Daylight Savings in the UK and repeat alarm issue

Hi All,
I see that our cousins in Oz and NZ have experience of this issue, but I wanted to know if anyone else has had it in the UK...our time changed back 1 hour last night and my repeat alarm (although set at the correct time) went of an hour late (0655 instead of 0555).
This means, according to info on the forum, I have to set the alarm 1 hour earlier to wake up at the correct time! This is not very impressive 1) as i was late for work this am 2) as I would not have expected this from Apple.
Any other advice fixes, or knowledge out there...??

Hey, likewise. See my Post to Z
"I have had the exact same problem. All of my repeat alarms don't work since end of British Summer Time. Tried everything in settings, on the clock settings, set new alarms to test, but any alarm set with a repeat just didn't seem to work. Phoned Apple support and "Leo", my support advisor eventually advised a full restore, which took me a good 2 hours of tonight, and some considerable stress, and achieved nothing!!!
Then I read some of these posts, and realise I am not alone. (Thanks Z)
Tried setting alarm time 1 hour earlier than GMT time required and 'Hey Presto' ........ repeat alarm went off.
Come on Apple, lets have a proper fix, pronto, after all time is money."
When Malcom of Apple advises "fix is on the way", I can only wonder what level of resource is being applied to the problem. Perhaps now that OZ, NZ, CA and UK are now posted as being in the same boat, a global fix will materialise.(soon please)

    Hi,
    I believe this would be your Prod system, so don't just cancel it but look at the job log. If it is still processing then don't kill it and wait for the change run to complete but if you can see that nothing is happening and it is stuck for a long time then you can go ahead and cancel it.
    But please be sure, as these kind of jobs can create problems if you cancel them in the middle of a job.

  • Why the step-and-repeat function (command+d) isn't working in Illustrator CS5?

    Why the step-and-repeat function (command+d) isn't working in Illustrator CS5?
    I am trying this. Take an object, move it some inches on the right while holding the option key, so I duplicate it.
    Usually, I pressed on command+d to duplicate this action on and on (duplicate the object and moving it some inches away), but now it is not working.
    any idea?

    kwakoo,
    It may be time for the list:
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

    I keep getting the error 306 cannot connect to the iTunes Network when downloading songs on iTunes. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps from the forums and my technical issues are still unresolved. I have Windows 7. Please help!!

    iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
    Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
    To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings  ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1490 ) and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
    To reset iTunes Store cache:
    In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
    Click the Advanced tab.
    Click the "Reset cache" button.
    Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
    Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
    Open iTunes.
    Access iTunes preferences:
    On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
    On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Parental Controls tab.
    Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
    For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.

  • Clarify for me: did 'the fix' for repeating alarms work?

    I like a repeating alarm as I don't need to reset it each evening before I go to sleep. And know it wont go off on the weekend as I have only set it for week days!!!
    I faithfully read the advice (on the support page) and noted the date (7 Nov) the repeating alarm problem should be resolved. I started a new alarm and set it for Monday morning (on repeating for the week)... and it still went off an hour late.
    Is this because its not fixed(alas)?
    Is it because, I need to delete all my alarms and start a fresh? (I did delete the repeat alarm and add a whole new one, but the remaining alarms were not deleted).
    Advice please.

    You're welcome.
    No, just part of the bug involved with the time change.
    Syncing has nothing to do with this and no updates are installed on your iPhone via iTunes or over the air without your knowledge and approval.

  • Apple, please solve the -50 and 1418 error issue

    Dear Apple,
    I have read during hours this forum and also posting my own experiences. Does anyone have a solution to these -50 and 1418 errors? Apple has exchanged my 2G Shuffle twice already, but no solution. I strongly suspect it to be an iTunes software issue or incompatibility, since the Shuffle is being recognized perfectly under Windows XP explorer and I can copy and read any files from the computer to the shuffle and vice versa. But as soon as I start iTunes, the Shuffle disappears in the Windows explorer, is being recognized in iTunes but then it stops: error -50, "The disk cannot be written to or read from", error 1418 when trying to restore, no music synching and no restoring possible.
    HELP PLEASE

  • My iPhone 4S sound won't work. I can't watch any videos or listen to music directly off my phone. It only plays with plugged into to auxiliary cord. Although, the ringtone and my alarm works, I can't change how loud either is.

    I have an iPhone 4S. My ringtone and alarm will work, on occasion my texting alert will too. Although, I can't control how loud I want any of these things anymore. Other than that, my slide to unlock sound does not work, neither does the click sounds when texting. I have checked to make sure these are all on and enabled in settings. My phone will not play music and I cannot hear any videos either unless it is plugged into an auxiliary cord and played through a stereo. I dropped it in the snow once, could this be why? Is this a malfunction? Can I fix it or do I get a new phone because of a defect? Thank you!!

    Your phone still thinks it is plugged into the stereo. I don't remember how to solve this but perhaps you can search through the forum or maybe one of the members here will jump in on how to switch the playback to speakers.

  • Why is there no answers to the calendar and contact sync issues

    I have searched and can find questions everywhere but no resolutions.  Since upgrading to 5.1 and Itunes 10 I can nolonger sync contacts and calendars.  Any Ideas?

    Look at your contacts on the phone.
    Tap the Groups button in the upper left corner.
    You will see all of the sources for the contacts on your phone. "From My PC" is the one that syncs with Outlook via iTunes.
    Are the contacts you created on the phone in that group? If not, they won't sync with the PC. They'll sync with whatever service they're listed under. (iCloud, for example)
    Same goes for calendars and Notes.

  • Daylight savings affecting reminders/alarms on iphone calendar

    I've seen numerous posts about daylight savings affecting the time on the iphone, but haven't seen any responses to this particular question yet.  Since daylight savings went into effect last weekend, my reminders are going off an hour early, even though the time on my iphone shows the current, proper time.  My phone says it is 8:00 AM (CST).  However, an alarm that I set for 8am went off at 7am this morning.  Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Thanks so much!

    Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

  • Daylight savings and backup exec

    I haven't had this problem before, the OS and patching hasn't changed,
    here are the configurations and symptoms.
    OS platform is NW 6.5 OES SP6. Running the time command shows the
    correct time. However the Symantec Backup exec software 9.2 rev 1391 is
    exactly 1 hour behind. This stems from daylight savings. The backup
    software resides on a cluster node but is not cluster enabled. The node
    and software have been restarted but the time is still incorrect.
    This is a very strange behavior, has anyone felt this sting?
    Cheers,
    CB

  • Daylight Savings in Australia and OnDemand

    All,
    Sydney moved to daylight savings on the weekend but our OnDemand locale didn't, as a result their Calendars are out by an hour. I've got 3 customers with this issue. Has anyone else seen this?
    cheers
    Alex

    It may be of note that as soon as I turned off the automatic time in the date and time settings, the time on my phone went forward an hour.

  • Are there any plans to move the "Math Check" to AFTER the O.K. BUTTON is pushed on STEP AND REPEAT?

    One of my pet peeves is that I have to clear all the fields in the STEP AND REPEAT dialouge box before I can begin entering information.  I have been patiently waiting for this bug to be fixed.  I am beginning to wonder if Adobe is even aware of the bug?  It drives me nuts to no end!!!  I am sure it is responsible for several points in my blood pressure reading on given days.  I'll have an object selected that I need to step 7 times and I'll bring up the Step and Repeat dialouge box.  I'll enter 7 in the COUNT field.  InDesign will in some cases immediately flag the operation as not possible because there are numbers in the other two fields that I haven't had a chance to edit yet that will cause the step and repeat operation to go off the pasteboard.  It makes me MAD because it changes my 7 back to a 1 and I have to go and put in the correct values for the VERTICAL and HORIZONTAL offset fields and then I have to go back up to the COUNT field and re-enter my 7.  All of this and I haven't even hit the O.K. button yet!!!  Can someone at Adobe pleeeeeeaaaaaase inform the programmers of this glitch and have them move the MATH CHECK to AFTER THE O.K. BUTTON is clicked!  I wouldn't mind the message if the figures I entered were incorrect and I had hit the O.K. button.  But it drives me absolutely insane when it starts trying to correct me before I've even finished entering my values!
    Am I the only one?
    I would love to hear from anyone else out there that gets frustrated from this.  If for no other reason then to let me know I haven't completely lost my sanity yet.
    Thanks.
    Randy

    O.K. Peter.  I did go and file a report.  I couldn't bring myself though to call it a feature request because I clearly believe it is a bug.  A co-worker of mine and I had a long discussion about it.  He argued your side of things suggesting that the program was working as the programmers intended for it to be and because of that I couldn't call it a bug.  But, I contend that the program IS NOT working as the programmers intended for it to be because if you look at the OBJECT > TRANSFORM > MOVE item in InDesign it also brings up a dialogue box.  This dialogue box also has a PREVIEW check box on it.  If the PREVIEW check box is checked then it immediately evaluates the numbers as you enter them into the various fields.  And if you enter an invalid number it will immediately present the error message.  However, if the PREVIEW check box is left unchecked then it waits until you press the O.K. Button before evaluating the numbers and executing the move.  The STEP AND REPEAT dialogue box should behave the same way but it doesn't.  It behaves as if the PREVIEW check box is checked whether it is or not.  So that is a BUG in my humble opinion.
    Thanks for your help in pointing me to the correct form.  I'm usually so busy working that I never have time to look that kind of stuff up.
