It doesn't sound like you are using the wrong folder for the appointments.

When you make a change on a current appointment after the reminder fired and
save it, the time for the reminder is passed so it won't fire again. If you
dismiss the reminder, its turned off and you need to reset the reminder for
the recurrences.

Does it work correctly if you create the appointment as recurring from the
start?
