Calender Displays Wrong Time for Some of Reoccuring Appointment
 
I have a series of reoccurring events (classes to be exact) in my calender and for some odd reason once they hit the tenth repeat the display as an hour earlier than they actually are. (1-3:30pm reads noon-2:30pm and 4:30-7:20pm reads 3:30-6:20pm). When I click into the appointment it is indeed listed as the correct time & what is truly odd is that for the first nine weeks it displays as the correct time for me.

Anyone have suggestions on what might be causing this? I rely heavily on my phone's calender function to be accurate so this is going to be a product killer for me if I cannot get it fixed.

For the time being I am going to try removing and re-adding the appoint and see if that resolves the issue.

EDIT: Also - I did update my timezone after I had set these dates in my calender (it had been in correctly auto detected as -5 when I am in -6) so maybe this caused the issue? Still odd that it only affected the last six entries and not all of them for the appointment.

I have an appointment in my calender that is reccuring over 15 weeks in my calender, is dispayed correctly every time for me.

Maybe as you said was a timezone issue ... matches up with the 1 hour difference you stated (-5 vs -6 = 1 hour difference).

I loaded my calendar by bluetooth sync to my old Nokia symbian, and many times were an hour off. This also resulted in "all-day" items being now shown as all-of-TWO-days. We have no DST here, and I do not see how it would be a time-zone issue.

(really should be date-only, no time, so not affected by time zones.)

Created an appointment on the n900 calendar for a date in May after DST begins (March 14). When I PC Suite sync it to Outlook, it goes in an hour later. If I do the reverse and set it in Outlook, and then PC Suite sync it to the n900, I get an hour earlier.

Seems to be a DSTish bug. Anyone else can reproduce this or know the fix?

I do have the same problem. When Nokia PC Suite syncs my Outlook agenda with N900 all my appointments goes one hour earlier. All my device and pc settings apparently are ok,

I am using Nokia PC Suite version 7.1.40.1.

Confidence is critical when we are talking about something that will handle your appointments.

Any help will be very welcome.

When I remove any recurrence on and after the DST change date, all is good. N900/PC-Suite can't handle DST changes within a recurrimg event.


All times are GMT. The time now is 06:48.
