Daylight savings problem - Fixed in LR4?

Hi all,
I'm using LR3 and recently discovered a problem where the program automatically adjusts the 'Time Taken' field in the photo's EXIF data to match Daylight Savings time. Obviously this is extremely stupid becasue I want to know what time the photo was taken at at the time, not what it corresponds to now.
It seems the problem has been around since LR1.0, and there's a lot of threads about this dating back to 2007, such as this one: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1383951#1383951
What I really want to know is this: Is the problem finally fixed in LR4? If so I'll be upgrading as quickly as possible.
Thanks,
Martin

Why don't you try it out for yourself. Download the LR4 trial and see if it works properly for your circumstances using a test library. Obviously, be sure to you don't upgrade your only copy of your LR3 library in the process.

  • Time Conversion from Local to UTC Help! - Daylight Savings Problem?

    Hi,
    I am trying to use the generic conversion of local time to UTC time.  I thought I had everything working since I use the "Get Date/Time in Seconds" and then convert to "Seconds to Date/Time" witht the "to UTC" flag set true.  Then I convert back to a timestamp.
    I thought I had everything working until I hit Daylight Savings for the Pacific Standard Time.  Now the Labview is off by 1 hour!
    Is there an update to the Subvi's that do this?  Is this a known error?  Please help.   Thank you!

    Here is the path you are doing that is causing the logic to fall apart for you.
    1.  You are getting the current time.  In your images, it is 12:41 pm PDT which is 7:41 pm GMT
    2.  You are asking for the date/time record (that cluster that breaks out everything) but are saying it is UTC, so you get a date/time record that 19:41 UTC (7:41 pm).  And the DST flag is 0.  (Because UTC doesn't observe daylight savings time.)
    3.  Now  you are taking that date/time record and converting back to an actual date/time.  You don't wire up the UTC flag so it defaults to false.  Thus the date/time record is interpreted as local.  That DST flag is still 0 in your cluster.  So you are actually converting the time to 7:41 pm PST, which is actually 8:41 PDT.  (+1 hour for spring forward based on the month/date info.)
    4.  You are displaying that time stamp in the indicator labelled "Current Date/Time (UTC)", but it is not truly UTC, it is actually the conversion of a local time from PST to PDT, and it is not even the current local time.  It is actually a "local" time 8 hours into the future.  If you put the carat into that indicator's display format, you'll see that the UTC time is in the future as well.  You call it UTC, but you are displaying a future local time.
    The inconsistent conversions from local to UTC, and not accounting for the change of the DST flag from daylight time to UTC are what is confusing you.  You kind of get lucky during standard time because the DST flag is 0 for both local standard time and UTC.  But the conversions are still wrong, but it is a case of two wrongs are making it look right.  Even in standard time your input timestamp and your output timestamp indicator don't match which you would see if you used an Equals? function on them.

  • Daylight Savings Time fix and CFDOCUMENT

    After our webmaster installed the JVM update (1.4.2_13) to
    correct the DST issue, I discovered that CFDOCUMENT doesn't seem to
    function. Has anyone else ran into this issue?

    We loaded 1.4.2_11 (as recommended in the technotes) and
    cfdocument works okay, but we are getting random times when it
    completely locks up the machine and crashes JRun. I believe there
    is a bug that was introduced with the 7.0.2 updater and that jvm
    that now affects cfdocument.

  • Has anyone had problems in v5.0a of Iplanet calendar installed on a Sun box with creating events and daylight savings time?

    Events created around 4/6/2002 at 8pm get created with the wrong time (9pm) and there are several other creation and display problems tied to Daylight Savings in April and October. Version 5.1 of the software seems to fix that but we are looking for a fix until we can upgrade. We have been using Windows systems to access the calendar.
    Thanks.

    We have not seen exactly this, but many users appointments are lining up in the wrong time slots. Also, when scheduling, the time display is off by an hour. We have found what looks like a temporary fix.
    We noticed that the problem only affects users who have the start of the week set to Sunday (when daylight savings time started). Setting the week to start on Monday fixed our display problems (you can do it in the users, options section).
    I am placing a support call w/SUN.

  • HOw do I fix the fact that ical jumped (almost) all my events post daylight savings time change an hour ahead?

    A few weeks ago I noticed that everything past 3/8 was an hour ahead, and I assumed once daylight savings time changed it would all jump back. It hasn't, and I don't know how to continue scheduling events or if I should change them all.  I read that (a few years ago) the suggestion was give it 24 hours to adjust??

    I think this problem is more complex. Background - UK clocks went back at the end of October; the USA went back one week later. I am in the UK and my Outlook calendar contains appointments created in the USA.
    Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment before any clocks went back. In Outlook everything is correct. The meeting times are the same each week except for the one week between the two clock changes when, quite correctly, the meeting shows up one hour earlier. When I sync with my iPhone, the meeting shows at the same time every week regardless - this is incorrect.
    Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment in the week after the UK clocks went back but before the USA clocks did. Outlook correctly shows the first occurrence as one hour earlier than all the following occurrences. Unfortunately - and this is the really nasty bit - the iPhone shows ALL the appointments one hour earlier than they should be. The only one that is correct is the first one.
    This is a nasty bug and something that Apple needs to fix.

  • Daylight Savings Time - Calendar Problems

    When I checked my calendar this evening (i.e. since daylight savings came into effect) I noticed that some (not all) of my scheduled events have been pushed back by an hour. I looked at my Outlook calendar and everything is in the right time slot. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Does anyone have a fix?

    I had similar problems with the calendar on the iphone until I set BOTH timezone sections properly. That is, there is a time zone entry for Date & Time, and one for Calendar, and both should be set, regardless of whether you have "Automatic" and/or "Time Zone Support" turned on or off.
    So, under Settings>General>Date&Time, turn "Set Automatically" off and then pick your correct time zone. I also turned on "Set Automatically" after setting the proper time zone there.
    Then, go to Time Zone Support and turn that off, then pick your correct time zone. I leave the support off because I always enter my calendar times for local time in the time zone I'll actually be in (e.g., a 10:00 meeting in London is set for 10:00 in my calendar even though I live near philadelphia, because it want it to be set for 10:00 when I'm there in London).
    Ever since setting both time zone sections, I've not had any problems. It turned out that the date&time setting was set for cupertino, though I never noticed it because set automatically was turned on. So even though I'd set my calendar time zone properly, odd things happened because somehow the cupertino time zone was effective for certain things.
    Anyway, just a few thoughts.

  • Daylight Savings Time problem

    I live in Saskatchewan (SK), a province in Canada that does not observe daylight savings time (we stay on central standard time year round). My iPhone calendar is set to a city in our province (Regina). Looking at next week's calendar entries, they are all pushed back an hour, like the iPhone is automatically compensating for the end of daylight savings this weekend. The only problem is, we don't change our clocks in SK since we don't observe DST, so all my appointments are out an hour.
    I hope someone can shed some light on this so I don't have to go into my calendar and manually reset all the times.

    The alarm issue is a known problem and apparently Apple plans on fixing it with iOS 4.2. Here's a link to news items about the alarm issue.

  • How can I fix my calendar times? They are 1 hour early after daylight savings.

    After my iPhone automatically changed to daylight savings times, it also made my calendar events 1 hour ealier than they should be. After checking threads I have double checked time zone support is on and matches my timezone in date and time. I sync with Outlook 2010 and the times are still correct here and I have tried to replace information on the iPhone with informqation from outlook, but this hasn't worked. Solutions?

    Outlook (ver 2003 in my case but am sure many other versions...) and iPhone calendars cannot and will not share events with any degree of integrity regards their schedulling when synchronised via iTunes - specifically: events (recurring or otherwise) that are created PRIOR to a Daylight Savings Time event (in the UK our 2 events this year are March 25th and October 28th).
    When transferred to the iPhone calendar during the sync process these events appear to be "altered" on all the incidences they appear AFTER a DST event and are displayed as either an hour ahead or behind their equivalent events within the Outlook calendar that they are supposed to be mirroring. iOS is effectively allocating these daylight-saved events a unique Time Zone of their own - this should NOT be happening.
    Real life examples:
    Weekly timed event (0900hrs-1100hrs) was created on February 5th to run every week until further notice... This displays correctly in Outlook for ALL instances - e.g. 0900hrs-1100hrs and irrespective of how far ahead you check the calendar... on iPhone calendar it displays correctly UNTIL March 25th - thereafter it is showing as timed at 1000hrs-1200hrs.This is massively frustrating... Changing the iPhone Time Zone from what should be the proper local "London" zone (in my case) to UTC I found cured the problem for these "orphans" when the clocks went back an hour last October - but this was a false cure and unfortunately many people discussing similar "cures" within these forums have not taken the trouble to examine the iPhone calendar in more detail and look either back to prev DST event date or forwards to the next DST event date because if they did they would find that all the calendar entries covering those periods will have been shifted by an hour.
    One-off timed events - with or without alarms... These too get pushed forward an hour (post March 25th) - I missed a dentist appointment the other week because of this particular issue. I had actually planned the appointment months ago and at that time input it in iPhone calendar at the correct time/date. Outlook and/or the iPhone (or both in combination) somehow "marked" this appointment as a GMT appointment. When clocks went forward - this GMT "attribute" was preserved and applied to it - effectively the appointment was modified (without any authorisation/involvement on my part) and rescheduled to appear an hour later. Outrageous! Recurring alarmed events suffer same problem - with the alarms sounding an hour later of course.
    I have tried all the so-called "fixes" to be found within these discussion groups and others all around the web and NONE have actually worked. Unfortunately, as I stated earlier, I suspect a lot of the reported "fixes" were premature annoucements from people who may not have their Outlook sync parameters set over a long enough time period for them to be able to view events several months ahead or behind and therefore see what happens to them AFTER the clock-change dates.
    I need to determine which application is screwing this all up - is it Outlook or is it iOS? The fact of the matter is - I was able to use a Windows Mobile device that synced with Outlook 2003 for several years WITHOUT this issue. All that happened when DST event came along was the clock either went forwards or backwards - the events themselves were not interferred with and remained showing at the times they were originally set for - what could be simpler??
    If I were planning to use the iPhone calendar on its own - without wanting to syncronise it with Outlook - I would not be here writing this post - but I purchased this device on the basis that Apple said it would be compatible with Outlook - it was a long thought-out decision as I was moving away from a Windows Mobile environment and ability to sync with Outlook was the only feature I needed to work.
    The Outlook calendar sync feature is broken and has been for at least 3/4 years judging by the many reports to be found on the web. This needs fixing - NOW.

  • IPhone calendar time problem post daylight savings time change

    Addendum to the similar post about a one hour differential between iCal and iPhone. THis is not just iCal. I have the same problem on WIndows XP/Outlook 2003. Everythign worked fine until the time change last weekend. Now this is what happens:
    Any meeting set up in Outlook BEFORE Daylight Savings that has a start date BEFORE Daylight Savings appears properly on iPhone. FOr example, every Thursday beginning Nov 1 at 8am. THis shows up correct in iPhone at 8am for today, Nov 8.
    But, any meeting set up AFTER Daylight Savings shows up one hour later on the iPhone when I sync. SO a meeting I set up in OUtlook for 10am today shows up at 11am on the iPhone.
    And, any calendar event I set up on the iPhone AFTER Daylight Savings shows up one hour earlier in Outlook 2003.
    THis is a huge problem for me! Both of my calendars are wrong now. PLease help!!! I have tried everything I can:
    I tried setting up meetings with the OUtlook Daylight Savings setting enables and disabled: no change. No differnce whether I set up the meeting on my PC or it is an invitation from someone else. I lost all sync history. no change. I overwrote all calendar content (in iPhone advanced options) - no change.
    And, as my fellow poster mentions - the tiime on the two systems match.

    I think this problem is more complex. Background - UK clocks went back at the end of October; the USA went back one week later. I am in the UK and my Outlook calendar contains appointments created in the USA.
    Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment before any clocks went back. In Outlook everything is correct. The meeting times are the same each week except for the one week between the two clock changes when, quite correctly, the meeting shows up one hour earlier. When I sync with my iPhone, the meeting shows at the same time every week regardless - this is incorrect.

Outlook correctly shows the first occurrence as one hour earlier than all the following occurrences.

  • IPhone 6 Plus Daylight Savings Time Problem

    My recent upgrade from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6 Plus has been generally positive, but today the phone outsmarted me.
    The phone seemed to be correctly reset to daylight savings time for most of the day.
    Around 6PM I set an alarm for 8PM to remind me to wake my sister from a nap.
    A while later the alarm goes off. It didn't seem like two hours. I called my sister and said it was eight,
    but alas it was only 7PM.
    I went into the alarm settings and sure enough the alarm was still set for 8PM.
    My Mac Pro says it is 7PM, and the MacBook says so also.
    I am on the central coast of California, in Santa Maria. My provider is Sprint.
    My very expensive smart phone seems confused about the time. :-(
    Thoughts?

  • ICal and iCloud Calendar Appointments Problems Following Daylight Savings Time Change

    This morning following the daylight savings time change, I noticed that some but not all of my appointments had shifted forward an hour. Strangely enough, some are correct on the iCloud calendar but are still not correct in iCal. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Here's another anomaly: the info panel is showing the correct time while the calendar view is not! I have turned off time zone support in both iCal and the iCloud calendar. It's so frustrating when you rely on these tools--especially for appointments--and you find that you can't trust them to be accurate!

    samdale67,
    Have you had any luck fixing this problem yet?
    I just noticed today that my iCloud calendar is consistently one hour behind my iPhone4s calendar. It's as if my iCloud calendar never got the Daylight Savings Time Spring Forward message. The iPhone, on the other hand, updated to DST right on schedule. It's annoying because I'm starting to use my iCloud calendar and would like the time change to be applied.

  • N8 Daylight savings time huge problem

    I live in Jordan and daylgiht savings is activated on April 1st (the phone time is set to jordan) but today/yesterday (march 25th) it activated daylight savings increasing one hour on the time, the problem is that everytime I adjst the time (decrease 1 hour) it automatically increases another hour making it impossible to fix the time (auto time updates are off). 
    *noite: i can change the minutes but not the hours
    so bascially does anyone else have this problem?? and do you have idea how to fix it 
    If you found this post or any other psot helpful please press the green kudus star

    We will get somebody to look at this incorrect date for the time change, many countries that use daylight savings time do so from the final Sunday of March, which would appear to explain your premature switch in Jordan where you are using a different date for the switch.
    With regard to the way the time zone is shown, Symbian phones always show your local time in relation to GMT/UTC, which doesn't include any daylight savings calculation, so for example here in Finland, my N8 shows GMT+3, but once we switch back to normal time in September that will revert to GMT+2.

  • Having problems setting alarm time since daylight savings time change today

    Since the change to Daylight Savings time this morning, I am unable to set my alarm correctly.  I set it to 2:40 a.m. but the time on the alarm shows 3:40 a.m.  I have all the proper settings correctly done.  I have powered down the phone numerous times, and still the same result. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I've cleared the clock cache, powered off the phone and the problem remains the same. I have the Automatic date & time checked, and the same for Automatic time zone (GMT-5:00, Eastern Daylight Time).  I have even unchecked both and still get the same result.
    What is weird, I can set the alarm for any other time, but unable to set it at 2:40 a.m. When I do this, it sets to 3:40 a.m.  Any time that I set from 2:00 a.m. to 2:59 a.m. goes to that time setting in the 3 a.m. time.

  • Problem with time settings after daylight savings

    Ever since the time was returned to normal from daylight savings time, the time on my Blackberry Pearl 8100 is out by one hour (1 hour slow). I set the correct timezone under Date/Time Options and set the Date/Time Source to 'off'. Also, the network time is 7 hours slow since I returned from an overseas trip recently. Can anyone please help?

    Sounds like you may need the DST Patch installed on your phone.  Go to www.blackberry.com/dst2007 on your device and follow the steps.  It is very easy to do
