The default reminders in Google Calendar are
[ul]
[li]Notification - 4 hrs before[/li][li]email - 10 min before[/li][/ul]
Is there anyway to change these defaults? I’ve poked around but can’t find anything.
I just imported an 8am meeting; I do not need to be reminded about it @ 4am! :mad: I also want a notification about something happening, not an email (they make different sounds on my phone so I can tell what it is w/o even looking at my phone).
I can see the meeting from my phone but can’t edit it. Maybe if I go onto the website but it’s pretty stupid to have to remember to make changes when I go home at night.
You can edit your default notifications for both regular events and all-day events. You can also choose to be notified with pop-up notifications, emails, or both.
Open Google Calendar.
Click the settings gear in the top right .
Select Settings.
Click the Calendars tab at the top.
Click Edit notifications next to your calendar’s name.
Click a notification to edit it, or add another notification.
Ahhhh, you need to be in calendar view before clicking on settings. When I previously did that from the gmail view I got settings, but not for the calendar.
I think that’s a poor design to only show settings for the screen you’re in rather than overall.
