Problem: Only the appointment and task notification not working.

I was just browsing the site and found lots of people having this problem so I figured I'd test it out (i've never used this function before) To my surprise, it doesn't work. I've enabled all the sound, notification and LED flash under setting. Set up different tasks and appointments and I don't get any sound and popups. I've tried the reset sound level, changing alarm sound clips and none of those helped. Just want to mention, all other notification works (wifi, activesync, etc)

Solution:
I remember under memmaid there is a section for notification queue and I figured to see what's going on.

First, in the queue list, I've found 7 duplicat entries. (may be these are the ones that I set up for testing and never activated even the time has past) I removed all those.

Second, I also see some notifications (7 of them) labled as "task" but the due day is on Jan. 01 /4017 !!! I've no idea how that got in there. I removed those as well.

Next I found 2 blank entries (no name) and if you click on them, in the info box it'll display 2 lines of strange strings. (looks like those registery folder you find in windows with very long time, it looks like this: {ab234gbkjadsf-afbweb} I don't know what those were and since it doesn't even have a name i doubt it is used by anything else so I deleted those as well. (i was ready for a hard reset so don't care much if I screw things up)

After cleaned up the queue list I now only have the default things left such as repllog.exe calnot.exe, etc.

My alarm for both calendar and tasks started working immediately after I've done the above. So far I've tried setting up more than 20 appoints and tasks and i've gotten the popup and sound alarm for all of them.

Hope this can help those who's having the problem.
