Date & Time changed when sync

When I connected my touch to PC, and sync, touch's date & time would change to a early date & time, most of time this would happen.
Is there anyone knows what happens?
Thanks!!

Hello
this is a common problem with the ipod touch. I have it, and many others on the forum have it. It's nothing to do with the ipod, so restoring it will do nothing.
some think that it is quicktime, others itunes.
The only way i have found to stop it is to only plug the ipod in while itunes is closed.
thanks

Calendar time changed when sync between itouch and mac

7:30am event on my mac changes to 4:30am on my itouch. Everything is 3 hrs early! I am sure time zone is right. Does anyone know what's the problem? Thanks.

I have had same issue & the Apple store even swapped my Touch over lst week, with no change in result. However, I found this today in one of the forum threads:

Date/Time erros when working with Database Connectivity toolkit

Hi!,
We are observing errors with date/time when working with LV. The error occurs when the system datetime format is set such that day precedes month (e.g. dd/mm/yyyy). Our VI uses LV 7.1, Database Connectivity 1.0 and SQL Server 2000 on a Win2000 machine.
Problem details
Our database in SQL server has a table having columns with data type "datetime"
If the system date format (as set in control panel) is "mm/dd/yyyy", the 'insert into database' vi works fine. This function inserts the date and time (among other things) into the above mentioned table.
However, when the system datetime is set to dd/mm/yyyy we start receiving error that date and time is beyond range for dates in which the date had the day field greater than 12 (e.g. 23/10/2005). With the same settings, if the date is such that day field is equal or less than 12 (e.g. 03/10/2005), we do not receive an error but the date is interpreted as 10 March 2005 rather than 03 September 2005.
Clearly LV (or is it SQL) is mistaking the day field as month.
We have taken care that when sending and receiving date, the format date and time string is set as per system settings.
Thus, if system setting is "dd/mm/yyyy" our format string is "%d/%m/%Y"
And if the setting is "mm/dd/yyyy" our format string is"%m/%d/%Y"
Any help on problem cause and cure is welcome.
Thanks,

Hi Xu,
You answer led me to some very interesting fact finding on how SQL server handles date and time. I have attached a zip file which contains webpages that throw more light on this issue.
The attached pages tell me that SQL has an inbuilt date/time reference format. The default in mm/dd/yyyy. Which explains why my VI worked when I used that format to write to SQL.
However there is a catch:
SQL expects the date/time to be in its inbuilt reference format when you WRITE data to SQL. If the date/time is in a different format, better tell SQL about it by using say the SET command you mentioned.
BUT what about the date/time format when you are reading data from SQL?
Our finding is that SQL sends date/time string in the system date format when you READ from SQL !!! That is very surprising behaviour (why differentiate between write and read?).
Is our finding correct?
So, we adopted the following simple strategy (yet to be fully tested):
1) Whenever we write date/time to SQL, the string is formatted as mm/dd/yyyy. Presently, the user's SQL server is in the default state. Caveat is that if the user changes SQL date/time from default (which is mm/dd/yyyy) to anything else, our software will give errors. But then he changed it ;-)
2) When we read date/time from SQL we format the string as per system date/time format.
I know this is not very robust coding. But assuming the user keeps his SQL in the current setting, should we expect smooth working?
In other words, are there any errors and/or flaws in our strategy?
Thanks,
Gurdas

N8 calendar times change when in new time zone

How do you stop the calendar times changing when you enter a new time zone? This is very frustrating, particularly when the calendar contains flight times etc which you have entered in the local time zone of place of departure. Then when you move into that time zone it automatically changes every calendar entry! Annoying! I realise I can deselect automatic time zones, but then I'm guessing when I do change the time zone manually to where I am (so that it shows the time of day, and I can set an alarm to wake me up, etc!!!) then the same thing will happen - all my calendar entries will change. Hope someone has worked it out already.

the times are stored on the phone in absolute time, lets call it gmt. they are then displayed on your handset in local time.
the times aren't actually changing as you change time zones. they are very much staying the same.
to achieve what you re after you are just going to have to enter the times in one of the text fields.
There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

Date/time resets when battery runs out on E51

Any ideeas how to solve the problem?

There is a little auxilliary in the phone. This is the battery that keeps the clock going when the main battery is removed or flat.
Usually the date/time resets when there is a fault with this auxilliary battery. You can get it replaced at your nearest Nokia Care Point.

Time and date settings change when phone is powered down (not shut off)..

I recently installed the iOS 8 update and immediately noticed that the time and date settings would change when I powered down my iPhone. I did not turn off my phone, only clicked the button to power down or save power. I have tried all the fixes, suggestions, etc., but I am still having issues. In the power down state, I am able to receive phone calls or texts but when I go into my phone, the time and date will be off. It stops from the moment I click the button to power down the phone. Please don't get this confused with turning off the phone completely. This happens when I click the button for power down or power save, however it is described.
So, how do I fix it? Is the app/software for the clock the problem? Is the battery distribution the problem? For some reason, in power down mode, the clock is not receiving constant power in order to keep accurate time. It stops the moment I click the button. Any suggestions? fixes, etc. I could try. Apple support techs were absolutely no help what-so-ever.

This sounds exactly like what is going on with my phone, http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/10/19/iphone-5-date-time-glitch/

Time changing while syncing.

Hello !
Hope you're doing it great.
My problem is: When I connect my iTouch (1 gen w/Jan update) the date and time changes.
How can I solve this problem ??
Please help me
Send you a hug.
Emma

As suggested by "cougarfinn" in another discussion thread (in connecting IPOD to windows) try the following: Close itunes and turn off your ipod, then plug it in (which then in turn restarts both the ipod and itunes) it goes to the correct date and time. then go to preferences and disable automatic syncing.
I am still having another problem since the last update: When I do the following: Settings>General>Time & Date, then the main screen (with all of the icons) is displayed, I never see the time, date screen, it goes back after about 1 second to main screen The same thing happens when I do the following: Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>I then scroll to the bottom of the page and I get the main page again. I never get to touch on contacts or calendar, only mail. Please help.

Events from iCal changes when synced with phone :-((

Hi! I've just bought a bluetooth adapter so I can sync my phone with ical. I'm convinced this will bring me one step closer to a digital synchronized heaven, but (of course) I encountered a problem:
When I have added an event to my phone (Sony Ericsson T610) and syncs the calendar with my laptop (iBook G4 933 MHz), the event is "postponed" by two hours. For example: I have an appointment with - say - Pamela Anderson from 12:00 to 15:00 which I add to my phone. When syncing with iCal, the event has changed to 14:00-17:00.
When I add the event to my laptop first, and then syncs it with the phone - the time of the event is set two hours earlier . To take my great example again, the event would then appear to be from 10:00-13:00.
I've gone through all preferences etc. I can find in both iCal, iSync and on the phone. I've found no help online either... Does anyone have a clue? If so, please give me a hint on what to do, I would be immensely grateful!

I was convinced that my time zone was GMT, but when I checked it was GMT +2 hrs, which solved my problem! Thank you so much Julian for helping me solve this, I cant wait to start a synced life

Time changes when switching from Windows to Mac, vice versa

Hi,
I am using Bootcamp to run Windows XP SP2 on my macbook. When ever I switch from one to the other (mac to windows, vice versa) my time will always be incorrect. I have to restart the computer everytime to switch, but when ever I just reset and load into the same OS as before, my time is fine. Anyone know what is wrong? It's really annoying to have to change the time or think its a certain time and it being wrong.

Everyone gets that problem. Evidently Windows and Mac use a different reference point for the time, I think one uses Greenwich and the other local. On the Mac side you can go to System Prefs->Date & Time, and see if checking the box to "Set date & time automatically" fixes the problem.

Problem with times changing when synching to calendar

when I sync my Ipod to my calendar program (Microsoft Outlook), the times change on the Ipod. EG, if something is on my Outlook calendar for 5 pm, it will show on my Ipod for 8 pm.

In the Pages Preferences > Auto Correction deselect Automatic list detection.

IPhoto Batch Date/Time change Suggestion

I recently traveled overseas with my family to a time zone that was +4:30 from my current location. During our trip I took 800+ photographs from my digital camera, 60+ from my iPhone and lots of video from my camcorder. It didn't occur to me until I got back home that not only did I not set the digital and camcorder to the local time where I was vacationing but also my digital camera had somehow been set 2-days back but with the correct home time. So it was actually 2days 4hours and 30minutes behind the time that it should have been. My iPhone photographs were fine because I set it to the local time as soon as I landed there.
Once I synced my camera & phone photographs I realized my problem as my entire vacation was in a jumbled mess. So then I went through the photographs and split the digital camera and iPhone photographs into 2 albums which was not too hard. Thereafter, I went through the digital camera photographs and adjusted the date/time stamp. Some of them I could do in batches, which is not very easy as you need to look at the current date/time stamp, then select the photographs you want to change and then do the math before making the change. The most of it I had to do individually to make sure they wouldn't get jumbled with the iPhone photographs I had taken. So to say the least, to adjust 800+ photographs took a long time and a lot of effort.
My suggestion is a simple batch change like what is available already, but with the option to advance or regress the date/time stamp letting the system use the current date/time stamp.

That command is the adjust time/date command - not the batch change command
Adjust T/D takes a group of selected photos and applies a constant delta to them thereby correcting for camera setting errors or time zone issues
Also note that this is a user to user support forum not a path to Apple - it is a great plce for questions about how iPhoto works - it is an extremely poor place to make requests for changes since there is no one here who can do that.

IPhoto: Retain modified date&time details when re-importing

Instead of having all my photos in just one iPhoto library, I am now moving out photos into separate iPhoto libraries to better manage my photos:
... Export photos from existing/old library
... Re-import photos into newly-created library
Some of my existing photos have modified date & time (result of not checking camera clock after a service!)
Is there a way to retain these modified details when exporting photos from the OLD library and re-importing them into the NEW library?
I am really hoping not to re-edit the photo attributes
Thanks in advance

I am using iPhoto 6.0.6 I do not know of any option "modify original photo". Other than 'batch change' there is no option.
You are posting in the iPhoto '08 forum and will get iPhoto '08 answers here - if you want iPhoto 6 answers it is best to post in the iPhoto 6 forum
I xferred the pics from my camera to a new folder on my desktop. The times are all correct in that folder.
Again - how are you seeing that the time is correct? iPhoto looks at the EXIF data and the finder looks at the file data - how are you seeing the EXIF data on the desktop? EXIF viewer - http://homepage.mac.com/aozer/EV/index.html - is a useful utility to have to see the EXIF data
You can create a fresh plist - that might be the issue but I doubt it - quit iPhoto and in the finder to to "your username" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and delete it - launch iPhoto and reset any personal user preferences you have changed and if you have moved the location of the iPhoto library repoint iPhoto to it

Date & Time changed by itself - VIRUS ?

Wonder if anyone of you can understand this strange behaviour.
When I boot up this morning (not connected to Internet yet - Airport off, no internet connection), I have the following messages:
1. A series of 4 messages asking to "Deny" or "Allow" 4 programs requests - can't remember the exact request but the Help screen (smaller question mark at bottom left corner) explained the programs are asking for something. The programs have names of 4 to 5 letters something like "pbkp" etc Note. just an illustration not the exact name. Forgot to write them down.
2. One message warning my computer date and time set to sometime in 2008 !!!
I did the following:
1. Clicked "Deny" to all four requests.
2. Go to System Preferences - Date & Time was set to "Set date and time automatically" - but the date and time was changed to above.
I then connect to Internet - the date and time were reset automatically to the correct date and time.
It is now more than 10 hours since and I have no problems.
But, should I be concern with:
1. why the date and time was changed?
2. the appearing of the 4 messages?
I understand we should not get viruses with Mac.
Is there anything I should do to cleanse the computer?
Note:
2 days earlier I did received an email on Google mail and I inadvertently clicked on the link which led to a site to buy medicine and the like. I immediately close the site and thrashed the mail.
COuld this be the problem?

This may just be keychain requests to allow access to password protected information.
2. Go to System Preferences - Date & Time was set to "Set date and time automatically" - but the date and time was changed to above.
It will only set automatically if it is conencted to the Net.

On a PC I'd be more worried about this, but it is possible you may be one of the few to have managed to get affected by a trojan horse, not a virus. A virus can act without any action by the user. A trojan horse only reacts to user requests. It is possible that part of this e-mail actually was to present a series of deny/allow requests. If you are the administrative user of the computer or have authorized the program with your password to act on your machine, you could in fact have allowed a trojan horse to run. But without giving the machine your password, there is very little a program can do to impact the computer.
Never open an e-mail you don't recognize. That's lesson number one. If your friends and family send you an e-mail, make sure they indicate in the subject line what they are writing about. This will avoid you confusing it for something else.
If you aren't expecting an e-mail, don't open it.
