Changing the time zone for events

You can choose a time zone for calendar events created on or synced to your Palm OS device or iSync-compatible Motorola phone. The time zone you choose affects only where calendar events appear on your device; it doesn’t change the time zone for the Palm OS device or Motorola phone itself.

To change the time zone:

  1. Click the Palm OS device or Motorola phone icon in the iSync window.

  2. Click Set at the bottom of the window.

  3. Choose whether to use the computer’s time zone or a different time zone for events you create on your Palm or sync to your Palm. If you want to use a different time zone, click your location on the map, and then choose a city from the pop-up menu below the map.

    • If you choose the computer’s time zone, any calendar events you create on your computer or your Palm will show at the same time in both places (after your next sync).

    • If you choose a different time zone from the one your computer is using, any events you create in a calendar application, such as iCal, on your computer will be converted to the appropriate time on your Palm device or Motorola phone (after your next sync). Similarly, events created on your device will be converted to your computer’s time zone the next time you sync.
