Can't find or erase appointment!

Hi all,

I've been having a strange problem for the past while. Everyday my axim tells me I missed a 6AM appointment (I get up at 8am :). I'd like to delete this appointment but I can't find the bugger. It doesn't show up on my PC, nor on the Axim's calendar. It's completely hidden! Other appointments do show up on the axim's calendar so it's not a general problem. Any ideas? Happen to anyone else? Seems like a strange bug. I suppose I could reinstall everything but I'd rather avoid that if at all possible.

Many thanks,.

Next time the reminder pops up, tap it to find out what day it is on and then you will be able to find it.

Hey thanks for the thought. I've tried that. Tapping doesn't lead anywhere. It brings me to the calendar but it's empty at the 6am slot. Across the entire week/month etc. All my other appointments show up as blocks but the 6 is mysteriously absent.
Just to be sure I scanned across every week going back 6 months (I've only had the Axim for 4) and there's nothing there.

I can guess as to how this happened. I walk to work with my axim on listening to mp3s or RM streams. Sometimes when I take it out of my bag the odd bump as turned on a few programs or whatnot. I guess one bump managed to make a perpetual 6am appointment! :)

It's probably an alarm rather than an appointment - Start, Settings, System (tab), Clock, Alarms (tab). Uncheck the box.

I was having the same problem. I was actually working on the problem when I read this. It was driving me crazy. Thanks for the tip ikehiker. Worked like a charm

A million thanks Ike. I never even thought of checking the alarms! Such a simple problem but would have plagued me for, well, ever.
