You can change your time zone at any time in eReminder Center.
You can also add and display a second time zone in eReminder, which is useful when scheduling meetings or conference calls with people in other time zones. When you add a second time zone, the current time in the primary time zone will be highlighted with gradient colors to make it easier to see.
If two time zones are shown, the meeting organizer's time zone is the reference point. If you organize a meeting and display free/busy time (free/busy time: In Calendar, time status and user defined labels are indicated by colors and patterns.) for invitees from other time zones, their busy times adjust to display correctly in your time zone. The second time zone is visible only when viewing days.
eReminder Calendar items' start and end times are stored in terms of Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). UTC was developed as the international time standard. It is similar to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) except that it observes no daylight saving time (DST) and is based on a 24-hour clock. Zero (0) hours UTC is midnight GMT. The local 24-hour time convention is converted to UTC by adding or subtracting hours based on your location with respect to the prime meridian as well as local daylight saving time considerations.
Note There is no difference in how appointments, meeting items, and all-day events are treated with respect to time zones.
