Similar discussion over at brighthand going on. One member reported that back-up software may be the problem. He reported that since he has turned off the battery moniter(in the back-up program) and scheduled back-ups the problem has not recurred. Another reader has mentioned similar success. I, also have had success with this. I had battery moniter running, but it is now disabled. Also, I NEVER had pocket plus installed on my unit and still ahd these problems.

lol... just don't be throwing software on your PPC if you don't know if it works with it correctly. Installing doesn't mean it works!

The Backup software that is causing the problem came in the unit ROM... 8O So, no, I didn't install it... Somebody from HP did...

spritesoftware has an update to ipaq backup on their site (it says 2.1.2 on the site, my 2210 has 1.1.0.6), so maybe it's been fixed in the newer version. See if it still messes up with scheduled backups after the update...

I am having these same Alarm issues on my 5555, and I have not yet used or set up the Backup software that came loaded on the unit...

I did have spb Pocket Plus loaded (and since removed)...

Has anyone mentioned the fact that an Alarm will come on, but not sound? That happens to me quite frequently...
BUT, an interesting observation - if I make the appointment using Agenda Fusion and set the reminder for something other than the Default time of 8am, the reminder will go off!.
