Hi Steff. It looks like it is right. I used America/Grand_Turk EDT (-4). It will be curious if we have the same 'daylight savings'. Time sure has become an issue with this bloody virus. We have 3 alarm clocks on the go. ha, ha. Or I guess LOL (not a texter!)

Thanks a bunch.

Ta da....it's right! It appears its the same as America/Grand_Turk EDT (-4).

Thanks again.

Thanks Cinnamon Girl. I am not sure if it is correct. I will see if it is right after this one. It is 11:40 EST here now.

Another question...can I remove a tag from the subject of a post I made?

Thanks again.

Hi Trudy, I`ve edited your first post and removed the tag for you.  Glad you`ve got the right time zone now - this forum is a whole new adventure every day!

ps - If you wanted to remove or change what`s written in your signature line too,  you can do that youself in your profile settings, or ask us and Steff or myself will do it for you.

if this birdbrained kiwi can find a correct time zone for way down here, im sure its possible to find one for canada.... mine is fine, its on nz time, and we are saturday morning at 9.05 am....

good luck. it works. just work on it.

Hi EOG.

Can you let me know if its set to the correct time now? Hope so

Love Steff xx

Thanks EOG, glad you`re enjoying looking round the forum.  Yes we`ve got a great community of people here, as well as loads of good info. 

We`re looking into your time zone difficulties and will let you know if we come up with anything to help.

Hi Cinnamon Girl. Thanks for the welcome and our best goes out to you. So many stories and suggestions, encouragements and celebrations, friends perhaps marriages, information sharing, just downright a great place to come. Thank you for your time and compassion to this site.

Now as for this date issue. I have tried approx 20 changes from all countries and saved it and my time is always 3 hours out. When it says 7 pm it is 10 pm here. Unless I'm doing something really dumb (and lately that is quite possible!!!) I think maybe the drop down should include Canada separately, time changes and all.

Just a thought, once you`ve selected a time zone that matches where you are in Canada, make sure you click on `Save Changes` at the bottom of that box so that it stays like that.

Not sure if that helps but thought I`d mention it.

Hi Hrsetrdr. I tried what you said and it stays the same which is 3 hrs behind. I'll keep plugging until I get it unless the Easter Standard Time in Canada is not on the list.

Thanks

EOG

Hi Cinnamon Girl.

Thanks for responding. I tried the Atikokan which indicated EST but it is still three hours behind our time. Anything else to try?

Thanks

EOG

 Choose any setting from the dropdown window that is "-5".  For EDT choose "-4".

Edit:   see the link below for a screenshot of the settings downdown choice:

Hi and welcome to you EasternOntarioGirl.

Ok, to change to your own time zone, go to your `Profile` box and select `Settings`, and another box will open for you. 

Scroll down and select `Time Zone` and click on the drop-down menu and a list of  time zones will pop up.  I think the one you`re looking for is America/Atitokan (EST).

Let me know if you need any more help with that.

ps- I`ve just been reading your story, wishing all the best to you and your husband.
