What is the wisdom of a calendar program that wrongly changes appt times?

Does anyone know why the iCal program doesn't have safeguards to "lock" appointment dates and times a user sets?
This week has to be a real eye opener for hundreds if not thousands of Mac users whose appointment times were changed by the DST patch.
After the Daylight Savings Time patch, my clock was correct but my appointment times were changed--ALL WERE MOVED FORWARD ONE HOUR. In other words a 10:00 am appointment now reads 11:00 am.
1.) Has this been addressed by Apple?
2.) Is this a problem with all OS versions and all iCal versions?
3.) Finally, if a calendar can't keep times, what good is it?
Does anybody have the definitive answers to these questions?
I'd love to hear Apple has changed this in later versions of iCal. Otherwise, I have to start looking for a new calendar program. I just about lost a major contract yesterday because I showed up at the wrong time because of iCal.
  Mac OS X (10.4.9)   also use Mac OS X (10.4.3) and .Mac

Robert,
I'm hoping this was a problem addressed by Apple and that because I synced with an older version of ical it came up. In looking through past posts, most are from last year. Your problem was mentioned in past posts. I don't change my times so I haven't seen that problem--use when my clock was adjusted for DST.
I'm looking for someone who knows more about it.

  • What are the 5 Most Useful Shareware programs you've come across?

    I wanted to lighten the mood on the forum with all of the complaints about the MBP with something potentially useful to current users as well as potential users like myself. I was just wondering what were the 5 most useful shareware programs people have come across for their MBP? It can range from security add ons, or networking tricks, really anything that saves you a few minutes of your day that you think sets your MBP apart from other MBPs and other portables in general.
    Oh, and please try not to include the macsaber....yes it was funny...the first 10 threads....

    1. Radio widget from WU: http://radiotuner.wuersch.net/
    you can just add any radion stream (url), they also have a list on their website (needs real player)
    2. Transmit (very user friendly FTP)
    3. Macjanitor (keeps the system tidy)
    4. VLC player (plays most media extensions)
    5. Skype (Phone any lan or mobile in the world from you mac/pc for a fraction of the cost, as well as normal chat)
    Actually i think most of that lot is freeware apart from Transmit; bargain!
    honorable mention for Appzapper, SuperDuper, google earth and firefox.

  • TS2198 ical (the calendar program) that came with this apple mac pc suddenly stopped working, then disappeared from the computer, from the desktop where I have been using it for the past two years, without trouble, then from the list of applications. . .

    ical (the calendar program) that came with this apple mac pc suddenly stopped working. When I pulled the icon from the desktop, it then disappeared from the computer.I have been using it from the desktop for the past two years, without trouble. It has uninstalled itself, without my intervention and has eradicated all traces of it, including all my entries from the computer memory. There is no program in the applications list. Can you say why this may have happened please?

    I opened one of the .calendar folders. There was a folder named Events which had either one or some files ending .ics. I opened several of these, which put up a dialogue window showing some parameters with data strings attached as follows :-

  • What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus

    Hi guys,
    thanks for your responds,
    I believe my laptop has a virus or spyware. It is slow and take ages to comes up. Also during using internet exploring it is very slow in internet browsing.
    During use of msn chat voice sometime it freeze.
    What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus.
    I already have Norton 2007 with the latest update.
    thanks

    Hi
    > What is the best way to be sure that there is no virus?
    The best way is to use an Antivirus application and some Anti malware and Trojan applications.
    You use already the Norton Antivirus program. This is great. Be sure that this application is always up-to-date.
    Additional you could install Adaware. This is freeware tool and it scans your OS for malware.
    But the virus or malware is not always a reason for an OS freezing.
    Please check your processes which are running in the OS background. You can use additionally the application called CClean.
    It scans you OS for troubles and repair the registry.
    Maybe it helps

  • What's the maximum number of Apple TVs that can be displayed in the AirPlay list?

    We have 50 conference rooms all on the same network and are considering equiping each one with an Apple TV for AirPlay Mirroring our iPad 2s to the rooms projector, or TV. What is the maximum number of Apple TVs that can be displayed in the AirPlay menu to select the correct Apple TV for the conference room being used?

    From what you're saying it sounds as though you wouldn't want to Airplay to all AppleTVs at once, just identify them when that specific room in use?
    This is one of those uncharted territories wheer most domestic users will not require such a set up - Apple provide no official info about this, but they'd be your best source to ask.

    what is the maximum size of a jpg that can be imported into iPhoto

    I've imported and worked on Photoshop and tiff files up at 220 MB (8400 x 6600 pixels) in size.  It does take some time to do any edits, up to 7 seconds for some.   220 MB is a big file but iPhoto handles it OK.
    I do have a top of the line iMac with SSD drive so it's pretty fast.  Other Macs may be slower depending on their configuration.
