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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Ical not showing time zones

    Why do iCal invitations not the show time zone of invite? And why does it get the time zone wrong in the calendar of the invited person if that person is on a different time zone?
    Anything I can do about that?

    You need to be posting this in the Calendar forum since you are asking questions about iCal/Calendar.

  • Is my iPhone calendar reading from the wrong time zone? How do I fix it?

    First, here is all the info that I have about all of the clocks on my phone: the date and time on my iPhone are set automatically to Vancouver's time zone, in the Clock app though, I've also added in the clocks for Seoul and Manila so that I know the time when I need to contact friends out there, etc. Location wise, everything else on my phone is fine: my map correctly shows where I am, the weather app shows the weather for my city and my clock changes automatically for daylight savings.
    Now, when I put in an event into the calendar app, while putting in the details such as start and end time, the Time Zone slot is always set to Seoul for some reason. I have to go in and change it to Vancouver manually. Even after doing this and setting everything though, the alarm always goes off at the wrong date and time - I think it' s going off at when that time reaches Seoul, not Vancouver. So then I tried setting it again, this time, leaving the time zone as Seoul in case things were somehow just 'backward' in my phone, and still the alarm went off at the wrong date and time.
    I really can't understand it and haven't got the faintest clue as to how to fix it. Any ideas??
    In case this better or further explains what I'm trying to say:
    I just opened a new event on my calendar. I set it to begin twenty minutes from now (5:20AM) and left the ending time as the default one hour later (6:20AM). I also did not change the time zone which is already reading Seoul for whatever reason. I hit done, I'm taken back to the main calendar page, and there it shows as it should: 5:20AM today. I then went to set second event for 5:15AM only this time, I changed the timezone to Vancouver. All the information looks correct, but this time, when I hit done and am taken to the main calendar page, that event is recorded as having been set to 21:15PM instead!!
    [ I have an iPhone 4 but...I don't know what CDMA or GSM means so I'm not sure which pertains to me...]

    Go to Settings>Mail, etc.>iCloud and delete the account. Then add in a new account with the details you want.

  • ICal time zone correct in month view, but wrong for individual events

    I have my timezone set correctly to Pacific everywhere I know of (iCal upper right corner, iCloud account, computer, iPhone).
    When I create an event (e.g. typing "6:30pm Work out" into a new event block), it shows up correctly (e.g. places itself at 6:30pm in monthly/weekly view).
    However, when I click the event, in the details box it has the wrong timezone set (e.g. says that it's at 1:30am GMT).
    This doesn't impact how things look in my calendar view, or how they sync to my iPhone and my Google calendars, all of that is fine.
    What it DOES impact is that if I need to change the time, I have to go in and switch a bunch of things in invariably clumsy ways (e.g. change it to 7:30pm... oops, now it's tomorrow, switch its timezone to Pacific... shoot, now it's 9:30am, change back to 7:30pm...)
    It's just annoying, and shouldn't be happening. Anyone know what is going on, and how to fix it? I've deleted the calendar cache, but it didn't help.

  • Wrong interpretation of OS time zone

    This problem exists for Oracle 9.0.1.1.0 on Solaris 8.
    The same Java method (using new Date() to get the current datetime) that shows correct datetime when called directly from Solaris console, produces wrong datetime when called as Oracle Java stored procedure.
    This problem is visible for Middle/Central European Time zone which is GMT+1.
    When timezone is set to MET in the OS, then the result of new Date() is datetime appropriate for GMT+03:30 not GMT+01:00.
    When timezone is set to CET in the OS (which on Solaris is equivalent to MET), then the call to new Date() gives datetime appropriate for the GMT zone.
    I can see that the timezone name used in Solaris is (wrongly) interpreted by the JVM as if it were set in Java, because in Java MET represents time zone in Iran! not in Middle/Central Europe. The call to TimeZone.getTimeZone("MET").getDisplayName() results in "Iran Time".
    CET does not exist in Java (they use ECT instead) and is thus by default treated as GMT.
    It is not reported in the list of bug fixes for Oracle 9i Release 2 so I assume the problem is still there.

  • HT4623 iOS 8 version 8.1.2 issues with the calendar displaying wrong TIME ZONE!

    I just updated to iOS 8 using version 8.1.2 and am having issues with the calendar.  I use my GMAIL calendar and sync to my iPhone and now any calendar entries that I add from my phone display the current time zone AND GMT time.  Entries that were already there display correctly.  New entries entered from the GMAIL calendar also display correctly.  The issue is with NEW entries entered on my PHONE into the calendar.  This is very annoying and causes problems for new entries that need EDITED.  Once opened to edit it defaults to GMT time!  WRONG!!  I have turned off the automatic time zone feature and Time Zone Override in Settings but it's still WRONG!  There are multiple reports of this online so I would like to know when/if it will be corrected or if there is a fix!  Please help!!

    Quite the same problem here, GMT, UTC.......
    Why when they do an update they don't check it completely???

  • Wrong time zone with rss feed in iWeb

    I'm using the RSS widget in iWeb, and all the RSS items are nine hours off - meaning they're on California time (I'm in Norway). The time zone is wrong even when I look at the feed in iWeb, so I don't think it's a server issue (and I'm not publishing to MobileMe).
    I've found a couple of other questions about this on the board, but no answers, so here we go again... anyone? I've tried several different feeds.

    Same question! There must be some command-line hack to fix this. Any one figured it out?
    It's posted times in USA Pacific time by default (GMT -8). This is iWeb 3.0.1.

  • 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.

  • OS has wrong time zone, so db has wrong time zone after RAC db installed

    hi Guru, after the RAC db installed, and it is a alive production DB, then I realized that the os has wrong time zone which is MDT (mountain time), I want it as CDT, so I am planning to ask sys admin to change os to CDT, then I just need to bounce the db once os time zone changed? Is that right? that won't corrupted the db after os time zone change right? And this is 2 nodes RAC db, anything I need to be aware before os level timezone change?

  • Ical time zone is wrong

    i am syncing with google calendar on 1 MAC desktop, 1 ipad, 1 macbook pro, 2 iphones, 3 PC computers running windows. everything was working fine but recently ical on the mac desktop is wrong. the events time zone is shown as "central africa time" where all the other are in "egypt cairo" time zone. when i click on any event and edit its time zone to cairo, few seconds to reload and then goes back again on ical to "central africa time". where is the problem here. i cannot change ical time zone from "central africa time" to "cairo egypt". there is no feature for that. i turned on the time zone in ical and on the top right the time zone is "cairo egypt" but all the events are on "central africa time". it is correct on google but on ical is not, and i do not know why.

    Hi,
    See my posts here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15103765#15103765
    I suggest you use Tripoli  (EET) as your location as I do not believe OSX's DST definition is up to date with this change in Egypt's timezone.

  • JDKs in weblogic server return wrong time zone

    Hi , i am running weblogic server 8.1.4, 8.1.6 and 10 on my windows vista
    all of the JDK bundled (both Sun's and JRockit) return GMT instead of my local time zone when i call Timezone.getDefault()
    I am quite sure the operating system has set to correct time zone because my self installed JDK (downloaded from sun) works properly (return correct local time zone)
    is that i have missed anything?
    please help.

    I am noticing the same problem with iCal events imported from Orbitz. The thing is that the more I look into it the more I think this is meant as a feature, not a bug. Go into iCal preferences > Advanced and uncheck "Turn on time zone support". Import the event again and this time both the graphic view and the Get Info view will display the same information.
    It appears that this setting is meant to be useful if you travel to different time zones a lot. Basically, with it you get a time zone dropdown menu in iCal. So when you are in a different time zone you can select it from the dropdown and it will show what time your events occur in your new local time. Just keep in mind that when you create a new event it will be created based on the time zone you have selected. So if you are in California and have selected that time zone but you are adding an entry for a meeting you have when you are back in New York make sure that you select the correct time zone when creating that meeting because by default it will be created in California time and when you return to New York and switch your calendar back it will show the event at the wrong time.
