Re: Appointments and Notifications

2013-07-22 Thread Gary Petraccaro
It's all helping, but I have some kind of problem with the app itself.  The 
Applecare person I eventually talked with told me that I should be able to find 
a delete button below the notes option that's there when setting up an 
appointment.  I never found it.  By accident I flicked right and there it was, 
but I could never find it anywhere on the screen without flicking.

  Hello, Gary,


  When you set up an appointment in the calendars app, there is an option to 
set an alert. Once you set 1 alert, for up to 2 days in advance and press the 
done button, an option to set a second alert is presented. Double tap it, and 
the same options will be available, from 2 days before to at time of event. 
Select your choice and double tap the done button. When you completely finish 
setting everything for the event, don't forget to double tap the done button at 
the top right, or the event will not be entered into the calendar.


  Once you've done this, you should be alerted at both of the times you've set 
when setting up the event. Go into settings into notification center, and find 
the calendar app. Make sure it is listed under in notification center. Then, 
double tap it, and make sure the alert style you set is for banners or alert, 
for if it is set to none, you will not get the alert even though you set it 
when setting up the event.


  You can also set a reminder using Siri, which gives you the option of setting 
a reminder for even before the maximum 2 days offered when setting up the 
event. So, for example, you can tell Siri to set a reminder to do something or 
for an event. siri will ask you when you want to be reminded, and you can say 
one week before, or specify a certain date and time Siri will then remind you 
at the specified time you set. This is in addition to the alerts you may have 
set up in the calendar. Also, you can set a reminder with Siri without a 
calendar event associated with it.


  Hope all of this has helped :)


  Marcy

Yes, alerts are automatic. You need to set the reminder notifications and then 
exit the screen with the ok button for the reminder notification to become 
active.

 In the add appointment screen, double tap on the alert button and flick 
 through and choose the amount of time you want the first alert.  Then 
 double tap done to go back to the add appointment screen.
 Then right flick through the screen, and you will find a second alert 
 button after the first one you have already set.  This second one does not 
 appear until the first alert has been set.
 If you want to set a second alert, then double tap on the second alert 
 button, and do the same thing you did with the first alert.
 
 I usually set two alerts.
 I usually set my first alert 1 day ahead just as a reminder what is coming 
 the next day, then I set my second alert for a little before my actual 
 appointment time.

In the add appointment screen, double tap on the alert button and flick 
through and choose the amount of time you want the first alert.  Then 
double tap done to go back to the add appointment screen.
Then right flick through the screen, and you will find a second alert 
button after the first one you have already set.  This second one does 
not appear until the first alert has been set.
If you want to set a second alert, then double tap on the second alert 
button, and do the same thing you did with the first alert.


I usually set two alerts.
I usually set my first alert 1 day ahead just as a reminder what is 
coming the next day, then I set my second alert for a little before my

I tried to use Siri to schedule an appointment and have two alerts, and was 
not successful.

I might not be doing something right, but I tried multiple times.

In the add appointment screen, double tap on the alert button and flick 
through and choose the amount of time you want the first alert.  Then 
double tap done to go back to the add appointment screen.
Then right flick through the screen, and you will find a second alert 
button after the first one you have already set.  This second one does not 
appear until the first alert has been set.
If you want to set a second alert, then double tap on the second alert 
button, and do the same thing you did with the first alert.


I usually set two alerts.
I usually set my first alert 1 day ahead just as a reminder what is coming 
the next day, then I set my second alert for a little before my actual 
appointment time.

The only times I have done that successfully, I set up the appointment with

Have you tried setting an alert and seeing of both your default and the new one

Re: Appointments and Notifications

2013-07-19 Thread Chris Chaffin


In the add appointment screen, double tap on the alert button and flick 
through and choose the amount of time you want the first alert.  Then double 
tap done to go back to the add appointment screen.
Then right flick through the screen, and you will find a second alert button 
after the first one you have already set.  This second one does not appear 
until the first alert has been set.
If you want to set a second alert, then double tap on the second alert 
button, and do the same thing you did with the first alert.


I usually set two alerts.
I usually set my first alert 1 day ahead just as a reminder what is coming 
the next day, then I set my second alert for a little before my actual 
appointment time.


HTH,
