iPhone Calendar Alerts not Working

Hi there.....I have the same problem as isabelarcher. I create all of my calender items direct from my iphone and do not have any external calender details set up. Alerts do not go off. the calender item looks to be set up propelry when I review them.

I am using an iPhone 4 using IOS4.3.5.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same issue. I have set up a daily alert in the iPhone, and it has yet to work, after a week. I keep changing the sound and calendar settings, have done the time zone thing, but nothing works. I don't know what other parameters to tinker with. It's crazy.

I had an issue with calendar alerts and badges for my Gmail calendars synced to my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3.3) not working. They had been working for a time prior.

To fix the problem, I went into "Settings", "Mail, Contacts, Calendars", "Gmail", and turned off the Calendar. I deleted the calendar entries off the iPhone when prompted. I then turned back on the Calendar in Gmail settings.

After doing this, open up the calendar on the iPhone. Select the "Calendars" button in the upper left corner, and enable the main calendar by selecting it. All of my calendar event showed back up but the invite badge would not appear. I rebooted serveral times; deleted the profile and re-added utilizing Microsoft Exchange - see http://tinyurl.com/3efv392. I then noted that MobileMe (Find My iPhone) was inactive; I activated,rebooted and all alerts are working again.

Appears to be an issue with Gmail Exchnage sync and MobileMe; a few days later I noted I was receiving Gmail calendar emails but no badges. I checked under Mail, Contact, Calendar on my iPhone and sure enough MobileMe was inactive again (I did not turn it off). I re-activated; rebooted and the Gmail invite notifications for all my calendars began working again.

Hope this helps.

Had the same issue but with iPod touch.

I found this searching Google help for exchange and my issue is resolved!

- To enable 'New events', sign in to your Google Calendar using the web browser on your phone or computer. Go to Calendar Settings > Calendars > Click on the Notifications for the calendar you want to sync. Under Email check 'New events' (and any of the other Invitation settings you want enabled e.g. changed events, cancelled events, event responses), and click Save.
