Remove all birthday reminders with Filter feature
To remove all birthday reminders from a certain Calendar folder in Microsoft Outlook, you can do as following steps:
Step 1: Open the Calendar folder you will remove all birthday reminders from, and then change its view with clicking the "Change View" > "List" on the "View" tab.
Note: In Outlook 2007, you need to click the "View" > "Current View" > "All Appointments".
Step 2: Click the "View Settings" button on the "View" tab.
Note: In Outlook 2007, click the "View" > "Current View" > "Customize Current View".
Step 3: In the popping up dialog box, click the "Filter" button.
Step 3: In the Filter dialog box, type the "Birthday" in the "Search for the word(s)" box under "Appointments and Meetings" tab, keep "subject field only "selected in the "In" box, and click the "OK" button.
Step 4: Now you get back to the first dialog box, go on to click the "Group By "button.
Step 5: In the Group By dialog box, click the "Group items by" box, specify the "Reminder" from the drop down list, and click the "OK" button.
Step 6: Click the "OK" button to close the first dialog box.
At present, only birthday appointments display in the Calendar folder, and all birthday appointments are grouped into Reminder: Yes group and Reminder: No group.
Note: If there is no Reminder: No group in this Calendar folder, just open one birthday appointment and "remove its reminder".
Step 7: Click to select the group name of "Reminder: Yes", then drag it and move to the "Reminder: No" group.
Up to now, all birthday reminders are removed from the specified Calendar folder in Outlook at once.
