In 2007 new days were established for changing to Daylight Saving Time and back to Standard Time.  It happened last night in most places. 

Chances are many of your gadgets that were set to adjust did so just fine.  A problem is that many devices the date pre 2005 wouldn't know to do this.  They need to be upgraded to use the new dates or  your clocks will not change automatically on November 1st at 2:00 AM.  If they can't be upgraded you will have to resort to doing it manually.

Can't find how to change your device manually?  Well a website call Retrevo.com can help you.  Retrevo.com is an electronics search engine and information portal.  Enter the make and model of your gadget along with a catch phrase like "change time" and Retrevo will take you to that page in the product's user manual to allow you to complete your time change.

You will find manuals for all sorts of electronics on Retrevo, and you can even save a copy of the manual to reference later.
