Axim not turning itself off after displaying an appointment alarm

If I set an alarm for an appointment, my Axim does not turn itself off after the alarm sounds. resulting in the battery running down if I don't catch it and turn it off manually.

Thanks in advance for any assistance

Did you set your battery power?
(Start--> Settings --> System tab
- tap on Power
- tap on Control tab
-make sure On battery power is checked and set it to the time desired. I have mine set for 3 minutes but I suggest that you test it for 30 seconds with another alarm set.

Hi,
\
My setting was at 5 minutes so that shouldn't have been the problem. I changed it to 3 minutes, but that still doesn't account for the fact that it never turns off after an alarm???

i was having same trouble and even tried what ceej13 recommended but had to do it several times before it stuck - seemed to remove this preference after I was quite sure I saved it. I did a hard reset and restored from backup on SD and set preference and haven't had the trouble since (so far!).

Similar problem with light notification!?

My notification light won't go off. Any suggestions? I did go into settings and unchecked the light notification icon, yet it has not had an effect.
