Outlook Calendar alerts not working...how do I fix this?

[Tammy]

While trying to look up a date on my computer's Date and Time Properties
window, I accidentally set the date to the future and all of my future alerts
from my Outlook calendar popped up. I freaked out because so many popped up
at once and I accidentally dismissed them all...is there any possible way to
reset them to alert again? Also, no matter what new alerts I put up, I never
get alerted of these new events...any help on this would be much appreciated,
thanks!

if they were dismissed, there is no real record of what they were. you can
try looking at the Modified field to see if that helps to identify the ones
you dismissed.

try starting outlook with the cleanreminders switch - this should help with
the new reminders you set not working.

finally, if you do this often and for whatever reason, choose to use the
windows time /date applet instead of outlook's calendar, one of the tools
here will prevent such problems in the future:

that are easy to access, I forget if the others do. (Vista includes a tray
calendar and hides the time & date changer.)
