I hope that Apple can solve this problem.

Problems with time zones - my phone still switches to winter time

I know that lots of Russian Apple customers experienced inconvenience with the switch to winter time (1 hour back) on the last days of October, because since this year president Medvedev decided that Russia should not get involved into that process, but all of the devices that were synced to the automatic time made a switch back. The problem isn't solved if you turn off the automatic timing option, because sms messages still appear in 1 hour difference. So if you get a message on 10 pm it is displayed as you got it on 9 pm, which makes a big confuse. I suppose that someone already posted a message about this problem, but all I found is to fix the file that rules the time zones manually by downloading loads of software. I am just a user and would not manage to do it by my self. I just can't figure out why Apple Inc, being such a trusted and wise company, still didn't make a solution for this embarrassing problem and didn't change their MAIN CLOCKS so all of the devices can easily synchronize with it, or, make new software for iPhones and iPads.
So, what do we do now? Thank you!

I did look at the other threads, but none of them quite matched what I'm seeing. As I said it used to work just fine for me and I only noticed a problem recently. Looking back it seems that timestamps have been off since the begining of 2011, but things look ok before then.
Just for the info is this the first time you've imported in the same time zone you've shot in with the camera time set to another time zone? Just curious because Aperture does seem to take into account the machines time zone as well as the camera's and the shoot's location.
As I mentioned in the post, my regular way was to shoot with camera set to EDT/EST and do a time zone conversion. I didn't have problems before this year. I would expect the OS timezone to be where I was shooting, but not neccessarily.

Iphone - can i switch from PC to an Apple?

Hey,
I have my iphone 3g setup to my pc but I want to switch to an apple computer (looking at a new one) does that mean I have to get a new iphone?

I switched computers with my last iPod. I had to restore the ipod to get it to the new computer. I was not able to use the iPod to move music to the new computer.
make sure you copy your data, contacts, music, etc to the new computer before synching.

Can I switch users during time machine backup?

I have a laptop with multiple users.
I am trying to do a Time Machine back-up using a fire-wire connected western digital drive.
Either because I had not backed up in a few weeks, or had updated to 10.7.2, I am not sure, but when I connected the drive to do a backup Time Machine started doing a deep scan.
The preparing phase took several (over 5) hours before the backup would start, but it finally did begin backing up.
It is trying to back up 8 GB of files and is taking a very long time. It backed up 1.5 of 8 GB over the course of the entire day.
Then my kids came home from school and switched to their users.
Looking at the logs, it looks like the backup got canceled when we switched users.
After switching back to the admin user, I am back to the preparing phase again.
I thought you could log out, swtich users etc with Time Machine.
Can someone explain this behavior to me?
Thank you

I just wanted to update all after my experieces:
Time Machine was not the problem. The problem was a defective WD external firewire drive (WD Green drive) which has since been replaced under warantee. Thank you WD for your comiitment.
Whenever I used this drive, I could hear it chugging and chugging away during mount and whenever I was accessing the drive.
I finally checked the drive (WD My Book) with DISK WARRIOR and the thing was toast. Tons of unrepairable hardware errors.
Thankfully the drive was under warantee and after receiving a replacement from WD (no issues with RMA replacement process, kudos to WD) have had ZERO issues with time machine and the replacement drive.
Initial 1st time- time machine backup was ~ 5 hours. (~120 GB of info). (I added the drive to spotlight 'do not index' prefs prior to setting up time machine.)
-This was a HUGE time difference. My prior initial backup with the defective drive was 3 DAYS, yes, DAYS.
If you are having these kind of problems, check you drive with Disk Warrior (Disk Utitlty does not cut it). If Disk Warrior reports problems, it is a hassle, but replace the drive.
Good luck. Karma +1

Getting new external drive, can I switch back up time machine drives?

I don't want to loose the info time machine has already captured on my external hard drive called B1, if I install a new hard drive B2, can I just copy B1 to B2 and then point time machine to B2?
Not sure what the process would be, but I want to get rid of B1 as a time machine drive and add b2 and not loose any info already captured.
Suggestions?

Related question:
I partitioned my 500GB external drive, 30GB in G-1 for a bootable system (currently 10.4.10) and the remaining space in G-2 for Time Machine.
I now want to resize the partitions on the fly in Terminal, to free up 20GB more for TM, but I plan to use Carbon Copy Cloner to first make a backup of both G-1 and G-2, just in case.
If I lose data resizing the partitions and then have to restore the TM backup files from the clone, will Time Machine recognize its earlier files and pick up where it left off, or will it start over?
Aside: Disk Utility in Leopard indicates it will resize partitions on the fly without losing data, but I have read in other threads that data has been lost anyway.

Hi, I have an Iphone 4 that switches off every time I disconnect it from my charger. If connected to my PC it switches on (apple logo) then switches off again continuously. When powered wifi, bluetooth and cellular network are all inop?

As the device is cut off from any sort of means of data transfer I cannot backup any of my Photos (ive just had my first child so there are loads on there). Im receiving a replacement phone from Vodafone UK on Monday but they have told me there is no way to back them up from one device to the other. Ive also contacted the Apple 'premium' retailer in my hometown who also said there was nothing they could do.
Advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

Anyone?

Only one track is downloaded per album on itunes on my iphone 5. Every time I download a new track it deletes the previously downloaded track on that album. Why is this happening and how can I switch it off?

Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin. Sometimes it's necessary to uninstall then reinstall that plugin.
Uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
Now launch Safari and try a video.
If you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
You may also need to delete the cache associated with Safari .
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy/paste: ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Click Go the move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari. Try a video.

IPhone 5s switch off about 3 weeks time and it can't switch on now help

I did not use my iPhone 5s for about 3 weeks time due to I'm trying another phone currently, of course the battery died and I didn't charge it. Now I want to use the phone back but it can't turn on after I charge for an hour or so, the screen is completely blank and I have tried the solution posted by Lawrence Finch online (What to do if your iPhone or iPad will not turn on), but it's still can't be work. My cable and charging point are completely fine as well where my parents could charge on their iphone6. Help thanks.

Hey there Chuanjin,
It sounds like your phone is not responding to anything even after charging it for an hour. Based on the troubleshooting you performed in the post you quoted, it looks like there is not much more to recommend other than having it repaired, and that is what I would recommend:
iPhone Battery and Power - Apple Support
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I can't switch apps on my iPhone 4. I have 9.3 GB of free space out of 30 GB. Rebooting doesn't fix the problem. Does anyone know of a good fix?

I can't switch apps/programs on my iPhone 4. Whatever app I'm in is the only app I can use unless I restart my iPhone. Then I can choose a new app/program to use but then it's stuck on that app/program until I reboot my iPhone. Syncing it with iTunes doesn't seem to fix the problem and I regularly close apps/programs so I never have many multi-tasking.
This problem sometimes goes away for a brief period of time (an hour or two) but it's pretty much been this way for the past 48 hours.
I have a 32 GB iphone 4 that has the following on it: 4.9 GB Audio, 8.2 GB Photos, 6.2 GB Apps, 0.58 GB Other, 9.3 GB Free.
I am using iOS v 4.3.5
Does anyone know of a good fix?

You mentioned rebooting, have you tried a cold reboot? That is is holding the home and lock buttons down for about 15 seconds?
Ignore the slider asking to turn off, just keep holding. Once it goes off continue to hold for about 10ish more seconds and it will eventually turn back on.
Suggestion only.

Switch from daylight saving time to winter time

Hello,
Can somebody describe why it is recommended (note 7417) to shut down the system for a little over two hours? Why is is not enough to deactivate the system 5 minutes before last daylight saving time hour has started and activate it when the winter time is started? Why should we wait until the first hour of winter time has ended?
Note 7417 gives the following example:
'If the hour from 2:00 to 3:00 occurs twice when you change to standard time, you must deactivate the system from 01:55:00 AM until 3:05 AM"
It is not clear, why the system cannot be activated at 2:05 AM after the time is switched...
Thanks in advance,
Yelena

Hi Yelena,
Check the note 102088, it's clearly mentioned about 'double hour' and why it need's to be shout down?.
Regards,
Hari.

Every time I switched my iPhone off, he switched automatically on. What is wrong?

Every time I switched my iPhone off, he switched automatically on. What is wrong and what can I do about it?

How are you switching it off? Are you holding the home button and sleep button on top at the same time until the phone shuts off? or are you just holding the sleep button until you see the 'slide to power off' slider? If you're doing the former, you're not actually shutting off the phone, you're resetting it. If you're doing the 'slide to power off' thing, and your device isn't staying off, it is possible that you have a hardware issue. Create a backup, then restore your device as new. If the issue still happens when you have a wiped device, it's a hardware issue for sure and it needs to be replaced

My iphone 4s has switched off and will not switch back on even when its connected to power charger or laptop. can someone help please

Just read that someone had the same problem on 3gs and someone had replied to press the home button and power button at same time, so I tried this and within a few seconds my phone had switched itself back on.

My Iphone 4 will switch on but will not respond as screen frozen (can't slide to switch on or answer calls) I have tried holding for 15 secs to reboot but same problem???

My iphone 4 will switch on and charge, but a lot of the time the screen is frozen (can't slide to switch on or answer calls) I have tried holding for 15secs to reboot but it doesn't clear the problem????

When you say "holding" is it both the sleep switch and the home button until the Apple Logo comes up? If it isn't then I would recomend doing that. If not, turn the phone off and then (while holding the home button) plug it in to iTunes, this will send the phone into recovery mode and will need to be restored from there. Note* this process does have the possibility of losing data if it is not backed up on the computer!!!
