I had this problem in one of my machines, tried Andys fix but didn’t work for me. Luckly had another machine that was OK, so I started coping the Notes program and data directories from the good one to the bad one with no luck. Finally discovered that was a problem in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones registry. Exported the registry from the good one, deleted and imported to the bad one and problem fixed. Don’t know why but it was fixed.

UK customer called today, they were trying to book Rooms in advance, and the times were an hour out so they could not book from 09h00 - 10h00.

Haven't had a chance to do any investigating yet so could be anything at the moment, but wonder now if they are related.

One to watch.

I am uncertain what your exact usage scenario was when you experienced this, but I reported an N8 bug that occurs with the calendar when the underlying OS timezone changes and Notes is open. Doing so will cause events to appear off and holidays to show-up one day earlier.

Closing Notes --- completely (re-start box if one thinks their might programs still in memory --- then re-launch Notes, will fix the non-holiday entries.

If Notes was closed when the timezone changed, then that is a different scenario.

Glad you got it fixed.
