Monitoring - Users may experience slowness with FASmail message delivery (incoming and outgoing) on generic and resource mailboxes. The issue is isolated to mailboxes hosted on our Exchange on-premises environment and does not impact mailboxes that have been migrated to Exchange Online.

Service has been recovered and messages are now being delivered with delayed delivery.

Oct 16, 2026 - 09:54 PDT
Update - If you are using UBC FASmail or UBC Student Email, you can now update your meetings using UBC IT's self-service tool. The tool can update many meetings automatically and identify those that require manual review.

If you are not using UBC FASmail or UBC Student Email, please consult with your department or organization on how to update your upcoming meetings. You may need to manually update your meetings to the new time zone.

For updated information, visit https://www.it.ubc.ca/timezonechange

Oct 26, 2026 - 16:17 PDT

Update - UBC IT is still working with vendors and validating guidance. We plan to share detailed information on Tuesday, October 20, 2026 (afternoon).
Oct 16, 2026 - 15:18 PDT
Investigating - British Columbia has adopted permanent year-round daylight saving time (Pacific Time), with the change scheduled to take effect on November 1. We recognize that some community members may have questions about the impact on calendars, devices, and scheduled meetings.

UBC IT is actively working with Microsoft and Apple to coordinate the required time zone updates for computers, mobile devices, and calendaring services. We anticipate updates from our vendors will begin rolling out next week.

UBC IT plans to provide detailed guidance by October 16 outlining what to expect and any actions that may be required.
Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure a smooth transition.

Oct 09, 2026 - 14:14 PDT
Monitoring - After investigating, UBC IT technicians have determined that a recent required network upgrade resulted in some older devices being unable to connect to UBC's networks. UBC's wireless network remains fully functional, and most up-to-date devices are able to connect.

We strongly recommend that all clients ensure their devices are up to date with the latest versions of their operating system. For Macs this is MacOS 27.2.1, and for iPhone/iPad this is iOS version 27.2.1.

If your phone or computer is unable to update to the latest version, clients may opt to use the UBC IoT network as an alternative, if connecting from on-campus. More information about the IoT network can be found at https://it.ubc.ca/services/email-voice-internet/ubc-internet-things-iot-wi-fi.

Nov 12, 2026 - 06:01 PST
Update - Noted workarounds appear to be working for affected users.
Technicians are still monitoring the issue; however, recommendation is to apply one of the workarounds/fixes.

Nov 04, 2026 - 15:38 PST
Update - Issue is still being investigated.

For workarounds:

1. Update your MacOS operating system
2. Use the UBCIoT Wifi network (https://it.ubc.ca/services/email-voice-internet/ubc-internet-things-iot-wi-fi)

Nov 04, 2026 - 13:53 PST
Investigating - There is currently an issue that some Mac devices are unable to connect to the UBC wireless networks.

Technicians are investigating the issue.

Next update will be at 15:00

Nov 04, 2026 - 12:42 PST
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Nov 10, 2026 - 16:00 PST
Scheduled - The UBC Identity Broker (IDBK) will undergo scheduled maintenance beginning November 10, 2026 at 16:00 PT to November 17, 2026 16:00 PT.

The service will be updated to onboard a new service and increase resourcing capacity.

No end user impact is expected.

Nov 10, 2026 16:00 - Nov 17, 2026 16:00 PST
Identified - We have identified an issue where Zoom meetings accessed through Canvas may show a start time that is one hour off, even when your Zoom timezone is set to “(GMT-7:00) Vancouver.”

This affects the displayed time only. If your meeting was created using the “(GMT-7:00) Vancouver” timezone, it is still scheduled at the correct time.

Workaround: To see the correct meeting times in Canvas, set your Zoom timezone to “(GMT-7:00) Arizona” when using Zoom through Canvas.

Nov 03, 2026 - 14:24 PST
Update - Users accessing Zoom through Canvas may see meeting times shown in the wrong timezone. The timezone may also change on its own when the page is refreshed. We are currently investigating the issue.
In the meantime:
â€Ē When scheduling a new meeting, make sure the timezone is set to “(GMT -7:00) Pacific Time (Vancouver)” before saving.
â€Ē For meetings already scheduled, times in Canvas should display correctly as long as your Zoom timezone is set to “(GMT -7:00) Pacific Time (Vancouver).”

Nov 03, 2026 - 10:55 PST
Investigating - We are currently investigating the time zone issue in Canvas Zoom integration. Users may notice inconsistent time zone displayed on the top of the web page. Please change to “(GMT-7:00) Vancouver” for correct time to join/schedule sessions.
Nov 03, 2026 - 09:24 PST
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Oct 20, 2026 - 16:01 PDT
Scheduled - UBC IT will be preparing end user devices for the transition to the new BC time zone (PCT, UTC -7:00). MacOS devices that are currently set to America/Los_Angeles, America/Tijuana or US/Pacific (PST/PDT) will be transitioned to America/Vancouver to address the new time zone for British Columbia. We realize this may impact a small number of devices operating outside BC (Washington, Oregon, California) that may need to be corrected after this change.
Oct 20, 2026 16:00 - Nov 30, 2026 15:00 PST
Update - This issue is still ongoing. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please continue reaching out to the Integrated Service Centre for questions and support.
Sep 29, 2026 - 16:44 PDT
Investigating - Faculty are unable to view their current or upcoming teaching assignments when using the View My Teaching Schedule report in Workday. The issue is being investigated.

In the meantime, when running the View My Teaching Schedule report in Workday to view teaching assignments, search for the specific academic period in the 'Academic Period' field. For example, for 2026 Winter Term 1, type in "2026 Winter" and press 'Enter'. Select from the academic period options. Select 'OK'.

Please reach out to the Integrated Service Centre for questions and support.

Sep 21, 2026 - 16:17 PDT
Investigating - Microsoft has announced that effective July 13th, 2026, Office applications will no longer be supported on older MacOS and iOS systems, and further, they are removing support for older versions of Office entirely.

â€Ē Clients which are running operating systems earlier than the following minimums will no longer be able to edit or save files after the change:
Mac OS – minimum version 12.0 (Monterey)
iOS – minimum version 17.0

â€Ē Clients who are using Office 2019 for Mac, regardless of operating system, will be unable to edit or save files after the change.
â€Ē Clients who are using Office 2021 for Mac or MS 365 apps on iPhone and iPads will continue to function normally, provided the operating systems are supported (as listed above) and at the following minimum software versions:
Office 2021 for Mac – minimum version 16.83
MS365 apps for iOS – minimum version 2.93

UBC IT strongly recommends that all clients running Office on a Mac, iPhone, or iPad update their operating systems and Office software before July 13th to prevent any disruptions.

Resolved - On November 7, 2026 at 12:00 PT the RogersGuest WiFi network was turned off at all UBC locations. This includes Vancouver (Point Grey), Robson Square, UBC Okanagan and the remote sites where it was available.

RogersGuest is a legacy hotspot service that Rogers Communications set up for its customers. It is not a UBC wireless service, and UBC and Rogers have agreed it is no longer needed.

Who is affected
Mainly Rogers customers who connect to RogersGuest while at a UBC location. UBC's own wireless networks are not affected (ubcsecure, eduroam, ubcvisitor, ubcprivate, ubcIoT).

What you need to do
If you have been using RogersGuest at UBC, please connect to one of UBC's wireless networks instead:

UBC students, faculty and staff: connect to ubcsecure with your CWL. Setup guides: it.ubc.ca/services/email-voice-internet/wireless-internet-access/wireless-internet-access-setup-documents

Visitors from eduroam member institutions: connect to eduroam with your home institution credentials.

Guests visiting: connect to ubcvisitor.

Need help?

As a precaution, some UBC websites or services may be temporarily unavailable from off-campus while they are assessed and security updates are applied. If a website you are trying to access is unavailable, this may be the reason.
