My Reminders app is showing 6 reminders, but as far as I know, I have none. I've checked the completed file...checked in Ical on the Mac....tried everytrhing I know & looked up vaious forum answers, but no luck getting these deleted. Any ideas?

Reminders don't appear in iCal. They appear in the Reminders app in Mountain Lion. If you have iCloud enabled, you could always log into iCloud.com – bassplayer7 Jan 12 at 0:04
What happens when you try to delete the reminders? – Hand-E-Food Jan 14 at 22:00

I've had this issue before. Turn off all reminders and turn them back on to reset the reminder data.

  1. Go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
  2. For each listed account, select it and switch Reminders to OFF.
  3. Restart your iPhone for good measure.
  4. Go to Settings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
  5. for each desired account, select it and switch Reminders to ON.

Just tried that & they are still there. The closest Apple store is a 56 hour round trip, but the next time I'm in the vicinity, I'll stop in & try the genius bar. Thanks – Randy Phillips Jan 14 at 14:16
