Hi again, Ok now I really don't get this. I set an alarm for a one-off, not recurring time. It went off yesterday and is still in the list. So I thought ok I could just edit it and make it go off another time but though I can edit the times and description I can't get it to work because it says it's not active. How do I make it active? What's the point of leaving an alarm in the list which has already gone off and cannot be made to go off again?
