OK, I believe I located the option to disable reminder sounds. You'd
think that Microsoft would have stored it under calendar options, since
it is a calendar option. Well, it's found by going to File, Options and
then Advanced.
Once you go to the "advanced" category, keep pressing the tab key until
you get to checkboxes, one for play reminder sounds and another for
showing reminders.

Ah, it sounds like holidays were downloaded into your Outlook
calendar, which is an option but which shouldn't have happened
automatically, as far as I know.
I don't believe that there is a way to delete all of the holidays
stored in your calendar with one command. However, you can tell
Outlook to not play the reminder sound. Here is how to do this.
From the main Outlook window, press alt-F for the file menu (backstage
view, to be technical.)
Arrow down to options and press enter.
You will be in a list of categories.
In this list, press down arrow until you hear the word "calendar."
Don't press enter at this point; rather, press the tab key to move
through the plethora of calendar options.
Move to the "default reminders" checkbox and press the spacebar to
uncheck the checkbox.
Press enter and your problem should be fixed.

Hi,
I'm using a Windows 7 64-bit laptop with ie 11 and latest Firefox. I
have
all updates. Since We 9.1, I continually get the reminder chime when
I go
into my inbox and just want to read email. I mean, I don't mind a
reminder
once but I get them consistently even when I'm overdue. They pop up
and the
chime goes off and I'd just like to be able to control when I'm
nagged about
something. Where do I go to take charge of this???
Thank you! I'll remind you same time tomorrow if I hear nothing!
