Help please! Talk about fustrating. My wife uses her iphone to organise her calendar. She has never had to look at time zone support and has so ignored it. The phone syncs to mobile me over the air.
She recently decided that she would like to have a desktop copy as well, so we set iCAl to sync with mobile me (leaving phone sync via iTunes off. to avoid complications). And this is where the time zone thing has kicked off. Mobile me and iPhone seem to think that all her events are set for Cupertino time (well, where else, given the system times in phone, web and desk are all for London, but not the calendar times, oh no...). Consequently, unless we leave all the calendars as set for the wrong time zone, the times are all 8 hours out. If I subsequently revert to Cupertino time and then switch off time zone support, the times show right, but the events are still being created in the wrong time zone. I can't find any way of amending the time zone of a whole calendar (she only uses the dafault "home" calendar) AND LEAVING THE TIMES ALONE, only single events. I've even tried syncing to iCal. switching off syncing, exporting the calendar to desktop, deleting it from iCal, adjusting the time zone in iCAl, importing the calendar back, but NO, the .ics file includes (you've guessed it) the time zone the event was created in. The simple answer is to leave the time zone set to Cupertino and switch off time zone support. But that is besides the point. Does anyone know how to adjust an entire calendar's time zone without that changing the times? Google and Apple support forums have been unhelpful....
