TimeAlarms Repeat every 15 sec, but can't do daily basis

Hi, I have already uploaded successfully TimeAlarms library (together with other libraries) without errors.

This line code also worked fine:

Alarm.timerRepeat(10, Repeats);

However, other features such as below just returned no output as per the Serial output below:

Alarm.alarmRepeat(14,56,0, MorningAlarm);  // 8:30am every day
  Alarm.alarmRepeat(14,57,0,EveningAlarm);  // 5:45pm every day 
  Alarm.alarmRepeat(dowSunday,14,58,0,WeeklyAlarm);  // 8:30:30 every Saturday

Below is the serial output only on the 10 second timer. **How come other Alarm not working?**when I copied the code exactly as is from the net? Is my TimeAlarms library missing something?

RTC has set the system time
14:56:21
10 second timer
This timer only triggers once

How are you setting and maintaining the time in the program ?

Hi Sir, the RTC time has always been used by the Arduino by using the command SynchProvider and it worked fine. Also I only uncomment the timesetting only when I need to, and then commenting again so that the time will no longer reset every time I turned-off the power of my board. The serial output verifies that my time, date and year are okey, as per the above serial output.

//rtc.setDOW(SUNDAY);  [i](I had only "uncommented" this code and below codes once the last time I 
                                   corrected the RTC time.)[/i]
//rtc.setTime(12, 4, 0); //24-HR format
//rtc.setDate(20, 5, 2018); //DD, MM, YYYY

Please post a complete program that demonstrates the problem.

'Problem solved. The following were done:

  1. Use latest version of Arduino IDE 1.8.5 (Update patch if the board is just a clone of Arduino)
  2. Inside the void setup (), I tried to interchange some group of commands, that fixed the problem on
Alarm.alarmRepeat(21,33,0, DailyAlarm1);  // 7:30 every day
