Due Dates Rolling Back

(closed account) says:
I posted about 90 tasks sometime last week, and I noticed today that all of the tasks' due dates are now one day earlier than I set them (an exam taking place Monday now says it's on Sunday, etc.)

Anyone else notice this happening?

Tasks showing up hours/days off are usually the result of a timezone discrepancy.

Did you happen to change timezones recently? Or did you add tasks from a computer on a different timezone than yours? Or does your timezone not match between your computer and the website?

I did change timezones recently. I wouldn't have expected two hours to make any difference since I only use due dates (not times) but so far, so good. I updated the time zone on both laptops and the website.

Thanks for the tip! Mystery solved. :)

If you just set the date, then RTM sets the time to 00:00 of that date. So if you changed timezones back by even 1 hour it would show up the day before at 23:00.
