Can't change the date and time

On a recent trip abroad, my N96 automatically switched to the local time on arrival, but it failed to switch back to UK time when I returned. Now my phone is stuck 3 hours ahead, and it won't let me change the date or time manually. When I select Settings | General | Date and time, and click Open, 'Change' flashes up briefly, but even if I'm fast enough to click it, nothing happens.
I've tried reverting to the Factory Settings, but that did not resolve the problem. I've also checked for Firmware updates, but there aren't any. Any suggestions for fixing this would be very welcome...

Your operator doesn't seem to support time autoupdate while the operator you connected to while abroad does.
Go into the clock settings and set auto time update to "off". Then set the time zone to "GMT 0:00 London". This should bring the clock's time back to what it should be. If it doesn't, at least you can do so manually now (having auto time update set to "on" removes your ability to set the date and time manually).

  • Change the date and time of a photo in iPhoto?

    How can I change the date and time of a photo in iPhoto?

    Use either the Adjust time and date command or batch change time and date command
    Adjust is to fix incorrect times like wrong camera settings - batch change is to record a totally new time and date - typically for scanned photos
    Select the photo(s) and use the appropriate command for your needs

  • Apple Remote Desktop - how to change the date and time server ip address?

    Our imacs keep getting out of synch with our Windows Active Directory server and when they do, users can no longer log into the imacs. The imacs this morning were more than 5 minutes fast, for example.
    So, we have changed the date and time server on one of our imacs to our internal time server and that works fine. Now I would like to update all of the other imacs using a unix command in ARD. Can anyone tell me how to send this change? For this message, let's say our internal time server is 172.30.100.100

    Not a problem. There are a number of other system and network setup commands that you might find useful at some time. From within the Remote Desktop Admin in the Send Unix Command window type:
    networksetup -help
    systemsetup -help
    That will give you lists of the commands, including the one I posted above, with their basic syntax. They're handy to know.
    Cheers.

  • How do you change the date and time format in Pages

    I've tried changing the date and time format a number of times for Pages but it does not change.  I'm going to the System Preferences/Language and Text and Formats.  I make the changes click on OK and go back to Pages.  NO change.

    Hi Uncle,
    Page 116 of the Pages'09 User Guide: Control Click the date, Edit Date and Time.
    Date and time can also be in a table. Format the table cell.
    The User Guide is well worth a read. Download it from the Help menu in Pages.

  • Changing the Date and Time of photos

    Hello,
    i have been importing images from my windows machine and want all the dates to be correct, i have seen the adjust date and time, and made the changes but under the events the dates dont change and when i click individual photos the dates and times are not changing.
    so i was wondering how do i change the time for each photo and event? can i change the time to a start and finish date rather than just one date?
    Any help with the above would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have just looked at this again, i dont see an option to set both a start and end date, any ideas?
    That is not an an option - and it makes no sense
    You can do one of three things:
    1 - add a constant delta to all selected photos thereby correcting an incorrect setting on a camera and preserving the sequence and integrity of the photos dates ad times
    2 - change the date and time for all selected photos to a specific value
    3 - change the date and time for all selected photos to a base value plus an increment for each successive photo.
    There are two choices under the photos menu
    1 - adjust date and time - this adds a constant Delta to the selected photos - is is designed for correcting camera times or time zones but keeping the basic sequence
    2 - batch change date and time - this simply changes the date & time to your selected value with an option to add an increment to each
    Both have an option to modify the original photo which I do (I'm not sure why you would not want to modify the original)
    And when i go into photos, the ones that i have altered by +Photos >>> Adjust Date and Time+ still have different times and dates, any ideas?
    AS described in the iPhoto help and above
    1 - adjust date and time - this adds a constant Delta to the selected photos - is is designed for correcting camera times or time zones but keeping the basic sequence
    So after adjusting time and date all photos selected will have the time and date changed by the same amount (a constant delta) and if they were all different before they will still all be different - if they were all the same before adjustment they will still all be the same but at a different value

  • Can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic?

    I know I can get info and see a pics info, but can Iphoto display the date and time of a pic on the pic itself?

    Use the Photos->Batch Change menu option to set the Title to Date and Time. That will give you what you want under each thumbnail.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • Can I change the moments and time for photos?

    Can I change the moments and time for photos?

    By editing the EXIF data. You'd need an EXIF editor for this...if using Windows, you can use Windows Exploroer. To do so on your phone, you need an app, like this:

  • Don't have proper privilege to change the date and time. Group Policy does not work

    Hello All,
    I have configure group policy to change date and time only administrator. The problem is Windows XP machine cannot view the calendar but windows 7 can. So i need to view the calender for windows XP machine.
    Error: you do not have proper privilege to change the date and time.  
    Please suggest.
    Thanks

    Hi Parvez,
    Before going further:
    I applied a VM Windows XP pro. When I logged in as a local admin, I can view the calendar from the right corner of desktop or from control
    panel. However, when I logged in as a normal user account, I received the same message as yours.
    For now:
    I know this is not what you want. However, for normal users to view calendar, we can consider to give
    Change System Time permissions to these users.
    In addition, regarding this topic, the following article and thread can be referred to for more information.

  • I just bought my apple tv and it says that it can't set the date and time? How do i fix this?

    I just bought my apple tv and it says that it can't set the date and time? How do i fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    A number of users have encountered this problem, for existing users the problem has largely been resolved by restarting the Apple TV. However since you are a new user it would be wise to check that your settings are correct to begin with. Ensure the router allows access over port 123 (TCP) and that you are using the DNS settings provided by the ISP and not your own.

  • How can I preserve the date and time of photos when moving them from iPhone to iPhoto and then to other folders on my computer?

    In the past I’ve had no problem moving photos from my iPhone 4 into various folders on my computer while retaining their original date and time. I would import into iPhoto, then drag the photos from iPhoto into other folders via the Finder or Adobe Bridge (which is my principal image organizer). The original date and time of the photo would always travel with the jpeg into iPhoto and then into other folders. However, sometime during a recent session transferring photos in this way, the dates of the photos started to change at the point when I copied them out of iPhoto. Within iPhoto itself, the various original dates of the photos are retained. But in Finder and Bridge, copies of those same photos all carry the same (worthless) date: the date and time that they were imported from my iPhone. I can’t figure out what would have changed on my Mac to make it start re-dating my photos. I was happily dragging and dropping photos, and suddently I started to lose the original dates. Did I inadvertently change some settings? (I am running OS 10.6.8 and using iPhoto 8.)

    (I use iPhoto only to import from my iPhone; I organize all my images, including thousands of RAW files, in folders on a big external drive.)
    Why are you using iPhoto at all? use image capture or drag and drop the photos
    The problem is that the files I am copying are getting stripped of the EXIF metadata
    eliminating iPhoto from your work flow will eliminate one oppertunity to have this happen  For photos in iPhoto it is best to export them rather than drag an drop them - this assures your EXIF and IPTC data is correct and uptodate
    Why would I be able, over many years, to retain EXIF metadata in photos imported from an iPhone--then one day find that the same workflow strips such photos of EXIF data?
    Because exporting is the supported way to "export" photos - I never drag and drop photos out of iPhoto and I never use thrid party programs on the photos in the iPhoto library - try exporting as suggested above and see if that is the solution
