My iCal is off by 1 hour - same time zone setting

Help! I've been through numerous forum posts regarding iCal quirks and I can't find a solution to my problem.
I use MS Outlook at my work and sometimes, I send myself an appointment on my home account so I can see the same personal appointment on both calendars. Today, I set an event for tomorow morning 9AM on MS Outlook and I invited myself on my icloud.com account.
When I received the meeting invitation for 9AM, it shows that the originator (me) sent the invitation for 9AM in the time zone I was sending it from but on my iCal the time the meeting shows up is 8AM. It's off by 1 hour.
I've verified all my time settings in my computer and I can't find any setting that will move the time to the correct time.
The time zone where I'm sending the Outlook invitation is set to GMT-5:00 Eastern Time. I used the 'set time zone automatically' feature in the Mac System Prefs and the city next to where I'm located is automatically detected. The location is coming up within a confirmed time zone that is GMT-5:00 Eastern Time. The two calendars should match but they're off by 1 hour.
Any suggestions on what I might try to fix the problem?

Over the weekend my computer shut down due to battery running out, which I now know dumps all Mail accounts. Between this issue with the time zone and the loss of my Mail data I have switched to Outlook 2011. It has been a bit of a pain to re-setup a mail program but my meetings are now making it to my calendar correctly. Of course outlook and iCal don't play friendly either so I have to drag and drop to get things onto my calendar but at least I'm making it to my meetings at the appropriate times.
Mine time issues were with webex meetings. Thanks for confirming that it wasn't my system alone.

Is there an iCal add-in that will accommodate different time zones?

I am a former Windows/Outlook guy, now living in an all-Apple world (iMac on my desktop; iPhone, iPad and/or MacBook Air when I travel, which I frequently do.)
Here is my challenge (something that was easy, easy, easy to do in Outlook):
I want to be able to create events in iCal that will occur in some other time zone without having to do the mental math.
For example, I am sitting at my desk in my home time zone (Eastern Time) and book a flight from Washington to Los Angeles for sometime next month. What I WANT to do is create an event with a start time of 8:30 am Eastern and an end time of 11:30 am Pacific. To do that now, I have to mentally say "That's really 8:30 Eastern to 2:30 pm Eastern". Hope I got the conversion right. If I did, all is good. The event will show up properly in my iPhone at departure time in DC. When I fire up my iPhone on landing in LA, the internal clock adjusts, and everything is good. If I make a mental mistake (for example, add hours rather than subtract), I might miss my flight.
I have another trip already on the books to Dallas. I get an email from a colleague setting up a meeting while I am there. Regardless of whether I am sitting at my iMac in DC or looking at my MacBook in a hotel room in LA, what I want to is be able to enter the appointment as "2 o'clock Central Time" and be assured it will show up in the proper time in my calendar, regardless of where (or when) in the world I happen to be the next time I look at iCal.
Most of the comments on this forum suggest work arounds. "Just work it out in your head". But I am not talking about doing this occasionally with one or two events. I do it constantly with literally scores of events occuring in multiple time zones. And there is nothing worse than setting an alarm clock for 3 in the morning in Paris so you can get up to catch that 8 pm Eastern board of directors conference call only to discover you missed the call because you screwed up the math when you entered the call in your calendar.
Like I said. Outlook in Windows does this flawlessly. But setting up Outlook on my home Mac (in a Windows partition) defeats the purpose of my trying to do it on the software, platform and hardware I prefer to use.
Which is a long winded explanation to get back to my simple question: is there an iCal add-in or standalone app that plays well with iCal that will let me designate the time zone for start and end times when I create an iCal entry?

It sounds like 1Password may do what you're looking for.

ICal meetings off by 1 hour when accepted in Mail since day light savings time

As off the hour adjustment when I accept a meeting using the Mail App they are off by one hour in Calendar. If I accept the meetings on my iPhone they populate properly. I have verified my time zone settings, and even have the time zone option enabled. Searching the forums I see this has been an ongoing issue, but I'm not finding an actual solution to resolve the issue.
Thanks for pointing me to the solution. I'm using a MacBook Pro with version 10.9.2 and Mail version 7.2 (1874) and Calendar version 7.0 (1841). There are no updates available when I check.
Thanks again!

ICal events off by three hours on iPad

I have an iPhone 4, 32GB Wifi iPad and an iMac all running the current software. I also use MobileMe to sync all of my info. I have noticed that recently my events sync'd to the iPad are off by three hours (ahead). My time zone is set correctly on all devices yet this problem continues. If I enter an even on the iPad say for 11AM, it will show up on my iPhone and iMac as a 8AM appointment, and vice versa going the other way. I don't know what is going on but any help would be awesome. I've tried everything I could think of.

Well, I admit that this is desperation but try the recommendations on page 170.

Calendar app and calendar notification not in the same time zone

Hi,
I just update my macbook pro 13' retina to Yosemite.
I sync my calendars account (gmail, icloud and exchange) with the calendars apps to have all my event in the notification bar.
I just see that the event are not at the same hour (see picture)
Today, in Europe we change from the summer to the winter hour,
Is it the reason why ? is it a bug ? Am I the only one ?
Thanks
Thomas

I have a similar issue. Events sent to me from Outlook users or created by me in Outlook 2011 (on my Mac) appear 13 hours later in iCal both on my Mac and on my iPhone.
It seems that iCal in both OS X 10.10 and IOS 8.2 are defaulting inbound events to GMT or UTC time zone despite time zones on both devices being set to my time zone in NZ which is currently GMT/UTC +13.
It would appear that you are in Europe. Is your time zone by chance 1 hour different from GMT/UTC??

Sql query-filter if 1 set of data exists and in the same time 2 set doesnt

Hi guys,
I need to write a query where I filter on certain data being present, but in the same time other data from the same table being not present.
For example:
ProceduresTable:
Type 1
Type 1
Type 2
Type 2
Type 1
MyTable:
Name
OtherFields
JoiningTable (many to many)
ProceduresTable_Key
MyTable_Key
I need to select all records from MyTable and Procedures for which there are procedures from Type 1 but there are no procedures from Type 2 in the same time.
So far I've been only able to do that by using subqueries and I think there should be an easier way to do that.
Here is what I have:
Select * From MyTable, Procedures, JoiningTable Where JOINING_CONDITIONS AND Type = 1 AND NAME_SOME_COLUMN NOT IN (SELECT NAME_SOME_COLUMN FROM ... WHERE Type = 2 and inner.Name = outer.Name)
Hope you understand my meta code. I have Oracle 9 db.
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you have a question, it helps if you post a specific example. Include CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data, and also post the results you want from that data.
if you can use commonly available tables (like those in the scott or hr schemas) to illustrate your proble, then you don't have to post the sample data; just the results.
For example, I think you're asking something like this:
"How can I find information about people in the sciott.emp table who are in a department that has at least one CLERK ( that is, a row with job='CLERK') but no SALESMAN? That is, I want these results:
{code}
ENAME DEPTNO JOB
CLARK 10 MANAGER
KING 10 PRESIDENT
MILLER 10 CLERK
JONES 20 MANAGER
FORD 20 ANALYST
ADAMS 20 CLERK
SMITH 20 CLERK
SCOTT 20 ANALYST
{code}
One way is to use CASE expressions instead of WHERE clauses to test for the criteria, then using the reults of the CASE expressions in the WHERE clause.
For example:
WITH     got_cnts     AS
     SELECT     ename,     deptno,     job
     ,     COUNT ( CASE
                         WHEN job = 'CLERK'
                   THEN 1
                     END
                ) OVER (PARTITION BY deptno)     AS clerk_cnt
     ,     COUNT ( CASE
                         WHEN job = 'SALESMAN'
                   THEN 1
                     END
                )     OVER (PARTITION BY deptno)     AS salesman_cnt
     FROM     scott.emp
SELECT     ename,     deptno,     job
FROM     got_cnts
WHERE     clerk_cnt     > 0
AND     salesman_cnt     = 0
;The problem here is that you can't always tell, by looking at any one row, if it should be included or not; in this case, you need to know something about the department as a whole. Analytic functions can look at the department as a whole, but analytic functions are computed after the WHERE clause is applied, so to use the results of the analytic functions in a WHERE clause, we need to do the analytics first, in a sub-query, and the WHERE clause later.
Sometimes (as in the example above) analytic functions are useful; other times, aggregate functions are more appropriate, depending on the exact requirements.

ICal events are displayed in the local time zone, not at the time they are supposed to be

When I enter events in iCal (or in my iPhone calendar), they always display at the time for the zone that I am currently in, even when they occur in a different time zone. For example, if I have a lunch scheduled at 12 pm Monday in Vancouver, I want to see that I have something scheduled at 12 pm on Monday, even if I am in Hong Kong. But even if I have time zone support enabled, the event appears at 4 am Tuesday. This makes it hard to look at the calendar and know what events I have scheduled for what times when I am doing a lot of travel. Is there anyway that I can get the event to show up at 12 pm on Monday no matter where I am in the world?
Thanks

This means you're still using Flex 1.5 as your runtime. SAP has introduced Flex 2 RT on SP14 patch 1 onwards. There were a lot of bug fixes and also several new functionality introduced there. I suggest you consider upgrading to the latest SP. Note that you can upgrade VC apart from the portal (only 3 SCAs to deploy) so this means you don't impact the portal itself and continue to have an up-to-date version of VC.
If you want to solve your problem, I suggest you open a support ticket at SAP and once they see this, they'll let you have those SCAs.

Same user has different time zone setting in Analytics & BI Publisher

Hi All,
i am using OBIEE 11.1.1.3.0 now,
1) when login to http://localhost:9704/analytics, the time zone setting is (GMT+08:00) Taipei,
2) when login to http://localhost:9704/xmlpserver, the time zone setting is [GMT-11:00] Midway Island, Samoa,
it is different, why? and i can't even modify the time zone setting in BI Publisher.
Regards,
Makson

do you know how does the default time zone setting come from?It comes with the installation itself default. or it will be related to some database timezone that will be taken by BI.
default time zone values can be changed with variables that have been newly introuduced system session variables like TIMEZONE in OBIEE 11g
TIMEZONE --> Contains the time zone of the user, typically populated from the LDAP profile of the user.

ICal and iPhone calendars are off by 1 hour from each other

My iCal on desktop G5 and my iCal on my iPhone are syncing but they are an hour off of each other--in other words if I have a lunch scheduled for 11:00 on my desktop G5, it shows at 12:00 on my iPhone. I checked the clocks and they are both correctly on eastern standard time. Any suggestions?

It could be the hidden time zone settings.
The problem is that iPhone has TWO time zone settings -- one for time display and one for the calendar.
Under Settings->General->Date & Time, there is a time zone setting if "Set Automatically" is turned off.
Under Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars, there is a setting, too, but it's not obvious. You must scroll to the bottom of this window and select Time Zone Support, then turn it off. It's on by default.
What confuses the user is that the two settings can be different. The latter affects only the calendar.

ICal and iPhone's calendar are off by 1 hour

Anyone else have this problem? The calendar on my computer is fine, but the one on my iphone is 1 hour off...

Just a thought - have you got both machines set for the same Time Zone?
iPhone - Settings : Date and Time : Time Zone
also, check the Calendar setting lower down.
Then check your MacBook's time zone setting too

How to "In Effect" Turn Off Time Zone on iCal AND main computer

I am hopeful that this will help those of us who don't want to have any form of Time Zone on our computers or iCal. I read some of the other posts and see that it does not appear an option to completely turn off all Time Zones on the computer and iCal.
What I am thinking about doing, is trying to "Trick" my computer & ical into thinking it doesn't ever go anywhere and thus leaves all of my appointments where they are - no matter what time zone I am actually in.
I hope those of you more knowledgable can please help me see if this will work, or not?
I am hoping that by leaving Time Zone Support turned "Off" in iCal and leaving my computer at a 'manual' Mountain Time Zone (meaning I don't have it set to have it automatically set to the right time - I will set it manually), my appointments will stay put (not move around 8 hours when I go to Italy &/or back to the US)?
I can set the time "manually" to the correct time when I am in either US or Italy so my computer will reflect the current time, but still be set in Mountain Time Zone? Will the alarms still work on calendar events?
The only drawback I can see so far, is that all of the times on emails are messed up (i.e., off by 8 hours) when I am actually in Italy because I still do have the main computer time zone set as Mountain Time - US.
I am willing to live with this (I think?) if it leaves my appointment times alone.
Someone on a similar thread had wanted iCal to function like a paper planner - that is exactly what I am looking for as well! (it looked like that thread was a bit older, so that's why I posted this new question. It is my first on this type of forum, so forgive me if I am doing something wrong - and please advise! :~)
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I am being driven crazy by, what I suppose to be, the same issue. I have used the Time Zone Support feature to somewhat limited success.
I frequently travel between different time zones am confused on how to set up iCal to show the times of my events *in the place where they occur*. When I am in LA and I have a concert in Chicago later in the week, I don't need to know what time the Chicago concert is in LA.
Syncing my Treo 650 adds another problem. Publishing the calendars adds another as the published times are not listed in the time zone where the events occur but rather what time zone my laptop is in.
This seems simple to me, but I may be missing something. Here are my wishes:
1. As I travel with my MacBook Pro that I can change my Date and Time preference to actually list the time zone where I am. Easily done...but...
2. That the event times in iCal are unaffected by the changing of the Date and Time preference adjustment...(after all the concert in Chicago is still at 3pm on Friday, even if I am in Tokyo on Monday. I need to know the time of the Chicago concert in Chicago time, not Tokyo.)
3. That calendars that I publish list the time in the place where the event occurs. I have students that need to know their lesson times but are consantly confused because the published times reflect whatever time zone I happen to be in...not where the lessons take place.
4. That when I sync my Treo the event times automatically adjust to whichever time zome the treo picks up off the network time server. When I land in a new time zone, I need to know the the rehearsal starts at 10, in the city where I have just arrived.
I have recently switched to the Apple PIM apps from Entourage...where, if I never changed the time zone, everything was fine.
Sorry for the longish cry for help.
Thanks

Timestamp off by 1 hour

Production department scans images using OS 10.3. The files are stored on a Windows 2000 server. Once the files are complete, they are copied to another Windows 2000 server located offsite.
When the images are copied, the Date Modified appears correct on the offsite server, but appears exactly 1 hour off on the local server.
This appears to have something to do with Daylight Savings Time, but all settings are correct in the Mac and both servers. All computers involved are in the same time zone (Eastern).
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure if you've personally checked your servers or if someone has told you they are both configured the same, but the most plausible answer is that they are not configured the same.
Make sure they are both set for the same time zone.
Make sure they are both using Daylight Savings Time.
As a matter of good practice, if you're on a company network and one of these Windows servers is also a domain controller, you can use that server as your Mac's time server. This can be set in your Date & Time System Preferences pane.
Hope this helps! bill
