Calendar Reminder Time Way Off - Set to 500, 600, or 700 minutes

I am syncing my calendar with my GroupWise calendar through the Desktop manager software and the usb connection. I totally wiped my curve back to factory defaults and everytime I sync my calendar the reminder time is always at 500 minutes or longer. I have the default reminder set to 5 minutes in the general optins.  I want to be reminded 5 minutes before the appointment, not 500 or 600 or 700. I get reminders for appointments hours before they are going to happen. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Please help. It is very annoying. Thanks.

Re: Calendar Reminder Time Way Off - Set to 500, 600, or 700 minutes

I too am having this problem and it is a major one.  The notifications are completly off by more than 500+ minutes.  The reminder is supposed to be 10 minutes prior to the meeting.

 

I have pulled battery, problem is still here.

I have wiped the unit clean, problem is still here.

I checked the time zone, it is correct and the problem is still here.

I have had my IT people look at it, they can not figure it out and the problem is still here.

 

Please note I sync with Groupwise 8 using Desktop Manager version 5 and sync w/USB.  Also, it is important to note that I have tried older versions on GW and DM but the problem remains.  Help....
