I cannot change the time or date that the message comes in? When a message is received the day and time are not correct, how do I change that setting?

I Received a Message About Backdating. What Do I Do? If you receive the message below it means that your computer date has been changed to a point in the past. Either the date was set forward and you just fixed it, or it was set correctly and you just moved it back. In both cases you will receive the following message:
Express is designed to protect against backdating, as it causes major database integrity errors. If you received the above error, you should:

• Move the computer date to today's date, or
• Keep the computer date as today, restore your database to the backup made on what the computer thought was today's date, and re-enter all transactions and changes made in the database between the date that the computer thought was today (probably yesterday or the day before) through current.

For example, if today is August 23 and you discover that the computer thinks it's August 24, you will need to fix the computer date, restore the database to the one made on "August 23," (which is actually August 22) and put in all the transactions that happened between the time the backup was made on August 22 and right now.

Hi George,

You just need to set the correct time zone from Control Panel.

For XP: Just double click the time from your system tray, click on Timezone tab then choose your timezone from the drop down menu then click OK.

For Vista/7: Click on the time from system tray, click on "Change date and time settings". A window will pop up, click on "Change time zone" button, choose your timezone then click OK.

Hope this helps.

open shortcut on pc..it will show correct date, time, etc tho unit does not as it hasn't changed days..on the shortcut, click on Update settings then Send to receiver..then punch in button on back of Station..says "pc search"..transmitter on unit will start steady flashing..unit will go black..gradually everything comes back..don't touch until all back..everything will now match the stuff on the shortcut and the day and date will have changed to the correct one..I do this process every day.

try going to menu, settings, date & time, and make sure the information is correct where it says "set date" and "set time." if either is wrong, enter the correct information. that should fix it.
what happened is your phone thought you were sending a message earlier or later in time than you actually were, while whoever you're texting was sending messages on time. soooo all of your messages end up clustering at the top or bottom depending on if your phone's date & time is set early or late.

Be notified that the date on your computer does not have anything to do with the date of the mails you received. The date are autoset from the server so they must be correct, maybe you are are checking a wrong mail or something like you are not taking proper note, you may still try and check ur computer's date and make sure it is correct

Unplug the phone until it gets to that day?

Here's the link where you can download the manual.

I think it will be easier for you to read their directions than for me to try to explain this.
