[apple-iphone] Calendar, time, daylight saving problem

 

This has happened the last two times I have bought a new Windows PC. For years I have used an iphone, currently iphone 6 plus, syncing via itunes with Windows (currently Win 10). This must go back to about iphone 3 and Win XP but I m no longer quite sure how long ago.

The last new PC was in Summer 2011 and I found that many Calendar entries in the iphone had come forward an hour - particularly repeating "All-Day" entries were now showing from 23.00 the night before to 23.00 on the day, instead of being a true "All-Day" entry. Repeat entries with a specific time were an hour earlier!

Now I have bought a new Win 10 PC (in June) and, syncing my iphone 6 plus, which I have had some months, I find that it has happened again - the two time/calendar systems of MS and Apple do not interpret UTC/BST changes in the same way. I should add that both devices, in both cases, were already properly configured for Summer Time.

Has anyone else experienced this major glitch? It really has messed up my whole scheduling in a big way on repeating entries. Is there an easy way to correct it? Changing every entry almost defeats the object of having an electronic diary that lasts days, monthe, years, decades. How should I approach the next new PC? (Please, Apple fans, don't give me the sell - experience tells me Apple and MS can compete for bugginess)
