GMT time zone keeps coming up

When entering an appointment in the calendar, it automatically comes up as GMT Time Zone. I have tried various options; gone to the Apple Store, and checked online. Response is that it's a bug with iOS8 and a fix is coming. Is that the case? I believe I only started having this problem after going to the iOS8 software.

This is a well known problem, one post has over 35 pages. Basically it looks like an iOS problem with certain external calendar systems (Google Calendar being the most common). Hopefully Apple will fix it some day.

Always return GMT Time Zone in Bundle Image Deployment

I have application that need to get window PC time zone, when use Bundle Image Deployment (include runtime jre), it always return GMT time zone no matter which time zone I set on my PC. After I replace runtime/jre in the image folder with complete jre, then it returns time zone correctly. Is it a bug in bundle deployment?
javafx.runtime.version: 2.2.7-b01
jdk1.7.0_17
window 8 64bit
Thanks.

I am experiencing similar type of issue. I subscribed to a Calendar which has scheduled meeting from my time zone and different time zone. When I subscribe in OS X, it shows flawlessly on local time. But when I do it in IOS 7, it shows MST as-is in EST time zone and no matter we play around all the time zone setting in General tab or Mail/Calendar tab. It's not helping.
Appears to be a bug in IOS 7. It needs to be reported to Apple.

Why are my apple calendars using GMT time zone?

My iPhone and iPad are using the GMT time zone. Why???

I'd like to bump this and add to it....We have a 30Mbps broadband connection with Aiport Express providing the wireless. When Apple TV is streaming Netflix, all other devices are virtually useless. I test each device on speedtest.net and they are all now 1-2Mbps and less, often stalling out. HOWEVER, if I stream Netflix on my wirelessly connected Mac Mini, all other devices consistently test at 22Mbps+. What is going on? I'm tempted to toss my Apple TV. Any time someone uses the Apple TV, the internet slows to a crawl, AirPlay stutters and stops, etc. Shut off Apple TV and we can simultaneously stream Netflix, etc. on 5 devices and the internet runs smooth. It makes no sense why Apple TV is doing this but I have tested it and 100% of the time, Apple TV is the culprit.

Time Zone keeps defaulting to GMT

I have a problem. My MacBook Pro running 10.5.8 won' retain the proper time. I am in time zone PST and whenever i reset the time to the correct PST time AND zone it does not work.
What is the fix, it looks like a software bug to me.

Hi Steven,
In the Finder head to the "Go" menu, choose "Go to Folder..." and type in /etc
Now look for the "localtime" folder (within the etc folder) and drag it to trash. (It will ask you to authenticate yourself as someone with admin permissions when you do this).
Now go to System Preferences (under the Apple menu) and set your date, time zone etc up again.
The problem usually occurs because of an issue arising from an earlier migration.
( This achieves the same result as the terminal approach mentioned in the other link, and is somewhat quicker and easier to perform)
Cheers

ICal events stuck on GMT time zone on 10.7.5

I have mac OS X 10.7.5. When I download an invite from Evite, or TripIt. The items comes to my iPhone in the correct timezone, but not on my iMac. My iMac defaults to GMT. i have updated the preferecens, added time zone support, and it still loads in GMT. How do I fix this? iCal is version 5.0.3. I think the issue only comes when I download invitations from others.

First since your iMac is running OS 10.7.5, you have an Intel-based iMac, and yu posted this thread in a forum for PowerPC (pre-Intel-Based) iMacs. So you might not get many responses.
I have one suggestion, and I'm not sure it will help, but try this and see if it helps.
Open your System Preferences. Clcik on Date and Time, make sure you have the correct time zone setting, the click the open lock in the bottom leftof the window, to lock the settings from being changed. To open the lock later, you'll need totype in your system password.
I doubt this the actual correct fix for your problem, but it might help in the mean time.
Good luck.

Iphone 5C setting appointments in GMT time zone, not my time zone

Why is my iPhone 5C now recording my calendar appointments in GMT time, not my time zone. I started happening a few weeks ago. I just updated the iOS to version 8.1.2 and it is still happening. Any suggestions?

See this thread, ongoing for several months: iOS 8 Calendar on iPhone showing GMT times for new events.

I have a new mac book air and every time i start up the computer it loads all my emails, somewhere around 10,000. Even though I delete them, which take a long time, they keep coming back? How do I delete all my old emails? thank you

I have a problem with my Macbook air which keeps reloading all my old emails to my inbox. Even thought i delete them, which takes a long time, over 10,000...they keep coming back? How do I delete old messages? Thank you

look for an option to check "remove messages from server" or similar.

Opening application for the first time warning keeps coming

I've installed VLC player and amongst other media files set mp4 to automatically open with it. When I double click a mp4 file it asked 'You are opening the application 'VLC Player' for the first time' etc. Pressed ok. After that it didn't ask that any more.
However, every time I reboot my Mac and double click a mp4 file again, I keep getting that 'You are opening the application 'VLC Player' for the first time' warning popup again the first time I want to open a media file. Then it's gone again, until I reboot my Mac again.
Every time I reboot and want to play a media file I always get that 'first time' popup. It only happens with VLC Player. I've uninstalled it completely and reinstalled it again, but that 'first time' popup for VLC Player keeps coming every time I reboot and upon the first time I open a media file.
How can I fix that?

Did you copy VLC to Applications folder? When you download VLC, you get it in a DMG file, that you have to open, and here's VLC. However, you don't have to copy the VLC copy you find in it, but you have to drag the VLC icon to the Applications icon:
Then, drag the VLC DMG file you find in the Desktop, drag it to Trash and delete the VLC installer from Downloads folder. Finally, open VLC from Applications folder

Getting today's date in GMT time zone

Hi,
I have a simple question, but am confused how to do it:
I need the current GMT date (as a Date object) ..how do I do it?
Date date = new Date();
This returns the current date but according to the timezone of the system time & not GMT.
Using SimpleDateFormat comes close but it returns as a String object:
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("some format");
dateFormat.setTimeZone(new SimpleTimeZone(0, "GMT"));
Date date = new Date();
String dateAsString = dateFormat.format(date);
This gets the current GMT date but as a String object, but I want it as a Date object.
Can you please throw some light on this? I guess there should be simple way to do it or am overlooking something.
Thanks!

I don't think Calendar is useful here.
"Current date as GMT" is meaningless. Current date (and time) is just "now." Timezone is not part of the picture. If you want to present the current date/time in GMT, then....
Date date = new Date();
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm z");
System.out.println(df.format(date));
df.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
System.out.println(df.format(date));

Time zone in message monitoring (GMT)

Hi all -
as I understand, all messages in XI are saved with timestamps within GMT time zone.
This results in having a possible mismatch between displays in Adapter Engine (e.g., message monitoring) and Integration Engine (e.g., SXMB_MONI), the letter using the correct system time zone / personal time zone.
Is there any way to avoid GMT display in message monitoring?
Thanks,
Stefan

Dear Stefan,
I had encountered a similar issue with discrepancy in time between Adapter engine and the integration engine.
Solution:I checked the user profile settings in SU01 and changed the default setting ( Personal and System time) to have the time I needed.
The IE takes the Personal time / system time, however AE takes only the system time. So you have to make sure both the values are defined correctly for the effect to take place and then the AE and IE display time will be in sync. AE does not look into the personal time. So define the system time correctly and Personal time would be mandatory as IE looks for it.
Let me know if you need clarification.
Thanks.

Create events over multiple time zones

Hello again,
How do I create events over multiple time zones? For instance, a plane leaves on GMT time zone and lands on GMT+5.
If iCal doesn't allow this, what is your suggested approach in this case?
Thanks in advance!

You're right, iCal doesn't allow this.
I just add the abbreviation for the timezone at the end of the title. For example: "AA Flight 407 - CDT", keeping in mind that the block of time for that event showing in iCal is always in that time zone.
It's not ideal, but it works for me.

How to change Final Cut Server's time zone?

Hello all:
Is there a way to change Final Cut Server's time zone? It seems the software uses the GMT time zone as its reference. Therefore, whenever it runs on a computer located in another time zone, it still uses the GMT based timestamp.
So, for example, as my time zone is GMT less 3 hours, my FCSvr is always stamping the time as 3 hours in advance. Sometimes, this is really annoying.
My best regards,
JP.

I tried resetting Mac OS X's time zone directly in the terminal. Didn't work. After trying several times to set up another time zone, FCSvr suddenly was able to work with the PST time zone.
I was able to have a workaround by setting GMT (or PST) as my time zone, turning off the automatic date&time setting and manually setting the time, all at the date&time System Preferences.
Anyway, I don't think this is a "best practices" procedure, as FCSvr should be able to work normally with the server machine's time.
Any insights on this will be highly appreciated.
JP.

Time Zone Difference in _api/Web/regionalsettings

Hi All,
I have subscribed to a share point O365 Developer site.
When I checked the www.myste.com/_api/Web/regionalsettings for my Farm and site collections it is showing GMT-1 (Time zone).
<updated>2015-04-14T11:56:21Z</updated> (Current tIME isd 5.31 pm)(gmt+5.30 )
Kindly let me know why it is showing the Time zone difference.
Regards
Koti

and also In one virtual meachine.
In all sharepoint sites even if I change regional settings also.
www.myste.com/_api/Web/regionalsettings
WWW.virtualsystem.com/sites/sitename/_api/Web/regionalsettings
WWW.o365site/sites/sitenmae/_api/Web/regionalsettings
www.mycomapnysite.com/sites/sitename/_api/Web/regionalsettings
All these showing same time zone UTC, If I am not wrong please try same from your end.
Each of share point site have different time zone and hosted in different places(one by Microsoft O365,One in my system, One more in my virtual
system,one by my company).
If I open this link it is showing GMT Time Zone irrespective of My sharepoint site Reginal settings.
I have observed also in _api/web/RegionalSettings/timeZone
What indicates the Bias,day light Bias , and standara bias is there any thing Ihave modify while getting time using this web api.
Any one let me know what the zime zone APi returs, If it is UTC is there any article shows that.
is any specific reason behind this.

Reg Custom Time Zone in java

Hi ,
Have configured the custom Time Zone (SAST) in the Linux box.
The sh clock of the Linux box gives the custom Time Zone (SAST).
Whereas the java application gives the date in GMT Time Zone.
Noticed from the java docs that, if the custom time zone string (SAST) doesn't match the syntax ( like GMT +Value or GMT-Value) , "GMT" is used.
Even if we create SimpleTimeZone with offset from GMT, it displays the date in GMT format. It wont display the custom Time Zone.
Could anybody please suggest me a way to support Custom Time Zone in java?
(i.e.) The java application should give the date in custom Time Zone (SAST) instead of GMT format.
FYI : Java version : "1.5.0_17"
================== Snippet from java docs====================================
The format is locale independent and digits must be taken from the Basic Latin block of the Unicode standard. No daylight saving time transition schedule can be specified with a custom time zone ID. If the specified string doesn't match the syntax, "GMT" is used.
Java doc URL : http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/TimeZone.html

hi Kumar,
You can change the timezone of the JVMs using the -Duser.timezone
parameter, add -Duser.timezone=<timezone> to all dispatcher and
server processes in your systems, using the configtool
1) open config tool
2) select yes
3) select "cluster-data->instanceXXX->serverXXX/Dispatcher"
4) in "Java parameters" add new line "-Duser.timezone=<timezone>"
5) click "Apply changes"
6) restart your instance
Let me know how is the result
Regards
