Different time zones in the same calendar subscription

Dear kind helpers,
To state my problem as clear as possible, I need to be a bit long. Sorry for that.
I registered to a calendar displaying the rugby schedule for the VI nations tournament:
-> http://www.rbs6nations.com/tools/calendars/sixnations-fixtures-6n-all.ics
from the official web site:
-> http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/matchcentre/downloadable_fixture_list.php
The only thing you need to know about this tournament is that it involves 6 teams (hence the name):
- 2 on the continent, then at GMT+1 (France and Italy),
- 4 on the British Isles (Englands, Walles, Scotland and Ireland), then at GMT+0
I think all of these nations have the same summer / winter shifts.
I'm on the continent, Central European Time for the time zone support feature on iCal (OS 10.9.1).
I guess it's GMT+1 plus winter shift at the moment.
I notice the same following problem on my iPod (iOs 5.1.1), sync through iCloud
Here the problem : it seems all the games are in local times !
For instance, a game in the Islands (Scotland, England, ...) appears at 5pm whereas I would like it to appear at 6pm (so the time is correctly displayed for British Isles, not for the continent) / a game on the continent (France or Italy) will appear at 5pm and I'm fine because it's right the correct time in my time zone. I've no idea how a game which takes place on the continent appears in the British Isles :-(
So a few questions :
- am I clear about the problem ?
- is it a problem from iCal or from the subscription itself ?
- in case it's iCal, is there a way to fix the trouble ?
PS : I experienced the same problem with an other subscription a few years ago ; it was also for a european championship schedule across different time zones displayed in the same calendar. This one was discontinued.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is an issue with the subscription itself. The times for the events are set in 'floating' time and whatever time zone you use it iCal will show the event as being at that time local time (which obviously won't be right unless you are in the correct time zone).
I could post a more technical explanation if you like.
Best wishes

    Under the summary tab in iTunes make sure you have Automatically Back Up This computer. If you have iCloud selected it won't back up when syncing.

  • I need to have two time zones on the same iCal appointment

    I work accross four time zones, two of which do not observe Daylight Saving Time (DST). This means that when I'm booking my flights on iCal, it would be usefull to have two time zones in the same iCal appointment (Outlook, for instance, allows this). What I currently do is to choose one of the time zones as the iCal appointment and then I "translate" the other time to the one I'm using on iCal.
    This is quite a challenge, though:
    if I'm taking a flight from Luanda (WAT = GMT+1, no DST) to London (GMT with DST) I would like to book it on iCal exactly like it shows on the ticket , 21:00 (WAT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    Using the "translated approach", from May to October, this means 21:00 (GMT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    Using the same approach, from November to April it means from 20:00 (GMT) to 06:00 (GMT).
    If I include Jo'burg (CAT = GMT+2, no DST) and Frankfurt (GMT+1 with DST), booking flights in your calendar becomes quite a challenge!
    Does anyone know if this feature is planned for any future versions of iCal?

    Hi,
    This is not possible in iCal. The nearest thing would be to create two events, one for take off and one for landing.
    Also, this is a user to user forum. By posting here you are not guaranteed someone from Apple will read it. If you'd like Apple to know about your suggestion I reccommend you send them feedback.

  • How do I sync my icloud calendar between iPhone 5 and macbook pro without a 1 hour difference? I've made sure that the time zones are the same on all devices and it's still doing it.

    I cannot get my iphone 5 and macbook pro to display the same time on my calendar. There is a one hour  difference between them and it is driving me crazy!! Please help!!!

    Did you also confirm that the time zone was set correctly on icloud.com (click on your name, check Time Zone)?

  • Can iTunes play 2 different songs on 2 different airport express at the same time?

    Hi
    I am trying to setup a multi zone home audio system where iTunes will be the main source of music.   I would like to be able to listen to different music in multiple zones at the same time and I am trying to find out if iTunes can support this or not.  I know there are "multi zone audio systems" that can be purchases from different companies (elan, Russound, Control4, etc) but I want to see if this functionality exists within Apple hardware before purchasing a different system.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    using two TV's you could do what you want. you'd have to select the content to stream on the units themselves or use Apple's remote app on an iDevice.

  • How to reset the location of a Time Machine taken to a different time zone?

    I have recently moved my Time machine to a different country and time zone. I have reset the whole thing, entered the right time zone in the manual set up, but it still displays the old location when automatically searching for time zone. Also, when using an iPod Touch and Google earth or Maps, it shows the old location as the current one. How do I reset the location on my Time Machine to match the current one?

    +I had done that and it does show the correct time on my machine. My question however was about the location setting and it displays my former address and not the current one.+
    There are only two settings on the Time Capsule related to location and time.
    Open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup
    Click the Time Capsule tab below the row of icons and you will see time settings and time zone settings
    Then click the Wireless tab and then click Wireless Network Options to see the settings for Country location.

    Can i play different songs to different airplay speakers at the same time ?
    I know you can select the different speakers to play the music to, but wondered if you can also push different music to different speakers at the same time ?
    If not is there a way around this other than going for something like Sonos ?

  • Same user has different time zone setting in Analytics & BI Publisher

    Hi All,
    i am using OBIEE 11.1.1.3.0 now,
    1) when login to http://localhost:9704/analytics, the time zone setting is (GMT+08:00) Taipei,
    2) when login to http://localhost:9704/xmlpserver, the time zone setting is [GMT-11:00] Midway Island, Samoa,
    it is different, why? and i can't even modify the time zone setting in BI Publisher.
    Regards,
    Makson

    do you know how does the default time zone setting come from?It comes with the installation itself default. or it will be related to some database timezone that will be taken by BI.
    default time zone values can be changed with variables that have been newly introuduced system session variables like TIMEZONE in OBIEE 11g
    TIMEZONE --> Contains the time zone of the user, typically populated from the LDAP profile of the user.

  • Can the central system and the sender system at different time zone?

    We have a control(i.e. central) system which is 6 hours ahead of the sender system.
    When processing step "analyse tables in sender system", we get short dumps immediately at  control , sender and receiver.
    On the sender, the short dump reads:
    Runtime Errors         CALL_FUNCTION_SEND_ERROR                       
    Date and Time          01/15/2011 16:09:05                                                                               
    Short text                                                           
         " " (I/Oerror)                                                                               
    What happened?                                                       
         "CPIC-CALL: 'ThCMSEND' : cmRc=18 thRc=0#Statistics not active "                                                                               
    An error occurred when executing a Remote Function Call.
    On  the central system the short dump reads:
    Runtime Errors         CALL_FUNCTION_REMOTE_ERROR
    Date and Time          15.01.2011 22:09:00
    Short text
         "Field symbol has not yet been assigned."
    On the receiver the short dump reads:
    Runtime Errors         GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED                                         
    Date and Time          01/15/2011 22:09:00                                                                               
    Short text                                                                       
         Field symbol has not yet been assigned.                                                                               
    What happened?                                                                   
         Error in the ABAP Application Program                                                                               
    The current ABAP program "SAPLCNVTDMS_BW_FUNCTIONS_REM" had to be terminated  .
    We never get this error before on this step.  The only thing I can think of is that the sender and the central system
    are at different time zone.
    Please share your experience.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    By looking at the runtime error , the reason of the dump should not be the timestamp diff .
    You can create an OSS ticket with SAP for further analysis.
    Also, there can be data consistency issues due to time diff .

    Thanks. I know how to select multiple tracks in the mixer, did that and put on group clutch,
    Hi
    Wrong..
    To assign tracks to a group, click in the dark gray box just above the automation (Read/Write/Off etc) on a channel strip, and select the group number you wish to use. The first tim eyou assign a group, the Group Setting swindow will appear automatically, thereafter you need to click on the group area and choose 'Open Group Settings'.
    Make sure that you have turned off Group Clutch (this disables all Groups)
    Maybe this will help

  • Forward two different dial numbers at the same time to the same destination

    Hello everybody,
    I need to forward two different dial numbers in the same phone (Cisco 6921) to the same destination.
    I'd change the phone if it'll be necessary.
    Forward from the end user web is not a valid posibility. It is neccesary to do this forward from the phone.
    Any idea, suggestion or testing scenario should be appreciated.
    I use CUCM 8.5
    Thanks in advance.

    you can mask the other number by using translation pattern

  • New Time Zone Issue with MobileMe Calendar Upgrade

    I'm having strange things happen with sending/receiving "invitations" to people in other time zones.
    Prior to this MobileMe calendar upgrade, sending/receiving invitations worked fine. I would schedule an event (obviously in my time zone), and if I invite a friend in a different time zone, the event would show up on her Google Calendar at the proper time. Between iCal and Google Calendar, the time zone translation was working properly. Likewise, when she scheduled an event and sent me an invitation, the event showed up in iCal at the proper time for me.
    But now, after simply upgrading MobileMe calendar, events from me to her show up at the wrong time! It's as if the time zone translation is no longer occurring. Oddly, events that she sends to me still work correctly.
    I have "Turn on time zone support" enabled in iCal, MobileMe calendar, and on the iPhone.
    So this very nice feature that was working previously seems to have broken with the MobileMe calendar upgrade.
    Has anyone else seen this, or (hopefully) solved it?
    Thanks!
    Jim
