Question

I know it is probably simple, but how do I change the time zone on my computer?

Answer 1

Double click on your clock in the bottom right hand of your sceen. Then click the tab that says time zone. Then change your time zone.

Answer 2

If you are running Windows, just double click on the clock and click the time zone tab. You can then select the time zone from a drop down box, and set if you want to use DST.



For Mac OS X, select System Preferences from the Apple Menu. In the System Preferences window, click Date & Time. Click Time Zone. By Closest City, choose a city in your time zone.



Note: The latest versions of Mac OS X use DST automatically for Indiana. If you have Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), make sure you are running at least 10.4.5, and use Software Update to upgrade if needed. For more information, see For Mac OS or Mac OS X, how do I obtain and install system software updates? If you're running Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier and you're in Indiana, click a city in your time zone that is not in the state of Indiana, for example, Atlanta - USA (Eastern) or Austin - USA (Central).
