Change calendar time zone box pops up in outlook 2007.
A change to GMT + 08:00 Perth has occured(appears in box)
Appointments,meetings and reminders will be updated....ect
Select time zone in which you are usually located(select option)
I am in the same time zone,so I select GMT + 08:00 Perth
Next
Box appears saying appointments found in Personal Folders.Click OK to update
appointments.
I click OK.
Updates Personal Folders (GMT +8:00 Perth to  GMT +8:00 Perth) but comes up
with failures for all appointments.
Is annoying as this box appears randomly and must be processed before I can
continue with Office Outlook 2007.
How do I fix this?
Thanks

Using the registry edit tool in windows, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER
\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar
Create a DWORD value "DisableTimeZoneAutoPrompt" and set its value to
1.

This will disable the Change Calendar Time Zone prompt from popping up
automatically.

I was having this same problem. Again Outlook 2007, brand new Vista laptop,
in Perth. To get the pop-up to stop coming up, I changed all of my
appointments to (GMT +8:00 - Bejing ...) However, this will stop my computer
automatically registering when daylight savings occurs.

I would like to be able to change all of my appointments back to (GMT +8:00
- Perth) however, when I try to do so, outlook goes through the list of
appointments, and comes up with a fail message in all cases. I.e. There is
something wrong with Perth time zone setting, cause I can change to other
time zones (where I don't live) with no trouble, but just can't move my
appointments to the time zone where I do live.

Is there any way to fix this problem, so that outlook works properly in the
Perth Time zone and / or if such a fix doesn't yet exist, is Microsoft aware
that the Perth time zone in Outlook 2007 isn't working properly?

Regards,

Alastair

do you have the last time zone update installed?

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931836 - should be the one.

Thanks,

Yes, I have that installed. It downloaded and installed automatically
through windows update. I just checked it, and it says installed successfully.

I can change the clock to the Perth time zone, and there doesn't seem to be
a problem with that, and it does register when daylight savings will occur.
However, I am still unable to change my appointments in MS Outlook to the
Perth time zone

Regards,

Alastair
