Google Calendar

Hi.

I use Google Calendar all the time. I sync it with the stock calendar app on my SGSII.

However something really annoys me: every event you add, by default gives an alert/notification 10 minutes before hand.

So each time I make an event I have to manually disable the 10 minute alert.

Does anyone know a way to set the defaults on Google Calendar? So that events do not have alerts.
 
You'll need to log into your calendar in a web browser.

To change your default notification settings, follow these steps:

  1. In the calendar list on the left, move your mouse over the appropriate calendar and click the drop-down arrow that appears, then select Notifications. (Alternatively, click the drop-down arrow next to My calendars or Other calendars, choose Settings, then click the Notifications link next to the appropriate calendar.)
  2. In the Event reminders section, select the reminder method from the drop-down menu and enter the corresponding reminder time (between five minutes and four weeks). If you'd like to add additional default reminders, simply click Add a reminder.
  3. You can also choose to be notified of specific activities on the calendar by selecting the appropriate options in the Choose how you would like to be notified section.
Once you've made the appropriate changes to your default settings, click Save.
Please note that when you make changes to the reminder settings for events on your calendar, the changes will only apply to you. Invited guests or those who have access to the events will receive reminders according to their own Google Calendar reminder settings.
