active sync time problem

paula · 08-06-05, 04:12 AM

I am enjoying my new axim, I finally got my palm info into outlook and successfully was able to activesync contacts and calendar...with one problem...all of my appointments are an hour late on the axim...the times are fine on the desktop...I am sure I just need to change a setting somewhere but I am more than a little lost in this new PPC land. Thanks!

It's probably the DST setting on your PC. Make sure the box is checked for "Automatically adjust for daylight saving changes" and that both it and the PPC are in the same time zone.

Thanks,

I checked and both the PC and PPC are now set for the same time and the DST setting is checked. Now all of my appointments (recently transfered from Palm desktop) are an hour late. Any idea how to fix this without going through and doing it one by one?

Thanks!

Are the appointments wrong on both the PC and PPC? I really have no idea how that would happen apart from the time zone/DST problem I mentioned initially. If it's only wrong on one of them, there's still some problem in these settings and any attempt to change them will make them wrong on one of the two.

At this point they are wrong on both...at some point it was wrong on the ppc and correct on the PC but now it is wrong on both.

I guess I will have to change them all manually. I am new to this activesync...would it be better to make the changes on the axim or on the PC? Will one override the other...I don't want to end up with doubles an hour apart!

Thanks so much for your help.
