Daylight Savings Time
[178 byte] By [No Limit] at [2007-11-9 15:12:16] 
I thought my iPod would automatically adjust its time since it is the end of daylight savings time, but I had to manually do it. Is it just me or did this happen to anybody else?

Wow, do other countries have daylight savings? I thought it was only in Australia, then again I never made the effort to find out....I don't think it would adjust, but I haven't got one yet so I don't know. I have heard of the clock syncing when you connect it to your computer, but again I'm not sure.

Well, I thought about the same thing, went to look at my times zones on the iPod and there are two "US Pacifics". One "US Pacific" and one "US Pacific (DST)". I had mine time zone set to US Pacific. So I changed it to USP (DST) and I'll see in Spring if it changes automatically. :DAdam

Yeah I had to figure this out as well I am in Australia and on teh ipdo there is "Brisbane" and "Brisbane (DST)" so you have to switch between. But the funny thing is that in QLD Queensland where Brisbane is the capital of that state QLD does not have day light savings time in Australia what is the go apple people!!!!! You would think that they would have Sydney in there as it ia on the eastern seaboard at 10+ hours GMT... Apple might want to change that.. just a heads up.Fundex at 2007-11-15 17:07:37 >

Having it set to "US Eastern (DST)", or "Your Zone (DST)", doesn't cause iPod to automatically change your time. I think it is just there to provide you with another way to change the clock for Daylight Savings. Instead of directly changing the time, you just switch Time Zones. When you select DST, it bumps the clock up an hour. When you switch back to non-DST, it sets it back an hour.Macavity at 2007-11-15 17:08:35 >

I didn't have to change the clock at all - apparently while updating via my iBook, it was automatically changed.Great, huh! My iPod seems to be really smart ;-)
I DID forget though to change the clock on my cell phone and I ended getting up for work today at 5 a.m. instead of 6!!!
:-(

Yes, Alicia...rub it in. ;) MiPods get updated by the Mac. Windows users are still cheated out by not having that feature.Ah well, guess I need to buy a Mac so my iPod clock gets sync'd. ;) :D

the 40gb ipod as a standalone unit does not autoadjust the time.i was a little disapointed in this. as the function to do this would be rather easy.
i dont hook my ipod to my puter but mabye once a month.

I'm pretty sure that Karachi and Bankok dont follow Daylight saving..infact none of the equatorial countries do..so whats with the DST option on those timezones? Is there any way of adding Timezones to the list? They dont have Indian Time (GMT+5.5) and so I cant have home time on my iPod and that sucks..
