How do I get the 'Reminders' time to stop defaulting to 5 minutes

R

Reminders Settings

Hello,
the Reminders box with Calendar entries pops up every 5 minutes, and when I
go to change the Reminder time - in the drop down box - it says to click the
Snooze button to activate the change - but nothing happens except it defaults
back to 5 minutes again. It's really irritating, and even my clever computer
savvy friends can't resolve the problem. Help please!

do you mean you can't change the reminder time to default to another time or
even if you choose 1 hr, it still only snoozes for 5 min?

The first is expected behavior - it will always show 5 min in the dropdown
as the default, the second is not. Try running the cleanreminders switch and
see if it helps.
