Hello all:

I'm in the market for a notepad/reminder program and I'm checking out PhatPad. The features are impressive. However, I've had trouble getting the reminders to work. I've set them for a future date and time, double checked that an alarm sound is selected, double checked that my volume is on. However, when the time for the reminder rolls around, nothing happens!

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what this should do... I'm expecting this reminder to launch the note that it is attached to and play the alarm sound at the set time. So, if I'm in the today screen, at the set time, the phatpad note will pop up and an alarm will play. Is that what this feature is supposed to do? If so, why isn't it working for me?

x51v w/ A06 and the latest version of Phatpad (3.0, I think).

I don't think the PhatPad note itself shows up. When you set the alarm there is a text box near the date/time area on the reminder page and whatever you type into that box is what will show on the screen when the reminder appears. As far as the reminder not showing, that obviously shouldn't happen but I had a problem with that happening on my PPC and found that it was related to a security screen that I was using. Instead of the reminder showing I would see a small icon of PhatPad showing in the bottom toolbar. In any case the Phatpad forums are located here.
