I'm running Outlook for Mac 2011 and my office reminders keep popping up even after I've dismissed them. Additionally, I'm also sending out new invites to meeting attendees, etc. apparently. It's something with the calendar syncing with the iPhone I think but am not sure how to fix / stop it. Help?
iPhone 4, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Outlook is a Microsoft product, not an Apple one. You will get better and faster help by posting on Microsoft's simialr forums here:
Those forums have the advantage in that MS employees from their Macintosh Business Unit often provide answers to posts.
You, like many others, been misled by counterintuitive forum labeling to the forum for iMacs made before 2006; they cannot run Office 2011, so I'm asking the Host to move your post to teh forum for current generation iMacs.
I have the same issue. Outlook 2011 for Mac running on an Exchange Server. The only reminders that will not dismiss permanently are ones without a due date. I have had success in making the reminders go away by selecting the reminder and adding a due date of "today" and then dismissing.
Hopefully this works for me as well. Just tried it.
I'll follow up and post the results.
I had the same issue, cleared the cache and after re-syncing my calendar the reminders were back. But then I noticed that all the reoccurring reminders were flagged for follow-up. Double-click each reminder, clear the flag and the reminders stop reoccurring... at least for me 🙂
I am having this issue with the 2016 version using Exchange, but, its a co-workers reminders, not mine, and i cannot delete them. They keep adding up each time I turn outlook on.
Did you ever resolve this situation? I'm having the same problem after installing Office 2016 the installer asked me if I wanted to import the data from Outlook 2011 and I said yes. Apparently this was a mistake.

This ^^^
Seems to be the least intrusive and worked just fine. This may be a good option if you have only a handful of these straggler notifications.
This also solved my problem.
Note : after clearing my cache of my exchange inbox folder (as suggested earlier in this thread) the mail downloading process is taking ages and am not getting any new messages visible in my inbox...
Clearing the inbox cache folder in other words did not solve the problem of removing the Outlook reminders, on the contrary it seemed have created another problem...
