Related: About this forumThe time stamp on my computer is different from DU's.
Right now my computer says it's 8:07 p.m. here in California.
Checking various threads shows that DU has gone to daylight savings time, or something resembling that.
Is that what's happening?

(23,584 posts)The change occurs at particular time on the server which may not match up with your personal time zone. Once your time zone catches up (at 2am local time) then things will be back to normal. If it's bothering you at the moment, you can change your time zone in Account Settings to get the correct time, then change it back in the morning.

That's OK. My cameras never get reset for DST or Non-DST, so I often end up processing photos before they were taken. So says the computer.
