Okay, The Dash only has 1 Alarm you can set. So I set my alarm the other day for 7:30 AM and then one day 11:30 AM. Now, I have turned the alarm off but some how something happened and those two alarms go off EVERY day. They also go off even if I have the alarm on and set for a certain time.

I've checked my calander for any alarms and I've checked to make sure the actual alarm clock was off before I went to bed but no matter what those 2 alarms go off every day!

Does any know if there is a file I can edit that saves the alarm time or any other way to fix this?

I had the same problem, but I fixed it by using SK Tools lite to clean out the notifications queue.

T-Will From HowardForums posted this solution.

1. Load SKTools Smartphone Edition (Clean up and uninstaller utility) http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?sktools/m_feat.html#lite
2. Select View -> Maintenance -> Notifications Queue
3. Scroll to the bottom of the list and there should be multiple entries already checked for “Clock.exe”.
4. Select Action -> Delete marked
5. Do a soft reset (turn off then back on).

One final step I should have added is DO NOT USE THE BUILT-IN ALARM!!! ;) I don't know why, but it seems like Microsoft has never been able to build a reliable alarm into their Windows Mobile OS.

Install a 3rd-party alarm app such as Gentimer (that's what I use but there are other alarm utilities out there that I've heard work fine).
