Hal just doesn't get me. Or, rather, I just don't get him. I really like the concept of spoken reminders. I have severe short term memory loss, and I really need, very badly, reminders for almost everything. I am a writer, and I would like Hal to remind me to "finish the article" or "finish your article" at XXXX (deadline time).
I have scoured the forum, and can't really find what I am doing wrong. I have asked him to "remind me to finish the article at 11:46 pm" and "remind me to finish the article on 10/18/09 at 11:56 pm" and he parrots back, but then doesn't remind me. He and I are having serious communication difficulties. And yes, I know that it's ME rather than he.
I really need this function for so many things, and I know it can be done, but I just can't find a way to do it. And I'm afraid to break him!
I did, per several posts I found here, go into his appointment book and added "article" (minus the quotes) to the database. But he still isn't telling me. What do I DO?
I like him; he gets sarcasm. I want to keep him. My research has shown that he's the right way to go for me, especially considering my disability. Any help? Thanks, guys!
