Event Times Changed

I am using iCal and syncing it to my Palm Z22 using MissingSync (6.0.2) which I'm told is the newer version that should work with Leopard. My problem is that sometimes the sync works perfectly, and sometimes it changes the time of events. All things look great on iCal, but on my Z22 some events are perfect, some will show the time as an hour ealier, and sometimes an hour later, with the correct time listed in parenthesis after the event title. Any idea why? Or, how to fix?

Any suggestions?

All Event times change with Daylight Savings time

With the time change associated with daylight savings time (March 8 2008) all my event times were changed by one hour. EG: events that were 8:45 am are now 7:45 am. I have tried using Time machine to restore to pre March 8 status,but an adjustment takes place and the events remain 1 hour ahead. I have looked through the discussions pages and don't even see the issue identified. I have looked through the menu and preference items and find nothing to help.
I am surprised not to find this a front page topic today, March 9 2008.
Can anyone offer some help ?

Michael,
I never have changed time zones. Are you suggesting I should have time zone support enabled ?
I just tried turning on Time Zone Support, then restoring my calendar using Time machine. No change here.
As I mentioned earlier, this same problem occurred in the fall (although I don't remember which way the event times moved), this time they moved forward. At the Fall change I was using a Mac G4, which I used as a target to build this machine. The only thing I can think of that makes me unique (although I'm not in that small of a group) is that I have altered one of the files in iSync to allow iSync to sync calendar events with iCal. The syncing has always worked OK.
Right now I'm leary of attempting to do anything with iSync. I'm also finding it difficult to believe I'm not one of 10,000 people experiencing the same problem, but I don't see any other posts.
I found a time zone in south america which returns my times to the correct figure, with time zone support enabled, but that looks like a deeper hole to dig out of.
Still stuck,
Bill

ICal event times changed when my mac updated time to daylight saving time

When my mac updated its time automatically to daylight saving time, the timed events in iCal all had an hour added to them. Time zone support is off in iCal. I tried changing my time zone from the system preferences (just to see what happens) and the iCal times also change. Is there any way to turn off this ridiculous and useless (to me) feature? I travel quite a bit and all iCal events are always added in local time scheduling. So there is no need for the event times to change when I change time zone!
Thanks!

I am having the same problem but it's only some of the appointments that were changed. I think some were entered after the update and perhaps those weren't changed. Very confusing.

Event times changed when daylight savings time changed - that's just wrong!

My events that were scheduled for certain times all were changed one hour back, when DST changed. Why should that happen? An event that is scheduled for 8:15 should still be 8:15, however, it automatically got moved to 7:15, as did all my other scheduled events.
Is this happening to anyone else?

Well if you are syncing they should both be set the same way. Try turning it on on the Mac and see if the events go back to their correct times.

Bug(?) with iCal - Can not change the event time

Hello all,
First of all, let me preface my question by admitting that I'm new to the Mac world, transitioning from MS environment. So please, be a bit patient
Now, on to my problem:
I have created events in iCal and I can not change the time for any event. The time that's always displayed is 15:54! I have checked the time zone setting to on/off to se if it makes a difference, but to no avail. I have also gone into preferences and under the General Tab, the Day starts at and the Day ends at: show three (3) selections; Noon, 15:54, Midnight !!???
I have changed the Show hours at a time, to see if that makes a difference, but it does not.
To add to the above mystery, I have created events with my mobile SonyEricsson K850i, with the correct time(s), date, etc., synchronized with iCal and the time changed to 15:54!!
This is a new MacBook Pro, with the latest patches! For some reason the iCal applet does not allow any changes to the time.
Any suggestions/help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I am having the exact same problem you discussed and was wondering whether you ever found a solution.
Cheers,
Anna

Event Time in iCal changed after the Event Date changed !!!!

I can not change either Date of Time of the Event because both of them will be changed to be the same value all the time.
Please see the picture below. I changed to date to 29th and the time changed to 29:00 !!!!

The Time Column in iCal look strange, too.

I always have my iCal sync with me.com and sync my iPhone with iCal.
Now I have to sync my iPhone with me.com directly to get correct information.
Could you please solve this problem?
I have to edit the event's time on either iPhone or me.com.

Greetings,
iCal depends on the computer to tell it how to interpret time and ranges of time. If you change the time arrangement on the computer this can cause issues in iCal. It looks to me like you are using a non-standard time arrangement.
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Language&Text > Formats > Region
This should NOT say "custom". If it does, choose the correct Region for your area of the world (or how you like the format to be).
Check out iCal and see if it is working.
Hope that helps.

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.

Outlook sync after Eastern Standard Time Change-All events are 1 hour late

After sync'ing with outlook this past weekend, all my iphone calendar events are 1 hour late. the Eastern Standard Time change must have affected this. The time on my phone and my laptop are the same however. Anyone experienced the same issue?

I had a similar problem with iCal, my Treo 650, and Missing Sync. I found a solution on the Missing Sync website that worked for me -- see my post at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5453855&#5453855.

Calendar events an hour early after time change. Help!

I have a Motorola phone.
When the time changed my phone said "Convert events to current time zone?" And I pushed "yes." Now EVERYTHING in my calendar is set an hour earlier! For example, my son has a class at 10:00 this morning, but in my phone it's been changed to 9:00. It's this way with every event. How can I undo this? I don't want to have to go into every event and change the time back! The clock on my phone is correct. I don't know why the calendar events got converted to an hour earlier.
Kat

I already went in and changed everything manually.
>Personal info deleted<
Kathrine, a phone calendar can be so important to keep track of daily events, so I want to make sure we get this working for you. First, I'll need to know what phone you have so I check to see if there are settings to change the Calendar settings. You can also visit vzw.com/support and select Device for support articles on your device.

Change standard view: remove event time

In iCal, a lot of visual space is wasted listing the time of an event. Fortunately, the time is unlisted in some cases (e.g., a half hour event in 'week' view), but for 1 hour events or more, the view of the event description is occluded by the start time. This time listing is redundant and unnecessary, since it is also indicated and easily visible to the left of the day columns in 'week' view, for example. Is there a way to remove the time? Any suggested workarounds so that we can see more of our event descriptions at a quick glance?
thanks in advance.

this is true, but i'm most interested in turning off times in 'week view', since times are already listed via the grid on which events lie. it sounds like a second radio button in Preferences>General should be added, called "Show/Hide event times in week view".
apple, are you listening?

Ical does not let me change event time

I use OS 10.5.2. My ical does not let me change the minutes. It always defaults to :40(ie 10.40, 8:40, etc.) and it does not let me change the day. It always defaults to day 30(ie 1/30/08, 4/30/06, etc.)
any help?
Thanks,
maguas

maguas,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I am not familiar with the MacBook Pro keyboard or the modifier keys, but try using the Up/Down arrow keys on your keyboard to make the day/time changes.
Let us know if that works.
;~)

Since Time Change, iCal and iPhone Calendar Time Are All Messed Up

Ever since the most recent daylight-savings time change, I noticed all events I created in iCal, when synced with my iPhone, became an hour off. If I edit the event on the iPhone, it stays the correct time on my iPhone, but when it syncs with iCal again, the time on iCal goes off by another hour, even though the time for the event on the iPhone stays correct. (Hopefully that makes sense) Has anyone else experienced this problem? It is incredibly annoying, because now I have no trust in any of my calendar entries as to what the correct time is.
As an example: I created an event for Sunday the 16th on iCal on my Mac for a 1-hour soccer game from 8:00PM - 9:00PM. When I synced my iPhone, I noticed a few days later that the event on my iPhone now said the event was from 9:00PM - 10:00PM...one hour off! I edited the event on my iPhone, and re-synced. Now my iPhone has the correct time (which I manually edited on the phone) but iCal now says the event goes from 7:00PM - 8:00PM. Again, an hour off, but in the reverse direction (an hour off early, rather than late). When I sync now, even though the times on the iPhone and the times on iCal don't match, they do not change...it's as if either the computer or the phone didn't recognize daylight savings time or something, and thinks it has the correct time for the event. Both my Mac and my iPhone's clocks do display the correct time and date, however, so it's not like the system clock is off. It is completely bizarre, and I entered my entire teams schedule this way, so ALL games were off, and now is completely screwed up. Please help.

Yes, I did. I posted an identical post in the iPhone forum since no one answered here. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1791145&tstart=0
The first reply solved the problem. It involved the Time Zone setting in iCal Advanced preferences for me.

Is there a way to get event times to show up in monthly view on iCal 7? There no longer is a box in the preferences to show the times.

Prior to upgrading to Os X Maverick, I could see the times of all scheduled events on the month view (there was a check box in the iCal options to show the event times). After upgrading, the times no longer show up and I don't see an option to change it. Was this an oversight? It certainly is not an upgrade over the previous version. It was very helpful to be able to glance at the calender to see the scheduled times rather than having to click on each individual event.

Sorry. Only after posting did I see that this question has been asked already and the answer given. Please ignore this post.

Recurring event times wrong by 1 hr only in iOS calendar

I just noticed that all my recurring events seemt to be one hour later in the Calendar app on my iPhone (iOS 5.1). In the iCloud calendar (on the web site) the times are correct. I don't know if this happened right after the recent "spring forward" daylight savings time change, or right after the update to iOS 5.1.
All my other events are showing the correct time. Only the recurring events are shifted one hour to the future in the iOS calendar.
Is anyone else seeing this problem? Any ideas for a fix?
(And, before you ask, my iPhone has the correct time zone setting and is configured to automatically set the time; and I haven't left my timezone in over two months.)
Dave Hein

I found the problem. When the tasks were initially created, I did not have Time Zone Support turn on in iCloud (the website) or on my iPhone or in iCal on my Mac. The events were all created over the winter, not during daylight savings time.
I turned on Time Zone support in iCloud, on my iPhone, and in iCal. That did not fix the problem. But I noticed that, in iCloud, when I turned on Time Zone support, the initial time zone it selected was "Central Standard Time". But I'm now in Central Daylight Time; so I tried setting the time zone (using the little popup map widget is tricky!) and found I could also set the Time Zone to "Central Time" -- no 'daylight' or 'standard' distinction. So I set it to Central Time.
Still no joy. But then, still in iCloud Calendar, I double clicked on one of the offending events and in the set of properties display was now a Time Zone property ... and it was still set to Central Standard Time. So I went into each event that was at the wrong time and changed the time zone from Central Standard Time to Central Time.
My guess it that "Central Time" is a time zone designation that means it will automatically switch between standard time and daylight savings time.
So, everything is working again. Hope this helps someone.

Google calendar event times are shown as -1h

Summary:
When I create a new event in the built in WP8 calendar app to a Google calendar the time of the event is being displayed as one hour earlier.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a new event in calendar. Choose one of the Google calendars configured (I have two configured in my phone). Set time as 2013/07/17 16:00. Save the event.
Expected behavior:
The event time in the agenda view is shown as 2013/07/17 16:00.
Observed behavior:
The event time in the agenda view is shown as 2013/07/17 16:00 for a few seconds. It then automatically changes to 2013/07/17 15:00.
Other notes:
I have two Google calendars configured. I can observe the same misbehavior on both.
I also have a Microsoft (@hotmail.com) calendar configured. This works as expected.
When I log into my Google calendar using a web browser, the time is shown as expected.
When I use a third party calendar (Chronos) and sync my Google account directly, the time is shown as expected.
When I use a third party calendar (Chronos) and use it simply as an interface to the built in WP calendar the time is off again showing 2013/07/17 15:00.
The timezone on my WP is set to (UTC) London.
I started noticing this perhaps a week ago. It was working as expected before.
Phone model is Nokia Lumia 925
Phone OS version is 8.0.10327.77
Notes 1-6 suggests to me that the internal calendaring module in WP8 fails to recognize DST (daylight saving time) in timezone (UTC) London or misinterprets relevant information fields on Google calendar objects.
Note 7 suggests to me that this is related to an update to my WP8 phone or a change in Google calendar API.
Any help is much appreciated, this is driving me rather nuts.
Thanks,
Kaarel

Further investigation reveals this only happens when the event is created from within WP native calendar app and disappears when I make an edit to the event in any other calendar client including Google web. So a more appropriate description of the problem would be:
"Native calendar app keeps subtracting 1h off a Google calendar event on EVERY edit"
Create an event at 2013/07/17 15:00 in WP native calendar app. Result: Event shows as 2013/07/17 15:00 in the calendar app for a few seconds, then updates itself to 2013/07/17 14:00.
Edit the event title and save in WP native calendar app. Event time moves by -1h again to 2013/07/17 13:00.
Edit the event title in Google web calendar.
Subsequent edits in WP native calendar do not mess up the time any longer. If I fix the time to what I originally intended (2013/07/17 15:00) in WP native calendar app, it stays there and shows correctly in all previously mentioned calendar viewers.
I just learned that Lumia 925 was released with GDR2 update pre-installed. This update is only now being made generally available. If the issue is secific to the CalDAV implementation in GDR2 rather than specific to my phone only, this would make a lot of angry people. I hope I'm wrong on this though as it's an extremely frustrating problem.
