I think I got the link from a thread on the My-Symbian.com P800 forum a week ago. It's on a SE site somewhere. My work gateway has stopped me accessing this now so I cannot visit it and find out.
If you get no joy, I will look at home tonight and find out some more details. This suite, in fact, sorted out the connection problems I was having with the P800 suite. Its all singing/dancing now!!

Doug, when I changed the time on my phone this weekend, I did so by unchecking those boxes, basically telling the phone that those zones are not on DST anymore.

I think if you have physically changed the time on your phone then when you synch, the PC tells the phone that it is not on DST and the time is hh:nn, but the phone thinks it is on DST 'cos the box is still checked, and adjusts to one hour ahead accordingly.

Uncheck those boxes (well, turn on Southern zone because they switched over this weekend also)

Thanks Jules, will give that a go.

You can get it from HERE

Thanks for posting that link. A combination of the latest firmware (R2F) upgrade and this P900 suite and it's like having a new machine!!
If only I could sort out that time problem. I was told to remove the ticks from all the summertime boxes and try that. Will have a go and come back.

thanks [B]enterprise I'm downloading it now .. guess it's worth it, at least I can say I'm using P900 sync software [/B]

You're welcome. I'm using it already and it seems to be fine. I read that it's actually the latest upgrade to the 1.5.1 suite for P800 as well, so its guarranteed to work not only for P900 but for P800 too. Sony says that this latest version is an enhance version of 1.5.1, whereby it's more stable 😉

Yes, it definitely sorted out the problems I had with being unable to connect to Outlook.
On the time changing front, by taking out the ticks in the Summertime/Europe/Northern/Southern boxes, my time is right on my machine this morning. So there you go......

Doug

were do I get that from and what changes are made from R2A?

If in the Uk, from any authorised Sony Ericsson Service Centre. Although I live in Gosport, I had mine done in Southampton from Next Comunications Ltd.
I cannot find a page that gives the differences between R2A and R2F. I took my phone in expecting to get R2A as mine was R1 something, a very early phone, but have read other threads about the R2F and this is what I got. No complaints!
I was told that SE will only upgrade your phone free if it is within week 48. Over this and you have to pay.
