OK, I'll bite, where did I miss the clues to solving this puzzle? I had the latest pocketplus installed, but none of the modules were activated. After reading your post I removed it, reset, and had the PIE problem again. Reset twice more, gave up, went to sleep, woke up and PIE is working again. I don't know if I can take this any longer. I've been using ppcs for 2+ years and it seems like things are getting worse instead of better. Maybe it's time to go back to a paper planner, or take a look at the new Clies.

Bob and Tom Enterprises. :-)

I can't explain why you had the problems even when the modules weren't selected. In my case I simply removed the pgm. I expect a rather quick turnaround from them with an update.

Default A new day - some new attempts

Okay - it's Friday morning, and from reading all of the latest replies to this thread, I have removed Pocket Plus.
My 5555 is cradled here at my desk and I have several reminders that will be due to go off throughout the day...

I'll report my findings! Fingers crossed!

On a separate note, last night I was surfing with Pocket IE and several times, the app just closed, right out of the blue! Uh oh...! I know others have mentioned IE issues.... :worried:

Default maybe....?!

I don't want to speak too soon, but it does appear like the issue has gone away upon removing spb's Pocket Plus...

I've had reminders going off all day, and not a single one has freaked out.

If it is indeed Pocket Plus, I hope they identify and resolve the issue soon - I really use that app a LOT!
:alfdance:

Thats my findings too. Uninstalled SPB Pocket Plus, and things seem to have brightened up. To early for delivering judgment, but ironically Pocket Plus, wich saved the day on PPC2002, seems to do the oposite on WM2003. Would be nice to hear from others with similar/different discoveries.

Default Over a full day...

Over a full day of using the 5555 without Pocket Plus, and no issues.

I'll be glad when they fix it! I miss that app! :roll:

Unfortunately you do have to remove it. disabling the repeating alarms feature in Pocket Plus isn't enough.

They are aware of it and working on it.
