I am running Outlook 2007 (Office 2007) on a new Widows 7 computer.  Had some 
problems with initial Outlook migration and PDA snyc, but those seem to be 
resolved after I erased all historical calendar data and started new with 
future appointments only on the PC and PDA both.  Outlook syncs perfectly 
with my PDA via Bluetooth, including reminders, which work normally on the 
PDA, but no reminders appear in Outlook.

I'm aware of the change to keep the reminder screen out of sight (and out of 
mind, an illogical change in my opinion) but even when I bring it forward on 
the screen at a time when it should show a reminder, it is blank.  Settings 
are checked for both sound and visible reminder alerts, but neither are 
operative.

Have you tried a Diagnostic Repair of Office.

I'm having basically the same problem only it's on my PC (I don't have a PDA 
etc).  I'm running Windows XP because I don't like Vista or Windows 7.  I 
have Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007.  I recently had to format and 
reinstall all my software due to a disk failure.  My reminders were working 
but have quit.  I've run the Diagnostic repair at least 5 times and it finds 
no problems and does no good.  I've tried the Work arounds on the website to 
cleanreminders and resetfolders and neither one did any good.  I've 
uninstalled Outlook and reinstalled it and nothing changed.  Is there 
ANYTHING else that I can do.  I've missed 3 regular appointments and a 
doctor's appointment because I depend on the reminders and can't seem to get 
used to the fact that they are not working.
