duplicate reminders
I am running XP Pro on both my work and home PC's. I have been using active
sync to sync my smart phone with Outlook (Office 2007 not sure which version) at work for quite some time. I recently purchased Office Pro 2007 for home and began syncing with this 'home' PC too. I have been noticing that when my reminders show up (for appointments) they are often duplicated. Also, annoying is the fact that when the reminders pop up I 'dismiss' them, and within minutes they pop up again. Is there a setting I need to change? What's causing this? For example- there is one that poped up a few minutes ago for an appointment in 5 day, my reminder is set for 5 minutes before start. It has now poped up 3 times while writting this. Please help!

duplicate reminders
Did you try restarting Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch?

duplicate reminders
Yes, I tried that and thought it worked until this morning when I got another
duplicate reminder. "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: Did you try restarting Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch?

duplicate reminders
The link says to use the path Outlook /cleanreminders another similar post I
saw says to use Outllo.exe /cleanreminders. I've used both now, and still get duplicate reminders simultaneously and there is only one entry in the calendar. Still stumped!

Try displaying your calendar in a table view and then adding the Reminders column to the table. Group by that column so all entries with reminders are collected together (so you can see them easier) and see if you can locate the errant entry. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]

duplicate reminders
Brian- Sorry, Ican't figure out how to do what you are suggesting. Another
annoying problem is that I get reminders every 5 minutes. I've tried to change it to 15 minutes and it goes back to 5 minute reminders.
