restore changed appointments timing? - General Topics

Hi there,
I've restored appointments from Outlook onto my Dopod900. Thing is, the timing of them all has been advanced by 7 hours. So, all day appointments now span over 2 days from 7am to 7am. How can I fix this?
thanks, philg

Are you sure you've setup the time-zone correct?
M

Not sure. Something has got screwed up along the way. Any idea of a fix- either on my pc or pda?
Thanks. philg

Are both your PC & PPC now 7 hours advanced?
M

No. They both have the same time and timezone. Problem lies with a restore of my PIM databases to Outlook (ref my other thread). The Outlook archive of my PIM data was done on a machine with a 7 hour time difference compared to mine.
I think I will need to restore the Outlook archive on my desktop after setting the time and timezone to be GMT+1. Then sync to my pcc which is set at GMT+8... Will give it a go.
Regards,
philg

Activesync only updating 100 appointments

Hi, I need some assistance with an activesync issue. My PIM.VOL file got too large. I deleted it. Archived some of my appointments on my PC and now when I try to re-sync the data, activesync appears to only add 100 of my old appointments with each sync connection. The problem is that I have over 1,500. How do I force a full re-sync of the whole calendar file?
I know this is a pretty 'old' topic..
But I ran into the same issue this week.
Anybody know how to resolve this???
This looks like something similar to what I went through. I was trying to sync my Outlook 2007 Contacts, Appointments, etc., from Windows Vista, to my ATT Tilt and it was only copying (about) 50% of the data to the phone. On a whim I decided to see if my PST needed a repair. So, I ran SCANPST.EXE, it detected and proceeded to fix errors, and all my contacts seem to be on the phone now.
Unfortunately (?) I don't sync with my Outlook, but with Exchange 2007 SP1 directly over wlan...
It syncs exactly 100 appointments, waits for about ten minutes, asks for my login credentials and does another 100. And keeps on doing that until it's finished (I guess), I've not waited/tried till it said 'finished'...

Why not wait until it finishes to see if you're, at least, copying them all over? If not, then it's plan B...
Tried that yesterday.... Started at 7pm and quit at 1am.... At that point it was (maybe) 60% done... That was late enough for me...
The problem seems to be solved now....
Somehow the setup of Exchange entered the fqdn of the server in the internal address for ActiveSync instead of the url my exchange is on...
If it is solved I will post it here within a day...
Later that day....
No issues, popups etc so far.. Also changed the syncing period to 6 months instead of 'All'... Maybe that helped too....
Glad to hear that you're up and running. I know that when I was having the problem, I was pulling what hair I have left, out.

Time difference between outlook and pda when using Emoze

I have installed emoze on my desktop and mobile device.
Everything works fine, however the appointments in Outlook does not have the same time as on the mobile device!!
When I make an appointment in Outlook, the same appointment appears in my device directly but the starttime on the the device is 1 hour earlier.
When I make an appointment on the device, the same appointment appears in Outlook but then 1 hour later.
The time on the desktop and device is the same.
How to solve this??

I too having the same problem, and have been searching for solution. I hate to manually change the time on my mobile phone. So any solution would be great!
Changing the time on my device doesnt work because Emoze changes the time directly also in Outlook, but again with an hour difference....

Time is always WRONG and there is no DST in Brisbane..

Hi all, I got my Touch Pro few days ago, and one thing that bothers me alot is the time is WRONG!
I've set the timezone on my phone as GMT+10 Brisbane where there is no daylight saving apply. However, as soon as I connect the phone to my computer, it automaticlly +1 Hour, It is now displaying GMT+11 time, even if there is DST, it should be GMT+9 rather than GMT+11. Appointments that sync from PC to WM are all +1 hour too, IE if i keep using the wrong time, I'll still be right with appointments... WTF... eg. Current time is 10 and flight is 12, my phone actually displays as Current time is 11 and flight is 1pm! ROFL.
I've tried to install WMDST2008-1.CAB and update my outlook with Outlook Timezone Move.exe and still no sucess on the issue.
Can any one help?
Go into ActiveSync, Tools | Options.
Highlight your PC sync name, click Settings, then untick to sync date and time

Birthday issue (1 day shifted)

Hello everybody,
I have an issue with my HTC Diamond and my contact's birthday date!
On MS Outlook 2003 (french release), birthday is ok (ie : 20 Oct. 79).
On the Diamond, it appears to be shifted 1 day in the past (ie : 19 OCt. 79)
Both PC & PDA are on the same time fuse (GMT+1 Paris), the date is the same, and the time is also the same !
I'm lost and it's driving me crazy... I already saved my contacts on the PC, then delete all of them in Outlook, the sync, and delete the sync parameters in PDA & PC, and import them back, but still not working.
Does someone already had the same problem ?
Regards
Sync time is decided by outlook's time preferences, not by the default cpu clock.
try to change the calendar's time to meet your requirements.
I already checked, and outlook calendar time is matching with both PC and PDA's.
So it seems the problem is not there
Might be a "daylight saving time" setting, not sure where to change it though...
edit; oops, thats only an hour difference, not a day, sorry
a workaround for this can be..
1. open outlook
2. go to tools/options/calendar options/time zone/change calendar time zone
3. change the time zone to fit the delay
this should change all your appointments..
but maybe you should go thru all calendar options over there to see you didn't miss anything

Appointments shifted up an hour after Daylight Savings

I was checking my appointments after this weekend, and noticed that they were all shifted up an hour. This includes reoccurring ones. I have an AT&T Fuze. Is there a way to fix this? Do I need to fix this, or will it correct itself once the time changes this weekend?
Thanks
Your appointments adjust with your clock so that if you are traveling into different time zones so that everything will still "occur" at the same time.
Ok, outlook calendar syncs appointments according to the outlook settings and not the PC's clock settings
go to outlook's calendar options and to the timezone options and try changing them to fit your needs.
i was under the impression it only shifted the appointment times if the clock was set on the "visiting" zone, it shouldnt alter the time of appointments if time zone is set to "home".......
I have the same problem. As soon as DST hit (which was yesterday) and my phone adjusted for DST, all my appointments moved forward by one hour. How do we fix it?? I would love to know. Thanks!
I had the problem with appointments shifting one hour forward after the Daylight Saving Time took place yesterday. I am using the Outlook at home and Groupwise in the office. After I sync FUZE with the Groupwise through PortaMail, all appointments are back to the originally scheduled times. I believe that this should work when syncing with the Outlook as well.
I thought you meant it was a syncing problem.
it only happens when timezones are changed?
So what if I use a mac lol? Am I just screwed?
