Calendar resetting to GMT
Events in my calendar are changing from Eastern time to GMT. This occurs when I open the event after I have saved the event in iCal. I believe I have narrowed it down to events recorded against my gmail calendar.
Any suggestions on how to prevent this from occurring? I'm missing meetings.
Thanks.
Too bad it didn't work.
I did a search too and found this Discussion thread:
How do I stop iCal from changing my gCal events to UTC time zone when entering new events?
Ignore the green "answer" part because it doesn't apply to 10.6.8. Instead, do what signenoerly suggest:
I had the same problem.
When I entered an event in Calendar for my google calendar it switched to UTC.
What I did was:
Go to the Preferences in calendar: Preferences > Advanced > uncheck "Turn on timezone support"
After doing that it all worked like a time.
A few people have suggested that this also plays a part in it, but it doesn't influence anything on my part:
System Preferences > Date & time: "Set date and time automatically". For me it doesn't matter if this i checked or unchecked. It works either way.

TS4337 Why are the colors for my calendar reseting to a color I never chose?
Why are the colors for my calendar in iCal reseting to a color I never chose? It won't stay blue when I choose that color and keeps changing to a custom lavendar color on its own.... Incredibly annoying...
There doesn't seem to be a one-size-fits-all answer, because what works for one printer doesn't necessarily work for another, and I don't have your printer so I can't advise on specifics...
However, perhaps we can discover a set of settings that will work...
If you File - Print, choose Photoshop Manages Colors, in the Printer Profile section do you see profiles specific to your printer (e.g., with the name Kodak in them)?
If so, choose one of them that seems appropriate given the paper you're using.
If not, try choosing sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
Now, before you continue, press the [Print Settings...] button. This brings up the printer driver dialog. You may have to go through [Advanced] buttons or whatever, but what you're looking to do here is to disable the printer driver's color management logic. In other words, if you can find a color-management / ICC profile handling section, set it to "no color management" or equivalent. OK back out to Photoshop's print dialog, then press [Print].
The key here is that if Photoshop manages the color transforms, the printer driver should not be set to do so - or vice versa.
If you're presented with the printer driver's dialog again, double check that the settings you chose above are still set, for good measure, and try a test print.

Time Zone issue in the calendar.
ChurchGurl,
I had the same problem on my newly acquired iPhone 6 as well as my slightly older iPad Mini (2), but the problem did not start until after I set up my iPhone 6 recently. The link (iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time - Apple Support) in Jason's response above is good advice and should fix the problem, but then your phone will not automatically adjust time zones if you go from one time zone to another. That may not be a problem much, or at all depending on how much you travel. Something else I noticed is that you are specifically referring to using the Calendar App. Be sure to check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Time Zone Override (near the bottom under the "Calendars" section). If Time Zone Override is turned off, "events will display according to the time zone of your current location." I don't know for sure if the "location" it's talking about is determined by the "Time & Date" settings mentioned in Jason's response or some other calculation (GPS, Cell Signal, etc.). I'm thinking that if you turn off the feature to automatically set your time zone, it may affect your calendar as well.
Possible Alternative Solution...
My iPhone and iPad calenders sync with my Google Calendar, so this may be a whole different circumstance, although I encountered the same problem you're having where any appointments I created on my iPhone 6 (and suddenly on my iPad Mini as well, which created events properly before) listed the GMT Time Zone instead of my own. I checked the settings mentioned above, and checked the Calendar Time Zone settings directly in my Google account and all was correct... except for the iOS Time Zone issue displayed on the iOS Calendar. So, I created a new event in the iOS Calendar, and when I set the time for the event I made sure to change the Time Zone setting to my current/correct Time Zone, and then hit Done. After doing this a couple of times and changing/correcting the Time Zone each time I created the new appointment, it now uses the correct Time Zone for new events on both my iPhone 6 and on the iPad Mini as well, as if it synchronized the two back to the correct Calendar Time Zone settings. I suspect it had something to do with the fact that I set up a new iPhone on my account recently, but I don't know for sure. One question for you is whether you set up, restored, or added any new iOS devices to your account recently. It may or may not make a difference, but it's worth checking into. Good luck! -
I just noticed today that my calendar suddenly erased all my entries, and I'm now unable to entere them in. The + sign in the upper right of the screen is greyed out and I can't use it.
Last week I had all my contacts evaporate as well. This was about a week after "upgrading" to the new iOS 7. What's going on with my calendar? I haven't tried syncing my phone to my computer yet, but am about to try that as soon as I've finished typing this. Please help.Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, but it didn't help. I finally got a customer service "specialist" from Verizon on the line, and ended up going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. After doing that the phone powered off and then back on. It reset all my settings, but didn't erase any of my data. All my calendar events magically came back, and all my contacts magically returned as well. What a relief!!! I've had to re-select the ringtones I want, and reselect the wallpaper pictures I had set for my lock screen and home screen. But otherwise this issue is now resolved!!!
Not sure why this happened. Any speculation or thoughts? Thanks again. Hope this helps someone else if they have the same issue. -
When entering a new event onto the calendar on my iPhone 5C, I select a time (in my time zone - which is selected, as far as I can tell, in every place it appears as a choice). The event shows at the selected time and a second later the GMT time shows in parentheses underneath the event title. When I go to edit, the time appears as GMT. I can change it in the edit screen and it works, but how can I get it to automatically show the right time - as it has done until I installed the latest upgrade.
Thanks.Hi b_e_sutton,
You may need to disable Time Zone Support in Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

IOS8 changes calendar entries to GMT
My new iPod Touch 5 w/iOS8.1.2 adds the time in GMT (UTC) to all new calendar entries. It displays the Event, the Date, the Time, and the the time with "(GMT)" following. The latter time is indeed expressed in GMT (UTC), that is, 8 hours ahead of USA Pacific Time. If I go into the "edit" screen for the calendar entry, the time is expressed in GMT (only). I have to change the time to the correct local time and edit "GMT," replacing it with the name of a town on the west coast of USA (like "Cupertino"). Once this is done the calendar entry is corrected and it stays corrected—doesn't go back to GMT. This occurs only for new entries—old calendar entries "inherited" from my former iPod Touch 4. Is there something I need to delete or change in the iPod 5 to get this unwanted "feature" to stop?
JeremyWas literally on here looking up the SAME EXACT problem!! I have my time zone set to Central, time zone support ON set to Chicago but it still has not fixed it. And I had it turned OFF as well. Anxious to hear what the responses are!

When I create a calendar event from my iPhone 5s in Central Time and save it, it changes it to GMT. Only happens when I create one on my phone but not in iCal on my Mac. My default time zone is set for Central Time. Any suggestions? It is really messing up my schedule.

Hi Apple. I was using my new iPhone 4S and I accidentally synced it with my iMac. Almost everything that I didn't want to sync, SYNCED, like my calendar, music, and more. I already took out all of it, except for the calendar events. Is there any way that I can delete all the events fast from my brand-new and gorgeous iPhone 4S.
I have the same problem, ALL my contacts, etc. were transferred to my new I Phone 4S! I don't want them there and don't know how to get them off my phone, when I try it tells me "It can't because they are came from my old phone which synced with my computer! Frustrating, if you get an answer to this can you please share with me?
thanks! -
Calendar resets to dec 31, 1969
Everytime I shutdown/ restart, iCal and computer's date and time reset to 1969. I have to reset the date and time everytime. Any ideas why?
iBook Mac OS X (10.4.4)Could be something to do with the small battery on the motherboard that provides power to retain this type of data. You should get this checked-out.

Hi-
I have a new iPhone 5. For some reason, when I received messages they are showing up as the GMT time zone, even though the time on my phone is set to EST.
Anyone know how to change this?

Calendar Settings reset after reboot
Hi,
Could anybody please check if you have the same issue on your phone?
Sony Calendar resets settings after reboot.
For example, if I set "Week starts on" = "Monday" and reboot the phone, this settings will be back to "Sunday" (which is the default).
I am now running Calendar 20.0.A.2.5, but I believe this bug was there before as well (even on my old Xperia V, I believe)
P.S. I found this topic, but either I didn't understand the solution correctly or it doesn't work for me... I tried to disable the Calendar app, but it didn't help in any way...
Solved!
Go to Solution.I will forward this internally for further investigation. I will update you as soon as i have more information.
But as a possible workaround, i suspect you have selected a country/region under Settings -> Language & input -> Language where the week normally is set to start on Sunday like English US? If you are in the Netherlands but want the phone on english you could try setting it to English UK instead to avoid this until i have more information.

GMT Calendar printing out time as IST
Can anyone tell me why the following is happening please. I know there are always people asking about dates/times/timezones etc but i haven't seen anyone with this problem. so i'll ask it.....
I'm creating a calendar with the GMT timezone. If the calendar is set to a date that is in daylight savings time it prints out the date with the timezone IST, but if the date is not in daylight savings time the date is GMT.
How can i make it print the date with GMT ?
I'm in Dublin, working on NT, with jdk1.3.1
here's the code snippets if it helps:
String time = "2003.08.13 AD 11:10:00.802 GMT";
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd G HH:mm:ss.SSS z");
Date temptime = sdf.parse(time);
cal.setTime(temptime );
temptime= cal.getTime();
System.out.println("temptime = "+temptime);
And here's the output:
Wed Aug 13 12:10:00 IST 2003Hi "mazzam3",
If you look at the source code for the "SimpleDateFormat" class, you will see that it uses the default time zone. So even though you have ensured that your "Calendar" instance is using the correct time zone, your "SimpleDateFormat" instance is not. What I usually do is set the default time zone for the JVM before I start working with dates and times -- that way I know that all date and time related classes are using the same time zone. So I guess in your case, I suggest setting the default time zone to GMT.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Avi. -
