| Calendar offset error HTC Touch Dual running WM6. No recent changes to device since most recent August fix for DST. Workstation running Outlook 2003 on XP. Been running like a Swiss watch. Since DST came in I have noticed the following on the device calendar: - time based appointments show as one hour prior to the values set in Outlook - all day appointments show as one day prior to the values set in Outlook If I re-run the August 2009 fix for DST it is temporarily repaired. Once I synch, the problem resumes. -- David |

| Re: Calendar offset error Assuming the device and the PC running Outlook are properly patched, a possible culprit is your mobile operator, who sets the time on the device via the network. Its possible that your operator is sending the wrong time zone, but the correct time to the device, resulting in the one hour offset. (Many operators bungle DST!) Windows Mobile phones sync the time to the PC's clock when cradled, so this might explain why everything is normal after you sync, until the operator overrides the phone's time settings again after you've been disconnected from the PC for a while. Check the device's clock settings and see if the zone is correct (meaning the same as your PC's zone.) If it doesn't match, turn off the automatic time setting on the phone (usually at Start/Settings/Phone and it'll be the last or one of the last tabs at the bottom) then sync the device to the PC to reset the correct time and zone (or reset it manually.) Good luck!

| Re: Calendar offset error Since you're running the older Outlook 2003 and XP, you may have to apply more than one DST patch. I applied three, one for WM, another for Outlook and the third for XP. Recent XP updates may have already fixed the XP issue, and I believe Outlook 2007 already has the required patch. It won't hurt to download and try to install all three, since it will tell you it's uneccessary if it's already patched. Check out this link, download and install the patches, in the specific order it tells you to: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...ctosynchronize For Windows Mobile users who connect to a PC: --------------------------------------------- (STEP 1 - XP:) First make sure your PC is up to date (see http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cp_dst for more details) Note: Make sure you update all PCs that you may use to connect to your Windows Mobile device.

[Look for WindowsXP-KB955839-x86-ENU.exe] To verify that it is installed, you can visit Windows Update and make sure that all High Priority items are installed. --For all products not currently in mainstream support, see KB914387 [or KB955839, more recent] for steps on manually updating your PC. ================ (STEP 2 - OUTLOOK:) If you use Microsoft Outlook to synchronize your calendar, download and run the Outlook Time Zone Update Tool. [Look for OutlookTimeZoneMove.exe] If you do not use Microsoft Outlook, go to Step 4. ================ (STEP 3 - ACTIVESYNC/WMDC:) Check to make sure you have the latest version of ActiveSync [v4.5] or Windows Mobile Device Center [v6.1]. ================ (STEP 4 - POCKET PC:) Connect your Windows Mobile device to your PC, and then download and run the Daylight Saving Time Update Tool for Windows Mobile. --[DST_Mar2008windowsmobile-kb949168.cab] for PPC install or --[DST_Mar2008windowsmobile-kb949168.msi] for desktop installer "David Olsen" <david.powerbits@nogmailspam.com> wrote in message news:<eFcc$PuSKHA.4020@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl>... > HTC Touch Dual running WM6. > No recent changes to device since most recent August fix for DST. > Workstation running Outlook 2003 on XP. > Been running like a Swiss watch. > > Since DST came in I have noticed the following on the device calendar: > - time based appointments show as one hour prior to the values set in > Outlook > - all day appointments show as one day prior to the values set in Outlook > > If I re-run the August 2009 fix for DST it is temporarily repaired. > > Once I synch, the problem resumes. > > > -- > > David > > > > |
