Calendar event showing up the wrong timezone

Hi there, I refer to the screenshots below. The user, Pamela, sends out a calendar invite to both Jeff and Kok Guan, specifying the correct timezone UTC +0800. However, what Jeff views this event on his Mac running on Yosemite 10.10.2 is the UTC +0000 timezone, Monrovia, Reykjavik. The time indicated is displayed 6am instead of the actual 2pm, despite showing a notification that the event will commence at 2pm on Jeff's Mac. How do i go about correcting/removing the UTC +0000, Monrovia, Reykjavik, timezone stamp. Appreciate some help with this. Thanks!

Regards

Kenny

Unfortunately, the server update won't fix existing meetings automatically.  However, users MAY be able to fix it themselves if they find the original meeting invitation (could be in Deleted Items) and re-accept the meeting(s) with the "UTC" time zones.  (Let us know if that works.)

If that doesn't work, they will have to ask the organizer to re-send the invitation.  (Organizer just has to open the meeting on his/her calendar and click "Send Update." Make sure to "Edit Series" if it is a recurring meeting.)

    This may be the case but Outlook for Mac (part of Office 365) does not include the fix.  I can add appointments in GMT-500 or GMT-600 (Central Standard and Central Daylight time on my Android phone and when the appointment is read in Outlook for Windows, it shows the correct time zone.  When I open the appointment in Outlook for Mac, it resets to UTC time zone.  I'm still looking for a fix from Microsoft.

    The server fix for EAS was part of the December CU of Exchange.

    Yes, this code change is in the Outlook for Mac client, so is not dependent on where your Exchange server is.
