Good evening.
I'm from Ausria as well and these settings work perfectly well for me.
# LOCALIZATION
# LOCALE: available languages can be listed with the 'locale -a' command
# HARDWARECLOCK: set to "UTC" or "localtime"
# TIMEZONE: timezones are found in /usr/share/zoneinfo
# KEYMAP: keymaps are found in /usr/share/kbd/keymaps
# CONSOLEFONT: found in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts (only needed for non-US)
# CONSOLEMAP: found in /usr/share/kbd/consoletrans

  • TS2784 I have set my iphone5 time settings to automatic New York time. Throughout the day the clock keeps changing times on its own by hours. Sometimes in is correct. Sometimes it is wrong.

    I have set my iphone5 time settings to automatic at New York time. Throughout the day the date and time on the phone keeps changing on its own and often by a few hours. Sometimes it goes to the correct time. Sometimes it is way out. Is there something wrong with my settings?

    This is a known issue with the iPhone 5. Turn off the automatic time setting for the time being. It will most likely be corrected in an upcoming update to iOS if the tech press is to be believed.

  • Premiere Pro & Audition tifferent time settings and cant edit anything correctly.

    In Premiere Pro i put video, edit it in After Effects but audio in Audition.
    When all is correct then i speed up video in Premiere pro but since audio speedup is shi-bad therefore i speed up in audition BUT ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET CORRECT TIME LINE IN PREMIERE TO PUT IN IN AUDIOTION.
    In Audiotion Effect/Time and pitch/Strech and pitcher when i put same speed as in Premiere, Audition does the opposite.
    Thats one fuc-bad bug/difference. Ok. So then ill try to hover with mouse video i just speed up lenght in Premiere. Hovering gives in, out point times and total time of clips leght. Right? Maybe.. couse if i put that lenght in Audidiotion as desired legnght, clicked save and ctrl+s alt+f4 and see in Premiere.. THEN IS SOMEHOW A LOT SHORTER THEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE.
    In Idiotion i can change time settings and none helps.
    In PremiProion i can change to audio time and that isnt corrent also.
    Even just opening audio in Audition from Premiere without speed up they show whatever you change a different times.

    Clip with Video/Audio i put in Premiere
    Divided
    Video clip right click replace with After Effect composition.
    and what i do in premiere doesnt matter couse lenght i ckeck in Premiere hovering over other example video (to see the lenght witch to write in desired Audition speed up couse in audition 115% speedup is speedown for any illogical reason)
    So Original ivdeo/audiot i speed up to see leght hovering with mouse over
    BUT in Audition it shows ( i dont care what it shows i just need to put correct value in percentage in Audition but since that also doesnt work i need to know correct leght)
    SO how long video i need?
    In premiere audio original leght witch is now open in audition
    OR in speedup settings
    LOL WUT? Different duration bug also and doesnt change ANYTHING couse differences allways were for one clip- too long for other too short when using times from premiere.
    SO 115 % eh? If we dont look then all is fine and i dont care what is in premiere in end and i dont need to read that duration is now too long. I would automatically just save export and then in hollywood only see something was wrong with this premieridiotion software but not my assumtions.
    Ok since i saw that 115% in premiere now turnet too long..
    I check whats wrong for some time. Then i try all again slow and i see there duration.
    Ok i enter duration witch we now check in premiere (where else?, the clip is shortened in premiere)
    AND NOW ITS TOO SHORT
    Heres time settings. NONE SHOW EXACT LENGHT OF AUDIO SAME AS IN PREMIERE
    SO what are time FPS in Premiere? Whats the difference? Shouldnt they work at least on some standarts?
    ps. also adding to bug of ****** Premiere audio speed up and solution bugs in Audition, here another bug- YOU CANT ENTER THIS CUSTOM FPS SPEED AS I SEE IN PREMIERE IT WANTS TO WORK WITH AUTOMATICALLY 24,81 fps
    AND WHY WOULDNT THEY BE AUTOMATICALLY SYNCHRONIZED if audio is LINKED TO PREMIERE???

  • [SOLVED] Incorrect time displayed in my system

    Hey Archers,
    I have trouble correct time being displayed in my system.
    My BIOS time is:
    May 18 2012 08:39:21 PM IST
    Date command displays
    Sat May 19 02:09:59 IST 2012
    Clearly the time displayed by date command is localtime+05:30 (Asia/Kolkata), when I expect it to be just localtime.
    How do I correct this?
    I dont dual boot and have just Arch installed on my machine.
    And my /etc/rc.conf has this:
    HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"
    TIMEZONE="Asia/Kolkata"
    Please correct if my understanding is wrong, but is this how it works?
    When I say HARDWARECLOCK=UTC and TIMEZONE=''Asia/Kolkata",
    It assumes, hardwareclock, time displayed by BIOS, is infact UTC, and, since the user is interested in timezone, +0530, it adds 0530 to hardware clock.
    Thanks,
    Nachiket.

    Hey Tectu,
    The wiki article on Time was indeed splendid. It had all the information I needed. Thank you.
    Trilby,
    You were right, my hardware clock was on local time.
    So this is what I did to set it correct.
    1. Set the HARDWARECLOCK to "localtime" in /etc/rc.conf
    HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
    TIMEZONE="Asia/Kolkata"
    2. Reboot the system
    3. Set the systemclock to UTC by doing a -0530 (minus 05 hours 30 minutes)
    # date `date -d "-05 hours -30 mins" +%m%d%H%M%Y`
    4. Copy the system clock value to hardware clock
    # hwclock --systohc
    5. Edit the /etc/rc.conf to set HARDWARECLOCK back to UTC
    HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"
    TIMEZONE="Asia/Kolkata"
    6. Reboot the system.
    And yes, now my system clock displays correct time
    Just setting HARDWARECLOCK to "localtime" also worked. But since I the beginners guide recomments "UTC" I did all this.
    Marking the thread as SOLVED.
    Regards,
    Nachiket.

  • I can't change my alarm time settings

    I own a 5th generation iPod nano and I regularly use the alarm clock and it works fine until now.
    When I set a new alarm and choose the exact time I want it to ring, I go back to the alarm main menu only to find out that the time I selected has changed. Every time I go back to the time settings and correct the time I want, the final saved time is different.
    I already tried to reset my ipod twice, I even restored it but the issue remains.
    What should I do ?

    I'm on Mac OSX version 10.5.8. Processor: 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Memory: 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    Not sure how to check which version of flash I have but I updated it to the latest 2 nights ago. But the problem was still there prior to that. I thought updating would solve it but apparently not.
    Been trying to stream these and others like it. The message usually pops up within the first minute or so:

    Thanks for trying to help.

  • ICloud calendar not syncing in correct time zone

    Basically, I live in Australia & I have a subscription to a with all the Manchester United fixtures on in the UK. on my Mac the time zone changes are all correct, but as soon as I view the entries on my iPhone 5, they appear in UK time. I've already set my time zone to Sydney (AEST) on my iCloud account. Not sur

    I had the same issue, it annoyed me for quite a while, and I couldn't find a solution on the web.  I then looked at "Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --> Time Zone Support" and saw that it was stuck on the wrong time zone there (which coincided with the time zone my calendar was in).  I switched off Time Zone Support and switched it back on: that corrected it.  I then returned to my calendar app again, and it was in the correct time zone.  That solved it for me.

  • RV 120W: Simple Bug in Time Settings

    Hello CISCO,
    if you bring your new firmware, please verify the small bug in 'Time Settings': If you choose CET (GMT +1h) AND enable 'daylights saving time' the time goes back 6 hours instead of forward 1 hour.
    Firmware of RV120W: 1.0.1.3
    Additionally, I'm waiting too for the problem described in https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2047272. I'm surprised that CISCO needs such a long time to solve such an issue... I thought I bought the new router from a leading network provider.
    Best regards
    Christian

    BUMP
    Same issue with time. Whether set to Standard NTP, Custom NTP by DNS, or Custom NTP by IP address the router will simply not get the correct time. Set by PC works, but after restarting it goes back to default of
    01/01/2000 00:00.
    Also, for ours (5) setting the DST settings does not work. After setting the dates and hitting apply, they simply roll back to Jan/01, Jan/01.
    On that; PLEASE update all the routers to do DST not by a hardcoded month/date ... DST falls on Sundays guys! It changes every year. Setting DST by the [1,2,3,4,5]th Sunday in [J,F,M,A,M,J,J,A,S,O,N,D] is the more appropriate selection criteria.

  • I think I solved my time changing issues- hope this helps

    Hey everyone, I think I've had some success with my time changing issues. I originally posted this to another user as a follow up to her question, but I'm reposting it here. Hope it helps:
    "msteinny,
    So i went to the apple store to meet with an apple genius to ask him why my phone's time kept moving up 1 hour everytime I synced my phone. Well he said that he's never seen this problem before, and after a trying a reset and restore he let me exchange my phone. The problem is that when I went to sync my new phone the problem still persisted. They told me it was probably something to do with my computer and its time zone settings.
    So I get home and click on my computers clock in the bottom right hand corner to bring up the date and time properties and sure enought my time is correct, the date is correct and the time zone is correct (Eastern Daylight Time). So I look through the different tabs (Date & Time, Time Zone, Internet Time). The first thing I tried to do was to change where my computer syncs its internet time. It was originaly set on NIST time. I then switched it to Windows time, but this didn't do anything. My clock would still change when I synced to itunes. The next thing I tried was fideling around in the Time Zone tabs. I noticed that the box that says "Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings" was unchecked, so I checked it and my computer's time jumped an hour ahead. So I left the box checked but moved my clock one hour back (to the correct time), clicked on apply and left it at that. I synced my iPhone and voila! The time didn't change! It stayed on the correct time! To to make a long story short, make sure that you computer's clock is set on "automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes, make sure your time zone is correct, and that the time is right when that box is checked. I hope this helps you. I'm glad I got a new phone out of the deal;)
    Chris P. "

    As I mentioned in my post, whenever I checked that box the time would be incorrect. It would move up an hour. I've messed with this along time ago, way before I got my iphone. I think this had something to do with the daylight savings change that was implemented this year or last year. I dont remember if I never tried correcting it before, or if I couldn't, but this time I didn't have any problems correcting it. Anyway, since I couldn't correct it back then, I just left the box uncheck and decided that I would change the time manually when the next time change occurs. But it seems to work fine now so all is well.

  • TS1702 The Calendar app that came on my i4S Phone does not sync the correct time for items posted on my Yahoo Calendar.  Actually, they post exactly 4 hours earlier than the correct time on my Yahoo Calendar.  Does anyone have a "fix" to correct the "time

    I posted this question a while ago and didn't receive any responses but there are a lot of people who have viewed it and 10 have said they have the same question so I thought I would update you that I added my nanny to my exchange server account (created an email for her) and I send all invites to that email address and they work.  So sending invites from an exchange server account to a non-exchange server account apparently is a bug so to solve it, get on an exchange server I guess.

  • When dual-booting with Windows 7, Mac OSX time settings reset every reboot.

    I have recently installed Windows 7 Professional on my mid 2010 MacBook Pro via BootCamp (Running Mavericks BTW). Everything runs grean and have not experienced any problems on the Windows side, but I have a problem with Mac OSX now. When I am using Windows 7, and I reboot into Mac OSX, I find that my time settings are wrong. It seems like my time zone has changed, because the date is correct, as well as the minutes, but the hour is always wrong. When I go to Date & Time in System Preferences, and my time zone is correct, but I still have to chage the hour in the time. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.

    If you dual boot your Windows PC with OS X or Linux, you may have experienced a problem in which your clocks reset themselves incorrectly every time you boot into Windows. Here's a simple registry edit to fix that.
    Essentially, the incorrect clock setting happens because OS X and Linux use GMT time while Windows tries to synchronize with your local time zone, getting confused when you reboot between the two. Apple's own Boot Camp drivers for Windows are supposed to fix this problem, though some users have noticed that it still happens even with the drivers installed, and some Linux users are left out in the cold. Furthermore, if you have a Hackintosh, you can't install the Boot Camp drivers, so you'll need to find another way around the problem.
    To fix it, just hit Start and type regedit.exe in the search box. Hit Enter and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation. Right click anywhere in the right pane and hit New > DWORD (32-bit) Value. Name it RealTimeIsUniversal, then double click on it and give it a value of 1.
    Lastly, reboot into OS X, then reboot back into Windows. You should now notice that your clock actually displays the correct time.

  • Ftp displays wrong time in Win7 explorer - other computers on XP or previous see the correct time

    NO ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IN OVER A YEAR? Shame on Microsoft
    Windows7,
    Explorer is showing a -6 hour difference in time from my actualfile
    date. This is NOT simply the time difference between my computer
    (in Central time zone) and the server (on Eastern time). Explorer is ignoring the server's time stamp and subtracting exactly 6 hours from the time of the what the server should say. I know this because I'm also looking at the exact same folder and files using
    XP and the time stamps are exactly as they should be. I modified a file locally (on Windows 7) and copied it up to the server. The time stamp local is 9:36a. The time stamp on the server should be 10:36a, but instead it says 4:36a. So, I copied a file from
    the server back to here and it reports locally 6 hours later (10:38a) than what is on the server (4:38a). Looking at the exact same files through explorer on XP shows that the time should have been 10:38a.
    If it wasn't for time showing correctly on XP, I'd assume it was a problem at the server, but there seems to be something in either the display of time, or in the way it sends thefile'stime-stamp.
    And now I'm testing it on another ftpserver,
    which I think has their time set to UTC (my 10:00a is their 4:00p). Using XP, I create a brand new file locally, and transmit it to this server. It initially appears with the same timestamp as the original file (10:16a). I then do a refresh of the server list
    (in XP) and it jumps forward 6 hours (4:16p). I look at this server with Windows 7 and it shows that the file has a timestamp of 10:16a. So Icopy
    that file (using Windows 7) to its local drive and it tells me that the timestamp is 4:16p (later today).
    I've triple-checked my PC's time settings (set to UTC-06:00 Central Time). I've verified with the first server's techies that the PC is in Eastern time (I've not reached the other server's people yet). In both cases, however, Windows 7 is showing the time of
    the files on the ftp servers to be 6 hours earlier than their actual time-stamp.

    I have had the same problem with WIN7 explorer, viewing file timestamps with FTP on a remote web server. If you copy the remote URL address and use IE9 to view the same folder, you will see the correct file timestamps.  Also if you temporarily change
    the time zone on your local machine to "Coordinated Universal Time" UTC-0 then you will see the correct file timestamps of when the files were actually created on the remote server. I guess that Microsoft chose to make this change in Windows 7 so that
    we would be aware that FTP on servers actually use UTC-0 time for a timestamp when they create a new file.  Just remember to change your local machine time zone back to normal when you are done.

Maybe you are looking for
