ICal time zone problems with 10.10

I travel all over the world so I use multiple time zones for iCal and until Yosemite I never had any problems.  Now iCal for some reason will automatically select the time zone at the top of the list of time zones regardless of my current location.  Biggest problem is that iCloud is now storing that same info so that when I enter an event on my iPhone 5s (8.3) it does not accept the phones current location, it accepts whatever time zone is at the top of the list from iCal on my MBP.  Because the iCal on the iPhone does not allow a selection of time zones I then have to go into iCal on the MPB to change or verify what time zone the phone set.
I never ever had any problems in the past until Yosemite.  Know I can delete my iCal plist, but that will remove "ALL" time info on everything.
Does anyone know if there is a way to remove the time zone list without effecting current events?
The other problem I have is that as countries around the world are changing from standard time to daylight time or the other way around.  iCal is not allowing me to set new events days, weeks or months in advance to the time zone at that time.  So that I no longer can tell if I have selected say Standard Eastern Australian Time or Daylight Eastern Australian Time ... that goes for nearly every county.

Have the same with a German timezone. Both computers are in German time, published calendar is in US time. Looks like the calendar that you access online is using the US server time as reference.

  • ICal time zone problems in Leopard

    I cannot get ICal to display events in my current computer time zone (Chicago). Does not matter if time zone support is on or off, it always displays events two hrs behind me (Pacific time). If I change my computer time zone, ICal adjusts accordingly. Any suggestions?

  • Time Zone Problem with the Data

    Post Author: sde
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    We are working on Remedy System. It basically stores all the data for different parts of the world into the database. While storing the date and time information it automatically converts it into PST( Pacific Standar Time ). But the reports to be made should be available to all the users from different time zones and they should see the date and time data as per their time zone. So do you have any idea about how can I convert data available from the database(PST) into the time-zone(will be varying) specific to the user? Is there any feature in WebI which will support this? I have tried with the preference-timezone option but that is not changing the data. Please reply if anyone has any idea.

    Something in your installation has gone awry. It indicates that some program in your PATH is yet using Java 1.3 (maybe you have some java.exe in c:\windows that is using Java 1.3)

  • Ical time zone problem

    I travel between the east and west coast frequently, carrying my iphone and ibook. I schedule appointments at the time they will be wherever it is I am, without thinking about where I am when I am scheduling them. I want my ical on both devices to keep appointments exactly as I set them, but it keeps changing on one or the other..and now my ical on my laptop is showing west coast at month glance and east coast if I click on the individual appointment! help!

    Instead of setting it to bejing time zone, Go to settings, general, date and time, turn off set automatically, then tap set date and time and do it manually.

  • KOrganizer time zone problem

    I'm having this weird time zone problem with the KOrganizer Calendar. I'm in Chile and the goverment extended the daylight saving time for a couple of months (until May 7). I already installed the latest tzdata 2011e-1 package (from testing) which contains the updated rules for America/Santiago.
    Now if I create an event in Calendar, let's say tomorrow April 8 starting at 10:00 AM, everything is fine. But if I restart the application the event is shifted by one hour (11:00 AM) as if KOrganizer was using an outdated time zone database. When I click on the event to bring up the edit dialog the right time reappears! If I save the event the time is corrected and everything is fine again unless I restart the app.
    Has anyone had a similar problem? The only thing I can guess why this is happening is that KDE somehow uses more than one source for the time zone info.

    There are a couple of ways you could do it.
    Way 1:
    Search for a file by name 'glogin.sql' on your client work station and add the following statement
    alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure you save the file. This change will apply to all users who will log into the database using SQL*PLUS from your machine.
    Way 2:
    Create a shortcut and place it some where (for example on the 'DESKTOP').
    Right click on the short cut and choose properties.
    Change the text corresponding to the 'Start in' box to reflect the current location of the shortcut.
    Create a file by name 'login.sql' and place it in the same folder as the shortcut.
    Edit the file and add the following line.
    alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure that you save the file.
    When you double click the shortcut to start SQL*Plus and login, the script 'login.sql' is executed.

  • ICal time zone support

    Forgive me if this is repetitive. I do not regularly read these discussion groups. I've just noticed a little problem with iCal. We recently moved to another state and another time zone, specifically, from the Central to the Eastern time zone. Time Zone Support has always been clicked "on" in our iCal. Our iMac clock and time zone are set properly, to the Eastern time zone. I just noticed today that the iCal time zone on all my "events" is selected as "Central U.S." But they show up at all the correct times (i.e., Eastern U.S.) on iCal. Is this what Time Zone Support is supposed to do? Convert all the events to the time zone in which you are located? To add to my confusion, I just got an iPhone 3G, it's set to Eastern Time, and all the events synced from my at-home iCal show up one hour earlier than they should on the iPhone iCal. Any suggestions? Thank you!

    suz..
    I just did the following and it seemed to correct the issue:
    - made sure my .me and iCal apps were set to the same timezone
    - turned off timezone support, closed iCal, turned timezone support back on
    - made sure i was not using 'floating timezone'
    that seemed to clear things up.

  • Ical time zone is wrong

    i am syncing with google calendar on 1 MAC desktop, 1 ipad, 1 macbook pro, 2 iphones, 3 PC computers running windows. everything was working fine but recently ical on the mac desktop is wrong. the events time zone is shown as "central africa time" where all the other are in "egypt cairo" time zone. when i click on any event and edit its time zone to cairo, few seconds to reload and then goes back again on ical to "central africa time". where is the problem here. i cannot change ical time zone from "central africa time" to "cairo egypt". there is no feature for that. i turned on the time zone in ical and on the top right the time zone is "cairo egypt" but all the events are on "central africa time". it is correct on google but on ical is not, and i do not know why.

    Hi,

    I suggest you use Tripoli  (EET) as your location as I do not believe OSX's DST definition is up to date with this change in Egypt's timezone.

  • Time Zone issue with 7.0 and DB2

    Hi,
    We are having a time zone issue with weblogic server 7.0 and DB2 database. I would really appreciate if somebody provides a solution for this issue.
    Our db2 DB is located in PST time zone and weblogic server is located in EST time zone.
    When we access current timestamp from db2, we are getting PST time converted to EST and EST time zone attached with timestamp value.
    I tried to use resultset.getTimeStamp (1,<calendar>), unfortunately this method is not supported in the DB2 driver version I am using.
    We want to get same value as returned by db2 with db2 time zone not weblogic server time zone.
    And also when we add new record with timestamp column through web service, regardless the time zone value sent by web service client ".Net" ,
    Weblogic server converts the java.util.Date value to weblogic time zone and stores in the db.
    For example, client sent 17:00 hours CST, but when it gets stored in db through weblogic ws, weblogic converts 17:00 to 18:00 EST and stores in database as 18:00 hours without any time zone. When we read this value back, we are getting it 18:00 EST only not 17:00 CST.
    This is fine as long as writing and reading by same weblogic server. If another weblogic server instance in PST time zone read this value, it takes as 18:00 PST.
    Due to this our application always shows timestamp hours differently.
    Could some body help me to fix this problem, we are getting this problem in production after we moved our DB2 location to different time zone.
    Thanks

  • ICal time zone reverting back

    I have just arrived in a new country, but when I look for that place's time zone and select it, the next time I open the iCal time zone, it has reverted back to a previous one.
    Even more strangely, when I change my time zone in the top right corner of iCal to Greenwich Mean Time, all my entires move suddenly to irrelevant times that are not in line with the chosen time zone...
    How do I categorically select and save the time zone once and for al, so I don't have to worry about this strange behavior (which is probably caused by me doing something wrong)?
    I would appreciate any help ...

  • Time Zone issues with iCal 2.0.3?

    I've been using iCal for a while now, and haven't had any problems until just recently. For some reason, meeting notices sent to me from Outlook (Windows XP) now appear in iCal with times for Africa (I am based in Arizona, and the people sending me the invitations are also based in the same office in Arizona). I have Time Zone Support turned ON in iCal, and the times on the PCs are set for the proper time zone as well.
    The other problem is that when I reply to the invitation, Mail sends the acceptance like before. The sender receives this acceptance as an email (with my time zone being in Africa instead of Arizona), but Outlook no longer registers/updates the response.
    Is anyone else out there having these issues? I have all of my Apple software up-to-date. Thanks.
    G5 dual 2.3GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   1.5GB RAM, 2nd 250GB SATA internal HD

    I don't know if this helps anyone, but I went ahead and turned time zone support OFF. I still get the meeting invitations which are off by 7 hours, but when I accept the invitation, it shows the correct time for Arizona but still has Africa in parentheses after it. It is only a workaround, but at least I know what the correct time of the meeting should be. Does Apple know that this latest release of iCal is seriously flawed, and are they going to do anything to fix this problem?
    It is frustrating because iCal used to work flawlessly with Outlook up until recently, and nothing has changed on my end.

  • Changing date and time is wrong with time zone problem

    Okay, searched some of the forums, but didn't get the most correct answer to this:
    I just imported all my photos into Aperture from iPhoto (chose to have Aperture manage files as I don't plan on using iPhoto any longer. When I imported the files, I decided to do some organizing by date into folders. no problem.
    In some of my projects, I found some files that I imported from scans or got from others who had a film roll and processed it at a lab, and the dates from those files aren't the dates that the event took place. I went into Metadata>Adjust date and time, and changed the date (not so much the time I'm worried about), and checked the "change the masters" little box, too.
    After I close out of that box, the picture has the wrong date. I've determined this is because of the time zone support. I currently live in Japan, and I would like my photos here to show up as the date in the place they were taken. I think the date I enter, it thinks is the date I'm currently in (GMT +9), but aperture chooses to convert the date as if I was saying "hey, the picture I took happened on "date" in GMT +0:00)" which then makes it look in the metadata view as if it happened a day earlier.
    Any imported photos come in as the correct date and time and correct time zone, as far as I can see. It's just when I change the date and time it thinks I mean to have aperture convert it to GMT + 0:00. (but on a little more of a funny side... older pictures that happened in other time zones back in the states it lists the correct date and time for when the picture was taken, but "says" it's GMT +9:00) (another issue I'll deal with later maybe!)
    Hope I've described it in such a way that you can get it.

    I changed time and now my MacBook won't work

  • ICal time zone support problem

    my problem is not that it goes out of sync, but according to the iCal help, there is supposed to be a "pop-up menu in the upper right corner of the iCal window." I have no idea what that means, because i don't see a thing.
    I am still on tiger, btw.
    thanx!

    caitanya,
    In order for you to display that selection open iCal>Preferences...>Advanced and choose [✓] Turn on time zone support.

  • Curve 8520 not syncing OK with OUTLOOK 2007 - Time Zone problems

    I have a BB Curve 8520 with OS 5.0.0.136
    BB Desktop Manager is Version 7.1.0.33
    Desktop PC OS is WINDOWS 7
    MS Office OUTLOOK 2007
    Time for W7 set to automatic internet update
    Time zone for W7/Outlook2007: (-3) Buenos Aires
    Time for BB 8520 set to MANUAL (same time as W7 set manually - No network time update)
    Manually set BB Time Zone: (-3) Buenos Aires (No auto time zone update)
    I do not travel anywhere where I may need automatic time zone change.
    The Desktop is set not to sync time from BB with the Desktop PC time.
    I set up an appointment in OUTLOOK 2007 at 08:00 hs. When I sync calendar (biderectionally) with the BB, the appointment in BB appears one hour late => 09:00 hs.
    If I set an appointment in BB (say 09:00) and sync calendar, it appears in OUTLOOK 2007 one hour ahead (08:00)
    If I set BB Time Zone to (-4) Santiago, then both appointment times are the same.
    Any clue as to how to solve this strange behavior will be most welcome!
    With BB AND DESKTOP PC times equal, and both BB AND DESKTOP PC Time Zone set to the same (say (-3) Buenos Aires), appointment times should be the same in the BB and the Desktop PC.

  • Why is iCal Time Zone Support hidden?

    Last week my wife sent me an iCal appointment for 2pm but I received it as 11am. On checking her iPhone she found the same time, 11am. We had both been overseas recently. On our return we had reset our time zones on our iPhone's and laptops to Auto so no problem there. Obviously we were very puzzled.
    I then checked the Apple support page and found a lot of people had the same problem with Mountain Lion although I'm running Mavericks.
    What I did discover was that in iCal > Preferences> Advanced is hidden a button called Time Zone Support.
    Why put it there? And why is it off by default?
    We turned it on on my Mac Book and hers then switched it off then on again on our iPhones and low and behold the appointment times changed to 2pm on all our devices.
    I don't understand why changing time and date settings or having them on Auto shouldn't adjust all native apps and hiding the setting in advanced preferences just seems ridiculous.
    Maybe that's just me?

    I'm not sure how putting something in the user Preferences for an app hides it, but...
    And why is it off by default?
    I got into an argument with someone about using time zones in Calendar. He only wanted the times to show up as local times regardless of which time zone was selected and what time zone had created the event. I think he actuall missed some appointments when travelling overseas. His assistant had set up the appointments, and when he looked at them before he left, they were listed as late in the day because he was looking at his current time zone.
    So, I guess that is why it is off by default.
