The time on my iPhone 4 is roughly 30 seconds ahead of the time on my MacBook Pro. I can change hour/minute on my iPhone 4, but not the seconds. This difference presents itself as a minor annoyance when the calendar alerts on my iPhone 4 go off ~30 seconds before they go off on my MacBook Pro. Does anyone know how to fix this? By the way, the time on my MacBook Pro is in sync with the time server and my iPhone 4 is not.
 
My iPhone clock is 2 minutes behind from my atomic clock. I remember my iPhone being the most accurate clock in my house, not anymore. :(

Yes, two minutes does actually matter, especially on New Year's!
 
I've had this problem in the past--slightly annoying, but not enough to drive me completely crazy ;).

Curious: Is the iPhone synced to AT&T's network time (can't tell what you mean by "synced to time server")?
 
The iPhone has set time automatically option on (but doesn't seem to work properly) and MacBook is synced with time.apple.com.
