Description Hanno 2008-06-19 00:00:09 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                OS X

I can't set my timezone in kontact (korganizer). The drop down menu exists, but it has no entries. Therefore I can't sync my Calendar, because somehow the default is something like GMT+1 and I am in GMT...
This bug is only present in the MacOS X packages from mac.kde.org, it works fine in openSUSE kde4.1 beta

As a workaround,  put the following lines in your korganizerrc file (which you should find under .kde/share/config) and replace America/New_York with your preferred timezone

[Time & Date]
TimeZoneId=America/New_York

Comment 4 Hanno 2009-03-05 10:58:11 UTC

i'm curious.. what's the status of this (over 3 years later)

I'm afraid you'll have to debug it yourself or ping till.
We don't have any korganizer developers on mac.
