Dashboard world clock issue

Since ML I can't add any standard world clock widget to my dashboard other than automatically set up to my local time.
Any one wit same issue ?
Any Ideas ?
Jean.

I finally called Apple Care.
The solution is to delete the corrupted plist file named "widget-com.apple.widget.worldclock.plist"
in the preferences folder in your user library
Restart the computer, a new file is created and you can make your dashboard clock widget settings as usual.

From where can I download the original Dashboard World Clock for OS 10.6.8? Mine's not working

Hi there,
I'm not sure what happened but my Dashboard World Clock doesn't work anymore. I had taken it off my dashboard along with other widgets when I was trying to speed up my computer. I then added the same widgets back to the dashboard except the World Clock no longer showed up in the widgets list. The other widgets were all fine.
I can see the World Clock widget file in my widgets folder in Library but it won't show up anywhere on the dashboard so I'd like to download a new file to see if that helps.
Thanks!

There are multiple world clock dashboard widgets available.
See if you can find the one for the image you posted > Apple - Downloads - Dashboard
The glitch may be that the one want has been updated to a newer user interface.

World clock issue

does anyone noticed that with ne the mountain lion the world clocks widget in the dashboard cannot be set? every one doesn't show the city, am/pm and the most important thing the "i" that allows you to turn it and set it.

Hi TrinityGal3
The only thing I can think of is dat you opened the folder /Library/Preferences while it should be
~/Library/Preferences
(see step 3 in my previous posting) It's important not to forget the ~ sign

Multiple World clock issues

I travel from the U.S. to Tokyo and other Asian cities on a regular basis. Thus, have set a number major cities clocks.
Problem is, They were entered in a random fashion as I visted each location. I would like to arrange them in a time zone sequence(east to west, west to east, doesn't matter), but there does not appear a way to do this, except delete and replace manually.
This really is not an effiecient way of doing things.
And Inevitabily, a new city will need to be added. There is no way to insert it in proper sequence with "delete-replace" again.
Anyone know how to do this or have ideas?
Also, how do I set the city I happen to be in as the default for the the period I am there?
Thanks in advance.

Ok guys, I got it.
Removing .plist file works fine for me too, but I need to restart the Mac (killing the process doesn't work).
For those who read this message, I found the following link usefull:

On step 4, however, I had to restart the Mac.
Thank you.

World Clock widget in Dashboard - missing hands

Prior to Daylight Saving Time (South Australia) all clock hands [hour, minute etc.] on the world clock widget in the Dashboard were visible.
However, the day after the introduction of Daylight Saving Time the clock hands had gone. I've heard of people who believe that curtains fade due to DST, but clock hands? :-)))
I downloaded another world clock ('Stationsklok') but that was also minus the clock hands. The same was done with a digital clock widget ('Flip Clock') and the numerals were missing.
I removed the original world clock and replaced it with another - no luck. Trashing the world clock plist files has not brought any luck either.
Can anyone suggest anything else that I can try?

Adding a UCT to Dashboard Widget World Clock

Hi
Is it possible to customise the Dashboard Widget World Clock so that I can add a UTC (Universal Time Clock).
It has many countries but no UTC which is extremely handy for synchronising activities with people all over the world.

I would like to second the request to add UCT to the list of timezones supported in World Clock!

Help with time issue needed. World Clock times 1hr ahead of correct time

although the time on the iPhone home screen is right (top of screen). That is, since I'm in central time, the iPhone shows, say 5:14 (time now) but a city in World Clock in central zone shoes 6:14. Other cities in other zones are off by the +1hour amount. Many calls to Apple and AT&T, now the finger pointing has started.
Multiple phones in my location have the same problem. All three in our family, two owned by a colleague and 2 on display at the AT&T store.
The problem clears up when I'm well out of the area, say Nashville or Bowling Green but reappears when I'm back home in West Kentucky. AT&T says their network is fine, must be the phone or app; Apple says since multiple phones with several versions of the operating system are showing the issue, must be AT&T.
Ideas?

I am having the same issue (clocks not matching) with my iPod Classic. Definitely not an AT&T issue!

Issues with World Clock widget in Notification Center

The widget is inconsistent when showing the correct time for foreign locations. Right now it's showing the time in Perth as 5pm when it's actually 5am. The times in London and Paris are correct. Is anyone else having this issue?

I don't even see AM or PM in the World Clock -- only an analog 12-hour dial. It's not adequate. A world clock ought to display either AM/PM or 24-hour time (should be a configurable preference) and also the date.

Can't find i button for World Clock of Dashboard widget

Can't find i button for World Clock of Dashboard widget to change the City.

Hi ogawam,
in my clock there is no i nor sydney.
Sydney is my city (Time Zone). What city does your clock show?
Try this:
System Preferences > Language and Text > Region
What does it show?
Regards,
Ian.

Hacking: Dashboard and World Clock widget

The "World Clock" seems to be a misnomer for the lack of cities/timezones it has. In the past, I have hacked the clock, under 10.4, following the directions: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050430193250534 I try to do the same in 10.6.1, but when I open WorldClock.js, I notice there's a new field "id". From the head of the file, it looks like some sort of "geoID". Anyone know what this number represents? Where to find others?

Figured it out - it's a standardized Geoname: www.geonames.org

Bug in iOS world clock not refreshing?

If I view the world clock in iOS 7 and leave to another app for a few minutes/hours, and then return to the clock app, the world clock remains at the time I last viewed it. It appears to not refresh to the latest time. The only way to update the clock is if I view something else in the clock app such as alarms etc. or tap it from digital to analog and back.
Does this happen to you?
I have 11 time zones setup.

Hi Ckuan, the issue is back. I think it's a bug. Here is another screenshot.
Steps to repeat:
1. view the world clock in digital view (I have tested with 11 clocks)
2. leave the world clock as-is and go to other apps
3. go back to the world clock after several minutes/hours without touching the clocks
If you scroll the clocks, it can refresh to the latest time. Some clocks are already refreshed. Some are at the last time viewed.
This issue can happen with or without automatically setting the time. When travelling, I turn off several features. I noticed this when I nearly missed a meeting and quoted a time incorrectly.

Widgets world clock can't change country when I update to Mountain Lion

Hello everyone,
When I update to Mountain Lion (from Lion), the widgets world clock can't change other country (the clock can't show the information button).
Is this a bug ? Do you have the same problem ?
My mac is Macbook Pro (2011 Later)
Thanks

I had the same problem. It looks I was able to fix this using the steps below:
1. Make sure you have a current backup, such as a Time Machine backup!
2. Go into Dashboard and close the World Clock widget(s).
3. Rename or trash the file:
~/Library/Preferences/widget-com.apple.widget.worldclock.plist
I'm not sure if it's needed but I also deleted:
~/Library/Preferences/widget-com.apple.widget.worldclock.plist.lockfile
4. Open Terminal and type the following command (case-sensitive): killall Dock
See if that works.

World Clock Widget appears on my Desktop

My world clock widget appears on my desktop. I can't get it off the desktop. It should be apprearing with the rest of the widgets when I call for the widget's screen. I have rebooted my machine...still there. I went into the widget's window tried to X it and I can't.
Help...
Thanks, =bill

Glad it worked.
By default widgets do not work on the desktop. Some utilities allow you to do that, alternatively Terminal voodoo can be used.
*defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES*
Turns widget on desktop on,
*defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode NO*
off.

World clocks have wrong hour

The world clocks are showing the wrong hour.
This is my situation:
* I live in Belgium, which is GMT+1
* I have selected GMT+1 at Settings > Date & time > Time Zone
* I have entered the correct hour
* Because of Daylight savings time, the hour changed recently: 2AM became 1AM
* I changed the hour accordingly, and noticed that the "world clocks" (Extras > Clocks) aren't showing the correct hour. Right now it should be 19:17 and it's displaying 20:17 for Brussels, Belgium.
I'm not sure if it was displaying correctly before the Daylight savings time.
Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same issue with my Classic, especially in cities that are not affected by DST.
Unfortunately the ipod does not feature editing the time yourself. Edit for the developers just mean picking up another city, nothing else.

World Clock Problems

My girlfriend's iPhone has been acting up since we got it. She can't add any cities to the world clock. We'll type in something, and press on the city, and nothing. It just goes back to the world clock screen and says "No World Clocks". We've even gone to the Apple Store and the guy at the genius bar said that he's never seen it, and that hopefully the update would fix it. It hasn't.
Has anyone else run into this problem and figured out a way to fix it.
Thanks

I had the same issue with my 8GB iPhone running 1.0.2. Couldn't add any world clocks (showed me lists of cities but when I select one it doesn't add it) and there was no default (there should be a single default - Cupertine CA) - just a message stating No World Clocks.
The first thing I tried was a full restore (but first, using iTunes preferences, I deleted my old iPhone backup and did a resync to force a current iPhone backup to be made). After the restore, I did not allow the backup to be restored initially because I wanted to test the world clock feature on a clean slate. Unfortunately, it still didn't work (same behavior). Then I did allow the back to restore and still no world clocks. At this point, I called Apple and got support to help - they recommended going to the iPhone Settings menu and choosing to Reset the iPhone settings from there. Voila' - fixed the problem - now I can add world clocks. I guess if you're experiencing this problem, the first thing to try might be to use the iPhone Settings->General->Reset feature.
Good Luck.
