Displaying due iOS reminder on PC?
Arguably OT but I'm guessing there must be other iPhone users here,
so... I can enter Reminders and Calendar events on my iPhone, iPad or my Win 10 PC. They are ‘synced’ in the sense that they all appear in the lists on all three computers. But how do I get the alert message to pop up on my Win 10 PC when due please? After much research I’m frustrated that I’ve still not found a solution. Terry, East Grinstead, UK |

Another point might be, that not all the things stuffed in a calendar may have a Notification associated with them. Schedule a "meeting" as an event, as that's the thing most likely to have a "reminder" concept associated with it. If your birthday is on a certain date, entering that in the calendar wouldn't be "noteworthy". When would it be appropriate to give a Notification dialog for that ? Paul |

Are you asking if I'm using Outlook? No, I'm not. Are you suggesting I need to use Outlook? If so then I'll pass, as I have a reliable email app already. I regard email as completely independent of my reminders issue. Anyone here with an iPhone or iPad, as well as a Win 10 PC? Terry, East Grinstead, UK |

I don't use icloud so can't help on the specifics I'm afraid. |

Terry, East Grinstead, UK Hi Terry, I use iCloud and have Windows 10 synced with my iCloud account as well. I didn’t notice about the past due popup as most of the time I use a MacBook. I get past due popups on my Mac all the time. You setup a one-time iCloud password for use in Windows 10 for your email account, which should setup the calendar on Windows 10. Are you on the latest Windows 10 which I think is now 1803? -- Peter Kozlov |

Terry, East Grinstead, UK Hey Terry, Do you get the Windows 10 notifications from Calendar on other calendar’s, like from Outlook.com? I setup a test after the last post on Windows and it popped up just fine. Maybe, check settings: All Settings System Notifications and Actions Calendar Do you have that all turned on? -- Peter Kozlov |

Terry, East Grinstead, UK Hi Terry, Just tested a calendar event created with Fantastical 2 on my iPhone. Asked for a 5 minute before the event reminder. This did indeed pop up as desired on Windows. Check those settings I mention. Works fine over here. -- Peter Kozlov |

Terry, East Grinstead, UK Hi Terry, Just tested a calendar event created with Fantastical 2 on my iPhone. Asked for a 5 minute before the event reminder. This did indeed pop up as desired on Windows. Check those settings I mention. Works fine over here. Hi Peter, Thanks for those three replies, pleased to have you on the case! However, I'm not really clear I understand some of your questions. "I use iCloud and have Windows 10 synced with my iCloud account as well. I didn’t notice about the past due popup as most of the time I use a MacBook. I get past due popups on my Mac all the time." So you're using a Windows PC and a Mac? I would expect no problems using iCloud entirely on Apple computers. I guess we need to confine the discussion to your experience on your Win 10 PC. -------------------- "You setup a one-time iCloud password for use in Windows 10 for your email account, which should setup the calendar on Windows 10." But as mentioned up-thread, I don't use Outlook or other calendars. (My email and newsgroup reader is Forte's Agent.) But I do *have* Outlook and GMail accounts, set up years ago. So if it's a possible way to solve my problem I would willingly experiment with my Outlook account, even though I never use it to receive or send email. Could you step me through exactly what you did to create this 'one-time iCloud password' please. Why would that not affect my *existing* iCloud password (my 'Apple' password)? -------------------- "Are you on the latest Windows 10 which I think is now 1803?" Yes, I updated yesterday to 1803 (17134.48) -------------------- "Do you get the Windows 10 notifications from Calendar on other calendar’s, like from Outlook.com?" I don't use any other calendars. I'm confused enough with *one*! Terry, East Grinstead, UK |
