Extend calendar notification alarm time

When setting notifications for calendar entries, the notification alarm only rings for 5 seconds before silencing. Any idea how to extend the time the alarm rings?

PC Suite calendar memo alarm: time is NOT set

Using PC Suite 7.1.50.2 Dutch. Nokia 6230i via Bluetooth.When I enter a new memo in the calendar in PC Suite and I set an alarm to go for this memo (the same day), the time I enter for the alarm is NOT correct after saving the alert. The alert-time for the memo ALWAYS is 23.59 in the phones agenda, whatever time I enter in PC Suite when adding the memo-with-alarm. Missed some important meetings before I found out...
Help.

come on JSanders, you know too well this is all to do with the problems since 1565 update in february which has still not been sorted for many users.
@MrDJ
Has it been sorted for others, since you say it's not been fixed for many?

Issues with Alarm Clock and Calendar Notifications

I have noticed that when I am using the Alarm clock, it will not go off when the calendar is showing a meeting reminder....
Is there any way to dis-activate this? My alarm clock will not work.. and there are too many appts in my calendar to go thru them to change...

I also have the same issue. If the alarm is set and the calendar sends a notification just prior to the alarm time, the calendar notification prevents the alarm from going off. I understand it is a bug, but when will it be fixed? What is the bug ID? how do we track known bugs so we know they are being fixed? The problem is with the iPhone's included clock and calendar apps, so it is not a 3rd Party application issue, right? Thanks!

HT1338 I have a problem with the calendar and notifications, every time I dismiss or snooze locks up and hangs, just reboot goes.

Calendar notification problem on 8900 handset

Hi,
I'm having a very strange problem with calendar notifications not working intermittently on my 8900 running OS 4.6, upgraded BBM to 5.0.0.57 and BerryBuzz 2.1.35. Stock Zen theme.
I don't suspect BerryBuzz but I'm mentioning it in case it's relevant.
I have set various appointments and usually I get notifications. I have several recurring weekly and daily appointments and on one particular item I didn't get notified two Wednesdays in a row and also today, Thursday. The particular appointment I'm having trouble with is set to recur on certain days of the week, not every weekday.
I have deleted this appointment and added it back several times and it doesn't seem to make the problem go away.
After I miss the 30 minute prior notification and if I am still before the 15 minute mark, if I change the reminder to be 15 minutes I do get the reminder that didn't work at 30 minutes, at the correct time (15 minutes prior to the appointment).
I am not in bedside mode at the time of the alarm.
Thanks for any help.

Needs a drink perhaps.

Calendar notifications keep turning back on

I like to have all calendar notificatins turned off, but every time I restart my computer (iMac 27" late 2012 with Yosemite) I find that calendar notifications are all turned back on - alerts, notificationsin lock screen, notificatin center, badge app, playing sound. I turn everything off and all works as it should until I restart my iMac and all the calendar notifications turn back on by themselves. Can anyone help with advice for me to keep the calendar notifications off? It's really annoying to have to change the settings every time I restart.
Thanks!

Reminder Alarm Time on Blackberry is incorrect

When users create any appointment in calendar, as soon as the
acceptance is on his BB, the Reminder Alarm on the B pops up.
-BB shows alarmtime = 58218655
-Only users on my secondary PostOffice have this problem.
-Appts are created on the PC (I have not tried creating one on the BB)
-It doesn't matter if its accepted on the PC or on the BB.
-Syncs appears fine for creating, reading, accepting, example:
when you read the appt on the BB, it syncs that action and it
shows up as 'read' (aka unbolded) in GW on the PC.
-Alarm time is only visible after its been accepted
-PC always shows Correct Reminder Alarm time = 5 min
I found a similar issue reported in this link:
Synch with Groupwise Causes alarms to be set at 12... - BlackBerry Support Community Forums
However, the solution there was confusing to me. "install 7.0.3 HP1" But do I install that on my BES server or the PC? It didn't say what version was on the PC originally. Currently I have 7.0.3 HP3 installed on the users PCs and on My Server.
Please Help,
Should I downgrade my GW client back to HP1? On my BES server?
Is there a Post-office Setting I can check?
How can I verify what HP version I have installed on my Server components, such as my Post Offices? I believe I am running 7.0.3 on all components of my GW system.

How do I stop getting shared calendar notifications?

If I share a calendar to someone in read-only mode, how can I prevent them from being spammed with notifications every time I add or change appointments? Similarly, when I've subscribed to someone else's shared calendar, can I prevent myself from being similarly spammed?

Going to answer my own question after searching the web a bit more...
The setting is not in the Notification Center, where you'd expect... it's in the Calendar app on OS X, and in the Mail, Contacts and Calendar settings in iOS 6 (don't know about 7 yet ).
In OS X, open your Calendar and from the menu bar choose Calendar > Preferences and then highlight the Alerts tab. Second from the bottom is a checkbox labelled "Turn off shared calendar messages in Notification Center"... it's unchecked, and you need to put a check mark (aka tick) in that box. To be honest, I think this is poorly designed, because putting a check mark in a box to disable a setting is rather like a double negative, and probably why I've seen so many people think they have this set correctly when in fact the opposite is true.
There's a similar setting on iPhones/iPads too, and again it's hidden away, but at least it's the right way round. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and scroll right to the bottom. Where it says "Shared Calendar Alerts" change this setting to "OFF" (it's ON by default).

Samsung Brightside calendar notification not going away

Why doesn't the calendar notification disappear when there are no scheduled events on my Samsung Brightside?

Thank you for this information, summersrn28. That is definitely very strange. Let's give this a try. I recommend setting up one or two events, and then either waiting for the schedule notification date or time to arrive, or canceling them right away. This can possibly make the random notification go away.
Please keep us posted.

Why is it when you set a calender event in outlook 2010 (in UK) with a reminder alarm for 30mins prior) and have the iphone set to keep the appointment time relative to the local country time that you travelled to, the alarm time is still at uk time ?????

why is it when you set a calendar event in outlook 2010 (whilst i am in UK) with a reminder alarm for 30mins prior to the appointment time) and have the iPhone set to keep the appointment time relative to the new country time that i have travelled to (this works OK), the alarm time is still relative to the UK time and not in sync with the local country time like the main appointment is.
Does anyone know the answer please.

This has to do with the Time Zone Support selected in your phone. If you check in Settings>Mail, Contact, Calendars, there is a setting for Time Zone Support at the bottom of the page under Calendars. If that is turned to off, the calendar should support the local time. Because time is set to Automatic (since you say the time is correct on the iPhone), it is reflecting the local time. That information comes from the carrier, not the iPhone itself. You can check, however the iPhone says that if you turn off the Time Zone support, it should reflect in the local time. Do a test, if possible, and see if that will do what you are asking.

Modify an All Day appointment/Change Alarm time

It has come to my attention recently that in Webaccess you can create an All Day Appointment but you can't modify it once it is created (appears you would have to delete it and recreate it).
We have just migrated our Groupwise 8 installation on physical servers to Groupwise 2012 on VM. I believe that this issue existed on the Groupwise 8 Webaccess also.
Also, someone asked if it is possible to change the Alarm time of a particular appointment in Webaccess.
Any assistance would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Charlie

I should have been clearer, this is a "Posted Appointment" set to "All Day"
If it is a Posted Appointment that is NOT an "All Day", you just double-click it and you can make changes but an "All Day" posted appointment just brings up view window and you are unable to modify it.
Are thinking there should be a "modify" option? (I don't see that in the 32-bit client either--at least on the Calendar)
Same with an all-day event.
Technically if you modify the time on any appointment (even in 32-bit client) it retracts and resends. Modifying RECIPIENTS is a diff. story, though (I believe).
I could be wrong.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by the alarm time?
I'm only aware of what's set in the Client Options (32-bit client):
Tools -> Options -> Calendar -> General
On accept, set a default alarm for BLAH
If that's what you mean, I do not see those options in the WebAccess code (in Options -> Calendar, anyway)
If I set a "Posted Appointment" in the Client, inside the Appointment form, from the Menu bar, I can select "Actions->Alarm" and change the number of minutes before the appointment that the Alarm will go off. There is nowhere in the WebAccess that you can set Alarm minutes. It appears to always set the Alarm to 5 minutes.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!

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.

IOS 5 Calendar Notification showing Unchecked Calendars

My calendar app is working fine, it shows the calendars I sync, when I uncheck a calendar it disapears from the calendar app as it is supposed to. However, when I pull down the notification screen the calendar notifications show all of my calendars, regardless of whether they are checked or not.
Does anyone know how to select which calendars appear on the notification screen? It seems to show any calendar, checked or unchecked. I sync with Google Calendar through the Exchange settings.

Thanks for posting this... I am having the same issue.. I hope we can get an answer soon... My daughter's calendar is full and I don't want to see it all the time.
The only work around I have found it to goto http://google.com/calendar/iphoneselect and turn the calendar Sync off.
But that is a pain for when I actually want to see the calendar as I have to go an turn it on and turn my phone off/on to get it back. I would much rather turn it off and on with the calendar settings.

Calendar Notifications on SIII

i have tried to change the default calendar notification but it always reverts back to the "on time" tone which is useless. How do i make a change stick???

You need to open your calendar app. Then press the phone menu button and click on settings. Go down to "events notification" and there you'll be able to set the reminder to what you'd like it to be.
