Wrong time when syncing

Hi:
My calendar events appear two hours ahead in ovi. It seems that it is a problem with time zones since events prior to summer daylight saving time (I live in the southern hemisphere) are just one hour ahead. I have looked for a place in ovi.com where to set up my time zone but without success.
I have seen other related posts but none of them offers a solution. Maybe I'm very bad in searching.
Thanks in advance for any help.

The same thing happened t me in Brasil, only it's not two hours, but one.
The appoitment is set to 5pm on my pc calendar, when I sync, it appears 6pm on Nokia E71

Contacts duplicated numerous times when syncing iPhone 4

Since updating to iOS5, when syncing my wife's iPhone 4, many of her contacts are duplicated numerous times. She has Windows 7 and uses MS Outlook for contacts and calendar. Contacts in her Outlook file are not duplicated. I can manually delete the duplications, but the next sync repeats the duplications. How do I stop this madness?

I have the same problem. Using an iPhone 3G.
Events made on the iPhone multiply every time the iPhone is synced with the Macbook. Events made in iCal on the Macbook pro do not seem to double up when synced with the iPhone.
When creating events on the iPhone I usually set the events to repeat every day (until i complete the event and then I delete it)
Hope some one can offer some insight.

Some events appear at wrong time when publishing to web

When I publish my calendar and then view it on the web, events I have created myself in iCal are shown at the correct time, but any events I have recieved from Evolution (the email/calendar application my colleagues use) as an .ics file are shown exactly 8 hours later than they should be. Perhaps it's a coincidence that this is the exact time difference between the UK (where I live and work) and West Coast USA?
Just to make it clear: all events appear correctly in iCal and, if I send a subscribe email to myself and then subscribe to the published calendar, they also appear correctly in iCal. The only place where they appear at the wrong times is in the http://ical.mac.com/<username>/<calendarname> address, and it's only events that I have recieved via email.
Is there a workaround for this that doesn't involve asking my colleagues to change settings on their Ubuntu workstations? Perhaps it's a problem with Apple's ical website that they need to fix? Either way, it makes the business of publishing my calendars largely useless.

It's likely that the problem is due to an incompatibility between the way that the two systems define time zones.
This is what I thought, but iCal itself seems to cope with this, whereas the .Mac iCal web server doesn't, which is a shame.
I suspect that you don't have time zone support switched on in the Advanced tab of Preferences. If you don't, try switching it on and then looking at one of your events and one of the rogue ones in the edit window. You'll probably see a difference in time zones - i.e. that the rogue ones are in US Pacific zone.
I switched on time zone support, but it didn't change any of the events in iCal at all; i.e., the "rogue" events still show at the correct time (and the incorrect time on the iCal web server).
If this guess is correct, you will need to get your colleagues to change their time zone since iCal and ical.mac.com are behaving as they should.
They are all on the same timezone as me - Europe/London (which is currently on DST).
If the guess isn't correct, report back and we'll work on a solution
Then I look forward to hearing from you!

JSP page display wrong time when compared to the server time

Hi,
This problem seems to weird but it is happening
I have web application running where time is displayed in the page. In this application time is very critical. Currently, time is an hour behind the orginal time.
I checked the server it is displaying proper time.
As a matter of troubleshooting, I wrote a java program and run the program in the same server, where the application is running. The java program returns me proper time , but JSP is still displaying time an hour behind. To trouble shoot further, I created a test jsp page to just display the time and accessed the time and the jsp displayed wrong time as well, an hour behind.
I am running[ tomcat 4.0.3 and j2sdk1.4.3 in suse linux enterprise server 9.0
My Java program
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
public class TestDate
public static void main(String s[])
     try{
          DateFormat DF = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd/MM/yyyy");
DateFormat DT = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm aa");
          SimpleDateFormat fmt=new SimpleDateFormat("HH.mm");
          Calendar cal= Calendar.getInstance();
          java.util.Date dt=cal.getTime();
          String curdt=DT.format(dt);
          System.out.println("Server Time" + curdt + "\n");
          int hh = cal.get(Calendar.HOUR);
          int mm = cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
          int aa = cal.get(Calendar.AM_PM);
          System.out.println("Time" + hh +":"+mm+":"+aa+"\n");
     }catch(Exception e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
This display Time3:30:1
My JSP Page
<%@ page import="java.util.*,java.text.*"%>
<%
Calendar calen;
calen = Calendar.getInstance();
int hh=calen.get(Calendar.HOUR);
     int mm=calen.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
     int aa=calen.get(Calendar.AM_PM);
%>
<%=hh%> <%=mm%> <%=aa%>
This display 2 30 1
When I run Date in linux server it gives 3:30 PM EST 2004
I am really confused, why this is happening, If you have any solutions or idea please post the solution.

My guess is that the weirdness is caused by Daylight savings time.
I will presume that you and the server are in the same timezone :-)
Alternatively it could be caused by getting a different Locale.
Try the following
Print out "date.getTime()" value (ie long representing number of millis)
They should be the same (or close) in both the app and in JSP
Try simple date format in your JSP as well - what does that result in?
Print the calendar object, and look for the difference.
It might be in Locale, Timezone, or whether DST is set or not.
Hope this helps,

PSE13 and Revel issues with the notes filed and date/time when syncing.

I extensively use the notes field in PSE13. For photos and videos this seems to get over-written when synced to Revel. For photos I can recover it by selecting 'Update Thumbnail' but during the next sync it over-writes it again.
I also have some files where the date / time are changed when syncing with Revel, particularly video files.
Any ideas?

I also have this problem. The time of my iPod always changes back to the time and date of my last restore every time I sync it. And I know of others with this problem also. Perhaps it is possible that your iPod and mine have been "configured" in a way that causes this issue?

Time and date showing wrong time when set on auto since 4.1 update

hi since i updated my 3gs to 4.1 my time and date have changed by about 1 and a half hours and afew days before. i can change it manually but i dont understand why this has happened. has this happened to anyone else?
can anyone help? or am i just best to wait till the next update?

Me too.
Second time I've been late to work in two weeks thanks to Apple ** programming!
First time when I upgraded to 4.1 and the alarms stopped working if they were set to go off every working day.
Then again today when the time unaccountably rolled back to be Sunday the 7th at 5am instead of WEdnesday 10th at 9am. Waiting for the day I'm out of contract on this rubbish so I can switch to a phone with a decent OS!

Wrong time when using java Calender

Hi All,
I have a Solaris 9 system. The Timezone for which is set to "TZ=Asia/Colombo". I have written a small java code to get the time using Calender class.
The problem is I get wrong time and wrong ZONE offset information
Output of the java code
bash$ java TimeFile
Tue Dec 18 12:53:28 LKT 2007
utcTimeZone ===sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo[id="UTC",offset=0,dstSavings=0,useDaylight=false,transitions=0,lastRule=null]
ZONE offset ===21600000 //Should be 19800000 Since the system is in UTC+5:30
DST offset ====0
System time details
bash$ date
Tue Dec 18 12:23:42 LKT 2007
bash$ date -u
Tue Dec 18 06:53:47 GMT 2007
The java version I am using is
bash$ java -version
java version "1.4.2_04"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_04-b05, mixed mode)
bash$
Below I have pasted the code
public class TimeFile
public static void main(String[] args)
Calendar currentDateNTime = Calendar.getInstance();
Date date = currentDateNTime.getTime();
System.out.println(date);
int offset = currentDateNTime.get(Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET);
int dstoffset = currentDateNTime.get(Calendar.DST_OFFSET);
TimeZone utcTimeZone = TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC");
System.out.println("utcTimeZone ===" +utcTimeZone);
System.out.println();
System.out.println("ZONE offset ==="+offset);
System.out.println("DST offset ====" + dstoffset);
}

Perhaps you should update to a newer version of Java. If you have to stick with 1.4.2, then you should at least use 1.4.2_15.
See also http://java.sun.com/javase/timezones/tzdata_versions.html on information about how to update time zone information in Java. In 2006 there was an update to the timezone info also covering Sri Lanka.

Nokia N97 mini showing me the wrong time when mess...

All the time stamps for my text messages on the N97mini are wrong, it show the time as the I get it on my phone not the actual time the text was sent.
Let say i have set the time of my phone 2:00pm but when i recieve message it shows me the time which the senders network have and dont shows the time which is set on my cell.
That wasn't the case with the N96 and the N95, E51, E75. Is there a way to fix this?
I have changed the time settings on the menu,
II have switch off the Automatic time update, reset the time zone, then set the actual time.
Also already updated the latest firmware for nokia n97 mini.
Im very much worried about it.

Hello, I have the same problem! Where you able to solve it? If yes be so kind to tell me how.
Best Regards

Correct time when syncing Outlook calendar

Does anyone know if there is a way to stop the iPod from converting the calendar alarm times? I have it set for my correct time zone, but when I sync my calendar from Outlook it converts the time as if they were Pacific times. Just as an example, if I have an appt. for 1:00 PM it changes it to 5:00 PM. It always adds 4 hours to whatever time I have in my calendar. I can mentally adjust to it, but it is really annoying.

Not sure what is happening. But did you check to see if the time zone settings are the same on both the iPad and outlook?

Movie clips have wrong time when importing

I use to rename my images before importing to iPhoto. I copy them from my camera to a folder in the desktop, rename everything to my like using Adobe Bridge, and then I import them to iPhoto. That way the name of a file usually corresponds to the one in the internal Library (control-freak as I am). That said, I never mess with the Library.
But I'm having this problem all the time: After importing, all the image pictures are listed on the event accordingly to their correct date/time, but the movie clips are not. They always have an irregular variation in time, sometimes with a difference of several hours, that I have to change manually using iPhoto "adjust date/time" to have them sorted ok chronologically. The strange thing is: that EXIF data is correct in Bridge! I even use this to view/reference the correct time in Bridge, and change it on the movie file already imported in iPhoto.
Could this be a bug in iPhoto, or is there something wrong with my way of importing? Again, it happens only to the movie files, not the images.
Thanks.

Thank you. I didn't know that.
But still, for me it's a common issue to have iPhoto reading a wrong "File Created" data on my imported movies, even though it seems to be OK on the original file. Does it ever happen to you, know about that issue? Sometimes I have ten or more movie clips in an event and it's a bit of a hassle to restore manually the correct time for each one.
Maybe it's Bridge fault, maybe it's iPhoto, maybe my workaround is the only answer to this "bug"?
Thanks again.

Wrong time when adding two dates

Hi
I'm trying to add two Date-objects by adding milliseconds they represent, and convert back to a Date-object. More specific, I have a Date representing midnight on a given day, and another Date representing a time offset on this day, and I want to get a Date representing the time and date on one.
I have made the following example code:
        Calendar c1 = Calendar.getInstance();
        Calendar c2 = Calendar.getInstance();
        c1.set(2009, Calendar.MARCH, 24, 0, 0, 0);
        c1.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
        c2.set(1970, 0, 1, 11, 38, 0);
        c2.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
        long m1 = c1.getTimeInMillis();
        long m2 = c2.getTimeInMillis();
        Date test = new Date(m1);
        Date test2 = new Date(m2);
        Date test3 = new Date(m1 + m2);
        System.out.println(test);
        System.out.println(test2);
        System.out.println(test3);Which outputs
Tue Mar 24 00:00:00 CET 2009
Thu Jan 01 11:38:00 CET 1970
Tue Mar 24 10:38:00 CET 2009The result is an hour wrong!? What am I doing wrong? I suspect it's a timezone issue of some kind, but I don't understand why timezone is an issue in this case?

Resetting to Ewintok time when syncing

Every time my phone syncs with my computer, the phone resets itself to Ewintok time. How do I get this to stop? I keep having to edit time/date in the phone and then put it back on Eastern. There has to be a simple solution that I am missing. I am nearly computer illiterate, so it has to be spelled out for me. Thanks!

Hi BBrahma
It is possible that your computer is set to this timezone. Go into Desktop Manager, into synchronize and uncheck "update device's date and time" and see if that alleviates the issue. You can check the time zone on the PC by double clicking the clock in the right hand corner and going to time zones.
Cheers!

Vocals start at wrong time when recording

Hi All,
I have just started to experiment with GB. I imported a karaoke song. I plugged a mic into my Alesis mixer, which is plugged into my IMAC. It records fine, however, when I play it back, the vocals don't start to playback when they are supposed to (when I sang them). I removed the check mark from "snap to grid", so I know I can move the region but I would like to correct whatever is causing this to happen to begin with.
I hope I have provided enough information. If not, just let me know what else you need to know.
Thanks,
Gary

I followed your instructions for optimizing GB. The only thing I really needed to do was lower the number of real and midi tracks to 8, from automatic. It didn't seem to make a difference so I reboot the system.
After the reboot it seems to have cleared. Do you think it was just a resource issue?

IPod Touch shows wrong time when synched with iCal

I have a new iPod Touch and I have to say that the iCal synch doesn't work correctly. The touch is a French version and whenever i synch the iCal it changes the time into European 24-hour time. My 9 am appointments are shown as being at 21h (9pm). The time is correct on the iCal but I had to use weekly display and drag and drop it to get it that way because entering the hours numerically didn't work.
I remember too well giving up on iCal years ago for these adorable little quirks. Anybody have a solution? Thanks.

Just a follow up on this questions (which by the way no one answered). The iPod eventually corrected the time display. It happened a few hours after the first synchronization.

Photos are sorted by date modified when you sync from iTunes. If you have them arranged out of date sequence, they will not sync that way onto the iPad. You can read more here.
