I sync my wizard (O2 XDA mini s) with my work PC. I work a lot with people in the US. When they set up a meeting and I accept their meeting request, my work outlook works out the time difference and puts it in my calendar at the correct UK time.

However, when I then sync, Outlook on the device shows it at the US time. Any ideas how I can resolve this?

So any ideas on this?

It's seriously annoying.

I do not have this problem. I am in US and accept meetings from Europe (Germany, UK). Can sync to my T-Mobile MDA with correct local time.

In the Day or work week view in Outlook Calendar, right click on the time pane. Select Change Time Zone. Make sure that your time zone setting is accurate there. Outlook uses GMT as a basis for its UCT or Universal coordinated time. You can check the box for show additional time zones. Add EST or PST or whatever you want and you will see the time difference. You will also be able to quickly swap time zones if you travel to meet with those people.

Next check the time zone on your device. I know it's a stupid question, but there have been a lot of problems with time zones on the wizard. Make sure the device is using your appropriate time zone setting.

For the record, I frequently make and accept appointments on my 8125 for different US time zones and have no issue with the correct time being resolved.
