Clock changes time randomly

Has any one had any issues with their clock changing time randomly on their iphone 5c? it will go up in time then back several times during the day. I am the only one in the house that this is happening to

If "Automatic Time" is turned on in Settings, the time is coming from the cell towers. Contact the carrier to address.

IMac Clock Changing to Random Time

After turning on my iMac, sometimes the clock displays a random time, nowhere close to the current time in my area. I have the clock auto set on which syncs through the internet, but that does not seems to help at all, in fact, i think it syncs a different time zone than i have set. But the catch is that once i go to the clock menu to reset the time, the clock goes back to my time zone. What could be causing this?

Which time server are you using? Apple Asia would seem to be the appropriate one for you.
I would make sure that your time zone & city and time server are setup appropriately for your area and see what happens. Probably wouldn't hurt to restart as well.

Pre Clock changing time - Alarms repeating

I have about 10 daily alarms set on my Pre. I've kept to this alarm schedule for about 2 months now. After update 1.4 came out a lot of my alarms would go off twice within a minute. It seems as though my clock ticks back a minute every few hours. I'm not sure if this is to fix the previous problem of the time wandering off by as much as 7 minutes like my phone was doing before version 1.4. This double alarm issue is getting to be rather annoying.
eg: I have an alarm set for 12:30. The alarm goes off so I pick up my phone to dismiss it. When I look at the phone the time says 12:30, then jumps back to 12:29. I dismiss the alarm only to have it go off again when the clock says 12:30 again in a minute.
Please help as I have to keep to this schedule for another 4 months or so.

You're very welcome--- In fact, these are very GOOD questions and I happen to have an answer to each of them.
For Question 1. Normally , in the calendar they only ask for the time, not the time zone. So, the times will not change in your calendar unless you adjust them yourself.
Question 2. As in Question 1, You will have to adjust the time in your calendar to whatever time zone you are in.
Question 3. If you manually set your alarm to a specific time and you change time zones, your alarm will NOT adjust to the time zone you are in. That will only happen if you have the time zone set to automatic.
Lastly, If you do not have your time zone set to automatic then your time will not adjust at all. Therefore, you will not lose/gain any seconds.
Hope I have answered all of your questions that you have for me today.
I'm waiting on your reply!

Iphone 5 changes time randomly.. need urgent help!!

hi everybody .. i need urgent help to fix the problem of my iphone 5 ( IOS 7, Vodafone Germany) .. 2 weeks ago i noticed that the time on iphone was completely wrong and not related even to other time zones .. sometimes it freezed at the same minute for 1 hour .. sometimes it ran anticlockwise.. i switched off the automatic time setting..i made reset and erased all contents and reloaded all configuration from iCloud..the same problem.. i registered it as new iPhone .. no improvement... i switched off the WIFI..3G...i made reset using iTunes .. same error. same error... i took it to Apple store in Dresden- Germany and demostrated the problem there .. they told me that the problem beyond their knowledge and i have to contact apple support ... i sent the iPhone to Apple support in Netherland ... they sent it back on the next day coz they were not able to reproduce the problem...after regestering the iPhone again with my ID.. the same problem ... it's catastrophic coz many functions are time dependent (imessege, Calender, Email, etc.. )..and i cannot rely on my iPhone anymore... has anybody encountered the same problem in germany... and what is the solution?

If the phone is failing to charge, then there are three possibilities -
1) The charging cable is defective - does it work with anything else?
2) The power source is defective - unlikely since you have tried different ones with same result.
3) The phone has a hardware failure - which means you need to take to an Apple store or call them up for advice.

Odd clock drift since summer time clock change

This is a weird one. Since the clocks changed back for daylight savings time (here in the UK, on Sunday morning from BST to GMT) I've been getting a strange error: while I'm editing a file in vi(1), occasionally when I come to save it tells me the file has changed on disk (it hasn't).
I thought I was going mad until a colleague said he's seen the same warnings on his machine in Eclipse. It seems to me like the clock is constantly drifting/being adjusted - I'm syncing with NTP to time.euro.apple.com, and I am seeing a lot of NTP updates in the logs:
system.log:Nov 2 19:18:26 mightymac ntpd[34353]: time reset +0.280424 s
system.log:Nov 2 20:26:10 mightymac ntpd[34353]: time reset -0.857206 s

system.log:Nov 2 21:01:15 mightymac ntpd[34353]: time reset +0.974976 s

system.log:Nov 2 23:34:56 mightymac ntpd[34353]: time reset +0.960510 s

system.log:Nov 3 10:07:17 mightymac ntpd[34353]: time reset +0.491741 s
These are big jumps - a second, half a second, much more than I'd expect to see. Given it's happening on a colleagues machine we can rule out my clock battery or other local hardware/software issues, it's happening both when I'm at work and at home (on two different networks), and it's only happening since the summer time change on Sunday.
Has anyone else seen this? This is on 10.6.4, on two machines that have not been rebooted since the clocks changed.

I have a similar problem - when I start up my clock has advanced about 13 hours. It seems to have been doing this since daylight savings changed. It has the right time zone and I have unlinked synchronisation but it keeps happening even when it is locked.

HT4623 HOW TO CHANGE TIME ON MY IPHONE 3GS I HAD UPGRATED IT TO 6.1.3 WORLD CLOCK AND ACTUAL TIMING IS DIFFRENT

how to change time on iphone 3gs
world clock n actual timing is different

That's because iTunes 11 requires Snow Leopard or higher.

CDX-GT565UP clock changes constantly

Had this player for some time. I listened to AM radio (news junkie) most of the time. Then I started listening to FM radio. Now the clock will constantly change time. I can set it to say12:15 then sometime later it will be some random time like 10:27 or 8:06 or 11:51. Anything but what it should be. It could take 10 minutes to change or 2 hours or it will change to 4 different times in 1 hour. There is no pattern that I can tell.
This time change does NOT occur when I'm listening to any source other than FM. It ONLY happens while listening to FM.
Any ideas ? ? ?
I'm old. I was trained on vacuum tubes. Everything I've worked on is either in the museum or on the History Channel.

You said...
This issue will occur if leads are not matched correctly with the car's accessory power connector. Make sure that they are matched correctly.
Exactly what leads are you referring to? Got a diagram?
To further clarify my problem further, the clock changes the time even thought I never turn off the car
Just today, during a 2 hour trip the clock changed 3 tmes.
I never turned off the car.

2nd Gen iTouch Date/Time Randomly reseting?

Using 2.2 firmware with 32GB iTouch the system date and time get set to some random new date time from past.
1) So far the random date-time has always been in the past.
2) Somehow related to iTouch being connected to PC.
3) Might be related to Sync [but not always].
4) Might be related to Vista going into sleep mode while iTouch is connected.
Any fixes or work-arounds?

I have the exact same problem and I have narrowed it down to the corruption occurring after my PC goes into sleep mode. I get the same failure on my two machines. One is a desktop running Vista and the other is a Thinkpad running Windows XP. I also discovered that I did not have a problem using my laptop to charge my ITouch until I loaded it with ITunes. I deliberately put it into sleep mode before loading ITunes and it worked fine when it came out of sleep mode. I then loaded it with ITunes today to see what would happen and sure enough the clock and time got reset to a random date and time once it came out of sleep mode. I have had this problem with the 2.1 and the 2.2 level of code on the ITouch with my Vista machine and it was only today that I tried my experiment with my laptop machine. I hope that Apple can come up with a fix soon, as this problem is very annoying, since I cannot leave my Itouch connected for any length of time without the clock going bonkers.

Why automatically [automatically change time] setting in win8?!!

in win8 that I have been install it on my macbook pro, system time automatically change after each time i set correct local time.
i was disable automatic time in win8 configuration, but that's not work.
i have a same problem with my previews system between osx 10.7 vs win7. on that case win7 time was ok, but osx time wrong.i try several times to set osx time but each time changed time after restart. I was disable all automatically options from both OS but my problem not solved.
now i need a help to manual set time in osx 10.8&win8 without automatically change...

The problem isn't so much that the time is changing as much as how Windows and OS X deal with time. It will never be correct for both. Windows sets your internal clock to "local time" which is the actual time you would use. OS X uses a Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) offset. Basically, OS X will set your internal clock to Greenwich Mean Time and then, based on your geographic location, it will add the correct number of hours based on your time zone. So, for OS X, your internal clock will always be the same time regardless of where you are in the world and the OS adjusts it to display the correct time. Windows actually sets your internal clock to your actual time.
So there is no way to have them both be correct... especially if you turn off auto updating. If OS X was the last OS to set the time (so your internal clock would be set to GMT) and you switch to Windows (this should only happen with BootCamp by the way) Windows will display the GMT (which would not be correct for your local time). Likewise, if Windows were the last OS to set your internal clock (so it would be set to your local time), when you switched back to OS X, OS X would "think" the internal clock is set to GMT and apply an offset so it would be however many hours your are from the GMT timezone hours off.

6300 - Changing Time Zone (GMT+1) Changes All Cale...

I have a 6300 and a calendar full of important meetings and so on.
Last weekend we went on to GMT+1 hour (British Summer Time).
Changing the time settings in the phone to "GMT+1" changes all the calendar times to +1 hour as well.
Why does the phone do this (is this dumb or what !) ?
How can I get the phone NOT to change the calendar times whilst changing the time of day ?
Good wishes to all.

Google calendar has resolved this problem for me by allowing Time Zone entries for Calendar items.
1. I now enter calendar entries with the local time in my Google Travel calendar.
2. I then duplicate the entry in my Google personal calendar and edit this entry to identify the destination Time Zone.
3. I then allow Google calendar to update my Outlook calendar. Entries there will show up with the destination time.
e,g. a flight departure from Madrid is scheduled for 6pm. It will show in my Google personal calendar and in my Outlook calendar as 2am the next day. It will still show in the Travel calendar as 6pm.
4. I let Ovi Suite synchronize my Nokia phone calendar with Outlook which inserts all entries with times for the appropriate time zone e.g. 2am in Madrid.
5. Now I no longer need to disable automatic Time Zone adjustment in my phone AND lie to the phone that I have NOT changed time zones whenever I change my phone clock for a new country (or Time Zone). In the Madrid example, my calendar entries while in Canada will show a 2am departure and when in Madrid will show a 6pm departure (local time).
Some benefits are:
1. Calendar times will show the local time for all entries.
2. No more calls home at 2am because I forgot the Time Zone differential.
3. No more missed appointments because I made an incorrect time adjustment.
3. Automatic Time Zone correction means my phone is always synchronized with local time. This is significant since I have observed that the phone's internal clock tends to drift. Automatic synchronization automaticallt corrects this.
Points to Consider:
1. Google is my primary calendar because I can control it's directionality.
2. Entries in my Google Travel calendar allow me to see the unadjusted times of Calendar entries, e.g. my Madrid flight is at 6pm. Since Google allows you to see multiple calendars simultaneously, I can see events with both destination and home times.
3. Google will only update one calendar to Outlook (my personal calendar) which is why the Time Zone adjusted times are updated in my Google personal calendar and then to Outlook.
4. Ovi Suite has insufficient controls on updates and sometimes will reinstall Outllok entries which have been deleted or changed. Because Outlook cannot update the Google calendars it or the Nokia calendar cannot corrupt my master calendar on Google.
5. This may not resolve all the convoluted Time Zone boundaries experience in the USA but should help.
6. Have had no problem with DST but also am not dealing with the convoluted Time Zone boundaries experience in the USA.
7. Before and currently I stll place a copy of the input data in the Description section of my Google calendar entries. These will show up in the Nokia Description unadjusted and immune from change due to outside causes.

Since loading mavericks my calendar posts events one hour late. That is, if mtg invite is for 9am it posts at 10am. my pc clock and time zone are correct.

Hey Armando Stettner,
Thanks for the question, and what a great question it is!
With time zone support on, you can edit an individual event and change the time zone for that event. This list will include options for your default time zones, UTC, and "floating" - the latter of which is what you are looking for. Floating changes the event to occur at the specified time, local time.
For information on changing an event's time zone, see the following resource:
Calendar: Change an event’s time zone

I look forward to hearing how this works for you.
Cheers!

[E61i] Alarm-Clock / buzzer / timer doesn't work anymore
Hey there, I use an E61i with the newest firmware and since some months ago (it seems ~the installation of the new firmware) my alarm clock sounds goes off, but not hearable. It's not loud, it is almost not even hearable if you're near to it.
All my other sounds work just fine, call rings, sms notification, ringtones, music, all fine.
But just the alarm clock doesn't work.
I checked ALL options at least twice, I tried to change almost every option and made several test rounds concerning the alarm clock. I just don't know what happened, why it happened and how I can repair it.
I can provide you with more information, what do you need?
Thanks in advance & kind regards.

No idea anyone?
Should I post it in another forum?

My iPhone 5 changing times

My iPhone 5 display randomly changes time. Never by a complete hour. Sometimes by 27 minutes oy 43 minutes. Just completely random. Anyone having the same issues?

Common problem for iPhone5's on the Verizon network. Both Apple and Verizon are aware of it. CNET has already published an article about the issue. Until they fix it, try turning your LTE off and leave it off. Since making that change, neither of my two 5's have had any issues.

Reminders app issue following the clock change

Hi
I've seen some Q10 users reporting this same issue but not for the Z10 but with no solution yet. Since the clocks changed and we moved into Daylight Saving Time, I've found an issue with my Reminders app. All reminders (including those set before and after the clock change) flash up one hour before the time I've set it for. The clock is correct, as is the timezone, and the lock screen (which shows the next event) shows it at the correct time - it's the physical reminder which is one hour out.
I've tried a hard re-set, pulling the battery out, connecting to the BB Link on my laptop but nothing has sorted out. I don't know if this is related or not but my phone also did not automatically update the timezone following my return from a trip away (even though it was set to automatically update). I manually changed it and it now shows correctly as 'Dubline, London). But, if I turn the 'automatically update timezone' off, and then back on again, the phone automatically shows as Brussels time ie. one hour ahead. As with the above issue, phone re-sets did not resolve this issue.
Any advice on either, or both, issues would be much appreciated.
Many thanks
