According to reports, as a result of the daylight savings change, clocks reverted to the older time and iPhones working on iOS 4 had their their internal clocks adjusting to it automatically. However, for those who had recurring alarms set, the alarms seemed to be going off one hour later than the assigned time and created a lot of confusion for users.

Apple’s iOS 4.2 will come with several fixes, in addition to enhancements, such as “Control VoiceOver using a wireless keyboard”, multitasking as well as folders for the iPad, air printing, Apple TV AirPlay system and a few other goodies.
