Meeting Requests and Appointments are off by one hour

Question:
When I send or receive meeting requests or view other people's calendars, the appointments are off by one hour.

This is caused by incorrect time or time zone settings on one of the computers.

1. Verify all computers involved are set to the correct time, time zone and daylight savings time settings in Windows Control Panel's Date and Time applet. You can open the Date and Time applet by double clicking on the time in the system tray.

2. Verify the settings are also correct in Outlook. Tools, Options, Preferences tab, Calendar Options button, Time Zone button.
