iPhone alarms NOT WORKING after 12am 1/1/2011

Anyone else yet discover their iPhone alarm is no longer going off at the set time(s) after moving into 2011? I have the 3GS and the alarm will not fire up since 12:01 1/1/2011. Try your iPhone alarm and see if it works. Some have already started reporting this on the apple forums. No solution as of yet to fix this 2011 bug.
 
Trust me... if you have an iphone your alarm is NOT working as of HAPPY NEW YEARS 2011 !!!
The apple forum is already buzzing world wide with this issue.
One pilot claimed he was late for his flight due to this.

One time alarms are broken, re-occuring alarms still go off as planned. Annoying to say the least.
 
Just tried it and sure enough - one-time alarms aren't working on my 3GS running iOS 4.2.1. When I selected to have the alarm repeat every day, it popped up without issues. Thanks for the tip! I would soo oversleep for work on Monday...
 
Thanks to the OP for the heads up.

I had to get up for work this morning. So, as a precaution I set a 'recurring' alarm as well as my normal daily alarm.

I can confirm that the 'one-time' alarm failed to off - although the weekly alarm went off fine.

This is on a 3GS on OS 4.1
 
One time alarm not working here either on 4.1. Good thing I use an actual alarm clock for such things =P
 
Well... I set an alarm for today morning, made it so that it should repeat every day and sure, it rang at 7AM fine. Then I clicked snooze to grab my usual 9 more minutes of resting before I jump from bed and what? The snooze didn't go off! Woke up at 8:10 AM and wasn't happy at all... The phone still had the alarm icon on the status bar, but not once did it ring after I clicked on snooze 🙁 This is just.... *sigh*
 
NO... Repeats are not working or a reliable fix for everyone.
Also, do not count on this issue fixing itself on 1/3 as that might not the case either. The only fix I found until apple puts out an OS update, is to download the "free" app BEST ALARM CLOCK and use that, until apple addresses this.
