Right, so I posted here a while ago about problems syncing my K700i with iCal events... the problem was that everything showed up an hour too late on my phone's calendar. Someone suggested changing the timezone setting on the phone, which I did, from GMT daylight saving to GMT+1 daylight saving. This solved the problem with all the events which were already on the phone.

However, I noticed today that new events that I have put in since then still show up an hour too late! This is, I emphasise, with all the events put on previously now showing up at the right time. So now I have an even bigger problem. Before, everything was an hour late. Now, some stuff shows the right time, other stuff is an hour later than it should be, and there's no way of telling on the phone which is which.

wtf is going on?! I ask you to answer me either:
a) how to fix this ****. Timezones aren't activated in iCal btw, if that's supposed to make a difference; or
b) how to erase the iCal events from the phone and start again. This won't fix the problem of everything showing up an hour late, but at least then things will all be consistently one hour late, rather than some showing late, some being at the right time, which I can just about live with!!

Am considering going back to tying a knot in my handkerchief when I need to remember something! Any help much appreciated, thanks!

To reset your phone, load iSync, click on the Devices menu and select the option to "Reset All Devices..."

That will erase all the data on the phone and reload it from the Mac.
