Ical appts. w/alerts are one hour off on iphone - how to fix?

when I create an appointment in ical, it syncs fine with iphone, but the alert (and the appointment) are set for one hour later than what they are set for in ical. The timezone on both is accurate...Any ideas?

Thx Bernard,
You are very helpful
When you went through the steps, were any of the settings different to those that I suggested?
......Yes, Time zone was uncheck in iCal and MM
I don't think you mentioned importing previously. Where are the events originally created?
.....I have a large spreadsheet of college athletic games that we keep in Excel and I import to iCal, they are ALWAYS one hour off after imported to iCal. Long before iPhone and MM too!
I don't see that MobileMe is especially different to dotmac - except that you now have explicit control over the time zone of the calendar (whereas it used to be set to the one from which you originally published).
...Honestly the TZ Support is a HUGE pain and causes Much more trouble for all than anything it is suppose to help with..., been that way ever since iCal came out...
One hour time differences often crop-up on a phone and are usually to do with daylight savings issues, but you don't mention a phone in your set-up so I am assuming this is not the case.
...again this one hour problem, has been an issue for me long before the iPhone and MM...
I have to say that I don't have issues with my calendars and I have these synced across different systems and devices, so for me it really is a non-issue. (I should also say that I travel frequently and don't have problems with events in multiple time zones either.)
...glad it works for you, but it appears this is an issue for many. I used Now Up-To-Date for 10+ years and NEVER had trouble with import/export/sync...
One thing I neglected to ask you is whether you do need to have time zone support - i.e. do you travel with any of the macs to which you sync or do you get invitations that originate in different time zones?
...I have no need for TZ Support even if I were and astronaut
It would also be enormously helpful if you would provide data on what version of OS X and iCal you are using.
....I am on 10.5.5 and iCal 3.0.5
Thx Much

  • Appointments from iCal syncing but they are 1 hour early on iphone.

    Anybody know the cause of this problem?
    The timezones are the same b/w iphone and iCal so I'm surprised that it's 1 hour out on the iphone.

    Don't know if you resolved the issue but I found a solution that I wrote up on my blog: http://weblog.techdad.net/2008/08/27/fix-it-outlook-calendar-and-iphone-calendar -events-hours-not-synched-correctly/
    Hope that helps,

  • Entourage- iCal events are 5 hours off

    My computer time is set to US/Central, Entourage events are US/Central, and iCal is set to US/Central. When I turn on Sync Services in Entourage, events that hit iCal are 5 hours off.
    I believe Sync Services is assuming the times on the events in Entourage are all GMT, even though they show up in iCal as US/Central.
    Is there a way to resolve this? I've tried it on 3 different machines, and it's broken on all of them.

    FIXED. Special thanks to Tarun Reddy for noticing that the problem
    only appears when using a case-sensitive filesystem. I used fs_usage
    to log all file accesses and wrote a bunch of scripts to get me a list
    of possible files. I had a list of 536 candidate files after the
    scripting and went through all of them by hand until I found it.

  • Calendar timeline one hour off

    In iOS 5 on an iPad 2, using calendar after converting to Eastern Standard Time using the Week View, the Timeline is one hour off (iCal didn't register the time change). When the time is 3:00 EST, the Timeline registers 4:00 pm EST.

    I had the same issue - not with Yahoo but Apple's own iCal and MobileMe.
    This worked for me:
    Go to iPhone Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Time Zone Support
    Change Time Zone Support selector to "OFF" then back to "ON".
    Exit Settings
    NB: NOT Settings>General>Date & Time
    My Time Zone Support selector was "on", however Time Zone showed Etc/GMT -4
    When I selected Time Zone Support to "off" and then back to "on", Time Zone changed to show "New York" (my local area). Calendar events then displayed the same times as iCal/MobileMe.

  • IOS 4.2.1 - Calendar alerts *still* one hour early - help?

    Upgraded to 4.2.1 in hopes of squashing this bug, but no go. Yes, I have tried all the obvious solutions: manual time, automatic time, making sure time zones are the same for the clock and the calendar prefs. Nothing works. Any advice?
    Just to be clear -- this is not an alarm bug, and these events aren't recurring.
    While were at it, can we change the naming convention of "on date of event" to "at time of event"? I mean, really... isn't every alarm set at various points throughout a single day "on date of event"?

    Last night I updated my iPhone 3GS to the iOS 4.2. Now, the phone shows one hour early. Also the events on iCal on the phone show one hour early. In the mean time, the events on iCal on my Macbook (OS 10.6.5) and on my Mobile Me account show the correct time.
    I live in Republic of Panama and we don't keep daylight savings time.
    Does anyone now how to fix this?
    Is Apple going to fix this?

  • Finder is not showing correct file in cover flow mode. The files shown in the top panel are one file off.

    finder is not showing correct file in cover flow mode. The files shown in the top panel are one file off.

    This problem occurs after I move a file or files to trash. If I remove one file, then the sequence is one file off, if I move two files to trash then the sequence istwo file off. For example, if I delete file 1 and highlight (click on) file 3, then the cover flow panel shows file 2, when it should show file 3.

  • All of the birthday's and holidays on my iPhone are one day off.

    All of the birthday's and holidays on my iPhone are one day off (one day early).  I sync it with my iPad and my iPad is correct.  Does anyone know why my iphone is one day off?

    Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
    The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
    However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one

  • Apps are one hour behind

    Recently -- I guess it might've been around last week when the time changed -- I noticed that my apps on my iPod touch were showing events that happened just seconds ago show as being posted "one hour ago." For instance, on the Facebook app, my news feed always says new posts are "one hour ago" when it should be "one minute ago" or "half an hour ago."
    Same goes for Tweetie, Words with Friends, etc. I've checked, I DO have the latest version of the software on my iPod. I've restarted the ipod touch, I've tried deleting the facebook app and reinstalling it to see if that would fix it, and it didn't.
    My boyfriend has the iPhone and he definitely isn't having this problem.
    Is anyone else? Any thoughts on how to fix?

    Believe I found the issue .. this tech note indicates that
    the JVM needs to be updated for CF to get the correct daylight
    savings time

  • Has there been an update or fix to the digital signature time zone off set being one hour off?

    Has there been an update or fix to the digital signature time zone off set being one hour off? I have seen that in the forum that this was identified as a bug back in June 2012. Any updates on this as it is still occurring in my version of Acrobat X with all updates applied. Thanks.

    Try restoring from the backup created at the beginning of the sync process:
    Without connecting your phone, open iTunes, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
    Connect your phone, right-click on the name of your phone when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes
    Select Restore from backup, choosing your most recent backup to restore from
    Disconnect your phone and confirm that your photos are back
    Go back to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and re-enable automatic syncing.

    On your iPad - go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Load Remote Images>On. Try that first.
    You can also try a reset. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit the mail and all other apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
    In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
    So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
    And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

  • Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.5 Install Error:  "Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid".  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    I had Acrobat Standard 9.5 on a laptop that broke.  Adobe Acrobat Standard is paid for and all I need. I had to get a new PC (Windows 8.1) and I did downloaded Standard 9.5 but when I went to install it the installer gave me an “Error applying transforms please ensure specified transform paths are valid”.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Rahul,
    No error numbers other than the message I mentioned previously.
    I tried the transforms repair and it reported no Acrobat product (correct, none yet installed) or no administrative privileges (I am the administrator and have done previous administrative actions).
    When I unzip the Acrobat file this is what is in the setup ini file:
    [Startup]
    RequireOS=Windows XP
    RequireMSI=3.0
    RequireIE=6.0.2600.0

    Hi, my toddler pressed some keys on my keyboard and now some of my symbol keys such as comma, hyphen etc do not work. Others such as . and ? Are fine. Does anyone know how to fix? Thanks

    You may have this sorted out by now - but if not try resetting your Language to English.  I had the issue and found the emoji keyboard was set to spanish.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
