Outlook Calendar Sync Timing Problem

[BrianB803]

When I sync my outlook calander with my iPhone, all my appointments become GMT instead of CST. For example and appointment at 9am on my outlook is coming out as 2pm on my iPhone. Does anyone have any ideas on how I might rectify this? Thanks and have a great day.

PS: I am on outlook 2003. The problem also works both ways. If I make an appointment for 11pm on my iphone, it comes out as 6pm on outlook. Thanks.

I have the same problem!! It's SO annoying. Did you find out how to solve this?

And every time I open Outlook 2007, I now get this error:

"There was a problem reading one or more of your reminders. some reminders may not appear"

I suspect the iPhone sync has done this. Now none of my calendar items fire off a reminder!!

okay found the solution to both of my problems. The timing issue was solved by setting my Phone's Date and Time to Manaul, and turning off Time Zone Support. Either one may have solved this... I'm guessing Time Zone Support is the culprit here.

The Outlook issue was solved by following a few steps from here:
