iOS 8 Calendar on iPhone showing GMT times for new events.

Hi everyone,


Since updating my iPhone 4S to iOS 8, the Calendar app now shows all my newly added events with GMT times, and not the local time (as I am not in GMT, I am +9 hours). All my previous and existing entries are displaying normally. I have not changed any settings at all. However, if I open one of the new events and enter the events details screen, the local times are clearly displayed along with a GMT equivalent time underneath it.


I have tried changing settings but nothing shows my events in local time as it did before the upgrade to iOS 8. Any ideas? Is this a bug? Am I missing a new setting? Many thanks in advance for your help or advice.


Cheers,

James.

iPhone 4S, iOS 8

Hello,


I was having the same problem on my new computer. What I did solved my problem.


I went on settings-date & Time - Time zone tab- and then I selected the corrected time zone. ( I am in Los Angeles and the time zone was set for Chicago. My calendar was going crazy).


If you having problems on your Iphone I would go on:

settings- mail - time zone override (choose correct location) or just turn it off.


I hope it helps?
