Not only is Daylight Savings Time changing our clocks, this year it is changing when we change our clocks. This means that our computers have to change too. All major software vendors have released patches and updates to ensure that the changes in Daylight Savings Time don’t cause us to be late for appointments.
Please verify that you have applied all the available patches and updates for your computer. On Windows machines – watch for the yellow shield in the Task Menu (lower right hand corner). Click on it and apply the updates. For Macintosh users – run Software Updates.
For detailed directions for updating your computer please see Daylight Savings Time.
If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact the Technology Helpline at x6111.
If you are running OS X 10.2.8, you will need to change the time manually, as Apple did not release an update for 10.2.8 and below.
1. Open Date and Time in the System Preferences.
2. Manually change the time 1 hour ahead after 2 a.m on March 11th.
3. You will also need to turn off the “Set date and time automatically” option — also in the Date & Time pane, under the Date & Time tab.
Well, it works like a charm, thank you man 🙂
