Calendar Events 1 Hour Off

[Joey Salyer]

One of the users here is receiving her scheduled events
one hour ahead of the actual time. For instance if we
schedule a group meeting at 10am, it shows up as 11am in
her Outlook.

My first thought was different timezones, but everyone is
on the same timezone, everyone is adjusted for daylight
savings time and everyone is time synced with the server.

Anyone know of a reason why everyone would get the right
time for the event but one user would be one hour off?

Thanks in advance.

Check your time zone and daylight saving time settings in both Windows
and Outlook. Usually the problem you describe occurs when there's a
time change of some kind -- Outlook takes it upon itself to move the
appointment times. It's a little complicated to fix it, but you can use
one of the methods described in the following two MSKB articles to help
you fix it.

Nikki -

I've seen that there are a lot of similar issues posted in this
newsgroup, including one I posted a reply on 4/6/04 Subj: Outlook
Meeting Time Problem (RAM).

My issue is kind of complicated, and I'm not sure that the article on
Changing Time Zone without Changing Appt Times applies. Can you
assist?

Issue: I have a couple of executive secretaries who have complete
control over the executives' calendars. The secretaries use OL2003,
the executives have OL200 SR-1. Everyone's time zone and Daylight
Savings Time are set correctly on both the Calendar options and the
system clock.

After the time change on April 4, SOME (not all) appointments on the
secretaries' AND the executives' calendars showed up an hour ahead of
schedule. It looks like the appointments on the executives' calendars
that are incorrect are the ones that were put there DIRECTLY by the
secretaries (from their OL2003, they hook into the executives'
calendars). If these are RECURRING appointments, they show up
correctly AFTER Daylight Savings Time goes away Oct. 31.

Is this enough information for you to come up with a theory? Am I
going to have to do the Change Time Zone w/out Changing Appt Times fix
on ALL of these machines, or doesn't it apply?
