IPad iCal Apointments' Time Off by 1 Hour

I mostly schedule appointments using my iPhone, in checking out the iCal App in our new iPad I noticed they all were scheduled 1 hour later than what I entered on my iPhone. We moved recently from Pacific time to Mountain time, I corrected the iPhone time zone from Cupertino to Denver, likewise the iPad. Problem still exists, e.g. I schedule an appointment on my iPhone for 2pm it shows up on my iPad for 3pm.
I also corrected my wife's iPhone to Mountain Time, the iPad is still scheduling events 1 hour later .
Any suggestions?

This problem was driving me crazy. I was able to correct it by going to the settings on my iPad, selecting "Mail, Contacts, Calendar". Scroll down to the very bottom where it says "Time Zone Support" and turn it off. Suddenly, all my events went back to the correct time!

Ical invites seen off by 1 hour in Outlook for IST (India Standard Time)

Hi,
I have this strange problem since I migrated to MAC recently and started using iCal. Earlier I was using Thunderbird with Lightning. I am in the India time zone (IST). Whenever I create an appointment using iCal and send invites (using MAC Mail) to meeting participants, the Outlook users among the recipients see the meeting at a time that is an hour ahead of the scheduled time. Lightning users get the invite correctly. Both my Mac and the recipients are using IST timezone.
Please note that India does not use daylight saving. I dug into the problem a bit and I have a speculation about what is going wrong.
India used daylight saving briefly in 1942. The VTIMEZONE specification generated in the ics by iCal seems to specify that daylight savings is used since May 15, 1942, and standard time is used since Sep 1, 1942. My speculation is that Outlook interprets this as saying that daylight saving is in force today (July 2013), probably just ignoring the year specification. Other calendar applications possibly are unaware of this bit of world war II history.
Any way that I can get iCal to not include the timezone information or to modify its 1942 memory? Currently, I am creating all appointments using UTC but that's obviously not pleasant.
Here is a paste of the relevant data in the ics file.
BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
TZID:Asia/Kolkata
BEGIN:STANDARD
TZOFFSETFROM:+0630
DTSTART:19420515T000000
TZNAME:GMT+05:30
TZOFFSETTO:+0530
RDATE:19420515T000000
RDATE:19451015T000000
END:STANDARD
BEGIN:DAYLIGHT
TZOFFSETFROM:+0530
DTSTART:19420901T000000
TZNAME:GMT+05:30
TZOFFSETTO:+0630
RDATE:19420901T000000
END:DAYLIGHT
END:VTIMEZONE

Hi, any thoughts here? I tried replacing the system timezone file for IST with a vanilla +0530 GMT offset one (in /var/share/zoneinfo) but that didn't work (even after a reboot). Does Mail (and other such applications) not use the system timezone definition files?

IPhone 5 time off by one hour.

I just purchased a new Sprint iPhone 5 last week. This morning I woke up and the clock was off by exactly one hour. I tried turning the phone on and off and resetting it to no avail. Finally I went into settings > date & time and turned on and off the automatic time function and it fixed the problem for about 4 hours; however, just now it reverted to being incorrect. Anyone have any ideas as to what might be going on? I'm running IOS 6.1.3 which I believe is the most current version.
Thanks!

It just now went off by an hour again, under the timezone field it says "etc/GMT+6" instead of chicago. I'm thinking this is probably a Sprint problem??

Calendar sync time off by one hour

When I sync my BB Curve 8530, version 5.0, by Verizon with Outlook 2007 calendar, the appointment time is off by one hour. The BB Curve always shows the appt time one hour later than Outlook. When I schedule an all day event, it begins at 1 am and carries over to the next day at 1 am. I've verified time zone settings for both. Not sure what else to do or check. Any advice is greatly appreciated so I won't be late again!!!

Time off by an hour in Calendar alarms

Experiencing my alarms in Calendar appts off by 1 hour (early). I have checked Settings/General and Settings Mail, Contact, Calendars and they are both set to New York time which should be correct? How do I fix please?

iPhone can't handle time and Calendar and Alarms. It's too stupid.
Apple's Programmers are too stupid. See that thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2469993&tstart=0

Daylight saving time off by 1 hour

Greetings.
There is a java aplication running on my windows XP professional client. It apparently uses one of the java functions to get the date from my client PC. The problem is that the time in the application is off by one hour.
I am in the eastern time zone with daylight savings time checked.
If I uncheck daylight savings time the application time is correct.
I am using the latest JRE which seems to include multiple version's of the java webstart which I can see in the registry.
Anybody come across this.
Over and out,

just use
java.util.Date now = new java.util.Date();
java.util.TimeZone tz = java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Berlin"); // adjust for your time zone
now.setTime(now.getTime() + tz.getDSTSavings());
and
new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss", java.util.Locale.GERMAN).format(now)
to obtain the formatted time as String.

Calendar times off by 1 hour

Updated to new version of iTouch software today. After process was complete all of my calendar entry times for my corporate email account are off by 1 hour.

Some things you can check to troubleshoot this include:
Go to icloud.com, sign into your iCloud account, click your name at the top and choose Account Settings, click Time Zone and be sure it shows the correct time zone and that you have selected a city near you. Then open your calendar on icloud.com, click the gear-shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, click the Advanced tab and make sure you have not checked time zone support at the top.
On your iOS devices, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Time Zone Support (in the Calendars section) and make sure this is set to Off. If you have a Mac, open the Calendar app and to to Mail>Preferences>Advances and uncheck “Turn on time zone support”.

IPhone 3G Email and Calendar times off by one hour (slow one hour)

My times which I send/receive emails or put appointments on the calendar are 1 hour slow as compared to my computers. I have Mobile Me and Mobile Me (on the computer) and my Outlook emails and calendars match and my current time is correct on all. On the IPhone 3G the current time is correct but the time a email is sent or received and all appointments on the calendar are both off by one hour (one hour slow on the IPhone 3G).
I have set time automatically in "settings" to on, and under "email contacts and calendar" I have time zones disabled. I have tried each possible combination of these settings but cannot get the email/calendar times to match between my computers and the IPhone 3G regardless of how these are set.
I have numerous computers and all times are correct on all. On the IPhone 3G the current time (the clock) is correct, but times in emails and calendar appointments are all off (slow) by exactly one hour no matter what I do.
Anybody else have this issue, and/or know what the solution might be?
Thanks

I have tried that and it did not work. I am now trying it with everything set to enable DST, and see if that works. Everything, so far, seems to be in sync. The phone would be right for a second when you went into the calendar and then change to be an hour off. Strange. I think the settings I have now (all, Windows, MobileMe, and the IPhone 3G set to DSL on, the same) may be working. Only time will tell.
Thank you.

[SOLVED] ntpd gives time off by +2 hours

I installed ntpd about a month ago, and it was working fine until this last week. Since then it has been giving times two hours ahead of what it should. My configuration is the same as on the wiki.
In an attempt to figure this out, I've tried changing timezones and have found that they all are +2 hours from what they should be.
Also, when I run ntptime, I receive a couple of errors:
$ ntptime
ntp_gettime() returns code 5 (ERROR)
time cfd37b6b.c1dc614c Mon, Jun 28 2010 13:50:03.757, (.757269810),
maximum error 16000000 us, estimated error 0 us
ntp_adjtime() returns code 5 (ERROR)
modes 0x0 (),
offset 0.000 us, frequency 9.072 ppm, interval 1 s,
maximum error 16000000 us, estimated error 0 us,
status 0x2041 (PLL,UNSYNC,NANO),
time constant 6, precision 0.001 us, tolerance 500 ppm,
Any ideas as to what's up?
Edit:
After thinking about it, it looks like ntp isn't connecting with the servers at all? as the ntp_gettime() returns an error. I'm going to try tinkering with the config file and see if that changes anything.
2nd Edit:
I've tried a number of changes in the config, and it hasn't made any difference. The time is still consistently off by +2 hours.

@Proofrific: You're awsome: it works!
@3]): Yep. As I stated before, I'd tried several timezones.
@gaunt: I haven't tried pinging the servers, but I have 7 of them in my ntp.conf. I can't imagine that they are all down. I tried the default config, as well as the one in the wiki with no success.
I think the problem with the ntptime might have to do with a kernel update. I'm still at a loss as to why ntpd didn't automatically sync, but I can live with that as I can set my time with ntpdate. I'll just remove ntpd from my daemons list for now. It's not a perfect solution but it's good enough for me, so I'm marking this thread as solved. Thanks for all the help!

I moved across the country. My iCal event times fell back 3 hours.

So, I moved from the East Coast the West Coast. Now all my recurring events and items created on the east coast (while out there) are appearing as 3 hours earlier on my iCal and iPhone. Example:
Original event time: 1 pm (created on east coast)
Event time in iCal now: 10 am (3 hours earlier)
DESIRED time in iCal: 1 pm
Is there a way to do this automatically without having to go into each event and change manually? Thanks in advance!

Yes, go to your settings and under Advanced, turn off Time Zone support.

Text Messages & Calendar Time off by 1 Hour

Hi. Does anyone else have this problem? I can't seem to find it in the forum discussions when I search. Please direct me if I missed it.
My time zone is correct. Here's the situation. When I open the text message app all the messages are listed and the time in that location is correct. When I open any one of the contacts to view the text message it is ahead by one hour. To clarify..if you send me a text right now at 10:22. In the list it will show 10:22 but when I open up our discussion your message says it arrived at 11:22 even tho it isn't even 11:22 yet. All messages do this.
Calendar
The calendar acts similar. If I enter an appointment in SCHEDULE mode (the little arrow at the top changes the view) then all appointments will be ahead an hour but when you go into the appointment to view it..it says the correct time but views wrong. So viewing your day at a glance in this mode shows all appointments out by an hour. Because of this I have had to use my calendar in AGENDA mode or view so the times show up correctly and don't drive me crazy.
Anyone??
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you for pointing me to the post. Unfortunately the workaround doesn't work.
The only work around for this problem is to keep your calendar in Agenda mode for anyone else having same problem. And we have to live with the text messages being an hour off until an update comes which might be never in this province...yes a slam to Sasktel..thanks

Outlook Calendar Time Off By 1 hour

When I create appointments on my phone and sync with outlook, the timesare off on hour, and vs/vs. The time on tyhe phone is setr to auto. Cant find any settings in ITunes to effect this, nor in Outlook. Thinking its a DST issue but cantsee where to change / set.

Maybe this will help:
Page 76 iphone manual:
"Set iPhone to adjust event times for a selected time zone:
1 In Settings, choose General > Date & Time.
2 Turn Time Zone Support on.
3 Tap Time Zone and search for a major city in the time zone you want.
When Time Zone Support is on, Calendar displays event dates and times in the time
zone of the city you selected. When Time Zone Support is off, Calendar displays events
in the time zone of your current location as determined by the network time. "

Other wise, you may need to do something in Outlook.

Scheduled Fax - Time off by one hour

If I schedule a fax job on a remote computer and select "Send at" via the scheduler drop-down, it behaves differently in Tiger (10.4.6) than in Panther (10.3.9).
In Panther, it works as I would expect. The default time is the current time, and when you schedule the job, the remote system has the same time as you set.
In Tiger, the default time that comes up is 6:00PM , and when you change this time and schedule the job, the remote computer schedules it for one hour ahead of your time.
I have verified that the time zone settings are the same on all computers, and it does the same whether the shared fax is on a Tiger system or a Panther system.

Outlook appointment time off by one hour

First time posting a new question. When syncing my BB to desktop Outlook calendar with new appointments by USB cable, the appointment time on the BB is exactly one hour later than when its scheduled in Outlook. So, an appt for 10:00 am on my desktop shows as 11:00 am on my BB. Its true whether the appt was entered on my BB or in Outlook calendar. I currently use Outlook 2007 on my desktop with Windows XP, have BB Curve 8530 Version 5.0 with Verizon and use BB desktop software version 6.1.0.35. Any thoughts would greatly be appreciated, and keep me from being late AGAIN for appointments.
