There is a daylight saving time display 'bug' that affects both Outlook for Windows and Outlook for Mac. It's not really a bug, but a limitation of the capabilities of the time scale and only affect people who start the week on Sunday. It's also more noticeable if you use Outlook for Windows with two time zones enabled and the default zone is west of the secondary zone. There are also display issues when the time zones switch to (or from) daylight saving time on different dates.
This view anomaly occurs because the default is a zone west of the secondary and Outlook takes into consideration that DST goes into effect in the earlier time zone and adjusts the times using the wrong offset. The entire 24 hour period uses the same offset and the first day in the view determines the offset. Add, remove, or change time zones. Click the File tab. Click Options. On the Calendar tab, under Time zones, type a name for the current time zone in the Label box. In the Time zone list, click the time zone that you want to use. Notes: When you adjust time zone and daylight saving time settings in Outlook, Windows.
In all situations, opening the appointment will show the correct time. Solution: Use the work week view, the day view, or start the week on Monday or use any view that doesn't start on Sunday. When Outlook starts the week on the Sunday the week the time changes, the time scale will use the scale in effect when the clock rolls over to Sunday, not the time scale that is in effect most of the day. When you use the week view, all events the entire week will appear to be off by an hour when viewed in the weekly calendar. If you happen to use dual time zones in Outlook for Windows and your default time zone is west of the second zone, an extra hour is added to the time scale offset for the Sunday DST goes into effect.
