iTunes 9.1 BIG problem

Hi, today's update perfectly until I found out that the dates in may calendar are all shifted by ONE day. This is uncanny, how the heck can this happen?
I’m on PC, Outlook etc. Contacts are ok btw.
Yes I rebooted, re-sync’ed and even selected “the” one calendar I have and also selected to overwrite the iPhone calendar which BTW I deleted manually in a painstaking job, I’m out of ideas.
Any light bulbs over you head?

Yes well, this is a semi-public forum so I am careful with my choice of words, but if you read my mind you'd find out I'm less than impressed so to speak.

Ok here is a work around:
All you have to do is sync the Outlook calendar with Google calendar and then push both mail and calendars from your Google account.

I understand that it only works for those users that actually “have” a Goggle account, nevertheless it worked pretty well for me and I hope someone else can benefit from it.

The Google solution may be tedious, as you say, but you only have to perform it once because every time you add or change something in your Outlook calendar it will sync to Google Calendar and will be immediately reflected in your iPhone.
I grant you it's elaborate and I also prefer the straightforward Outlook-iPhone sync but hey, until Apple looks into this seriously there's not much we can do about it. Fingers crossed they will address this issue sooner rather than later.

I might be proved wrong but i think this problem is particularly acute with events marked 'all day'.

Didn't mean to rubbish your google solution because it is very creative. However this problem only began after installing the latest 9.1 itunes. it all worked fine before.

why aren't more people seeing this issue?

You are right, it affects, mostly, all-day events and recurring events and you don't have to worry about "hurting my feelings" at all, first of all I agree it's a scrappy solution albeit the only one, secondly I too hope Apple will come up with an update and finally I also agree that it is strange so few people are complaining. Are they shy? 🙂
Take care

Or they don't have it - remember this forum is the equivalent of a hospital for iPhones. People come here when their iPhone is ill and so by definition it means its full of the unhealthy. That doesn't mean that the entire population are having the problem.

Yes and no because the problem also affects all the holidays, so you'd have to untick both occurrences, it's not a big deal I grant you that, still I do prefer my method which leaves every appointment untouched. The real problem,though,is to understand whether Apple is aware of this issue and more importantly are they doing anything to fix it?

Not unless you tell them using your Applecare number or feedback here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

and more importantly are they doing anything to fix it?


only Apple knows although they do occasionally respond to the above with a Big Number if you report one.
