Calendar Alerts

[phillyboom]

Hi Im new to the iphone and loving it. Hope someone can help me with this.

I have my work exchange calendar synced with my phone. When im sitting at my desktop outlook pops up a reminder automatically 15 minutes before each meeting.

However i do not receive an "alert" on my iphone. When i go into the event>edit>alert....all the event alerts are set to none. Meaning i never get an alert on my iphone for any appointments.

I can manually go in and turn on alerts for each appointment but i feel that would take forever.

My question is this...is there a way to turn on Alerts for all events within a calendar on my phone. Or possibly is there an app that can serve the same function?

Thanks so much in advance

By default, no. It's a glaring omission in my book. Perhaps someone else can answer the question if a 3rd party app can do the job.

I've done a little searching and found a link that may help. It doesn't describe your problem exactly, but it may be enough to get you pointed in the right direction.

The answer is PocketInformant. Anyone who wants to actually use the iPhone for appointments needs it.

I don't know the answer to your question, but I just wanted to say that alert settings for events I have in Outlook carry over to my iPhone and I get event reminders just fine on my phone. I wonder if turning off calendar sync and then turning it back on would correct this?
