Help Sync feature not working and problem accessing secure website

[Mkemn]

Am new to the forum and hoping for some advice.
I've just received a new samsung gxy for Christmas and noticed 2 problems while using:

1. Sync feature on home page is not working (ie. It's Tuesday but home page still says Monday).

The other problem:
2. When I try to log onto my secure banking page, I keep getting a time out message. I checked the setting on another device and it's set for 20 mins - so plenty of time. Not sure if it's an android problem, device problem, maybe the site won't allow access via android (it works via an iPad though). Any suggestions?

As far as syncing is concerned, I can't help much. One comment, what time zone do you have your Google account set for?

On the banking thing, I have 2 banks and that happened to me with one of them. I used their app all the time & one day it just kept timing me out right during the log in process. The other bank worked just fine. I tried a couple of days later & it worked fine. I think the problem was on the bank's side not mine. I would verify that I could log on on a computer just to make sure there aren't any security questions hanging you up.

I had some issues on my galaxy smartphone with https sites (usually banks are secure http...) and websites at work with windows authentication on... When i used the standard out of the box Android "internet explorer" I had the problems. Then i downloaded Firefox and that worked fine !
