New Time Zone Issue with MobileMe Calendar Upgrade

I'm having strange things happen with sending/receiving "invitations" to people in other time zones.
Prior to this MobileMe calendar upgrade, sending/receiving invitations worked fine. I would schedule an event (obviously in my time zone), and if I invite a friend in a different time zone, the event would show up on her Google Calendar at the proper time. Between iCal and Google Calendar, the time zone translation was working properly. Likewise, when she scheduled an event and sent me an invitation, the event showed up in iCal at the proper time for me.
But now, after simply upgrading MobileMe calendar, events from me to her show up at the wrong time! It's as if the time zone translation is no longer occurring. Oddly, events that she sends to me still work correctly.
I have "Turn on time zone support" enabled in iCal, MobileMe calendar, and on the iPhone.
So this very nice feature that was working previously seems to have broken with the MobileMe calendar upgrade.
Has anyone else seen this, or (hopefully) solved it?
Thanks!
Jim

...anyone?

HT2513 I am having time zone issues with certain calendar requests

There are certain calendar requests I receive via calendare attachment via email that do not align to correct time based on originating time zone. Currently I am in the Central Time Zone and these certain requests come from Eastern Time Zone users. I have looked at time zone settings and all settings appear correct. However, when I look at calendar request to edit the request, it shows that the time zone is central time zone in request.

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

Time Zone issues with iphone 3GS running ios4

My iphone calendar reminders have been behaving strangely since the ios 4 upgrade. I checked time zone support and it was set to my current city (Indianapolis, EST). Phone has been recently synched, and is otherwise behaving normally.
I travel occasionally to Chicago which is in CST. I noticed when I was there that reminders were coming up at the meeting's posted time. E.g. at 9:00 am when I was in Chicago I was getting reminders for 9 am meetings in Indianapolis (by which point the meeting had already occurred).
When I returned to Indy, I am still getting notifications at odd times - I got a reminder at 12:15 pm that a meeting would be starting at 12:30 pm. The meeting was actually set to start at 1:30 pm.
My next step is to reset the iphone, but this seems like a buggy situation. I hope I don't need to make it a normal part of my not-infrequent travel across the time zone borders to reset my iphone.

I have a 3G and also have this issue. I am in EST and travelled to CST. Since I got back, my reminders are showing up 1 hour too early. I am going to do a hard reset and see what happens. Let me know if you find a solution.

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.

I'm having time zone issues when sharing calendars

I made a schedule when I was in the Mtn. Time zone. Now here in the Pacific Time Zone it's showing up an hour earlier. Is there a way to change a large number of events to one hour later?

Harvey,
Have you used the "Turn on time zone support" setting in iCal>Preferences...>Advanced?
"Select this checkbox to be able to see your events in different time zones. When the checkbox is selected, you can change the time zone for all your events in the top-right corner of iCal, and you can choose a different time zone for individual events in the event editor."

HT4623 iOS 8 version 8.1.2 issues with the calendar displaying wrong TIME ZONE!

I just updated to iOS 8 using version 8.1.2 and am having issues with the calendar. I use my GMAIL calendar and sync to my iPhone and now any calendar entries that I add from my phone display the current time zone AND GMT time. Entries that were already there display correctly. New entries entered from the GMAIL calendar also display correctly. The issue is with NEW entries entered on my PHONE into the calendar. This is very annoying and causes problems for new entries that need EDITED. Once opened to edit it defaults to GMT time! WRONG!! I have turned off the automatic time zone feature and Time Zone Override in Settings but it's still WRONG! There are multiple reports of this online so I would like to know when/if it will be corrected or if there is a fix! Please help!!

Quite the same problem here, GMT, UTC.......
Why when they do an update they don't check it completely???

Calendar Event Invites - Time Zone Issue

Hi all!
I just switched back to BlackBerry from iPhone, and love everything about it so far except one thing: time zone issues on calendar invites.
My work uses an OS X hosted CalDAV server, and I was able to sync my existing calendars to it without issue.
My time zone: Eastern
My coworkers timezone: Central
The Issue: I received an invite from a coworker, and on my Mac, it shows at 1PM Eastern, as it should. The invite was sent for 12PM Central. This same invite appears on my BlackBerry at 7AM Eastern.
Testing completed:
I added an invite on my BlackBerry for 6AM Eastern as a test, and it appeared on my Mac at the correct time without issue.
I added an event on another day from my Mac, and it synced to my BlackBerry without issue.
So it seems that my issue only exists when recieving event invites from others, possibly in different time zones.
My Mac and BlackBerry are both set to Eastern time.
My coworkers Mac and iPhone are set for Central time.
I looked all through the BB settings and cannot find anything that would account for this odd behavior.
I tried a battery pull - same results.
I am on the latest OS available for a Q10: 10.2.1.2976
Can anyone help with this? I would hate to have to go back to iOS for one issue like this, however, an accurate and reliable calendar is critical to my work.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try this, for a test.
Set your Q10 to GMT Timezone.
Open the calendar, your invtes should be ~5 hours ahead.
Set your TZ back to Eastern.
Check your specific event mentioned above which was at 7am Eastern.
Is it correct now?

How to use time zone settings with calendar events ??

After looking through the questions on time zones and synchronization, I still cannot get my Palm Centro to operate the way I think it should.
I have a Verizon Centro, am using Windows XP with Outlook, and synching via the Hotsync manager 7.02 over a USB cable. I am not using Palm Desktop.
I am expecting events to shift time in the calendar when I change the time zone, but they do not.
I am preparing for a trip. I enter several test events into MS Outlook placing the events to occur in a different time zone into my calendar at the time the event would occur in my home time zone (NY). For example, a meeting from 9-10 AM in Los Angeles is put in my MS outlook calendar as 12-1 PM on the day of the meeting. Then I sync, with the time zone of my Centro and Outlook set for New York. The Centro is set to update Date, Time, Zone automatically from the network in New York. The meeting event appears as 12-1 PM on the correct day.
Then I turn off the Centro phone (ie disconnect from the Verizon network), change the time update to "Nothing" -- ie entirely manual, change the time zone to Los Angeles and set the time to the correct time in Los Angeles. I expect the meeting to shift to 9-10 AM in my Centro calendar, but it does not !!!!! I try other combinations -- Leave the time update on Date and Time automatic, and change the time zone to Los Angeles, etc. I think I tried all the combinations. Throughout, I leave the Centro phone off of the Verizon network. I cannot get the meeting to change its time in the new time zone.
What is the trick ??? What did I miss ??
You might ask why I am trying this with the phone turned off -- that is because I am really going much farther than LA, and into a GSM network where I will simply use the Centro as a PDA.
Any advice appreciated.

thepoeta --
Thanks for the response.
Indeed my preference was not set "new events use time zones".
Meanwhile, I had loaded all the applointments from Outlook, about 20 of them,
figuring I would just move them manually en route.
I will play with the time zone preference, but,
is there any way to identify the existing appointments in the
Palm as belonging to a different time zone, just using the Palm Centro ?
Thanks,
Neal

N8 calendar times change when in new time zone

How do you stop the calendar times changing when you enter a new time zone? This is very frustrating, particularly when the calendar contains flight times etc which you have entered in the local time zone of place of departure. Then when you move into that time zone it automatically changes every calendar entry! Annoying! I realise I can deselect automatic time zones, but then I'm guessing when I do change the time zone manually to where I am (so that it shows the time of day, and I can set an alarm to wake me up, etc!!!) then the same thing will happen - all my calendar entries will change. Hope someone has worked it out already.

the times are stored on the phone in absolute time, lets call it gmt. they are then displayed on your handset in local time.
the times aren't actually changing as you change time zones. they are very much staying the same.
to achieve what you re after you are just going to have to enter the times in one of the text fields.
There's no dignity in begging for kudos. Do it for the karma.

Time mismatch synching with mobileMe

I synch my Ical with mobileMe every day, looking at my calendar online I find a time mismatch: on my mac appointment at 1pm on Mobile at 4am for all the items.
Furthermore I sync my MacBook_1 with an other MacBook through MobileMe and all is ok no time mismatch.
A view problem ? an error caused by time zone ?

8300 won't update when it arrives in new time zone

I have tried setting time source "network" and "Blackberry" but in either case, when I get to the new time zone the time on phone is from home local and does not update. On Date/Time page network time is displayed for all locations but on front screen time is not updated.

Ical time zone issue - will not change to Floating or let me adjust

I have Calendar 6.0 on OS X 10.8.5 and cannot get the calendar time to adjust from Mountain time. I'm in Arizona where we do NOT change time - one half the year we're the same as California, the other half we're like Colorado. But Calendar has decided I'm Mountain time and no attempt to adjust that has any effect. I have clients in Washington State and Oregon, and clients in Arizona. But I can't have calendar invites or meetings set in anything but Mountain time. It's making me nuts. I can't select Floating either, per one suggestion. Please help!
I went to iCloud: Change your calendar’s time zone and tried all they suggested, but nothing works as it says it should. I cannot "set any time zone you want" with time zone support On. The "pop-up option" they mention when Time zone Support is On still does not allow me to select another time zone. Oh - and my iphone 5s shows the time zone as Phoenix, just fyi, with Set Automatically turned on.

Did you turn on time zone support in the Calendar app on your Mac too? Try going to Calendar>Preferences and on the Advanced tab check Turn on Time Zone Support.

New Time Zone

Hi All
my country, Venezuela, decided to change the time zone from UTC+4 to UTC+4:30, yes a half an Hour change
his is another of Chavez Ideas, but my problem is that I can not set this on the Preference panels of time zone,
I Have notice that other countries with specific time zones (australia, Iran, and some other with fraccional time zones) have been predefines in the control panes
Does anybody know how to include a NEW TIME ZONE or do I need to wait for Apple for an UPDATE
thanks
Claudio

I suspect you have to wait for the imperialists at apple to provide an update. Sorry. Compare to http://java.sun.com/javase/timezones/tzdata_versions.html, though that isn't quite what you are looking for anyway.
Maybe you could speed things up by filing a bug report at http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/ (see the link at item #3).
