Setting Account Time.

[larryg]

 I haven't been able to set the correct account system time in the MFM app., the closes I can get is one hour of the correct Eastern time.

I've set the time at GMT-5:00 (Eastern Atlantic time) and when I do that and save it, it shows +5 hours of the correct time. IE 1:00PM = 6:00PM.

If I set the time at GMT-4:00 Eastern Atlantic Canada and it will show (I guess) the correct GMT -4:00 and one hour less then my correct GMT-5:00 (Eastern Atlantic Time.

Has anyone else had this problem and how do I correct it?

 

 Thanks All

Atlantic Standard time and Eastern Standard time are two different time zones that are one hour apart.  Which one do you want?

Yes I understand that. Here's what's happening with my MFM app.

If I set it at GMT-5:00 Eastern time it shows 5 hours ahead of what it should be. (Set at 1:00pm shows 6:00pm)

If I set it at GMT-4:00 Eastern Atlantic Canada it reads correct for that zone, 1 hour ahead of Eastern time zone.

All the other TZ's are working correctly, Eastern TZ on my MFM app. is showing 5 hours advanced.

Can't figure out what going on, if it me or the app.

Thanks

What do you get on the MFM website?  There have been several cases of the time zone being set incorrectly there.

Ok, checked and it wasn't set on Eastern, changed it and I'll see if this fixes the problem.

I'll post back later with the results.

Thanks

Thank You, that fixed it, took a quick drive and the correct time (Eastern) is being reported. I knew someone would know how to fix this simple problem.

Thanks Again
