TOPIC

    For most Mac OS 8.5 users, the Daylight Saving Time (DST) adjustment works correctly. However, some Mac OS 8.5 users have reported that the state of DST was adjusted correctly, but the menu bar clock did not change.


DISCUSSION

    This issue has been reported by a few users, who have set up Date & Time control panel to automatically adjust for DST. This issue occurs when a computer goes to sleep.

    When DST changes, users occasionally notice the dimmed DST check box changes, but the clock does not roll back (or forward) an hour.

    The solution is to set the time manually, or force a network time synchronization.

    This issue is fixed in the next update of the Mac OS.
