Wrong Timezone

My MacBook Pro thinks it is in Paris (I'm actually in the US) and set my timezone to Central European Time. My Mom's iPad was doing the exact same thing. How do I fix this?

I found that even though the correct time and time zone where set on my iPhone, it depended on what my iTunes account time zone was set to. I had relocated country recently, and because I had to open a new iTunes account in my new country of residence, my iPhone alarms and calendar reminders would pop up depending on what iTunes account I happened to be singed in with. So I closed my old iTunes account, and thus elimiated the problem of accidentally singing in with my old itunes account that was set to a different time zone. So all in all, maybe check and see what time zone your iTunes account is set to.

Auction Outbid Notices specify wrong timezone

Hello,
We have set our server time to UTC.
We also set following two system properties and restarted Java server:
system.default.timezone=UTC
system.master_timezone=UTC
However we are still getting Auction Outbid Notices which specify wrong timezone i.e. PKT. How should we resolve this problem ? Please check sample Notice that we are getting shown below.

Suppliers default time zone is set to GMT+8
I checked companies i.e. Setup --> Organization and Accounting Information --> Companies. Navigate doen to the other info section and
that is set to GMT-5 (i.e US EST)
But why outbid notice is getting PKT (i.e GMT+5) ??
Just FYI we are using Sourcing 7.0 SP2.

Installed 11g on server with wrong timezone

Don't know if anyone has had this happen to them or not but I installed oracle 11.1.0.7 on a windows 2008 server. Just got everything loaded and patched. I was about to test a rman recovery when I noticed the windows server was set to the wrong timezone. I fixed the timezone on the server but not sure how to fix it on the database. At the least it seems like I would have to drop the dbconsole repository and recreate it.
Has anyone every had to change the timezone on their Oracle database?
Thanks for taking my questions!
Kathie

The complete answer is to boot database, dropped the dbconsole repository and recreated it. This cleans up you job schedule and resets everything to the correct time.
Thanks!

Entourage reports wrong timezone

Hi, anyone out there having a mismatch between the timezone indicated on the invitation to a meeting and the timezone of the machine entering the invitation? we use outlook 2003 and exchange server at work. i learned how to use entourage to access my server using owa on my mac. all the calendar entries are captured, but the timezone of the originating meeting invitation is GMT while the originator (and I) are on CET. It shows fine on my WINPC running outlook, but not on my mac at home. Our mail server is in the UK so maybe entourage is picking up the wrong time? ideas anyone?
thanks,

I would like SYSDATE to return the correct value for my timezone of EST.
The doc says "SYSDATE returns the current date and time set for the operating system on which the database resides." So I am guessing somehow when Oracle starts it still thinks it is in CST zone.problem must be fixed at OS level

Wrong timezone when importing invitation ics from Lotus Notes

Dear all,
I have the problem that the timezone is not correctly detected when importing invitations from Lotus Notes (PRODID:-//Lotus Development Corporation//NONSGML Notes 8.5.2//EN_C) The event is one hour too late, I cal thinks it is "standard time" and not "daylight saving time"
This is the Timezone difinition in the ics file:
BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
TZID:W. Europe
BEGIN:STANDARD
DTSTART:19501029T020000
TZOFFSETFROM:+0200
TZOFFSETTO:+0100
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMINUTE=0;BYHOUR=2;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=10
END:STANDARD
BEGIN:DAYLIGHT
DTSTART:19500326T020000
TZOFFSETFROM:+0100
TZOFFSETTO:+0200
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMINUTE=0;BYHOUR=2;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=3
END:DAYLIGHT
END:VTIMEZONE
BEGIN:VEVENT
When I change it to this definition:
BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
TZID:W. Europe
BEGIN:STANDARD
DTSTART:16010101T030000
TZOFFSETFROM:+0200
TZOFFSETTO:+0100
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=10

TZOFFSETFROM:+0100
TZOFFSETTO:+0200
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=3
END:DAYLIGHT
END:VTIMEZONE
the event is correctly scheduled. Now the timezone is daylight saving time. Any hints on what is going wrong?
Thanks for your help!

My suggestion is to open a bug report with Apple if you can demonstrate that this always occurs. And, provide sample file (as you have above). https://bugreport.apple.com
As a work around I have let my customers know that the Calendar app in iOS appears to work fine and to attempt to accept event invitations through that rather than through Calendar app in OS X.
I also hope to create a simple script, droplet or automator workflow that could filter the timezones into Apple Calendar app friendly names. But, so much to do...

Evolution-2.8 Displaying wrong Timezone

Hi all,
I've been seeing some weirdness with evolution-2.8 and timezones since the change on Sunday (EST to EDT). I'm running against an exchange server for my calendar and mail.
My system date is shows the correct timezone as EDT. Evolution, however, does not seem to acknowledge the timezone change and shows its time wrong (red line in calendar is one hour behind). Appointments are getting messed up with this as well.
Has anyone seen a patch or know of a fix for this? My system is current to today.
Thanks
Norm

Update -- this is from the Evolution mailing list:
Heya,
Evolution uses it's opwn time zone data. Update Evolution package ,
restart and check again.

LR4 save to xmp has the wrong timezone adjustment for xmp:MetadataDate

After installing LR4 and converting a catalogue, I saved the metadata for an image in LR4 and did the same for the same image in LR3.6 (on a different machine).
The value for xmp:MetadataDate written by LR4 seems to be wrong. My timezone is UTC+8h for Western Australia. Here is an extract from the xmp file written by LR4:
   xmp:CreatorTool="Ver.1.00"
   xmp:ModifyDate="2012-03-03T18:10:27.00"
   xmp:CreateDate="2012-03-03T18:10:27.00"
   xmp:MetadataDate="2012-03-09T08:03:17+08:00"
Note the MetadataDate is my local time + 8h (I saved just after 8am). The timezone offset should be -8h.
On my laptop, I repeated this with LR3.6 and the ame extract from the xmp file it wrote is:
   xmp:CreatorTool="Ver.1.00"
   xmp:ModifyDate="2012-03-09T08:54:51.475-08:00"
   xmp:CreateDate="2012-03-03T18:10:27.00"
   xmp:MetadataDate="2012-03-09T08:54:51.475-08:00"
LR3.6 adjusts both the ModifyDate and the MetadataDate by -8h, which is correct if the time is meant to be UTC.
Why LR3.6 has changed the ModifyDate to the time that the xmp file was written, I'm not sure - LR$ doesn't and I wouldn't expect it to either since the raw file (NEF in my case) isn't modified.
Looks like a bug in LR4 regarding the MetadataDate written to the xmp file.

I'm confused -- you say "my timezone is UTC+8h for Western Australia". That is, if it's 13:00 local time in London, it is 21:00 local time in Western Australia.
Thus, 08:00 local time in Western Australia should appear in the XMP timestamp as 08:00:00+08:00. (That's how the timestamps are defined.) So it sure seems to me that LR 4 is doing the right thing.
LR 3.5 had a bug in which the signs in the XMP:MetadataData fields got reversed:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/xmp_metadatadate_has_wrong_time_zone
Though LR 3.6 claimed to have fixed that bug, I didn't verify, and I don't see anyone else who verified.

OMS 12c wrong timezone

Cloud Control 12.1.0.2.0 for Linux x64 show wrong UTC offset for time Zone (Moskow, Minsk, Kiev) in drop down lists.
Metalink note 1379297.1 and Patch:7457892 correct only Caracas.
Does anyone know where to find the correct library $MW_HOME/oracle_common/modules/oracle.nlsrtl_11.1.0/orai18n-translation.jar ?

Try to set "TZ" OS variable for your timezone for the user who own OEM12c installation and restart OMS.

SharePoint 2010 Present Wrong Timezone for External List of External Content Type

External content is hosted on an independent SQL server DB from the SharePoint server. External content lists shows datetime fields 5 hours earlier as opposed to Eastern standard time but Web parts display data correctly.
Yes, timezones on both servers are correct. Timezones settings in SharePoint have been checked and all appear correct. There are several places for settings. Is there a checklist in case something was missed. Our SharePoint administrator has
looked for the cause and cannot determine.
I poured through other blogs and issues with external content and timezone on this site including "External Content Type Saving Dates in UTC".
Please provide a list for timezone settings such as global settings for a site, collection, external content, SharePoint 2010 designer settings, Central Administration settings, etc.

Hi Benjamin,
Please test the following approach for your issue, exporting the BDC Metadata Model from SharePoint Designer and change the normalization to use local time, and let us know the results.

Web calender 10.8 wrong timezone

Does anybody know how You get the right timezone in the web calender (os x 10.8 server) I manually change it to GMT+1. If I log off and the login it still has the changed timezone, but it seems if I remove cookies the timezone revert to old settings... I thouhgt this was saved on the server I am acceessing it is very irritating....I know this was a problem in lion.
If You have any ideas pls let me know
/JF

Better I might missunderstand You but the problem is not from the Icloud.com side but from the web calender mountain lion server, where You have the possibility to add timezone/start of week and so on... I don't think that these applications are connected or am i wrong ??

Wrong timezone settings for Perth, Western Austral...

I have seen in multiple places that Perth is configured as GMT+9. This is WRONG. It should be GMT+8 and is causing havoc with my sync, calendar, etc.

It is a known issue and has been fixed in some software, in the mean time why not go to clock settings and set the time to automatic update, that way it will sync with the network time so if you fly to a different time zone your clock will be updated automatically.As i don't know what model you have it might be a different setting in your handset.

Date Picker shows displays wrong timezone after Apex 2.2 upgrade

After upgrading from 2.0 to 2.2, all date pickers in all applications now display the time in GMT instead of GMT - 7.
For example: before upgrade 08/03/2006 9:00 -- after upgrade 08/03/2006 16:00.
The date and time on the server is set to GMT - 7. The database displays GMT - 7 in all other non-Apex apps.
I suspect there's a global preference that needs resetting, but I can't find it.
Cheers,
Jaime

Hi Jaime,
What you are witnessing is a feature and not a bug. Shame on us for not making this change in behavior more prominent. But this feature ultimately emanated from the posting at:
Re: Date Picker and timzone
In Application Express 2.2, if you are using a DatePicker, the current date and time will be computed based upon LOCALTIMESTAMP. LOCALTIMESTAMP is time zone aware. By default, it will use the database's time zone.
To control the user's time zone setting in your application, you could add a before-header application-level process (and, ultimately, another one on Submit) to issue a PL/SQL statement like:
execute immediate 'alter session set time_zone = ''America/New_York'' ';Note:
1) Those are sets of two single-quotes around America/New_York, not double-quotes
2) Obviously, you'd replace America/New_York with your favorite time zone. The full list is at:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/applocaledata.htm#sthref2012
As a quick demonstration, run the following block in SQL Commands on apex.oracle.com or your favorite APEX instance:
begin
    dbms_output.put_line( 'LocalTimestamp Before: ' || localtimestamp );
    execute immediate 'alter session set time_zone = ''America/New_York'' ';
    dbms_output.put_line( 'LocalTimestamp After: ' || localtimestamp );
end;
/I hope this helps.

E71-2 suddenly wrong timezone

Hi,
I have my E71-2 for a couple of weeks and I really like the phone (upgraded from the first generation iPhone).
I am using Canadian GSM operator (Fido).
Suddenly on last Saturday I noticed that my time was off by 6 hrs?!?! The phone was set to use operator time....
It seems like the time is fine just off by 6hrs... My other devices are working fine with the same operator etc.. Also, I asked around and other Nokia phones are also fine (although not E71 specifically). I have not been traveling with this phone at all...
I installed some new Themes lately, but it was working fine after that...
This is driving me crazy
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Wojtek
PS: I am running the original firmware, as I can not get it for the e71-2 yet?!

this probably is a case of a bug in ur device so what u can try are:
U can go in for a hard reset which will turn ur device as it left the factory totally new and since u have no issue with the backup i think it wud probably do the trick
'*' '3' 'Call Key' and Power button all pressed at the same time after u have removed ur phone battery for at least 5 mins.
U can also update/reinstall ur firmware and see the result
In case of ur memory card there are different options available to you to get rid of the corrupt/unwanted data in your card.
menu--installations--application manager--remove the unwanted application....... in ur case internet tel
menu--tools--memory---options---format memory card......
remember everything including ur factory installed apps will be deleted......... but u can always download them later either from nokia or google them...
or insert ur card in any reader or laptop and check for virus and also the hidden folders....... if there is something left of the application then u will find it in the hidden folders and delete it.......
the last option is to take it to ur care point and ask them to do the needful

TimeZone.getDefault is wrong if the System TimeZone is set to Rangoon

Hi,
Once the System TimeZone is set to Rangoon i.e (+6:30), TimeZone.getDefault returns a wrong timezone and corresponding timezone offset.
The code snippet with its output is given below.
Code is as below:
System.out.println("The default TimeZone is "+TimeZone.getDefault());
System.out.println("The TimeZoneOffset is "+(TimeZone.getDefault().getRawOffset())/(1000*60)+" minutes");
System.out.println(System.getProperty("user.timezone"));
Output:
The default TimeZone is java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=Asia/Calcutta,offset=19800000,dstSavings=3600000,useDaylight=false,startYear=0,startMode=0,startMonth=0,startDay=0,startDayOfWeek=0,startTime=0,startTimeMode=0,endMode=0,endMonth=0,endDay=0,endDayOfWeek=0,endTime=0,endTimeMode=0]
The TimeZoneOffset is 330 minutes
Asia/Calcutta.
It would be great if somebody knows what exactly is going wrong. Pls help
Thank You

It looks like a bug in Java that was fixed in 1.4 sometime.
I tried your test using Windows XP and Java 1.4.2. I selected "Rangoon (+6:30)" as my time zone on the Windows Date and Time properties.
The output I got was:
The default TimeZone is sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo[id="Asia/Rangoon",offset=2340
0000,dstSavings=0,useDaylight=false,transitions=5,lastRule=null]
The TimeZoneOffset is 390 minutes
Asia/RangoonI tried with JDK 1.3.1_09 and found it to behave erroneously (interpreted time zone as Asia/Calcutta).

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.
