I live on the east coast and at some point when setting up my computer, it
was set to Pacific Time...3 hours earlier.

As a result, all my email and communications show my time being off.

How do I change my computer time zone, and not have to re-enter all my
appointments in my calendar?

Export to Excel, make the appropriate changes and then import into Outlook.

Help...I exported the calendar to excell and when it imported it back, the
calendar freezes up and I'm unable to use the calendar.

I attempted to create a new calendar and copy the excell info into it newly
and the data never transfers over. The progress bar just sits there and
never moves.

Note that I also have microsoft active sinc for my palm device.

Bottom line, how do I restore my calenadar appointments to my calendar, now
that I've changed the time on my computer? Help!!

When you said it freezes, did you wait to see if it would eventually import?
How big was the calendar? Depending on the size, it can take a while to
re-populate.
