Thanks Daniel,
Both would have done it, but as I have the old laptop, still in
reserve for a few days, and a complete backup on an external drive, so
I just copied over the old file as described.
Problem solved.
cheers

Hi Robin
I had the same thing happen yesterday with a client's machine as well.
The reason it happens is (I think), when the machine is first
started it
seems to go to Canberra for the location, then when you migrate your
data it
then changes to Perth, which then puts the dates out by a day.
There are two ways to fix it.
1) Follow this link to correct it.

2) If you still have the data on the old laptop, or a backup you can
do this
one.
Go to Hard Drive/Users/yourname/Library/Application Support.
There is a folder there called "AddressBook"
Move this folder out onto the desktop or somwhere.
Grab the folder from the same location on the old machine (or
backup) and
put it back into this same location on your new MBP.
Restart and it will be corrected.
Hope that helps.
Kind Regards
Daniel

I have a tricky problem for consideration by the WAMUG team and it
seems to be caused by AddressBook
I have just taken possession of my new MBP and on initial start up
migrated my user profle over from my old PowerBook. That is I
migrated
my entire profile out of 10.4.11 to 10.5.2, then updated to 10.5.3.
Everything seems fine, but I have found that when looking in iCal all
the birthday dates, sent from AddressBook have moved forward by one
day. Checking in AddressBook shows the data in there to also be out
by
one day earlier.
Can anyone suggest a remedy for this, hopefully a global fix.
I have looked through the Date and Time, International, iCal and
AddressBook preferences and settings without luck so far.
your suggestions please.
regards
robin
