Daylight Saving Time problem...I think.

Hi, I upgraded to vista ultimate over a month ago. Everything has been synching fine with the Outlook 2007 and my T-mobile Dash. Two week ago I also installed the Daylight Savings Time patches that microsoft recommended (both for outlook and WM5). Everything was working fine, my calendar continuing to sync perfectly with my Dash. I then went on a trip to the west coast (time zone change) and came back to NY yesterday (time zone change again). However as soon as I started adding new entries in my outlook calendar and then syncing with my phone all the sudden the new appointments appear on my Dash as being one hour earlier than what's showing on my outlook.

For instance, if I add an entry at 10pm in Outlook, it will show up as a 9pm appointment on my Dash. This problem only happens in one direction though, when I make a new entry on my Dash, it shows up at the correct time in Outlook.

I've tried uninstalling all the DST patches on Vista, and WM, and reinstalling them but to no avail. I've tried changing my time zones on my computer and on my Dash, but it still doesnt fix it. I've even did a clear storage on my Dash and reinstall of the OS, still doesnt fix it. The problem just doesnt seem to go away. Can someone help?

Interesting.

What settings do you have in place on Activesync (e.g. "If there is a conflict, etc)?
You could also try unchecking the sync time and date option or visa-versa; depending on your initial setting.

Otherwise, I would check with MS.

Good Luck.

I am having the very same problems using the very same software and updates. I have also uninstalled and reinstall all updates without success of correcting the problem.
