World Clock Question

Question

World Clock Question

One more silly question...Has anyone found a way to enter their desired destination in to World Clock, when the location is originally not recognized by the application?

Example: I tried to enter "Bologna, Italy" and "Rincon, Puerto Rico" in World Clock but couldn't because, I assume, neither place was recognized within the program? Had to settle for Rome and San Juan (even though I'm not sure if the time is actually the same in Rincon and San Juan, as well as in Bologna and Rome)...make sense?

Thanks!

The World Clock only has major cities. You have to select a city in the same time zone.

OK, guess it's time to pull out my map! (I suppose I could use a refresher on geography)

Thanks!

allthingsapple,

All of Italy is in CET (Central European Time) which is GMT+1, but during Summer months is GMT+2.

Puerto Rico has one time zone and is in AST (Atlantic Standard Time) time which is GMT -4, and does not use Summer or Daylight savings time.

You didn't mention what time zone you are in. The U.S. Timezones are EST which is GMT -5 (-4 during EDT (Eastern Daylight Time), CST is GMT -6 (CDT is -5), MST is -7 (MDT -6), and PST is GMT -8 (PDT is -7).

Hope this helps,

Nathan C.

San Juan, Puerto Rico is recognized as a major city. I am from Mayaguez, Puerto Rico and the time difference between the two cities is 5 MIN, so San Juan it is!!!!

Try that!!!
