Event start time sets automatically to 19:00 and can't be changed

New Events are automatically given a start time of 19:00 and cannot be changed. In addition, all my previously entered events, both single and recurring, have had their start times set to 19:00. My iMac had been unused for almost three months and upon returning to the machine, an update was available for Max OS, which I allowed to be installed. I'm now running 10.6.2, but I don't know if that has anything to do with this problem. Something changed, and that's the only change I know of. Thank you.

Bob,
One of the first things to try is "refresh" the com.apple.iCal.plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCal, drag the .plist file to your Desktop, log out/in or restart and check iCal for normal behavior.
Also open System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats>Region and set/reset the appropriate region. Then set/reset "Customize..." in "Times."
;~)

How do you alter the event start time

The event start time always defaults to 5:00 pm. How do I change this.

Thanks for replying. Yes my event time is responding as you pointed out, however I' putting on a number of events at about 4:00 pm that all start about 8:30 am so it would be very useful if the default time could be set for a specific time. Thunderbird is version 31.5.0, I only started using this programme a few days ago and downloaded the Lightening Calendar at that time. Could not find how to find the version of Lightening perhaps you could help there as well. Regards

Date & Time - Set Automatically Not Working

I'm experiencing some very quirky behviour with the time that appears on status bar on the home screen and the world clocks.
Ever since the DST change on the weekend my iPhone no longer acquires the correct time from the network when I have "set automatically" enabled for Date & Time. Prior to this I have traveled through various time zones and the correct time would always be displayed. Even on the World Clocks.
Now the iPhone acquires time that is -1hr. However, all the World Clocks appear correct (even for the local city that I'm in).
If I disable "set automatically" and select the city I'm in everything returns to normal and the World Clocks continue to function.
Since I travel a lot it really bothers me that the set automatically doesn't work and I would really like a long term solution so I can keep it enabled.
In the meantime, can anyone help explain the following:
1. How is time stored on the iPhone? Is it set to local time or GMT with a timezone offset?
2. How does it acquire time and timezone from the carrier?
3. How does it determine the time to display on the status bar and screen saver?
4. How does it determine the time to display for the World Clocks?
I am running firmware 1.1.4

I am currently in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Current timezone is UTC/GMT -5 (CDT - Central Daylight Time).
When date & time is set to automatic, the time in the status bar is incorrect for Winnipeg by -1 hr. All the times in the World Clock are correct (including the display for Winnipeg).
I recall an issue I had when using Bootcamp on my Macbook. The Macbook records system time (and all time stamps) in UTC/GMT but displays the correct time once you specify the timezone offset. This caused problems when booting back and forth with Windows because Windows assumed the system clock was set to the local time (I now use VMWare Fusion). This issue was well documented on the Apple site.
I'm assuming the iPhone behaves similar to my Macbook and Mac OS and expects the system time to be set as UTC/GMT. The behaviour I'm experiencing suggests the UTC/GMT time is actually being set correctly on the iPhone (otherwise, the world clocks wouldn't display the correct time) but the timezone offset is incorrect for Winnipeg (which determines how it's displayed in the status bar).
I did some significant troubleshooting last night and gathered some data to further explain the problem. However, I fear that if I post it publicly the thread may be deleted.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

Every event starts on the 5min mark (10:05) and I can't edit it!!!

Every event starts on the 5min mark (10:05) and I can't edit it for some reason. I can change the date, the hour, and the am/pm, but not the minutes. It's very strange.
Is there a way to "reload" or "restore" iCal?
Using version 3.0.8

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

I had an album on my iPad that didn't have a delete option. I was able to finally remove everything by connecting the iPad to iTunes and going to the Photos tab. Select sync photos. It will ask you if you want to replace all photo on iPad with sync photos. Apply the setting and then un-sync photo again. It will then remove all photos on iPad starting with a clean slate.
Be sure to backup all your photos before doing this. Hope that helps.

Uploading newer ios on Ipad 2 - things were going well then got a picture of the apple logo and a line moving from start to end - stopped short of end and can't do anything now - HELP

Try a soft-reset and see if that gets it to boot up properly : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should reappear and it will hopefully boot up.
If it doesn't then try recovery mode and restore/resync your content : If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

On the main menu, isn't there a settings icon next to the green one that says "Computer" ?

Date & Time Set Automatically locate me in China!

I upgraded my iTouch 4G to iOs 5 the other day. A couple of days later, in the middle of the night, the time zone switched to Shanghai and I missed my doctor's appointment because the iPod thought I was in China. Now, I live in Reykjavík, Iceland, nowhere near China. What the heck has happened? I switched 'Set Automatically" off and set it to Reykjavík and it works fine. Still, when I use the Facebook app my location is Shenyang, Liaoning, China!
Is this an iOs 5 glitch or what the heck is going on? I've tried it over a different wifi and it's the same thing.

IPhone 5 won't hold Date & Time "set automatically."

Date & Time, when "set automatically," arbitrarily resets itself to a date and time in August.
Setting Date & Time manually works fine.
There is a thread on this glitch on the Apple Forums. It's happening in all time zones.
Apple says it's a Verizon issue.
Verizon claims it's an Apple software problem.
Anyone got a definitive answer for this?

This is the same info I posted in the Apple forum about my attempts to resolve this issue so far...
So this is what I have tried...
Turn off Auto Time and set time manually.... Fail
Reset All Settings (under General menu).... Fail
Leave disconnected from Wi-Fi.... Fail
Restore software and set up from back up.... Fail
Restore and set up as new phone... Fail
Replace phone at Apple Store... Fail
Replace sim card at Verizon store.... Fail
Restore firmware using a fresh downloaded file... Fail
Restore firmware and set up from scratch with a new iTunes account without downloading any apps, contacts or anything.... Fail
I have verified the date/time settings on my 2 month old MacBook Pro I use to sync phones
I have verified the date/time settings on my Linksys router (not that that matters because the time changes when its not connected to the router)
All of the above has been done on both a white and a black 16gig iPhone 5 on Verizon...
The date/time for both is always behind 14 days 18 hours 48 minutes and 19 seconds so that tells me it is keeping time with something... Lets collectively compile all this info so we can get to the bottom of this problem and get it worked out quickly

HI franklyhollywood:
Joomla is easy to set up (install) once Mysql and PHP is properly set up. CMS (Content Management
System) websites are the way to go. I am migrating all my sites to CMS, either full CMS or Partial
CMS. The Server Guys (and Girls) can help you get it set up properly. If you don't want the hassle
of configuring MySql and PHP on your Mac, use the preconfigured MAMP setup:
http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html
I am only interested in the final product (the website), so I chose MAMP to handle the database and
scripting language (PHP) chores. MAMP can be Installed, configured and up and running in minutes,
leaving me free to develop and make ready my sites for uploading to their eventual home on my
hosting provider's server.
