Hi my boss and her secretary are linked so that meetings can be added etc. The time on my bosses computer is right but all meetings are off by an hour. The time on the secretary's computer is wrong but the meetings are right. They have both adjusted the time in the control panel and also have clicked the automatically adjust for daylight savings in both outlook and in windows. Has anyone every encountered this before and if so, how did you fix it?
 
I am encountering the same thing. Two of us have access to his calendar. The other person showed the appointments an hour later that my viewing of his calendar did. I realized that I had not checked the daylight savings time option. Now we both show the appointments an hour later. Help! I think it's a flaw -- how do we change it? I'm operating in XP. Didn't have that problem with 98

Same thing here. If I uncheck "automatically adjust for
daylight savings time" ... the calendar items are ok
(shared user calendar and public folder calendar) ... but
then the clock is off. If I manually change the time on
the clock, it falls back an hour each "on the hour" time.
I found something on MS site that mentioned this problem
and they said the Office XP SP2 fixes the problem. I
recently installed SP3!!!!!!!!!

We are also having this problem in our office. We thought
that it may have something to do with the recent rollout
of Office 2003, including Outlook 2003, to almost all of
our users. Then, it seemed to be that if users running
WinXP created a meeting request, only other users running
WinXP had the meeting appear in their calendars at the
correct time; the time in Win2000 users calendars was off
by an hour.
 
I seem to have resolved the issue, for some reason some
people had "Automatically adjust for daylight savings
time" Check marked and others didn't. The people that
didnt DID NOT have the wrong time either, I can't explain
it. So thats why everyones Calendar was out of sync with
each others, I had to go around to all the stations and
make sure that Auto Adjust was checked for everyone so
everyone was in sync time wise with one another. Hope this
helps guys...
 
It seems i've jumped the gun, cause now this morning the
people that had no issues yesterday with the calendar now
are having issues with it. I don't understand what is
happening. So to remedy this I had them uncheck auto
adjust and set thier time to the right time and the
calendar appointments went back to thier proper times. Its
a temp solution until MS addresses.
 
We are running Exchange 5.5 in a Windows 2003 AD
environment with an Exchange 2003 server in the Exchange
5.5 site. Over 98% of our mailboxes and all of our public
folders are still on the 5.5 server.

Yesterday, I sent an e-mail to all of our 400+ users and
asked them to make sure the DST adjustment was turned on
for their PCs and their Outlook calendars. I also asked
them to reboot their computers because most of them had
not been rebooted since prior to the DST change. I can't
confirm what effect these two things had on the situation,
but we seem to have fewer time discrepancies today.
However, I don't consider the case closed.
