Default Meeting reminders not working - Outlook 2003

Hello,

I'm currently using Outlook 2003 Professional on an XP Proffessional system.
A few weeks back my user profile was corrupted (C:\Documents and
Settings\username). I renamed the existing profile with a date suffix
(C:\Documents and Settings\usernameMMYY) and re-created the profile with the
same name (C:\Documents and Settings\username).

Everything works fine with the exception of my meeting reminders in Outlook.
I no longer receive these reminders. The reminders are enabled but do not
appear.

I tried uninstalling and re-installing Outlook but the problem still exists.
I don’t see anything in the Knowledge Base that describes this problem. Has
anyone encountered this issue? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Shawn

Default Meeting reminders not working - Outlook 2003

I just wanted to add a bit more info to this post.

I attempted to start Outlook with the /CleanReminders switch and it did not
resolve the issue.

Also, when I access my account via Outlook Web Access I do get reminders.

Once again, thanks in advance for any help.

Funny you should write this today, because I had the same problem.
Upgrade to Outlook 2K3 and whammo there go the reminders. This worked
for me.

Archive your calendar using todays date as the 'older than' criteria.

Shutdown Outlook

Open using the /CleanReminders switch (yeah yeah, I know, you already
did it)

Shutdown Outlook

Open using the /ResetFolders switch.

It should work after that. It did for me anyway...... Let me know if it
works.
