Is it possible to get the Microsoft Office Reminders icon to bounce more than once in the dock when a flag or reminder alert is triggered? One bounce is just too easy to miss. I'm sure in past versions of Reminders the icon used to carry on bouncing
until you acknowledged it, which is what you want it to do.
Please advise me on how to import 1,633 html files into my current database's empty Notes folder. I am running Outlook version 14.2.3 and Lion 10.7.4.
When I lost all Notes from my current database and rebuilding Outlook didn't help , I dragged the Notes from a 2-week-old database clone to a desktop folder where they were converted to html files.
With the exception of the empty, current Notes part of the current database, everything else works perfectly. I don't know how to import only Notes without losing hundreds of new and changed Tasks, Reminders, Mail, and Contacts that were incorporated into the current database over the past two weeks.
Thanks very much for reading my plea for help.

I use my MacBook Pro sometimes as a laptop and other times connected to a cinema screen in my office. I've found that if I popsition the Office Reminders window too far to the right when working on the large screen, if I then detach it and open the MacBook
screen the Reminder window is so far to the right it is outside the visible area of the screen. Othe items such as desktop icons don't seem to suffer from this problem, they adjust to the screen size and remain in the positions they were. Is there some way
to make the Reminders window do the same?
100% operator error, I know. I was busy, in a rush, and had 40 or so reminders in the Reminders windows.
In a rush, I mistakenly clicked "Dismiss All" when I wanted to dismiss a single entry.
Most of the 40 were items I could dismiss, but about a dozen were not. The ones I needed to keep were events that came due far in the past, but that I kept hitting snooze on, as a way to remember them.
How does one find these "recently dismissed" events in the List view of the Calendar? I looked for a Modified column but found no such thing.
Can I instead find them on the hard drive? On TimeMachine?
Any tips or ideas would be appreciated.

Hello,
I set up my events on the Outlook calendar (specific time events, all-day events, etc) but the reminder doesn't pop up like it does for the Windows version of Outlook (I'm running Lion on my Mac). What can I do for the reminders to show for events?
Thanks.
There is either a problem here, or my iMac's (late 2006) hard drive/OS is corrupt. Even with a clean install of MS Office 2011 and then updating it to 14.2.2, and with iCal purged of all prior associations, when you run Sync Services on a POP Account the
entries loop and continue repeating themselves indefinitely, this in turn launches MS Office Reminders into a frantic tizzy, and after a few moments you have lost control of your computer. The only way out is a hard reset.
I will wipe my hard drive and come back to this forum next, but for now, I am posting this because i am seeing no other posts that admit to this problem.
After my Time Machine restore, I had to re-enter my license number - all well and good - but I keep getting those Office Reminders going off like fireworks. I remembered that the problem could be solved by rebuilding my Main Identity. So I held down the
option key while starting Outlook.
Now I'm locked in a vicious cycle of trying to rebuild the database. I get a message that all MS apps need to be closed (which I've already done - including quitting the MS daemon) and when I click OK, I get another screen telling me that some applications could not be closed. I click again and get back to the all apps must be closed dialog box again. And if I just quit the process and open Outlook again, the reminders just keep cycling (although I kill that process, too).
What to do?
Thanks,
