Switching Time Zones. Problem in syncing calendars

I am currently having problems with syncing my calendars from my Touch to Outlook calendars. The problem is that when I put in a scheduled event and sync it to my computer, the time is always pushed forward by 2 hours when I look on my Outlook Calendars.
I have just recently switched time zones from Central to Eastern (2 hour time difference). I have changed the time zones for my iPod Touch and computer to the Eastern time zone. Yet it is still not syncing up the times properly.
Can anyone tell me what is going on here?

hi once more:)
maybe check you j2ee too:
log on to

then choose system properties for your server
inside you'll find user.timezone
check if this value is ok

KOrganizer time zone problem

I'm having this weird time zone problem with the KOrganizer Calendar. I'm in Chile and the goverment extended the daylight saving time for a couple of months (until May 7). I already installed the latest tzdata 2011e-1 package (from testing) which contains the updated rules for America/Santiago.
Now if I create an event in Calendar, let's say tomorrow April 8 starting at 10:00 AM, everything is fine. But if I restart the application the event is shifted by one hour (11:00 AM) as if KOrganizer was using an outdated time zone database. When I click on the event to bring up the edit dialog the right time reappears! If I save the event the time is corrected and everything is fine again unless I restart the app.
Has anyone had a similar problem? The only thing I can guess why this is happening is that KDE somehow uses more than one source for the time zone info.

There are a couple of ways you could do it.
Way 1:
Search for a file by name 'glogin.sql' on your client work station and add the following statement
alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure you save the file. This change will apply to all users who will log into the database using SQL*PLUS from your machine.
Way 2:
Create a shortcut and place it some where (for example on the 'DESKTOP').
Right click on the short cut and choose properties.
Change the text corresponding to the 'Start in' box to reflect the current location of the shortcut.
Create a file by name 'login.sql' and place it in the same folder as the shortcut.
Edit the file and add the following line.
alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure that you save the file.
When you double click the shortcut to start SQL*Plus and login, the script 'login.sql' is executed.

Birthday at contact list 1 day behind after sync.. time zone problem?

I found out my iphone have problem with time zone after my US trip.
I lived in NZ and I used NZ time zone all the time and changed to US zone while I was on holiday..
I found out after I backed and change backed to NZ zone.. all the birthday listed under contact list is 1 day behind. Which I checked the information on my macbook the are all correct and time zone is correct as well.
No matter how many time I sync, the birthday still 1 day behind. I tried to change the time zone to US on my phone and manually update to correct local time. all birthdays are correct. But only thing is the worldtime has been messed up since I manually update the phone.
So this solution is not working...
I tried to re-boot, reset the setting. not working...
Once I updated the time zone back to NZ time to fix the world time.. it mess up the birthday again..
Any solutation to work things around? i am at firmware 1.1.1

If the birthdays and the rest of your calendar dates/times are correct on your Mac, try setting the phone's time zone to NZ and then when you sync, from iTunes scroll to the bottom of the Info tab and check the box to replace calenders on the phone.

Solving an Outlook sync time mismatch problem on iPhone calendar

I was recently in spain and my time automatically updated. I was using automatic time zone correction in Settings/General/Date & Time with "set automatically" and under calendar "time zone support" was "ON".
However, upon returning home, apparently, that "auto time zone" didn't work properly. My time updated properly, and everything else was fine, but upon my next sync, all of my appointments were 4 hours off. (my trip to Spain had a 6 hour difference... so it wasn't exactly that).
By going into Settings/General/Date and searching for a city in my time zone, and selecting it, my calendar items' time was corrected.

Based on your response it sounds like this particular featureset is a bit more capable and complex than I'd originally hoped.
I didn't recall choosing any city while in Spain, as the time on the phone updated on its own, and I hadn't started sync'ing the calendar with Outlook yet at that point.
When I returned home, I did my first calendar sync, and again hadn't chosen any city upon return, then after choosing a local city, the time corrected.
Everything is working fine now (as it wasn't posted as a question) but this is a discussion I hadn't found on here and thought it was a worthwhile discussion to have since I surely can't be the only person whose run into the misunderstanding in functionality.

Time change problem in sync'ing w/Outlook Calendar

I have 2ndG iPod touch, 2.2.1 software and iTunes 8. Each time I sync the touch with my Outlook (2007) calendar, the touch changes the time zone from Eastern to California time for each event on my touch calendar. I've checked, rechecked and triple checked the time zone listed under Settings -> General (says New York) as well as under Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars (time zone support also shows New York). For example: Outlook calendar states the event begins at 7:15pm, after sync'ing the Calendar on touch says the same event begins at 10:15pm. I've manually changed each even in the past but since I schedule 2 months in advance, it's a real hassle to keep fixing them.
Is there another time zone change that I need to make? Why is this happening?
Thanks.

I've called Apple Support. The suggestion is to reboot my iPod; start iTunes; connect my iPod; check the settings in iTunes for calendar (did already but I'll try it again); turn off my iPod & disconnect from my computer; reconnect my iPod while it is "off" to my computer while iTunes is running; then sync again and see what happens. If it doesn't work I'm supposed to call them back. Since today is a 12hr work day, it might be tomorrow before I have time to try this and report back.
Thanks for your help.

Curve 8520 not syncing OK with OUTLOOK 2007 - Time Zone problems

I have a BB Curve 8520 with OS 5.0.0.136
BB Desktop Manager is Version 7.1.0.33
Desktop PC OS is WINDOWS 7
MS Office OUTLOOK 2007
Time for W7 set to automatic internet update
Time zone for W7/Outlook2007: (-3) Buenos Aires
Time for BB 8520 set to MANUAL (same time as W7 set manually - No network time update)
Manually set BB Time Zone: (-3) Buenos Aires (No auto time zone update)
I do not travel anywhere where I may need automatic time zone change.
The Desktop is set not to sync time from BB with the Desktop PC time.
I set up an appointment in OUTLOOK 2007 at 08:00 hs. When I sync calendar (biderectionally) with the BB, the appointment in BB appears one hour late => 09:00 hs.
If I set an appointment in BB (say 09:00) and sync calendar, it appears in OUTLOOK 2007 one hour ahead (08:00)
If I set BB Time Zone to (-4) Santiago, then both appointment times are the same.
Any clue as to how to solve this strange behavior will be most welcome!
With BB AND DESKTOP PC times equal, and both BB AND DESKTOP PC Time Zone set to the same (say (-3) Buenos Aires), appointment times should be the same in the BB and the Desktop PC.

Morning.
Let's try this. Read through this thread. You probably have a corrupt record somewhere in your calendar.

Different time zones in the same calendar subscription

Dear kind helpers,
To state my problem as clear as possible, I need to be a bit long. Sorry for that.
I registered to a calendar displaying the rugby schedule for the VI nations tournament:
-> http://www.rbs6nations.com/tools/calendars/sixnations-fixtures-6n-all.ics
from the official web site:
-> http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/matchcentre/downloadable_fixture_list.php
The only thing you need to know about this tournament is that it involves 6 teams (hence the name):
- 2 on the continent, then at GMT+1 (France and Italy),
- 4 on the British Isles (Englands, Walles, Scotland and Ireland), then at GMT+0
I think all of these nations have the same summer / winter shifts.
I'm on the continent, Central European Time for the time zone support feature on iCal (OS 10.9.1).
I guess it's GMT+1 plus winter shift at the moment.
I notice the same following problem on my iPod (iOs 5.1.1), sync through iCloud
Here the problem : it seems all the games are in local times !
For instance, a game in the Islands (Scotland, England, ...) appears at 5pm whereas I would like it to appear at 6pm (so the time is correctly displayed for British Isles, not for the continent) / a game on the continent (France or Italy) will appear at 5pm and I'm fine because it's right the correct time in my time zone. I've no idea how a game which takes place on the continent appears in the British Isles :-(
So a few questions :
- am I clear about the problem ?
- is it a problem from iCal or from the subscription itself ?
- in case it's iCal, is there a way to fix the trouble ?
PS : I experienced the same problem with an other subscription a few years ago ; it was also for a european championship schedule across different time zones displayed in the same calendar. This one was discontinued.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is an issue with the subscription itself. The times for the events are set in 'floating' time and whatever time zone you use it iCal will show the event as being at that time local time (which obviously won't be right unless you are in the correct time zone).
I could post a more technical explanation if you like.
Best wishes

How to escalate Time Zone bug in iPhone Calendar to Apple?

Hi, does anyone know how to escalate a bug in the iPhone calendar software to Apple?
Time Zone support on the iphone which causes calendar items created in location "Kuwait" to be saved as "Gulf Standard Time" and not "Arabian Standard Time", which means that they arrive one hour out of sync in iCal.
To replicate the problem:
1. Turn on time zone support in both the iPhone and iCal
2. Set the location to Kuwait on both
3. Create an item in the calendar on the iphone
4. Allow it to sync over Mobile Me
5. See that it turns up 1 hour out in iCal
6. Open the event in iCal and notice that it is set to "Gulf Standard Time" and not "Arabian Standard Time"
The workaround is to turn the time zone on the iPhone to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which apparently is correctly matched to "Arabian Standard Time"
Thanks
Giles

Update to software 4 time zone problem

When I updated software to version 4 the time zone changed from UK to Europe which is 1 hour ahead of UK time
you must turn off SET AUTOMATICALLY if do not and just change tome zone to London it keeps changing at different times of the day
TURN OF SET AUTOMATICALLY
it also changed events during sync between OUTLOOK calender and iphone calander
begining to think version 4 sorftware has many problems

I noticed a related problem with ios-4 on my iPhone 3GS.
Even if I turn OFF time zone support (under Settings/Mail/Calendars), the times of entries in my calendar STILL change when I change the time zone (under Settings/General/Date & Time).
The only way I can make it work reliably is to turn off "Set automatically". Then if I travel to a different country, simply change the time (not the time zone). Also, in iCal on the Mac, be sure to turn off time zone support (under Preferences / Advanced).

ICal time zone problems with 10.10

I travel all over the world so I use multiple time zones for iCal and until Yosemite I never had any problems. Now iCal for some reason will automatically select the time zone at the top of the list of time zones regardless of my current location. Biggest problem is that iCloud is now storing that same info so that when I enter an event on my iPhone 5s (8.3) it does not accept the phones current location, it accepts whatever time zone is at the top of the list from iCal on my MBP. Because the iCal on the iPhone does not allow a selection of time zones I then have to go into iCal on the MPB to change or verify what time zone the phone set.
I never ever had any problems in the past until Yosemite. Know I can delete my iCal plist, but that will remove "ALL" time info on everything.
Does anyone know if there is a way to remove the time zone list without effecting current events?
The other problem I have is that as countries around the world are changing from standard time to daylight time or the other way around. iCal is not allowing me to set new events days, weeks or months in advance to the time zone at that time. So that I no longer can tell if I have selected say Standard Eastern Australian Time or Daylight Eastern Australian Time ... that goes for nearly every county.

Have the same with a German timezone. Both computers are in German time, published calendar is in US time. Looks like the calendar that you access online is using the US server time as reference.

Whimsical Time Zone Problem

I've been noticing during the month I've had my iPhone that, while it keeps good time, often it'll show the time for the wrong time zone. For instance, today it showed the time as 2:40 pm. I panicked for a second thinking that I had forgotten to pick up my son from school. Then I realized it couldn't possibly be 2:40 pm. I've had this problem before, so it was easy to assume it was wrong this time, too. But I've seen it more than an hour off also. The minutes are always correct.
Anyway, once I plug my iPhone into my computer, the time zone syncs up again and it shows the correct time.
I always have my iPhone set on my correct city as far as Time Zone goes. But is there another setting I don't have set right, or is this a genuine bug, or what?

You are using it correctly.
There are several issues with the iPhone which relate to the time zone and setting the time.
We are all hoping that Apple fixes these in the next software release (and hoping that is soon).

Time Zones problem in IDoc Adapter

Hello,
we have a problem regarding time zones. We send an IDoc from an external system to the XI IDoc adapter. the external system has only one time zone which is set to CET. Our SAP XI system as well as the op system is also set to CET and the same also goes for all user properties.
We need the value of "TIME_SENT" from the xml message header to achieve our mapping. This works out pretty good but unfortunately we find the wrong time in the xml message header, which is UTC in this case.
Does anyone know where in the J2EE engine or in the IDoc adapter this UTC date comes from and where to configure the time zone?
Thanks in advance

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

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.

I have got one requirement in my project.
The requirement is like this. The User(USER1) will create the sales order for the company Code 1000(Austrlia) and the same user will create the Sales order for the company code2000(United states).
The creation time should be taken from company code time zone.But it is taking from user time zone.Is there any User exit to solve this problem or is there any settings available to solvethis problem.
Thanks & Regards,
