Setting Reminders on Specific Events
When the default reminders won’t work for a specific event, you can set different values for that event only.
Here’s How
Create an event or open an existing event by double-clicking it in the calendar.
In the event editor, expand the Reminder section.
The area below expands to show the default reminder options.
Change the values for your reminders.
Time - the time you want your first reminder to occur. You can specify No Reminder.
Again - the time you want a second reminder to occur. You can specify No Reminder.
Via - indicate how you want to receive your reminders.
Note: Your email choices are those listed in your Yahoo! account. To add or remove addresses, click the gear button to open your account page. On your account page, click the Update your contact information link, make your changes, then click Save.
Click the Save button to save your settings.
What’s Next
Set your reminder defaults using values that you want applied most often. When you add a new event, your reminders are taken care of, and you can easily change them for specific events.
