Calendar events times display wrong

S

Spat

In Entourage 2004 (fully updated) Calendar, events show the wrong time (and
sometimes are even displayed on the wrong date) than what was originally
entered. This is true for all views (Month, Workweek, etc.). For instance,
I may create an event to "Brush Teeth" on August 29 at 5:00 PM, but in the
month view it displays as 10:00 AM. If I double-click on the event then the
time/date will be correct in the event's window. However, sometimes when I
double-click on an event it will MOVE to a different date and time -- for no
reason. Most annoying. Is there a fix?

Either your Time Zone info in date & Time system prefs does not match the
default time zone setting in Entourage prefs or (maybe more likely from the
symptoms you describe) you are using an exchange server in a different time
zone to your computer and these effects are showing up in the exchange
calendar items.

The first is easy to fix (but you will have to restart entourage after
making the changes to get entourage to recognise them). The second,
unfortunately, needs a fix at the exchange server and who knows how long we
will have to wait for that :(
