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?

Calendar alert only one second.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Delete the intellisync folder, and go through the setup wizard again.
Select only calendar, one day prior and past. Set up for one way device to Outlook.
Set conflict resolution to notify you. If successful. Try the one way device to Outlook sync
for the full calendar, again with notification to you for conflict, that way you can keep
unwanted deletes from occurring. If successful. Go to the device setup wizard and
set up for the normal two way sync for all apps. I do recommend keeping the conflict
resolution to notify you. It can be very useful in keeping small problems for becoming
major. The link for deleting the folder is on the bottom of the page:

Hey Armando Stettner,
Thanks for the question, and what a great question it is!
With time zone support on, you can edit an individual event and change the time zone for that event. This list will include options for your default time zones, UTC, and "floating" - the latter of which is what you are looking for. Floating changes the event to occur at the specified time, local time.
For information on changing an event's time zone, see the following resource:

I look forward to hearing how this works for you.
Cheers!

All of my dates in Calendar are now an hour early?

I just updated the software on my iPhone and now all of my calendar dates are showing as one hour earlier than they were entered as. Is there a setting that I need to change?

Hi Jeff,
I have heard of some past incidences in which the files disappeared temporally but they always reappeared after a short time. Was that the case for you too?

Icloud calendar showing events 1 hour early

I'm accessing my Calendar in icloud using Chrome (Version 35.0.1916.153 m) from my work PC. I've noticed that sometimes the events I've entered manually have mysteriously changed time so that they appear one hour earlier than I originally entered them as. If I double click the event to open it to edit it, the correct time is shown but as soon as I close it again it is listed incorrectly.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

I wish is was that simple. Unfortunately not all of the events in my Calendar are shifted. I'm starting to wonder if it is just events I created on my iphone that I'm viewing from my pc and vice-versa

"STORED" Time On Texts With One Hour Earlier Time Wedged Between The Two Eastern Time Stamps.

The middle time stamp would coincide with Central Time, but it is not labeled as such. If that is what it represents, then it shouldn't
be on my texts since eastern Tennessee and Georgia are in the Eastern Time Zone.

budone,
In the last two days there has been a change in the format of my text messages. Previously, the texts simply had a time stamp given in Eastern Time. NOW, this is followed with the date and AM or PM time, but the time is one hour earlier and NO Time Zone notation given. Then it says, 'Stored' with a time stamp matching the date and time given in the line designated as "Eastern."
Surely, there are others who have experienced this. I hope this clears the explanation up some.

I invite people to an event I create on iCal, but in the invitation message received the invitees, the event seems to be scheduled for one hour earlier.

Hi, no matter what setting I change, I am having the same problem.
I invite people to an event I create on iCal, but in the invitation message received the invitees, the event seems to be scheduled for one hour earlier. E.g, I create the event for 14:00 GMT, yet the invitation message says 13:00 GMT. We are in the same time zone with the other people receiving the message. And I have my iCal settings as well as iCloud settings set to GMT.
Can you please help me? I'm really frustrated!

What exactly are you doing and what version are you using with OS X 10.8?

New bug in Calendar Alerts - adding eight hours to first alert when syncing to iPhone

Since the latest update to iOS, when I sync calendar events to the iPhone, not only do the first and second alert reverse themselves, but the first alert resets itself to eight or nine hours after the alert time I had set on my MacBook Calendars. Any suggestions, or ideas on how to report this continuing problem to Apple?

"Fix" for Calendar Events displaying one day early

I posted a question about this a couple of weeks ago, but can't find my original post. No way to search by user name, so I gave up looking for it after 10 or so pages. Because there are several others who have posted about the same problem, I decided to start a new discussion describing the fix that worked for me, with help from Apple Tech Support.
Background of my problem: New iPhone 4S, set up as "new phone" -- calendar events synced via MobileMe without any problems. Or so I thought. Discovered a few days later that any "All Day" event was shown on the day prior to the actual event -- US Holidays and Birthdays in particular. Events with specific start/end times were displaying on the correct day.
Checked these forums and was unable to find a solution, so I made an appointment for the following week with Tech Support to have someone call me. Fred first had me try resetting the phone. Didn't fix it.
Note: Somewhere in our troubleshooting, he had me turn off the Birthday and US Holiday calendars on both the phone and iCal on my computer, then turn them back on and do a sync. This did not correct the event dates. If I remember correctly (I wasn't taking notes), this was before changing any settings in iTunes and didn't fix the problem. However... it *might* have played a part in the final fix, so if the following steps don't fix it for you, try adding in the off/on for the calendars before changing the iTunes sync settings.
What finally worked :
Changing a setting in iTunes to overwrite the Calendar on my iPhone and doing a Sync (bypassing MobileMe entirely). Here's how to do it.
In iTunes, go to the "Info" tab and scroll down to the Advanced section. There are 5 checkboxes there and selecting one or more will overwrite the corresponding items on the iPhone during the next sync only. He had me check Calendar, then perform a Sync.
That worked! For US Holidays, but most of the birthdays were still one day off, except ones I'd entered manually in iCal. All of the misplaced birthdays are published by dates I've entered for contacts in Address Book on my Mac.
I went back to iTunes and checked Birthdays in the Advanced area and performed another sync. That overwrote the Birthday calendar on the phone and now all of my Birthdays and US Holidays are showing on the correct days.
Would have been quicker if I had checked Birthdays at the same time as US Holidays, so when you follow the steps, check both Birthdays and Holidays to save yourself some time.
Hope this helps all of you who are having the same problem I was.

All of my dates are out by one day in ical (and address book). I can change them manually (best advice I could get from Apple), but it keeps happening to me. Any help appreciated, I have 10.8.6; macbook pro, iphone 4s and am frustrated. This seems to be a common problem but I can't find a fix.
In the post above advice is to go to itunes, "info tab", Advanced...but I don't see an "info tab" -
Thanks for any help!

Calendar dates synced one hour off

I exported the calendar/contact data from my Palm Pilot to my ICalendar on my Macbook. Then I synced the ICalendar to the Iphone. The result is that all my appointments show up on the Iphone one hour later than what they are supposed to be. I reset the Iphone and synced it again and the same problem showed up.

Thank you, this was the exact problem, as a friend of mine figured out last night. I have another problem now: I can't send email from my iphone. I checked the settings and they are the same, just as synced from the laptop. In addition, I closed the email on the laptop as I had learned previously that it does not allow them both to be open. But I still cannot send email for some reason...

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

Birthday calendar on iPad one day early with iOS5

The birthday calendar shows all birthdays one day early after upgrade to iOS5 on original iPad. I have all the automatic time adjustments and location recognition on. What is wrong?

I have read that this is a bug, here is a fix which has worked for me at least for the time being:
Here is a process that worked for me to correct the information in Calendars re birthdays appearing one day out:
(1) If your iPad/phone is syncing contacts with iCloud, turn it off. In Settings on your iPad/phone, Mail,Contacts,Calendars, Accounts, iCloud, turn off Contacts.
(2) sync your iPad/phone to iTunes.
(3) now select the ‘Info’ tab in iTunes for your iPad/iPhone. Ensure that ‘Sync Address Book Contacts’ is ticked. (You can revert to syncing with iCloud later, after this process is complete.)
(4) scroll to the very bottom section of the Info tab. Where it says ‘Replace information on this iPad/iPhone’, select ‘Contacts’.
(5) Sync again.
Now check Calendars on iPad/iPhone, this process ‘fixes’ the information of birth dates and they should now appear correctly.
Thanks to @fortbailey for this. By the way Steff_BKK, is one of your email accounts an Exchange account? (This has been reported as something to do with this bug.)

IPhone/iPad calendar holidays show one day early?

I recently noticed that all of my holidays on my iPad Air and iPhone 5 show one day early. For example, Christmas shows as being on December 24th. Every holiday is like this. I sync with Outlook 2007 and in there are 3 calendars: "Calendar", "Calendar in iCloud", and "Mobile Calendar in iCloud". The incorrect holidays are listed under "Calendar in iCloud". Of course, I can simply uncheck the calendar and the holidays disappear but I'd kind of like them there. Correctly. Any suggestions?

FWIW, I have no such problem..... Of course, I am "plain vanilla" Apple.

Ipad calendar events are one day early

Hello,
I recently switched over to iCloud. And now all-day events are one day early on my iPad only. The dates are fine when I look at iCal on the web, and they're fine on my Mac Pro and my MacBook. I tried resetting the iPad, and it didn't fix it. The time zone is was set to automatic, I tried setting it to manual, but still no change. Any other ideas?
thanks!
Joe

Calendar Off by One Hour

Since I updated to iOS5, my calendar is behind by one hour. I have checked both timezone settings and both are accurate. Help?

When you check the time zone, you also need to click on it to see what city you are tied to. A map will pop up with the city name. When I switched from a city in Guatemala to Minneapolis, I got back to Daylight Savings time.
