Daylight Saving Time Update 2007

Congress has changed the dates for Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United States starting in 2007. Canada has adopted similar DST dates. These changes could cause clocks and Microsoft Outlook calendar appointments on Windows Mobile-powered devices to display incorrect times for March 11 - April 1, 2007 and October 28 - November 4, 2007 and again in subsequent years.

Steps for updating your system:

1. You should have MS Windows Update 931836 (2007 time zone update for Microsoft Windows operating systems). More info [here].
2. If you use MS Outlook, you should download and run the Outlook Time Zone Update Tool. More info [here].
3. If you have a Windows Mobile device,
4. • Connect it to your PC and download and run the Daylight Saving Time 2007 Update Tool for Windows Mobile. You can download the .msi file [in this link].
   • Change the current time zone to any time zone other than the one that is currently selected.
   • Change the current time zone to the one you want to use.
5. If you have a Palm OS device,
6. • Download and install the Daylight Saving Time Update for Palm OS to your Palm OS device.
   • Perform a HotSync operation.
   • Tap on the application named DSTUpdater, and tap "OK" to install the update.

I'm not yet aware of available DST 2007 updates for Mac OS X and Linux.
