How do I get my calendar to adapt to time zone change?

My calendar is run in MS Outlook on my windows office computer and syncs via Exchange 2003 server to my iPhone.
I live in Europe. I recently attended a business event in the States. All my appointments were in my Outllook calendar in local time. But when I got to the States and changed my iPhone to local time, all my appointments were shifted by 9 hours, this being the time difference.
The only hack I could find to get them to display properly was to pretend my phone was still on European time and reset this manually to the local time in California. Only then did the appointments appear at the right time.
Surely there must be a better way? Otherwise, what's the point of all the settings option for local time support?

Was the objective to have the appointments and calendar show in Euro-time while in California with the time shifted +9 hours while the device time was on California time?  As  i understand it, Location services controls the device getting it's own time from the local cell infrastructure, and calendar time zone support would allow the calendar to be displayed in a time zone other than that physical time zone the device is  present in....everytime this question comes up I have to review these two kb's...they are not light reading

  • In ios 7, how do I get the calendar to open each time in list mode?

    In ios 7, on the iphone 5, how do I get the calendar to open each time in list mode? It always opens is strange new mode and goes to list mode only if I click the search icon.

    For some weird reason beyond my comprehension, and I am a smart fellow I think; Adobe starting with acrobat/reader 8 has decided to hid the menu icon Ribbon (i guess you would call it) until you have a PDF open. In versions past if you had these icons on the screen you could actually use them to open Pdf's or create pdfs from scans.
    Pesonally for me its a dumb idea. But was justified as allowing for more screen area to view. The guy that thought up the idea should be taken out behind the barn and given 10 licks for stupid ideas. :-)

  • How do I get a calendar notification with travel time/traffic info?

    Hi everybody,
    I saw an IOS 8 screenshot showing a calendar reminder in the lock screen that not only showed the upcoming calendar event info, but also said something like "to be in time, you should leave at 11:31". On the web page showing that screenshot, it was also said that this travel time info takes the current traffic info into account.
    When I add a calendar event, I'm setting the proper event address plus the travel time option based on my location, and I'm also setting a calendar alert to something like "Notify me 1h prior leaving time". And actually, I'm getting that notification - but without that neat info when to leave exactly (which seems to include the current traffic info as said above)!
    To be clear, I'm not talking about the traffic conditions WIDGET. This works flawlessly on my iPhone 5s with IOS 8. I'm talking about a lock screen calendar reminder that included the time to leave for an appointment!
    I'm inserting the screenshot here (it's actually in German as I am from Germany):
    Can anybody help on how to get those calendar reminders?
    Best,
    Gero

    Hello gerofromronnenberg
    To see that information, you would need to swipe down to bring up Notification Center to bring up the time that you should need to leave your current location.

  • How do I get my calendar to sync on iCloud?  I changed a calendar event on my iPhone 4 and it has not changed in Entourage on my MacBook.  This is supposed to be automatic, isn't it?

    Entourage will not sync with iCloud, not now, probably not ever, time to change.

  • How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    I've done all of these things, and nothing is working. I understand how the cloud is supposed to work, and I understand how to sync via itunes. For some reason, the calendar is the only thing that isn't syncing.
    I have support on the phone now. We've figured out that if I make a calendar entry on icloud from my PC, it follows through on my phone and ipad. Same if I make the entry on my iphone - it follows to icloud on my PC and ipad. But when I make the entry on the ipad, it doesn't follow through to my iphone or icloud on my PC.
    I've had a tech walking me through all of this for about a half hour now. Can't figure it out. He's checking with his senior tech, has me on hold right now. It's looking like I may have to make a trip to my nearest Apple store, 45 minutes away.

    Enable iCloud on both, and Calendars on the iPhone should sync with iCal on the Mac wirelessly.

  • How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

    After instal of Maverick, iPhone data syncs to iCloud, but not to computer.  How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

    Sounds like your Mac is not logged into the same iCloud account that your phone is.  When Mavericks is installed it prompts you for an AppleID during setup. 
    Unfortunately and confusingly it then uses that AppleID to help you set up the Apple Store, iCloud, and Messages even though many users do not use the same AppleID for all of those services.  This is particularly true of familys that share one AppleID for the "Store" but use separate AppleID's for each users iCloud data.
    Therefore, put your iPhone next to your Mac and go to "Settings" > "iCloud".  Make sure that the iCloud account listed on your iPhone is the same as the one listed when you go to "System Preferences" > "iCloud" on your Mac.  If they match (or not) then click "sign out" on your Mac to disconnect the account.  Then, on the Mac (still in the iCloud preference pane), log (back) into the same iCloud account being used on your iPhone and enable the same set of services that are enabled on your iPhone (particularly calendar and contacts).
    Then, open the Contacts application on the mac and iCal on the Mac and walk away for a few minutes to allow the data to sync.  You may then want to create a test calendar event and change a contact to see if they sync up.
    One additional thought is to make sure that your iPhone is set to "Push" for iCloud. That will assure that it's syncing immediately while you are testing this.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do i get my calendar, which is on my ipad, onto my iphone? I lost my calendar after the upgrade today.

    How do I get my calendar, which is on my ipad, onto my iphone?  I lost my iphone calendar after the upgrade this morning.

    I have iCloud set on my iphone, ipad and mac. But, for some reason, my mac has no calendar and now neither does my iphone.  Fortunately my ipad has my calendar - but I must get that back on my iphone.  I haven't synced by ipad to anything manually - but I assume icloud should have everything.  When I added an appt on my iphone calendar - it immediately duplicated on my ipad.

  • The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    iCloud wasn't on, I accepted iTunes offer to upgrade to 6.1.1.
    Next time I went to sync through iTunes, iCloud was on.
    Your advice appears to have solved my problem...for now.
    Thank you.
    Historically, the upgrade to 6.0 lost all of my contacts.
    A manual restore brought them back.
    Tech support said "Oh, that happens sometimes, you have to back up before upgrades", fortunately I do.
    Again, thank you for the help.

  • How can you get a calendar back after deleting it

    How can you get a calendar back after deleting it

    You will have to restore the device from a backup on icloud.  (this assumes you have backups turned on in settings>icloud)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  This will erase your device.  Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
