My region not available in date/time settings ...

Hi all,

I have just received the Sony DPF-W700 photo frame as a Christmas gift.

I have gone through the setup and have hit a small glitch! I am currently in Australia, but the time zone for Australia (Brisbane) is sadly missing from the list; all others are present. The closest I can get is Australia (Sydney); unfortunately, there is a one-hour time difference between the two cities so my display is incorrect.

Do any of you know how I can rectify this? I have set the time manually but that's only a partial solution as this prevents me from setting the weather display for my city.

Any help gratefully received.

Season's greetings!

Sharon M.

Hello Sharon - Welcome to the Sony Forums :slight_smile:


There is some information about setting the date and time in the manual on page 58 - you can read the electronic copy here:

If your local area is not available in the software then it may be a known software glitch/omission. You could always try reporting the issue directly to Sony in Australia - their contacts details are here:


https://www.sony.com.au/section/contactus


Hopefully they will be able to give you a definitive answer either way - although this wouldn't affect the general operation of the photo frame it would naturally be annoying to not have the weather function for your home city as I am aware (albeit from the other side of the world) that Brisbane is a pretty big place!


Thanks,


Simon
