Events getting pushed out; "Event and computer TZ do not match"

[Sonal.Sarda]

Hi

I recently changed Entourage time zone to PST (cupertino - USA) and the
machine's timezone to PST, tijuana.

Now every time I try to create a new event on Entourage, I see the
message : Event and computer time zone do not match" But more
importantly, an event created at 9 am in the new event window shows up
as a 10:30 PM event for the same day in the Entourager Calendar view.
Every event is getting pushed out by 13 and half hours!!

I was earlier in the Calcutta, india time zone.

Thanks!
Sonal

Do the time zones in the system preferences and the Entourage preferences
match?

And, have you re-started Entourage after changing the prefs?

Existing events will keep the time zone they were created with (but that can
be changed manually for each event). New events should eb governed by the
settings you have in the prefs _after_ you have restarted Entourage.

this was a bug resolved by one of the recent 11.2.x patches.
