iPhone - iCal oddity

Postby Pastor Gary » January 20th, 2009, 11:10 am

Any of you Mac users who maintain your schedule with the iCal app and sync to your iPhone for travel...

There's either an oddity in the software, or an operator malfunction on my part.

Example:
I am traveling in February to the Philippines. I have my itinerary in hand. I would love to drop all my flights, meetings, and details into blocks on my calendar, sync them to my iPhone, and not have to lug around additional paper schedules.

I am in the HST time zone (Hawaii Standard Time). That is GMT -10.
Manila is in PST (Philippine Standard Time). That is GMT +8. The difference is that Manila is 18 hours AHEAD of my current location... it is Wednesday morning there right now as I post.

SO... (are you with me?) -- I want to enter my flight from Honolulu to Manila, but the departure time is in HST and the arrival time is in PST. Then I catch a second flight from Manila to Davao, which both departs and arrives in PST...

I have tried entering things that jump time zones before, but when I travel, and set my iPhone to the new time zone, the appointments all shift around and jump times.

you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)
