DST scheduling differences between desktop and handheld

[David V. Anderson]

I just ran into this one, and fixed it in Outlook 2002 (SP3)

Here’s what worked for me: under the Tools menu>Options>Calendar
Options>Time Zone->Under “Current Time Zone”, uncheck the “Adjust for
daylight saving time” box

 

Thought I had fixed this before, and had a similar issue with Active Sync a
couple of years ago, but this one was completely within Outlook.

I think the DST shift “fix” that MS sent out re-checked that box for me.

I noticed this problem with weekly recurring appointments in Outlook 2003.
For example, a recurring appt. at 1:30 pm before March 11th becomes 2:30 pm
for the three weeks between March 11th and April 1st.

The above is Outlook on its own, without using Active Sync.

Good luck,

Hi Marcel,

 

Thanks for the tip.  I have that option checked already, but the Outlook and
Active Sync are still an hour off for three weeks between DST and PST.  I
really think it's a bug related to the late notice of our new PST. 

 

I'll go to Active Sync help and see if there's a solution.  Thanks again.

Dave,

 

I remember seeing an option in activesynch menu where you can have clocks
synchronised everytime the pda is connected with the PC. Check this out.

Pocket PC/outlook users,

 

I was recently scheduling appointments between the March 12th and last week
in March, when I found an interesting and annoying anomaly.  All of the
appointments I schedule for that period of time time on my pocket PC show up
as an hour later on my desktop computer, and vice versa.  I am assuming
because Outlook got upated to refect the new Daylight Savings schedule,
while ActiveSync didn't get the same update. 

 

I was just wondering if any of you have experienced this annoyance.  I will
probably try to upgrade ActiveSync at some point soon, and when I do, I'll
report results.
