Contact time problem

My wife's Axim is having a problem with her appointmants. Her laptop has all of the appointments in the afternoon at one time and her Axim has them 1 hour later.

I have checked the times on both devices and they are set exactly the same. The times are the same and everything. I think that it started to happen after the time change.

The title should have read appointment time problem.

All my long term appointments also have the incorrect time (off 1 hour). I am assuiming that it has to do with Day light savings time.

Even though the times are the same, make sure the time zones are, too. In the Axim, Start, Settings, System (tab), Clock = GMT-5 Eastern US.

In WinXP (and I think most other Windows versions), double click on the clock, Time Zone (tab) = (GMT-05:00) Eastern (US and Canada) and the box is checked "Automatically adjust clock..."

Ike, I was already setup that way.

What I had to do was open each of my re-occurring appointments and re save them. That corrected the time problem I guess until Day light savings time ends.

Both time zones are set exactly the same too. I will have her try to re-open each appointment and re-save them.

It's just wierd becuase mine is not doing that at all.
