Help google calendar syncs 1 day off

[wooten]

does anybody know why some of my appointments sync 1 day off? i first noticed it about a month ago when i showed up a day late for an important meeting at my sons school. i thought maybe i entered the wrong date at first, but, then i noticed other events were also wrong. facebook birthdays are also wrong except they are one day early on my phone

Do you have your outlook calenday set to remind you one day early of the events actual occurence?

Wow, I haven't heard of this issue in a long time. Are you on Froyo or still on 2.1? This was a known issue back in the day but not having heard about it for a long time now, I figured it was fixed on 2.2.

Anyway, the workaround I remember was to use a different calendar widget. This is why I use Smooth Calendar to this day...just got used to it and liked it better anyway.

i'm on 2.2, i just tried smooth calendar and it seems like its just a widget for the android calendar so the dates remain the same.

It is just a widget but as I remember it, the issue was pinpointed to the widget for some people which is why I mentioned it. Logon to your Google account from a PC. Are they off by a day on there too or just the phone? If both, create a fake appt while online, then check the phone. Does it show the desired date in that instance?

This is due to an incorrect time zone on your device. If anyone else has this issue, check your time / date and time zone.
It was doing it to me and when I corrected the time zone, everything synced.
Hope this helps!!
