Why is the time wrong when setting itself automatically under Lion

My Date and Time preferences are set to ‘set date and time automatically’ and the zone is set to Europe (where I live).
However, since updating to Lion 10.7.1 (via the App Store), the time is showing as 8 hours early (ie USA time. What is the cause for this and are there any fixes?
Thanks?

That is what makes the time go wrong. I can only ‘fix’ it by setting it to manual and adjusting it myself. Every time I set it to ‘automatic’ it sets itself not to European times (as selected) but to 8 hours earlier....

    Yep - I was only looking at Text Size.
    But still, not sure what the deal is. The "1" is just as readable as any other number on the keyboard regardless.

  • S4 Chooses incorrect time zone when set to automatic

    My S4, and my son's, are choosing the incorrect time zone when the phones are set to choose automatically.
    The phones were working and my son noticed his was off earlier in the week and mine seems to have developed the same issue sometime last evening.
    They are both choosing Central Time and should be choosing Mountain Time.
    Location services are enabled on both (GPS & Verizon as well as Google Wi-Fi)
    I've launched my phone in Safe Mode and the issue still occurs
    On my son's we chose to set time zone manually which works, but it reset itself to automatic later and returned to being incorrect.
    Thanks for any help.

    On my phone I believe it was the day I posted here (April 14th) on his a couple days prior to that.
    Both had 'fixed' themselves until his changed back a couple days ago
    No new apps, latest update applied to both phones (after his was already showing incorrect time).
    Also of note, 3 other S4's in the household that do not have the issue(...yet?)
    As mine is currently working I don't suppose there's a need for me to run in safe mode, but I will pass the instructions on to him

  • Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

    In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

    ''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
    Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
    '''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
    * http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
    * clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
    There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
    * Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
    * You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
    * "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)

  • My iPhone has just started getting the time wrong

    My iPhone has just started getting the time wrong. Whether I have 'set automatically' on or off, it still sets the clock and hour ahead of the real time. If I reset it correctly, within 10m it has incorrectly reset it. It is amazingly frustrating!

    Hello justveils,
    It sounds like you are not able to erase just one letter when backspacing.  I recommend following steps in the tutorial below to address an issue like this (you can skip step 2 "Recharge iPhone" because it's not related to this issue).  I think the step to reset your iPhone my be particularly useful in this scenario:
    To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    You can find the full tutorial here:

  • Can't see the time on my set top box

    I don't know why, but the time doesn't show on my set top box, even though it's set to show clock. This happens 2 of the televisions where I will walk into the room and it is showing the channel instead of the time. I continually look on the menu and it still says "show clock," nothing ever changes and sometimes I end up unplugging the box and plugging it back up.
    I've only had Fios for just about a month. Is this normal?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    No it is not normal, but it happens pretty frequently to me. At least for me, it is not necessary to unplug the STB (I have a 6414 DVR and a couple of 2500 STBs and this works on all of them), just go into the menu to where the clock setting is, change it to Show Channel Number so it matches what you are actually seeing, then change it to Show Clock. Get out of the Menu and wait for up to one minute, and the clock should be displayed.
    I see this problem anywhere from one day to the next to a month between occurances. But I could probably do the "fix" in my sleep now, it only takes 15-20 seconds to do.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why is the screen bluring when i stream a movie I rent fron itunes?

    Why is the screen bluring when i stream a movie I rent fron itunes?

    What is the year and model and screen size, amount of RAM in your iMac?
    Do you use a broadband Internet connection? Do you use WiFi on your iMac with wireless router or Airport router?
    Internet streaming data speeds are dependent on how many users are streaming data on the same network at the same periods of time as you are.

  • Why is the time remaining going up as I install adobe inDesign through creative cloud?

    Why is the time remaining going up as I install adobe inDesign through creative cloud?

    Downloads have built-in "checksums" (I think that's the correct term that basically check to make sure the bits of data are being downloaded correctly.
    Sometimes the previous check has to redownload the previous bits. That can cause the time to go up.
    Also, it may be that your bandwidth speed is slowing down or lots of others are accessing the bandwidth.
    BUT if the download goes way, way up—like instead of 12 minutes, it goes to 6 hours, something's wrong with the installation.

  • With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?

    With "Do Not Disturb" active, why does the iPhone beep when plug in for recharge?
    I usually go to bed after my wife. I have the Do Not Disturb set for 11 pm to 7 am, and I can see the moon symbol.
    So why when I go to bed at midnight and plug in my iPhone to recharge do I get a LOUD BEEP?
    My wife is banning my phone from being next to my bed and an alarm clock.
    To me it seems that the "Do Not Disturb" should turn this beep into a vibrate.

    section2i:
    If that is true, then you should file that as a bug using the link above:
    If I am reading what you are saying correctly, you are saying that when vibrate is 'off', and you turn on the phone and plug it in that a vibration occurs, and that it is not respecting the vibrate 'off'.
    That would be a slightly different issue from what I am asking about (Do Not Disturb), and would probably need a separate bug report.
