< Esato Forum Index > Sony Ericsson / Sony > Software, Firmware and Drivers > W810i - Is there a Multiple Alarm Software Bookmark topic

Paparazzi Posts: 37

As the title says ... Is there a Multiple Alarm Software that I can download from somewhere that is preferably ...FREE?

I have one for my Timex watch which could even be set to repeat every Saturdays or Sundays or whatever or even all days except weekends or vice versa.

Would love it if that kind was available for the W810i.

By the way, I don't have the phone as yet, but I think my wife is going to get me one for my birthday

Cheers!

Hi there,
Yes, I know of the recurrent alarms (I've been using the T610 until 2 months back when I lost it on a trip in Germany).

What I'd like is "Multiple" Alarma, each with a recurrent feature. This would mean tha for eg. I can have:

- one alarm to ring every working day at 2.30pm to check back on how the day in school was for kids when the get back,
- another alarm to ring every working day at 11.00am to order my lunch (got to order lunch before 11am, and I tend to forget about it on busy days).
- another alarm to ring every working day at 05.15am to wake me up
- another alarm to ring every weekend at 08.00am to wake me up!

You, see, with those intentions, and a single alarm, I'll have to keep resetting the time and the days it has to ring!

Thanks in advance for any other suggestions!

Cheers

What you can actually do is to use your Organizer. Go to Task and make a reminder for each task. As you know, if you only use the alarm feature, it won't even tell you what the alarm is for. When you use the "task" feature, you can describe the nature of the task. Hope that helps

> STEELE is on point.

But I understand what Paparazzi is requesting. I too need to do seperate alarms or tasks to manage my days. I'm wondering if there is a limit to what we can add, and I dont trust the new Sync Managers limited settings to what I have in Outlook 2003 & my W810 - its already duplicated phonebooks EVEN though I've set it NOT to update the phone.

SE We NEED a much more ADVANCE Calendar, Tasks, Events, Alarm function PLEASE!.

In the meantime we can probably also make a Note and set it to alarm when checking up on the kids' day at school, no?!

You cannot set up recurrent alarms in the phone itself.
You have to use a computer and the bundled sync software, SE PC suite.
Set up as many recurrent alarms in Outlook as you wish.
In PC suite change the calendar sync period for a longer one (it is around two weeks by default as I remember) and perform a synchronizing.
Recurrent alarms will be created in the phone.
I do this regularly, first sync is full sync so it is slow , but after that only synchronizes changes, so its fast.

Thanks Prom1.

The only limitation that i can see when i use Task as my recurrent reminder/alarm is that, you cannot choose a specific mp3 for that task/appointment. It's unchangeable. You can't use mp3s for the task sounds, in short. However, it's enough for me. I use the default recurrent alarm to wake me up in the morning. Then i use the Task Feature to reminder of my daily tasks

If you always have your mobile phone within your reach, the default sound will be enough. It's goona be challenging if you hide it in your bag or something.
