Time is out of joint

I am in Moscow with my Macbook Pro (running 10.6.8) and my iPhone 4s. The phone displays the correct time, but the macbook pro displays an hour too early. The Macbook is set to using the time server and automatic location detection. I knows it is in Moscow, but it thinks that Moscow is GMT+3, rather than the correct GMT+4. Is there a way of convincing the computer that it is getting bad advice from the location finding system without abandoning in the time server?

This is the crux of the problem, unfortunately:
I can set the 'Time and Date' preferences until time runs out for all of us, I fear, but when I restart, the preferences revert to GMT and the time is, indeed, Greenwich mean.
The preference I set for the 'Date and Time' simply will not hold past a restart; the settings will not even stay put past a 'Quit' and relaunch of the System Preferences application!
The crucial preference is, of course, the time zone, since the clock follows the location.
I don't want to do this, but the next step for me, I suppose, is to take the router off line and connect to my DSL provider using their modem. I may even use a different DSL modem I have.
This is a lot of bending and stooping and plugging in and out and my back is not up to the task at the moment.
I suppose I can live with the menu bar clock showing the correct time and date. My workaround is to leave the pref at GMT and simply set the right time for my location manually—then I uncheck the time server checking option.
I'm not saving files for which the date which gets stamped is mission-critical (as the cliché goes).
Thanks much for your interest, I have enjoyed getting your feedback.

  • Face time fades out and then tries to reconnect on new ipad retina display on WiFi.  Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from exact same location and same contact.  WiFi signal strong on both devices.  What gives?

    Face time fades out and then retries to connect (new Ipad Retina Display) on WiFi. Iphone 4s has no problem with face time from same location and same contact.  What gives?

    Is the router to small?
    Not necessarily, if you are using Facetime all the data goes through your WiFi router, your cable/DSL modem, your ISP and the internet to Apple's Facetime servers and then, in reverse, down to the Facetime recipient. If your ISP connection is too slow or there is excessive traffic on the internet you can have Facetime problems.
    Most WiFi routers can handle this unless others in the house are also using WiFi at the same time. The problem may be your ISP connection or congestion on the internet, etc.

  • In iCal, "Available Meeting Times" greys out working hours one day off, MS Exchange

    I am using iCal, accessing an MS Exchange server. When setting up a meeting, "Available Meeting Times" greys out the non-working hours of potential meeting participants. However, the days are one day off. E.g. the working hours of my collegues are displayed are Tuesday-Sunday instead of Monday-Friday. The dates and times of meetings are relayed correctly. Only the display of the working hours seems to be off.
    Needless to say that my collegues are using Windows Outlook, and everything works there.

    I still have the same issue. Had it ever since at least 2010 and meanwhile we switched Exchange-Servers and I'm on Mavericks, but still. Looks to me as if iCal requests something like "getWorkDays" from teh Server. The Server probably replies [2,3,4,5,6]. When the week starts on Sunday, this is perfectly fine. But if the Week starts on Monday, this will give you Tue-Sat as available Days. So it might be a bug in either Exchange or iCal to treat that information correctly, but I'm not obv. not sure about that.

  • Some of your Quick time is out of date. You can fix this problem by updatin

    I am running Windows XP SP2 with V 7.1.3 of Quicktime. Every time I lauch QT, I get the error message:
    "Some of your Quick time is out of date. You can fix this problem by updating to the latest version."
    I have gone onto Apple's web site and got the very latest I can see of QT, and no matter what I keep getting this message. I have 400 PC's in a school district that every time they lauch QT it gets this error. There are 2 tabs "update now" or "cancel". If we select Update now, it doesn't update because we already have the latest. So we just have to do "cancel". Has anyone seen this? Please help.

    How does one get Time Machine out of a "Preparing to Backup" loop to actually doing a backup? thanks, AR

    Hi..
    Thanks for the reply..
    My original I Phone 5 was running IOS 6.12
    My I phone 5S currently runs IOS 8..When I upgraded it, it had IOS 7 on it which made the I Photo app compatible with everything below IOS 8...( which the photo app is not compatible with ) so I just connected the I Phone 5S to my computer and thinking the new phone had IOS 7 on it that these was nothing to worry about..I thought all 900 + pictures in the photo stream would transfer but somewhere in the process, I Tunes decides to just go and install IOS 8 which requires that you run a " Photo Migration App" to transfer photos from IOS 7 & below. The problem was is that I didn't want IOS 8 on my new 5S so I thought I wouldn't have to do that part..
    Anyway the phone emerged with IOS 8 on it and the only photos that remained were the ones that were actually on the phone..The 900 + I had in the stream didn't transfer because the Photos that works on IOS 7 and below isn't compatible with IOS 8..I guess you have to use the photo migration app that comes with IOS 8 & I phone 6..But I didn't ask to upgrade to IOS 8...It just did it on it's own!
    I still have the I Phone 5 Back up that I did just before giving it back to Verizon but if I try to restore the I Phone 5S running IOS 8 those photos in the stream will not go back on the phone because IOS 8 isn't compatible with the I Photos" that ran on IOS 7 and below..
    So I have an I Pad mini that runs IOS 7..should I try and erase it...and put that I Phone 5 backup on it and pray the photos that were in the stream come back on it so I can transfer them back to my computer...then erase the I pad mini again and restore it using it's original backup that I have on the computer and the in the cloud?
    I know this sounds confusing but I'm at a loss as to what to do..This is what I found ...http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201386
    but it doesn't help me..

  • I'm trying to make a time sheet and include a grid, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to print a full grid on my spreadsheet.  There are options for shaded grids but I want a defined grid, and I have spent the last 2 hours looking for the answer

    I'm trying to make a time sheet and include a grid, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to print a full grid on my spreadsheet.  There are options for shaded grids but I want a defined grid, and I have spent the last 2 hours looking for the answer.  Any ideas?

    Hi Cynthia,
    Are you planning to have this table do any of the calculation, or is is to be used as the electronic equivalent of a sheet of paper with a grid printed on it—a place to record the data.
    For your seven column table:
    Are you using one or more rows at the top of the table to label the data below? If so, you might want this row (or these rows) to be set as Header Rows.
    Are you using the leftmost column to label the rows? If so, you may want this column to be a Header column.
    The default table supplied on the "Blank" templates contains one header row and one header column. If you need more (or fewer) Header rows or columns, select the table, then go Table (menu) > Header Rows > (choose the number you need). Repeat to set the number of Header Columns.
    To make a seven column table from the table supplied by default, click on any cell in column H (The eighth column), and drag right to add more cells to the selection, until you get to the last column of the table. With these cells selected, Go Table > Delete Columns.
    To make the remaining seven columns fit across a single page:
    Go View > Show Print View to show the table as it would appear when printed to paper.
    Select the table by clicking its icon in the Sheets List to the left (easy method), OR by carefully clicking on the outside boundary of the table itself (fiddley method).
    With the table selected, you will see square white handles at each corner and at the middle of each side (including the top and bottom).
    With the mouse, grab the handle in the middle of the right side of the table and drag right (or left) until the table just fits onto the width of the defined page.
    With the table still selected, set the thickness and colour of the cell boundaries using the Gaphics Inspector (as described by Jerry), or using the Stroke, Thickness and Color Well controls in the Format bar above the working portion of the Window.

    Barry

  • Yahoo Mail spontaneously times me out of my mail,

    Yahoo Mail spontaneously times me out of my mail, even while working in my email account. I have to log in again and in less than a minutes logs me out again. Yahoo says is an issue with Mozilla 13 and give the following link.

    I also experience error messages when attaching files and when sending or moving messages.
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. I am considering not using Firefox anymore due to problems it causes with my Yahoo email.

    This can be caused by the connection settings having the default setting.
    Try to select the "No Proxy" setting instead of the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting.

  • HT201232 My I phone is restart after some time. Some times find out its off then if I press Home   Power button then again re-start. Some time after coming apple logo it take auto restart ...display become blue color.

    My I phone is restart after some time. Some times find out its off then if I press Home + Power button then again re-start. Some time after coming apple logo it take auto restart ...display become blue color. I have restored through I tunes and got I cloud backup. But stll have same problem.

    Try once again to restore using iTunes, but this time without using a backup, to make sure that this is not software related.
    If the phone still restarts on it's own, get it checked, this might then be hardware related after all.

  • Time in/ Out correction details needs to be edit from ESS

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    I have to provide my employees the functionality where they can make the changes the in their Time IN/OUT detals on ESS. Once the detals has been modified by requestor, the same has been sent to supervisor for his/her approval.
    After the approval process completed , the datails has been updated in ESS as well TEVEN table.
    Please suggest how to achieve this.
    Thanks,
    Pramod Sharma

    Try Clock in/ out for this -
    Employee Self-Service-> Service-Specific Settings-> Clock-In/Out Corrections-> Processing Processes
    Create Rule Groups - Assign the rule groups to employees.
    Also configure WEBMO to define rule group for customizing table in web environment.
    Define Periods for Clock-In/Out Corrections - Here you can define for how many days retroactive processing on Clock in/out is possible. In can be defined in the next IMG node.
    If you want to restrict Future processing implement BADI u201CPT_COR_REQu201D (implementation ZHRESS_PT_COR_REQ).
    Get current request date in the BADI, and check it against sy-datum. If applied date is greater than the current date, then give an error.
    Define processing process - Here you can define workflow related things. This rule is for all employees. Specify workflow template number for clock in/out and check u201CCorrections have to be approvedu201D.
    You can configure:
    1. Enter a processing process.
    2. Select the actions that you want your employees to be able to carry out in the web application.
    3. If you use the SAP Business Workflow, enter the relevant workflow template for the possible employee actions.
    All the clock in / out entries will be directly updated in IT 2011 (TEVEN table)
    Transation: SWFVISU
    Maintain the task of the WF and the application to be launched for this task. For approving clock in / out work item, make an entry for TS99100003 which is a copy of standard task 12300097. This task is associated with a custom developed ABAP WD component.
    To open this task in UWL to approve clock in/ out, make entries.
    Layout of the Web Application
    Configure calendar: In this activity you can define
    - The scale of a cell (the period (in hours/minutes) that a cell represents)
    - The first clock time displayed
    - The number of rows
    If required, you can specify the visible part of the day in line with the employees period work schedule. This enables you to display within one rule group, calendars in which different parts of the day are visible. This is useful if employees within one rule group have different shift patterns.
    This is for clock in/out. check if you can the same service.

    You can not activate it without a SIM. If it is carrier locked, the SIM must be from the carrier it is locked to.
