TIME IS WRONG

I have this weird bug that occurs at least once a day where the time changes on it's own, usually setting itself more than 2 hours ahead of the actual time. I do have the "Set Automatically" switched turned to on, as well as location services. To correct it, I have to switch off the "Set Automatically" setting, then turn it back on, but the same problem will occur a few hours later. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is with your carrier, not your phone. If set to automatic, time is updated from your carrier's cell tower. So, contact them.

Date and time are wrong

My date and time are wrong on boot up and won't adjust back to normal automatically. I think the internet is telling me it's a problem with either my PRAM or CMOS or NVRAM battery, the little guy that holds info while the big guy is tapped. I want to replace this. Is that possible? What is the battery actually called?

Hey MisterW,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you wish to reset your PRAM/NVRAM, the following article should assist you:

How many times with wrong password will phone lock out

how many times with wrong password will phone lock out

Depends on whether you have it set to erase data after 10 attempts. Otherwise it will lock out for a certain amount of time and then you can try again before it locks out again. However, if you cannot remember the passcode, you will have to restore the phone on the computer you normally sync with http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

Nokia 3120 classic (message received time is wrong...

Hi.. got some problems with my nokia 3120 classic. I bought my fone 2 wks ago and decide to upgrade my fone to new firmware version which is 7.16, after the fone was updated i noticed that whenever i received txt messages, the received time is wrong.. it is i think 8 hrs late.. I'm txting my friends and when they reply, the received time display is wrong. Is this a bug for the new version? It's not synchronizing in my phone clock. Of course my phone clock is ok.. Message sent time is ok but the received time is wrong. Any suggestions? Pls help..
Solved!
Go to Solution.

ok.. i've figured out already the problem. it's not on the software update but it is due to the GMT. i noticed that even your dates and time are correct, you must set your correct timezone from what country you were. if the auto update time and date is on, i think it varies on the timezone u set on ur fone so if your timezone is wrong, the message receive time is wrong too. well i already solved this.

Times are Wrong from Outlook Invites

Hello-
I use Outlook 2007 from work and I send my wife invites on her MacBook so that we keep our calendars in sync. However when I send her an invite the times are wrong. The email that she receives shows the correct time but the auctual apointment in her iCal is incorrect.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

your wife should check that
in ical>preferences>advanced she has time zone support checked
in system preferences>date&time>date&time she has set date&time automatically checked
in system preferences>date&time>time zone she has the correct time zone and the correct city chosen
you should check that you have the corrrect time settings in your Outlook and in your computer.
hope this helps

Event time is wrong in ical

I just upgraded my MacBook to OSX Mountain Lion, but noticed an event "time" in iCal was wrong when synced with my iPhone 3gs. What's up??

Check Date and Time prefs on your laptop. Is the time correct, and are both devices using the same time zone?

Time stamp wrong in skype and thunderbird while menu bar has correct time

I noticed in my applications like Skype, MSN Messenger, Thunderbird email that the time stamp was wrong. But the Menu Bar clock and the system preferences Date and Time were correct. My exact error is that the app timestamp always showed the time as PM.
I googled for answers and several topics mentioned a locked / misplaced / corrupted localtime file.
However, The real reason is that I had a custom time format under Languages and Text system preference. For some reason the custom format showed morning as PM and evening as PM. I opened the preference, selected time, and changed it from Custom to USA.
There are several similar errors (always showing 20 before time, ie 20:43, always is 7 oclock, ie 7:32, or etc) that were mentioned in other tickets I read.
I followed this post to go into languages and Text to correct the custom time format; http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11503087 (see last post. IGNORE the part about plist!)

Mail displays the date & time according to your System Preferences > International > Formats settings. The specific format used (i.e. Short, Long, etc.) may depend on the column width. It looks like there is something wrong with your Dates > Customize or Times > Customize settings there...
> I've tried expanding the date column width in Mail, and changing to US
(instead of International) Date / Time format in my system preferences
Not sure what you mean. I don’t see an “International” option anywhere other than the name of the International preferences panel itself...

External content based SharePoint list date/time information wrong

So, we have a SQL Server database that contains date/time type data.
When we look at the info in the database, the date and times appear to be in GMT, which is 5 hours before our time.
So, we set up views with a DATEADD calculation to compensate for the difference. When we use the view, the dates and times match our timezone info.
We then set up an external content to our view.
When the data is displayed in rows and columns, we see times that are 10 hours before GMT.
We had put in the dateadd calculations because when we had scripts that grabbed the data from SQL Server and put them into text files, the dates and times were all 5 hours off.
Is there code within the External data connectors (or SharePoint itself) which compensate for the time zones?
Thanks!

Hi Iwvirden,
When you create an External Content Type and External List using the SharePoint Designer, DateTime fields are normalized to UTC using the NormalizeDateTimesetting
associated with the TypeDescriptor for the DateTime field. This leads to the date field wrong in Business
Connectivity Services.
To fix this issue, you can change the normalization to use local time as follows:
<TypeDescriptor TypeName="System.DateTime"
Name="DueDate" DefaultDisplayName="Due Date">
<Interpretation>
<NormalizeDateTime LobDateTimeMode="Local" />
</Interpretation>
</TypeDescriptor>
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Why are my date fields wrong in Business Connectivity Services?

Apple's time server WRONG for Argentina

Due to the Argentine's governments choice NOT to implement day-light savings this year, the Apple time server is an hour off from the official time in Argentina. This screws up my iCal.

I don't know if this is a "solution", but I had the same issue with the clock widget (I have a clock widget set for Argentina because my wife is from there, and the US clock because I am from the US). Anyway, I changed it from "Buenos Aires" to be "Asunción" because at least the Hour was correct. (I also submitted feedback to Apple). Can you perhaps set your timezone to another one that has the correct time (even though it may not be "Argentina")?
I am kind of glad Ar. didn't do the Daylight Saving thing (I think it's stupid to always change the time), but Yes, the clock is now wrong because Apple's servers are wrong... Hopefully they will fix it soon.
Just my thoughts...

Nano World time displaying wrong time!!

I just got hold of my ipod nano this morning. Was so looking forward to it till i found out later on that it wouldn't work with my 3rd party USB2 pci card. That was fine, i just used USB1.1 which took really really really long.
Finally, when it was done, i got to fiddling with it. I toggled to the World Clock and thought it'd be cool to fiddle with it. What i found was that the world clock is displaying all the WRONG times. I'm currently in Perth, Australia which is +8GMT. The ipod's main clock and date are all set correctly, and timezone set to Beijing, which is +8GMT equivalent.
But, when i get the world clock feature to display with my time, it displays 7AM (the real time is 3PM). It's the same with the other regions/times as well. Anybody else have this problem?
Hope somebody comes up with a fix
Thanks!

First, u pop the CD that came with the nano into your computer. Then, you locate the ipod software updater. Just launch that program, click and restore and follow the on scree instructions.
You should be good to go after that

Date & Time are wrong, how is this possible.

I am having a look at my inlaw's computer. Late 2008 15" MPB, 10.6.8/iLife 11.
One of the more strange things I've seen is that in Date & Time preferences the small section above the calendar where it should show the date i.e. 2/19/2012 is essentially missing. There's up and down arrows next to a tiny 1 character width box.
This is affecting multiple things within their user account in terms of files being tagged with the wrong date, in apps like mail, iphoto, etc. 11/24/11 is what is being tagged.
If you click on the clock in the menu bar, which I have set to display day of week, date, and time and is doing so correctly, just below it in the popup box that appears where it should display the same information and give the option for View as analog or digitial, it says Thursday, November 24, 2011 in gray instead of the correct date and time.
I have tried in a test user and issue does not persist.
I have tried SMC/PRAM resets. Persists.
I have tried deleting /etc/localtime. Persists.
I have tried 10.6.8 combo update. Persists.

Try this.
Go to System Preferences > Date & Time > Formats
In the section for Dates, click the Customize button. You should get a screen that looks something like this -
In the upper area, showing boxes for Short, Medium, Long, and Full, make sure that no text has been entered into any of those boxes. They should contain only blue ovals. If you need to replace any of those, drag the appropriate ones up from the lower area of that screen.
Note that the info shown in the blue ovals is representative, and is not intended to show current date info in that screen.

Changing date and time is wrong with time zone problem

Okay, searched some of the forums, but didn't get the most correct answer to this:
I just imported all my photos into Aperture from iPhoto (chose to have Aperture manage files as I don't plan on using iPhoto any longer. When I imported the files, I decided to do some organizing by date into folders. no problem.
In some of my projects, I found some files that I imported from scans or got from others who had a film roll and processed it at a lab, and the dates from those files aren't the dates that the event took place. I went into Metadata>Adjust date and time, and changed the date (not so much the time I'm worried about), and checked the "change the masters" little box, too.
After I close out of that box, the picture has the wrong date. I've determined this is because of the time zone support. I currently live in Japan, and I would like my photos here to show up as the date in the place they were taken. I think the date I enter, it thinks is the date I'm currently in (GMT +9), but aperture chooses to convert the date as if I was saying "hey, the picture I took happened on "date" in GMT +0:00)" which then makes it look in the metadata view as if it happened a day earlier.
Any imported photos come in as the correct date and time and correct time zone, as far as I can see. It's just when I change the date and time it thinks I mean to have aperture convert it to GMT + 0:00. (but on a little more of a funny side... older pictures that happened in other time zones back in the states it lists the correct date and time for when the picture was taken, but "says" it's GMT +9:00) (another issue I'll deal with later maybe!)
Hope I've described it in such a way that you can get it.

I changed time and now my MacBook won't work

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.
Regards,
BMP

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.
