Trying to setup my time zone to Eastern but keeps reverting back to pacific time zone when I hit save…any ideas???
Ok, this may sound whacky, but give it a try anyway. I had a similar (not identical) issue, and worked around it thusly:
On the same page, change the LANGUAGE to something else and save it.
It will kick you back to log-in again, then go back to the same page and set the language back to where you want it.
Now try to set the timezone.
Or try a different browser.
Thanks…different browser worked.

This didn’t work for me. I’m on IE11 under Win8. I don’t want to change browser. How do we report defects to WD?

You don’t have to change browser just use another browser for this problem.
Hi,
I have a WD MyCloud box and there is no time setting for New Zealand, so I am only able to set it to the closest available time zone setting, which means the time is always ONE hour difference in time.
I cannot find a setting for (GMT+1300) New Zealand Time Setting - and / or a daylight saving mode setting).
Cheers

New Zealand is all the way down – second from the bottom of the list – Auckland / Wellington.
It’s GMT+12.
But yeah, the Cloud apparently doesn’t know you’re still in Daylight time for another few weeks…
Just figured this out – the Cloud has a Bug – ONLY in the UI.
The internal clock is correct, and the DST rule is correct:
CloudNAS:/usr/share/zoneinfo/Pacific# zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2013
/etc/localtime Sat Apr 6 13:59:59 2013 UTC = Sun Apr 7 02:59:59 2013 NZDT isdst=1 gmtoff=46800
/etc/localtime Sat Apr 6 14:00:00 2013 UTC = Sun Apr 7 02:00:00 2013 NZST isdst=0 gmtoff=43200
/etc/localtime Sat Sep 28 13:59:59 2013 UTC = Sun Sep 29 01:59:59 2013 NZST isdst=0 gmtoff=43200
/etc/localtime Sat Sep 28 14:00:00 2013 UTC = Sun Sep 29 03:00:00 2013 NZDT isdst=1 gmtoff=46800
I set my Cloud to Auckland time, and it’s showing the correct time:
CloudNAS:/usr/share/zoneinfo/Pacific# date
Wed Mar 12 12:21:39 NZDT 2014
So it knows it’s 12:21:39 PM March 12, but the UI says it’s 11:21:39AM.
EDIT: Yeah, I messed up above – the GREP should have been 2014 – but that’s just showing the calendar – the bug is the same.
