Moving REMINDERS to a new computer
 
I've just set up a new computer and migrated my PST file successfully.

However I see that my Reminders are GONE! How do I transfer the reminders
from my old computer to the new computer.

Please don't tell me I have to set them all up again.

How did you "migrate" your pst file? If you'd done it properly I suggest
that the reminders would NOT have disappeared.

I transferred the file using the method Microsoft describes on its own website.

I copied the PST file over to the new computer and Opened it.

Is this PST the only PST loaded on the new Outlook installation, or is
it a secondary PST? Older versions of Outlook only triggered reminders
on the primary PST, although I think this limitation is gone in 2007.

You also might want to try launching Outlook with the /cleanreminders
switch, this can fix a variety of reminder related problems.

The method described is flawed, copying the pst to the default location if
by doing so overwrites an existing pst can corrupt both the pst and the
Profile
And in Vista is not the correct default path, and if copying to the Vista
default path can lead to permissions isues
