Received appointment gets time zone wrong

I received an appointment invitation from EST time zone and I'm in PST. The creator made a calendar item (in whatever application) for 10AM EST and invited me to it. I accepted, and Calendar placed at at 10AM PST rather than 7AM. There was to way to check the time zone of the request - it's not there. Naturally, I miss the appointment.
I go to figure out what went wrong. The calendar and email are gmail accounts. I go to check how the appointment looks on the web calendar, and it's at 10AM, but it says that I edited it, and would I like to fix it to be correct? I agree, and it pops the appointment to 7AM.  Apple Calendar changed the time from 7AM PST to 10AM PST.
How can I see the time zone of the invite? How can I prevent it from being changed?

I looked at the invite file, and it clearly has the time zone in it.

  • When time zone support is on even when I am on Jerusalem, when i create an appointment the time zone for the appointment is immediately changed to Gaza and even when I change it manually it returns to Gaza.

    I have a 4s iPhone on IOS 6.0.1 with an Israeli Cellular provider.
    I use Gmail services an exchange to sync my colander contacts and mail.
    When the time zone support is set to ON in the Settings->mail, Contacts, Calendars->Time Zone Support
    The time zone is showing Jerusalem (I am located in Tel-Aviv)
    When I create a new Appointment, It Immediately changes the time zone of the appointment to Gaza.
    Even if I change it back to Jerusalem it changes back to Gaza every time.
    Only when the time zone support is set to OFF in the Settings->mail, Contacts, Calendars->Time Zone Support
    The time zone in Gmail is ok and does not appear on the iPhone. (This is ok)
    Dose any one know how do I make the iPhone not change the time zone to Gaza? And still keep the time zone support on?

    they are not always on the same time due to daytime saving time changes twice a year in Israel which are not syncronized with any changes in Gaza, Beirut, etc.

  • Time Zone wrong in Database

    Hello :
    Today I noticed that the time zone is set wrongly in one of our production instance.
    The time is in Mountain standard time instead of Central Standard time. The time zone information is set during database startup through a script.
    The script is as follows:
    #! /bin/sh
    # Name: up_db
    TZ=Canada/Central;export TZ
    #su - oracle -c "/usr/local/bin/up.oracle.sun db"
    su - oracle -c "/usr/local/bin/up_oracle db"
    su - oracle -c "lsnrctl start"
    Every time the DB is backed up we use down_db script. Once the backup is done. we use the up_db script to start the oracle database. The db was working fine until last backup and today i noitced that the time zone is wrong. Any ideas to fix this issue.

    Hi :
    We finally found out what was causing this issue. To summarise the issue and the resolution.
    Issue:
    We had two databases running on the same unix machine. One db was serving the east region and the other one the central region. The Unix machine was running in the Mountain standard Time. So we offset this Change in Time zone by an environmental variable to point exactly to east or Central Time zone. A week ago we noticed that the Central DB is still showing MST. East was running perfect. We were wondering how it is possible for just one db to work properly and the other not.
    Observation:
    East region was registered dynamically with the local listener and had always picked up the Timezone variable during startup. The central region was registered manually and it always picked up the timezone of the listener in which case it is Mountain. Even though the Time zone variable is set before restart of the DB.
    Resolution:
    We added the following variable to the SID List (ENVS='TZ=CST6CDT') in the listener.ora for the central DB and restarted the listeners. That fixed the issue for the central region. We disabled dynamic registeration for the east database by pointing the local listener to use a port which is not in use.

  • Automatic time zone wrong post 2/21/14 security update

    Updated ipad air and iphone 5s with new security update today.  For some reason, automatic time zone is now indicating I am in Chicago(central time) even though I am in Cincinnati, OH (eastern time). Anybody else having this problem?

    Hi all,
    i came also across this problem. If you use APEX automatic time zone detection you only get a time zone like '+01:00'. This is insufficient to handle Daylight Savings for TIMESTMAP WITH (LOCAL) TIME ZONE in the past or in the future that differ to the current Daylight Savings.
    Try the following:
    If you set your time zone to something like 'Europe/Berlin' then Oracle correctly stores/converts the data. To get this more exact timezone information, use jsTimezoneDetect (https://bitbucket.org/pellepim/jstimezonedetect/downloads) on the login page and store the result in a (hidden) item. In the page processing after the login handling, set the time zone.

    I am using JDk 1.5.0_0.8 on Windows Vista and i am having problem in retreiving correct Time zone. it always returns "Greenwich Mean Time" when i run
    "System.out.println(TimeZone.getDefault().getDisplayName());"
    on vista where as it returns "GMT+05:00" on Windows Xp and all previous versions. Because of this problem i am unable to retrieve current date correctly in Vista where as the same code runs fine in Windows XP. Please help!!!!!!!!!

    I am having a similar problem with JRE 1.4.2_07 and Windows Server 2008. The time zone returned is ALWAYS GMT for the default time. I can work around this by explicitely setting the time zone in my code, but my customer would like a real fix. TZUPDATER seems to have no effect. Any ideas?

  • Automatic time zone wrong, automatic time zone wrong

    Has anyone at Apple figured out a fix for the "Automatic Time Zone" bug?
    Up until about a month ago, my phone (4, 16 gig) was working fine. Now it won't recognize any new time zones, and I have to set them manually. It's rather annoying.

    You can run Repair Disk from the Restore  Partiton your HD. Restart the computer, when you hear the startup tone choose the Restore Partition and then open Repair Disk. However I'd be surprised if that has anything to do it with it. You should run Repair Disk Permissions at least 2x, and then if you want run Repair Disk. Then restart the computer in Safe Mode to clear some caches. Then restart normal and check the Time Zone.
    I also suspect you don't have iCloud setup correctly. You should check in Address Book preferences and see if you have duplicate accounts, I suspect you do. If I'm correct that would create duplicate entries.

  • Time zone wrong

    The System Preference for Date and Time informs me that all of New South Wales is presently on Daylight Saving Time (OK) except for Coff's Harbour, which is on Standard Time (not OK).  This is a long-standing error in this Preference - have the satellites lost their marbles?

  • Get time Zone based on Country code

    Hi All,
    I am looking for getting the time and date of a particular country based on country code in XI. For ex. if IN comes in payload then get IST (Date and time). Can we do that in UDF?

    How should that work? Have you thought about Russia? USA?

  • How get current time zone offset ?

    Hi,
    I am facing to a problem related getting time zone offset.
    Below code is used for my application :
    NSDate* sourceDate = [NSDate date];
    NSTimeZone* destinationTimeZone = [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone];
    timeZoneOffset = [destinationTimeZone secondsFromGMTForDate:sourceDate] / 3600;
    But sometimes seems that above code is getting work wrong. For example :
    Knoxville, TN : time zone offset should be -5. But my code resulted it as -4.
    http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=843
    This web is related my issue. Here is :
    Standard time zone: UTC/GMT -5 hours
    Daylight saving time: +1 hour
    Current time zone offset: UTC/GMT -4 hours
    Actually I don't know how get to "Daylight saving time:".
    Can you correct this issue for me ?
    Please advice.
    Thanks.

    Hi Raiden -

    Knoxville, TN : time zone offset should be -5. But my code resulted it as -4.
    I think your code is giving you the correct offset for Knoxville on today's date. The offset for Eastern Standard Time (EST) is -5, but Knoxville is currently on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), which is one hour later than EST. (-5) + 1 => (-4), which is what your code computed.
    Note that [secondsFromGMTForDate:|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Co coa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSTimeZoneClass/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/20000190-CACDIAIC] is correcting for daylight savings time. That's why you need to pass the date to that method. If you pass a "summer" date, the return offset will be one hour more than it will be for a "winter" date (usually early November to mid March). For example, try moving the date forward 60 days like this:
    NSDate *sourceDate = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:3600 * 24 * 60];
    NSTimeZone* destinationTimeZone = [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone];
    int timeZoneOffset = [destinationTimeZone secondsFromGMTForDate:sourceDate] / 3600;
    NSLog(@"sourceDate=%@ timeZoneOffset=%d", sourceDate, timeZoneOffset);
    The above should give you the offset for Knoxville on Dec. 7, 2010, which is a winter date.
    Actually I don't know how get to "Daylight saving time:".
    You can test a NSTimeZone object with [isDaylightSavingTimeForDate:|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentat ion/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSTimeZoneClass/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/20000190-CHDCJGHE], but you don't need that information when you obtain the offset with secondsFromGMTForDate:.

    To run the application I am using TWO_TASK to connect to the database. In our application we have to take care of time zones. For that in previous versions(NO TWO_TASK used) I used TZ unix environment variable, to get time zone dependent time wherever sysdate is used.
    Now because I am using TWO_TASK, oracle is no more using users TZ settings.
    Question : Is there any way I can make oracle to use the TZ environment setting

    Thanks for replying Johnny!
    What you are referring to is adding a city. I need to know how to set the time zone in settings -> Date & Time -> Timezone. Unless & untill this is set properly the iPod will never show me the right time. Please help me with it.

  • Time zone EEST is missing

    Hello experts,
    We found time zone EEST and CETW are missing.
    These 2 time zones do not exist in native table TTZZ.
    But below assigns exist in V_TTZ5;
    country: BY - time zone: EEST
    country: FO - time zone: CETW
    When EEST and CETW are deleted from TTZZ??
    We finished upgrade (R/3 enterprise -> ECC 6.0) at the end of last year.
    I guess these entries are deleted at that time.
    But they dose not exist in R/3 enterprise neither...
    Thank you in advance.
    Regards.
    Emma S

    I would recommend to use the customizing report of note 198411 to receive the newest time zone
    data and daylight saving time rules. The corresponding data file contains the time zones EEST and CETW and of cause the changes you mentioned above. Furthermore geographical assignments are created
    for the missing time zones as well.
    The customizing report TZCUSTIM could be started for different clients
    and so you do not need to create a transport but just run the report
    for the needed clients to have the same data in all clients.
    Thanks,

  • AppleScript or Automater to Set Time Zone (or just the time)

    Hi,
    I am trying to have a script that will change the timezone to UK - (ie reduce my macbook by one hour from European time) before I run an application.
    I use a MythTV backend on my network that is in UK time, and I am in Europe. However, the mythfront end I have on my mac needs to be in same timezone for it to work with the backend.
    However, instead of having to go to the System Prefs before I want to run the myth front end, I'll like to build a Automater workflow (app) that changes time to UK time, runs the mythfront end (and changes back once I close myth front end).
    My problem is I can't get any workflow to work to change the timezone. I found a workflow on the net for Automater, but this doesn't work. The auomater app was called 'Set Time Zone 1.0 - by NyghtHawk productions' but only returns this error about not being able to find this file:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/syst emsetup-panther.
    (which I guess is obvious as I'm using Snow leopard and not panther)
    Does anyone know of a working way to script setting the time in Mac Os X ?
    Thanks in advance

    I have solved the Applescripting of System Preferences to change the Time Zone.
    My problem is that my time zone (Melbourne - Australia) causes my 3rd gen iPod nano to lose its time zone and time settings when it is _plugged in_ to my mac (Note: Not when it is synchronised).
    I have a pair of Applescripts: the first sets the time zone to Noumea, run before the iPod is plugged in and the second resets the time zone to Melbourne after the iPod is physically disconnected.
    timezone=Noumea
    This script is run BEFORE plugging in the iPod.
    This ensures the iPod time zone is not NUKED.
    The corresponding script to reset time zone is
    run when iPod is physically disconnected
    tell application "System Preferences" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "System Preferences"
    (* get Date & Time preference pane *)
    tell menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
    delay 0.5
    click menu item "Date & Time" of menu 1
    end tell
    (* get Time Zone subpane *)
    tell tab group 1 of window "Date & Time"
    click radio button "Time Zone"
    tell group 1
    set value of combo box 1 to "Nouméa - New Caledonia"
    We need to focus the combo box before "hitting" return
    PROBLEM: we dont know if it is already focused
    a) if is already focused the first 'return' key sets the time zone
    b) if was not focused the first 'return' key does nothing
    the 'tab' key will then focus it
    and then the second 'return' key sets the time zone
    keystroke return & tab & return -- make it stick
    delay 0.5
    end tell
    end tell
    end tell
    end tell
    timezone=Melbourne
    This script is run AFTER physically disconnecting the iPod.
    This ensures the iPod time zone is not NUKED.
    The corresponding script to set up the time zone to Noumea
    is run BEFORE iPod is physically plugged in
    tell application "System Preferences" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "System Preferences"
    (* get Date & Time preference pane *)
    tell menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
