The Time Zone problem just got worse.

[Loren Finkelstein]

For some reason, the time zones on most of my calendar items got changed
to Casablanca, Monrovia.

On those items, I no longer get the banner message about the Event and
Computer Time Zones not matching, but now, when accessed from any system
other than Entourage, everything is off by several hours.

I am on an Exchange server. From my PC in Outlook, and from my
Blackberry, everyone's birthday is now a 24 hour appointment that starts
a day early at 8PM.

Needless to say, that really messes up my blackberry.

I tried changing 1 birthday to Eastern TIme (on my Entourage) and it
that fixed it across the board in my other systems.

But I have thousands of items in my calendar. I can't manually change
them all.

Help!!!


Incidentally, before you ask, my Mac's time zone is set for New York
(EDT) which is correct for where I am and Entourage has Eastern Time as
my default time zone as well.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Do you have Sync Services enabled with iCal? If so, is time-zone support
enabled in iCal (Preferences:Advanced)?

When you create new events in Entourage, what time zone do they appear in?

Is your Exchange server in a different timezone than your computer?

Yes Sync Services is enabled with iCal.
No. Time zone support is not on in iCal. Should it be?

When you create new events in Entourage, what time zone do they appear in?
Eastern.

Nope. Eastern.

Thanks,
