Outlook 2007 Toodledo: Unwanted Reminders
Author Message

Hello,

again I gave the Chromatic Dragon Toodledo syncing tool for Outlook a try and still encountered the same problem as in 2009 (http://www.toodledo.com/forums/8/4333/0/automatic-reminders-in-outlook-after-sync.html):

Sync between Toodledo website and Toodledo iPhone app works very well. Due date and due time of tasks are synced without any problem. Usually I don´t use reminders but when necessary they work well too.

Outlook 2007 apparently just uses due date but no due time for tasks at all. Not easy to understand but no problem so far.

Now there is one problem when syncing tasks from the Toodledo website to Outlook: The due time of the task in Toodledo is changed to a reminder time in Outlook, so I get useless and nervestriking reminders on my desktop all day long.

In the options of the chromadrake syncing tool I haven´t changed the task reminder interval from "0" yet.

Is there anybody here with the same configuration Outlook 2007 <-> Chromadrake syncing tool <-> Toodledo?
Do you have the same problem with due time when syncing?
Did you find any way to induce Chromadrake to ignore the due time when syncing from Toodledo to Outlook?

Thank you very much in advance!

Cheers
Eric

Hi - I work it the same way you do - with the Chromadrake Syncing tool between Outlook 2007 and Toodledo (on 2 PCs - work and home). I will make note of how this works and get bck to you. I know there is a disconnect between the "priorities" (low,normal, high) in Outlook vs Toodleo. I think the problem does come from Outlook not having a "due time" - let me play with this and get back to you.

Hi kgorosh,

your help will be very much appreciated!

At first I would suggest to add a test task on toodledos website with due time and without reminder, then sync, then have a look whether the task has a reminder in your Outlook or not.

Thanks

Hello,

are there really no users around who are syncing Outlook with Toodledo using the Chromatic Dragon syncing tool?
Or is anything wrong with my postings?

Confused

Yes, I have the same setup and the same issue. It doesn't bother me that much, as I don't use the due time field much.

I would have seen your post a lot sooner if it had been in one of the other forums.

Thank you, Daniel!

Meanwhile I disactivated the reminder sound, now it doesn´t bother me that much as before either.
