I have been using the scheduler with no problems,,until I took my laptop out of state.The first thing I noticed was the computer clock was not in sync with the actual time(1 hour off)or time zone.so I had to manually post them,during this process some of them started to post with scheduler,but was at the wrong time...I returned to my home state,computer clock is at correct time for time zone,I scheduled a few more listings..They did not go on at correct time,,I need your help with this one..I accouted for PST zone..Could clocks be out of sync? anyone else having this problem?

To elaborate.....

The listing scheduler schedules according to time specific to your selected account time zone and the optional compensation for daylight savings time, e.g. if you select the Central Standard Time zone and check "Adjust for Daylight Savings time" and schedule a listing for 1pm tomorrow, the listing lists at 1pm CDT tomorrow (since we are currenlty in daylight savings). Since US switch to Daylight Savings Time a few weeks ago, it's an important consideration for scheduling.

Local time on your computer (wherever you are on the planet) is not a consideration for the scheduler. The scheduler operates specific to what you select in account settings.
