you wanted to snooze your alert?
SnoozeMaster is now avaiable from the Mac App Store, for MacOS X 10.8 and up.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snoozemaster/id614955483?mt=12
It addresses this exact issue. You'll be able to configure different pre-set snooze times, enter custom snooze times when an alarm triggers, etc. It's what snoozing should've been from the get go.

I am trying to download a calendar into ical and keep getting this message-Some of the events in this calendar have alerts that open files or applications. Remove alerts or cancel
What am I doing wrong or missing??I have this same problem in October of 2013. I am unable to import .ics files into Lion that I exported from my Snow Leopard MacBookPro without losing all of my future events (which all have alerts attached). All of the events from BEFORE today's date are successfully importing, presumably because they are no longer expected to trigger alerts via Apple Mail. After my first unsuccessful attempt, I learned that iCal was communicating with iCloud by default. I have since turned off iCloud, but I have not found a solution to the problem. Harvey

Reminder alerts stopped working
My reminder alerts have stopped working on my iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.1 The reminders appear on the screen but no sound or vibration happen.
Hi susanmshelley,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand you are not being alerted by sound or vibration when a reminder shows up on your lock screen. I would suggest taking a look at the attached article and make sure that the sounds are turned on.
iOS: Understanding sounds, ringtones, and alerts
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5800
If the sounds are turned on and you are still not receiving the alerts, I suggest looking at the following article for troubleshooting notifications.
iOS: Understanding notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
Troubleshooting notifications
Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
Note: Notifications use Wi-Fi only when a cellular connection is unavailable. Firewalls and proxy servers may affect your ability to receive notifications. For more information, see Unable to use Apple Push Notification service (APNs).
If you're not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
Verify that the app supports notifications.
After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app to begin receiving notifications. If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
Check Settings > Notification Center to ensure that the app is configured for notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
Have a great day,

Calendar Adding Alerts Automatically - Do Not Want!
Hello all,
For some reason, Calendar has been adding alerts automatically and I do not want this to be happening. In my Calendar preferences on my Macbook Pro, I have all alerts set to "none." This only happens on newly created calendars for some reason.
The problem goes a bit futher, though, and my iPhone 4 (running 6.1) and iPad 2 (running 6.1) are also adding alerts automatically. I scrupulously deleted all the alerts that Calendar created (from my Macbook), updated my devices, only to find that there were still alerts on them. I have all alerts from Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Default Alert Times set to "none" on both devices.
I do not use iCloud or Google Calendars.
What on earth is going on and how do I fix it?I understand how IMAP works. Thanks.
The problem is that the iPhone is automatically, without user input, deleting everything from the InBox. This is determined by the log on the server. I traced the IP of the device that is deleting the email back to the iPhone. -
E71 (S60) Calendar reminder alarm too long (1 minu...
Using an E71, but suspect this is an S60 issue:
Why does the Calendar reminder alarm last for an entire minute repeat the tone continuously until 60 seconds have elapsed? While other alarms like sms, email only invoke the tone once?
As an ex-Palm Treo user, I was used to being able to set the number of times I can repeat the tone (e.g. 1, 2 ,3 times).
How do I configure the phone such that the calendar reminder only triggers the (e.g. beep) tone, 2 or 3 times? I couldn't find any config on that. Is there any work-around or 3rd party software that can do this?I also have this. My outlook calendar is the key and I like to have reminders. The fact that the alarm goes of during 1 minute sound is terribly annoying, I'd just like to have a reminder with a SMS-like sound, something I can customize at least (sound + duration + number of times it repeats...).
Anyone has info about this? I am using a E71 too. -

I just got my Droid 2 a few days ago and have looked everywhere I can think of to set up a reminder alert for text messages. I'm at a loss. Does anyone know how to do this? With every other phone I've had you can set up a reminder alert and even choose how often to be alerted, such as every 2 mins, etc.
Thanks!
~DionneYay! That worked, thanks so much

E52 two things - calendar reminder and text sendin...
Hello.
I'd like to ask if it is possible to make calendar reminder on the home screen display only events from the very same day and not from the future days?
Also - in s40 phones it was possible to cancel text sending during sending. I mean until the text was actually sent I was still able to cancel it. Can I do the same in s60?
Somehow I can't find it...
Regards,
DonAndress
--== Nokia E52 on 034.001 - working fine ==--Thanks, mate, for your hint but unfortunately you seem to be mistaken. If by 'red" button you mean the end-call button then I do this every time because I don't want to wait for the phone to show me the inbox. And I used to do it even before you gave your input. So for me that's not the correct answer.
As for the reminder - I didn't understand that.
Let me clarify what I would like to achieve. I put meeting entries in the calendar for let's say every second day. So when I look at the calendar reminder on the main screen, I would like to see the entry only from the current day and not for next days. Is that possible?
Regards,
DonAndress
