So can I just set my Time Zone to Eastern? - sscutchen - 03-11-2007

I'm running 10.4.3 and had plannned to stay here. Stable. No problems.

But now DST is here and my time is off by an hour.

I tried manually setting the clock to the correct time rather than using the time server, but this caused an offset with apps like my TV guide widget.

I can't find any way in the OS to manually set DST on or off.

Can I simply set my time zone from cental to eastern until we catch up with old DST?

Can anyone think of a pothole that I'll step in with this workaround?

I use "My Way" for tv listings and had no problema. Best web site other than this on the net. Takes a little customizing but the tv listings and pet pictures rock. Select "Today" on the choices.

Apple Software Update about a week ago had fixes for that, but it may require 10.4.8.

turn off automatic time update and change it manually?
