How do I make calender alarms vibrate?

Hi,

I make lots of Calender entries on my my phone because if I don't I forget everything!

My problem is that I can no longer make the phone vibrate when calender alarms go off.

I got my N6600 last week and I know it worked at the beginning, I'm sure because I checked it. I need to do this because I don't want to hear the phone when the alarm goes off, I don't need to because it's always in my pocket. I just want it to vibrate.

For various reasons other, (freezing, hanging) I changed the phone today and I can't make the new one vibrate for calender alarms either. It works for everything else.

What am I doing wrong? I have tried every possible combination in Profiles.

I am wondering if I installed another bit of software that did it, but I can't remember.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Jamil.

I have found a way to do it - I had to use the Pager profile. I thought I had tried it, but obviously hadn't.

The only problem is that now I don't get the day/date at the top of the screen because it just says Pager. I guess that will have to do.

Using the successful Pager parameters in the General profile I could get the phone to vibrate only once, which I would probably miss.

D A M N, I'm fussy!
