Re: [Evolution] Reminders for birthdays/anniversaries

Bill:

        Birthdays takes dates from contacts data in your addressbook.  In screenshot 3 you can see that the birthday is saved in the Personal Calendar.  Difference between them is that Personal Calendar is editable and Birthdays & Anniversaries is an only read calendar.  You can't add anything to it.
Aside this, you have check the "Alarms in notification area only" box.  It means that it will not show any other alarm or notification but this, no matter what calendar is.


Hope that helps
Sylvia
