TimeZoneSupport messed up all my appointment times - how do I fix it?

All of my appointments have had their time changed and I am urgently seeking help to return them to their correct times.
I have 3 devices:
Apple MacBook Pro (mid 2009) running the latest version of Snow Leopard
iPad 2 running iOS 4.3.5
iPhone 3GS running iOS 4.3.5
I'm also using MobileMe to keep my appointments, address book, etc. in sync.
I just moved to Kathmandu, which is 9:45 ahead of EST (the east coast of the US, where I lived formerly and where I will return in one year). When I left the US I updated the timezone on all my devices to change them from EST to Nepal time. After doing this all of my appointment times were changed.
After investigating I found that although I had TimeZone support turned off on my MacBookPro, it is set to be on by default on iDevices. I have now turned it off by it seems that the damage has been done. Hopefully there is a way to undo the problems this has caused, since I now have years of appointments showing the wrong times (they are off by 9:45).
Just to be clear, I have no need for TimeZoneSupport. If I have an appointment at 10:00 am (EST) on, say, Sept. 1 in the US, and another appointment at 10:00 am (Nepal time) on, say, Sept. 21 in Nepal, I want my calendar to show both of those events as being at 10:00 am on their respective days.
I believe that now that I have turned off TimeZoneSupport on all devices that this will be the case for any new appointments that I create, but how can I return all of my previos appointments to their correct time? There are far too many of them to edit them manually.
Many thanks for any help that anyone can provide. This has really messed up my workflow!
best wishes,
Abe Z.

No answers? C'mon people, please help a guy out! There are lots of threads here about the need to turn Time Zone Support off, but none about what to do when it has already messed up all your appointments. I can't imagine I'm the only one who has been caught by this "feature" of Apple's.
thanks for any suggestions or help,
Abe Z.

    Run Disk Utility to verify/repair your drive(s).  Boot from your installer dvd to repair the boot drive.  If the repair reports that it fixed anything then see if your problem is fixed.

    Hi Will555uk,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone is restarting unexpectedly, I recommend starting with step three in this troubleshooting guide:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Best,
    Jeremy

    My ipod touch 64G doesnt allow me to do anything in my music app. I cant even play music or select anything.  But I can use all other apps.  How do I fix this??? PLS Help me:(

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs.  How do I fix this?

    I tunes can't find original song files of all my songs.  How do I fix this?

    Itunes stores ripped cds in the 'itunes' folder called 'itunes music' which under normal installation should reside into your 'My music' folder. Your music folders on the DVD then have to be copied into the 'Itunes music' folder for itunes to find it.
    The tracks with the exclamation marks have registered with the incorrect location into the library. You can do two things:
    Either search in the folder where you copied them from the DVD at the earlier step described above which means that you will have to do this for every single track, or the fastest way, delete all the incorrect entries and re-import by drag and drop into library the folders with the music you want to show in the library.

  • I just downloaded the new version of Firefox (ver 4). Now when I open Firefox I get the address bar but the information part of my screen is blank. This happens on all web sites. How do I fix this? IE works fine.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • HT1349 I updated my Itunes and my entire library disappeared including all my playlists.  How do I fix this?

    I updated my Itunes and my entire library disappeared including all my playlists.  How do I fix this?

    Are they really gone?  Look in your Home > Music > iTunes folder and folders inside. Do you see media there?  Also try to use Spotlight to search for things you know you have.
    If you keep media on an external drive, are they there?  If it is all there, try starting iTunes with the option key held down and guide to the external.
    If really gone, use a backup of your drive to restore the iTunes folder.
    If no backup and they are really gone, you can download some items from Apple again.  You'll have to re-construct the library though as all the playlists, ratings, date added, and some other things will be gone.
