How long should setting time and dates take?

I have hooked up my apple tv, and it is still "setting time and date" after 2 hours.
How long should it take?

You have a network problme. ATV is not able to connect to the internet, so it is not able to set it's date and time.

HT202157 How can I set time and date in the Apple TV??? This step doesn't let me go on with installing itunes!

The area is set for San Juan, PR, but it doesn't recognize the date and time.

This indicates a network issue. Ensure DNS settings are set to Automatic and the regional settings are correct.

HT5262 How long should the icloud back up take?

How long should the iCloud back up take? I only have 4gb of storage but it has taken almost an hour already with approximately 2 hours remaining.

Hi RMaskery14,
If you are concerned about the time your iCloud backup is taking, you may find the following article helpful:
My backup is taking a long time to finish.
Backing up and restoring takes time, especially if you have a lot of data or a slow connection. Depending on the size of your backup and the speed of your network, you may need more time than expected to complete the process. Using a reliable connection when backing up your device is highly recommended.

Try:

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

KDE: Setting time and date automatically

I've never been able to set the time and date automatically in KDE time settings. When I check the "Set time and date automatically" and authenticate myself, I always get the error message "Unable to contact time server: .". I'm wondering whether it's an upstream bug or I'm missing some required package? Does it work for you?

And then after it installed I restarted my computer and i still can't change the time to London and am still getting the "Unable to contact time server" error. Am i misinterpreting this or what? Could somone please explain to me in simple terms how to make the KDE clock show London time?
Have you set ntp correctly?
Also go to http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html you'll have all the answers there.
in short try this:
ntpq -p
If nothing happens you did something wrong, if it does, then it already works just remove ntpd or openntpd from daemon array.

How to get current time and date??

How to get current time and date from my PC time and date to the java application??
i use java.util.* package but got error, that is:
- java.util.* and java.sql.* class are match
- abstract class cannot be instantiated
so what can i do, pls guide...thanks...

There is a method in the System class that will return the current system time. You could also instantiate a Date, Time, Timestamp, or Calendar object, all of which get created with the system time by default.
Don't import *. Import the specific classes you need.
Next time, post the actual text of the exceptions/compile errors. If you make people guess, most just won't bother.

Unable to set time and date

im trying to set up my apple tv just after ive updated to the latest version, but it wont pass the setting time and date screen
what can i do?
HELP!

Hello john.george,
You may need to verify that TCP port 123 is open and available for use on your router.
TCP port 123 is used to communicate with a network time server.

If you can view the main home screen, try selecting "settings" on the far right, then choose recent at the bottom. If not, try just unplugging power for a few minutes, then plug in and try again. Keep in mind you'll need a wireless connection and there may be several updates. Hope this helps-

Thanks for any help.

How long is a piece of string?
Essentially it should not take too long (in my experience 20 minutes max from start to finish) although there are many, many factors that can affect the time taken to download and install the upgrade. Namely the reliability of your broadband connection, reliability of your router/firewall; reliability of the wireless connection (assuming you connect to your router wirelessly); downstream bandwidth supplied to your location by your ISP; the 'health' of your iMac; how much disk space for example? This is not an exhaustive list by any means.
If it's any help I would try the wired connection (ethernet) rather than wireless, I would log into your router's interface and double-check it's maintaining a good connection - if necessary reboot the router and try the upgrade again. Try and make sure there's only you using it at the time you do the upgrade.

How to get System Time and Date?

Hi, may i know how do i get the System's current Time and Date?? And i need to format them into 2 separate String, that's Time is a String, Date is another String. Pls guide me. Thanks a lot!

What's the problem? The previous example was pretty clear. Just adapt it to your purposes...
        Date currentDateAndTime = new Date();
        SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
        SimpleDateFormat timeFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
        System.out.println(dateFormat.format(currentDateAndTime));
        System.out.println(timeFormat.format(currentDateAndTime));

Dear Mr.Craig,
Thanx a lot. We are running SRM 5.0 (RAMP - Implementation).
My initial requirement is to write a server-side script to display server date and time. Could you give more inside on how to achieve it?

Perhaps that will help.
