Project Online Time Zone Settings Issues

We just start use Project Online for our project management. We set the SharePoint Online > Site Settings >
Regional Settings to "(UTC +08:00) Kuala Lumpur, Singapore" and we are confirm that our host located either in Singapore or Hong Kong. However, we found that the date and time display in the check-out/in
project message, in the PDP-Workflow Status page, task submission, and the Administration Settings that has time references are different with our timezone.
We sent Service Request to Microsoft Support and we been advised to wait for the next version of Project Online. To avoid the confuse happen to our Project Team, we have to set the Regional Settings back to "(UTC -08:00) Pacific Time (US and
Canada)". However, this is 16 hours different
in our region!
We all know that time is very important in a project management and reporting. We have >30 on-going projects in the Project Online and some of them are estimate to take years to complete.
Therefore, anybody faced this issue and appreciate it if you could give us any advice or sharing any workaround here. Thank you in advance.

Hi Paul,
Is the timezone mismatch only present in the checkout/check-in notification displayed on the PDPs?
Thanks,
Roland
Hi Roland,
I noticed it happen in:-
"Entry Date" and "Completion Date" for PDP - WorkflowStageStatus in the All Workflow Stage list. (if you are using Enterprise Project)
Check-out/Check-in notification displayed in PDP - Schedule, and some columns' datetime value in the Schedule.
Synchronization date and time that displayed in PWA Settings - Manage User Sync Settings. (if you are using Project Permission Mode)
Task Submission date and time.

Snow leopard Time display ignoring time zone settings??

I travel a fair bit and found the snow leopard's menu bar time display seem to ignore
my time zone settings.
My home base is sydney. and whenever i travel the menu bar time will always show sydney time.
This is AFTER i've manually changed the time zone setting in sys preferences.
I tried running istatmenus, it seems to do the same thing (display sydney time).
any ideas?

snow leopard's menu bar time display seem to ignore
Are you using location or manually setting TZ?

Time issues? time zone settings appear in two places

If you leave the default "set time and date automatically", you see the time zone support below and you can check it or uncheck. You can then set your time zone there. But if you uncheck the automatic date and time, you get another time zone choice and the default is Cupertino, of course. I wonder if that's the problem with some of these time issues.
I've since unchecked automatic date and time, set my city's time zone, then rechecked automatic. The only weirdness I've seen was with an excel spreadsheet where the time was correctly shown on my mac, but not on the iphone. Unfortunately I don't have that sheet anymore or I'd try again to see if it works now.
Just a thought.

I noticed the same thing and did the same thing you did because my time was off by several hours each time I turned the phone on...after it being off overnight. When it was off by only 1 hour I could turn the Auto OFF then 'tap' the timezone (already set to the correct city) and the time would instantly correct itself. Then I'd turn Auto back ON.
Turns out that my time issue was related to having the SIM PIN enabled. Once I disabled that, the time's been correct every day.

SQL Server Time Zone settings

Hi Folks,
I am looking for some help on how we will handle time zone setting in a SQL Cluster. We currently have a six node SQL cluster with multiple instances running on it. I have been asked to supply a new Instance for a new project but the problem
is the users that will be using it are based in New Zealand and We are located in Dublin! They will be using a Dynamics Navision database on this Instance. So my question is can I set the time zone different on this new Instance to their time,
cant seem to find any details this. Most of the documentation seems to indicate you use the datetimeoffset feature or its usually handled within the Application. I am hoping its the latter but any help on this would be grateful, especially if somebody
had experience with the issue before.
Thanks
TD

That's quite the time difference, hope you're not on-call ;)
SQL Server doesn't maintain it's own time, it just inherits it from Windows, so in this case you'll have to leave the time as-is and allow the app to handle it. I've previously worked with navision over two time zones (only a one hour difference though) and
I believe it maintains dates in UTC.
Just be careful that any custom code you run in SQL Server jobs, etc also uses UTC.
Edit: The
Nav datetime is stored in UTC
A DateTime is stored in the database as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Time Zone/calendar issues

I just moved from the East Coast to the West coast. I have traveled in the past and never had an issue with the time zones or my calendar appointments. But since I've moved, my calendar is all whacked out, giving me reminders at the wrong time for events. I just changed the time zone in my calendar (I asusmed it already did that when I reset the main systems time settings) and now my phone is off worse than before!! It's driving me crazy! Please help!

Hi there,
You may need to check the Time Zone Support settings on your devices. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Location Services vs. Time Zone Settings

i am being given advice to turn OFF Settings > Date and Time > Time Zone Tab > "Set Time Zone Automatically using Current Location" - presumably so that when i travel all my events stay at the time that i set them to. for instance in the case of a return airline flight, so that the alerts will alert me at the correct time.
right now - i think - that if the Time Zone updates and i am traveling east (say from CST to EST) then the phone changes all my appointments in Calendar and they all show up an hour LATER than when i originally set them. this way i miss my flight.
however, i am not sure if there are consequences to this.
also, i can't tell if i should also change the Settings > Date and Time > Date and Time Tab > and UNCHECK "Set Date and Time Automatically".
also, i am getting uber confused between the settings on my phone as compared to those on my MBP or on Calendar. Location Services i think is a iPhone specific setting whereas Calendar > Preferences > Advanced > "Turn on TIme Zone Support"
anyone licked this so that it all works?

hi braden.
i have tried this "empirically" a couple of times by traveling to another time zone but i was basically testing to see if i can get this to work. the first time i did this i did not get the alert that i set because something had gotten adjusted and the time of my event that i had set had gotten "pushed back" - i think basically due to the time change between CST and EST. this is a problem since when i travel it is helpful to have the alerts on my phone. right now i am having a hard time figuring out why it would not be the case - given the explanation in your tech articles - that this won't happen again if these settings are on. conversely, if i turn oen or both of them OFF - it is not clear to me what the consequences are.
there is such as thing as a "floating" event which is supposed to (i think) alert at any time zone at the time that you SET the event - so that it does not ADJUST based upon your traveling to a new time zone. however, there appears to be a lot of confusion as to whether this works and/or to what extent it has limitations.
for instance, is this a viable way to get calendar to work across time zones? i mean, the articles you helpfully post don't seem to address how this works from a practical perspective.
here are my settings.
MBP:
Settings > Date and Time > Date and Time Tab > Set Date and Time Automatically (currently set to ON)
Settings > Date and Time > Time Zone > Set Time Zone Automatically Using Current Location (currently set to ON)
Calendar > Preferences > Advanced > Turn on Time Zone Support (currently CHECKED)
iPhone
Settings > General > Date and Time > Set Automatically (currently set to ON with “Time Zone” showing as Chicago)
Settings > Mail, Contacts > Calendars > Time Zone Support (currently set to Houston)
Settings > Mail, Contacts > Calendars > Time Zone Support > Time Zone Support Slider (currently set to ON)
1. do i need to do anything special when setting an EVENT while i am in CST (for instance) but the event is going to happen while i am in EST? i mean, can i just set the event with these settings and leave it as CST?
2. do i need to MANUALLY adjust my iPhone and MBP - once i arrive in EST - to show up as CST in order to get the alert to go off at the correct time?
3. do i need to MANUALLY pull down an event to "FLOATING" any time this event will happen outside the time zone i am in?
4. are there any limitations to using a FLOATING event? i know one cannot set a floating event from the iPhone but if this works and this is the only limitation i can do this method.
5. i have heard some people resolve this issue by MANUALLY setting their time zone for their "home time zone" and they TURN OFF time zone support on all their devices so that the events happen at the correct time with no time zone adjustment. does anyone know if this method works? does anyone know if there are complications to such a move - for instance if i was to work in another continent for a period of time it seems like you would have to change your time zone and this would affect all previously entered events. but also i cannot figure out if doing this will let the TIME on my MBP and my iPhone read correctly since this is very important to me.
sorry to be posting on this but this is very difficult to test and threads such as there indicate there is a lot of ongoing confusion about this.

any thoughts? or perhaps there is someone that has travelled recently and has this down to a science?

Time zone settings SNS3415-K9 with ISE 1.2

Hi, I require to change the time zone on a SNS3415-K9 which supports ISE 1.2 platform. I try to make the change but the application does not respond. I need to know if there are any special procedure for this?

Hi,
Have you rebooted your appliance after your time zone change ??
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/nac/guestserver/configuration_guide/21/nacguestserver/g_setup.html
Step 1 From the administration interface, select Server > Date/Time Settings to display the Date/Time Settings page as shown in Figure 3-5.
Figure 3-5 Date/Time Settings
Step 2 Select the correct System Date and System Time for the location of the Guest Server.
Step 3 Select the correct System Timezone for the location of the Guest Server.
Step 4 Click the Save Settings button to apply the System Timezone.
Note Changing the System Timezone automatically adjusts the date and time on the server.
Step 5 If you have one, two or three NTP servers available on the network, click the Use NTP to set System Date & Time checkbox.
Step 6 Enter the IP address of each NTP server available into the fields provided.
Step 7 Click the Save Settings button to apply the changes.
Note When setting the NTP server it may take some time for synchronization. Synchronization occurs much faster if the time is set close to the NTP server (and saved by clicking the Save Settings button) before saving the NTP Server settings.
Step 8 Click the Reboot Server button to restart the NTP process so the new settings take effect.

ICal time zone sync issue btwn macbook & iPhone

I've moved time zones and iCal insists on changing events to have a 3 hour difference! I'm trying to sync between my macbook (from 2008) and iphone (3G), to have the same timed events. Please help!

On your iPhone, drill down Settings>Mail,Contacts, Calendars and drop down to Calendars. My Time Zone was ON and set to an offset of GMT, I turned it OFF and my appointments are at the correct time on my iPhone.

Automatic Time Zone Settings won't work on my Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.7

In Settings, Date & Time, when I attempted to select "Set time zone automatically using your current location", my Macbook Pro attempetd to find location, and after a while it end up with a dialog read "Unable to determine current location at this time"
I have to disable this feature and use manual selection of my time zone (Indochina Time, Bangkok, Thailand)
Anyone here have recommendation to make this one work properly?
\My location service is enabled on y system!
help please

I got that problem for several months and used to update my location manually. Today, I got lucky. Try this:
In Security System Preference pane, General tab, make sure the "Disable Location Services" is unchecked. Then Reset Warnings. Click OK to allow the service to ask you to use your location every times it'll need it. Now I got the right time zone. Finally!

IPhoto photo stream time zone/ duplicates issue

I've got a bunch of duplicate photos in my iPhoto library on my Macbook from both manually importing photos from iPhone when connected and from syncing via Photo Stream.
I've since disactivated Photo Stream, but still had duplicate photos on my computer.
I've merged all the albums called "October Photo Stream" with the other imports into one big list sorted by date.
The problem is, I was travelling quite a bit across different time zones, so they're not all really in order. It seems the Photo Stream copy of the photo (the one with the keyword attached) has the time and date as my "home" timezone, not as the "local" timezone as per the time where the photo was taken.
Is this by design?
I'd now like to remove all the duplicates and was thinking I'd just search for Photo Stream keyword, then select all those pics and delete.... the problem is I'm not sure which ones actually have duplicates as they don't all have duplicates! I really can't figure out how/why some exist as duplicates and others don't... perhaps something to do with when I was/wasn't near a wifi network (applicable while I was travelling but less so for pictures at home as my wifi is always on at home).
This photo stream "feature" is confusing as ****, and don't even get me started on the other iCloud services like docs... could they have designed it any more counter intuitive if they tried?
Any advice/ assistance appreciated.
Further, if I reactivate photo stream in future, how do I stop this behaviour from happening again?

I've noticed this same problem. I just got back from a trip overseas and the time on all my iPhone photos imported from the photo stream is wrong by two hours (the time difference). It seems a bit stupid to have the photos time stamped with your home time zone, and it means that when I imported the photos from my camera they're all out of order and I need to adjust the time on all the iPhoto photos. That's not particulary hard, it just seems unncessary. I hope someone form Apple notices this and fixes the problem.

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,

Multi camera project, Online/Offline. Major issues reconnect/re-digitize

Ok gang I got brain bender.
3 camera show, Multi camera project shot Digi-beta. Brought the tapes (3@90min) in low res (dv50) and now I need up-res the files or as apple would call it “online/offline”
According to the book this can be done a few diffrent ways. I have explored these ways and I’m failing...very very badly.
Attempt #1.
- took time line into media manager made the sequence “offline” save the project to new folder in drive with new settings (10-bit). All looks good till you try to recapture at 10-bit. Clip names get changes and numerical extensions apple put on during “make new clip” don’t match. In short I have a show that wont go. FCP wants to digitize everything
Attempt #2
- took time line into media manager made the sequence “offline” Selected the clips batches of clips and then re-digitaized. Again clips don’t match and FCP wants to digitize everything.
This is where I need your help. What can I do to make this process work? Below are my next moves...but before I spend another 18 hours in a bay I want to make sure I get some other input.
Option 1)
Encode all the tapes in 10-bit, Try to reconnect. I would like to stay away from this because the space needed for 10-bit is out of this world and I do have other projects. Again I’m looking for that secret 1,2,3 to making clips only re-digitizing.
Option 2)
try some other method I haven't tried yet. ( this is the one I’m hoping for)
Thanks for your time an I hope it hear from you ASAP as I’m dying over here. Multi-clip with online/offline it’s exactly in the index in the FCP user guide. If any one has some posting or web pages I could book make for future that would be a big help.
Thank you all for your time in advance
Jeff

I must playback in Premiere the 4 video streams in real time
Good luck with that. Many folks have trouble with even one stream.
edit those offline low res copies to get my edit decision list
I'm not sure offline editing with AVCHD will be possible because of the folder structure. You may not be able to 'replace' the lower res copies with AVCHD.
My output format is Flash F4V 640x360 px square pixels for Internet playback.
Oh, man. Shooting HD of any flavor is just overkill that adds unnecessary work to the process. Have your client shoot in DV.

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.

DP background jobs in local time zone

We are using APO DP in an international environment (SCM 4.1). We have setup up the system, that is using the local time zone (personal user settings), which is working fine in interactive planning (data views & macros). But when executing the macros
in background (APO background jobs triggered immediately by a process chain), the macro is run based on the server time and not in the local time zone. The ALEREMOTE user is set up in the same way online users regarding time zone settings.
Can someone explain, why the local time zone isn't used in the macros when executing in background, and tell me which setting we have missed.
Many thanks in advance

HI,
I understand the issue, the issue is the Australia gets days very first from the world.. it almost GMT+11 hrs. will almost a day difference to US.
I am not sure whether my proposal will make sense, but let me try
As the month completes we will copy the sales history for the closed month. where technically the the month is current month as per the system time.
Why can not change the macro to copy current period and run at system time? i am not sure aobut the otherconstriantes.
But looking at your question, it could be possible where your client has the local time zone defined. you can check the same from any APO screen, from menu > systems->status. you can see both time zone ( local) system time.
I suggest you check with basis if we can use the local time zone, we can use the localtimezone but agian everyone has to use our local time.. NO SENSE i guess..
