Alarm Clock, WTF

[dgrobe2112]

Does not go off in the mornings.. i mean.. i have repeat set, and everything.. check mark is on.. it even confirms that the alarm is set for 10hrs from now. when it comes time to go off.. nothing..

unless i manually set it every night.. it dont go off.. i dont understand.. is there something i am doing wrong.. will advanced task killer be killing it?

I use mine every day, no problem. Are you setting the days to alarm?

 

[dgrobe2112]

i did a search, and found a couple.. but most didnt have any answers.. i do have advanced task killer.. thinking maybe that may be it.. so.. i cleared the check box for clock.. see what happens..

yea.. i have the repeat days set.. see what happens in the morning..

task killer is the culprit 99% of the time when dealing with the alarm not goin off.

, add the task to the ignore list or don't use them.

This.

Agreed, add the task to the ignore list or don't use them.

this..

That. It's common sense people. It's a task killer, don't want the task/app to be killed? UNCHECK IT THEN. And to the guy who's shouting out not to use task killers, you're probably one of the many with no common sense. I use ATK, and it works flawlessly.

This is why people should not be told to use ATK. It only helps an extremely small portion of users, and causes problems for the rest of the uneducated.

Dont use task killers!!!!!!

I use ATK and have no issues with alarms or anything else. It's the users fault for not paying attention to what's being killed.

 

[dgrobe2112]

yall were correct.. worked this morning.. i did uncheck it from my task killer.. and actually didnt use task killer at all yesterday after this thread.. and it worked this morning..

thanks again to all of you who helped out..

I had the same problem. I finally figured out my task killer was closing it. You have to diable it on your task killer and the alarm will work fine.
