Loosing time and date

My macbook suddently looses time and date - it switses to year 2000.
Would a reset of PRAM be a solution? Or.....????

Welcome to the Discussions!
That would be normal since what you are really doing is resetting the PMU.

IPad 2 keeps on loosing time and date

Hi
I keep on having to reset my time and date under the settings tab. I have set it for the correct time zone. It is especially noticeable when I turn iPad off.

Do you have
Settings > Date and Time > Set Automatically set to On?

Loosing Time and Date Setting

Well hello altogether. I couldn't find an anwser to my question. Every time I'm cleaning my powerbook I take out the AC and the Battery avoiding to start the PB (maybe 2 minutes). When I start the PB again after putting the Battery and the AC back in, the time and date settings set back to 1970...
As far as I know, it was not like that from the very beginning.
The PB and the Battery are about one year old.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Peter

Clock looses time and date, Clock looses time and date

Clock losses time & date when battery dies whats my problem?

Well, probably the reason that would happen is that when the iPod is asleep, a tiny bit of the battery keeps the clock alive. If it is completely deprived of all power, that it wouldn't be able to keep that small process going. Just make sure to not let the battery die entirely, and it should be fine. I usually keep my iPod plugged in, but if I can't, I stop using it when I get the 20% battery warning. If you put it to sleep when you get this alert, there is plenty of juice to keep the clock alive in the background for quite a while.

How do i reset time and date on my itouch

how do I reset time and date on my itouch?

Go to Settings>General>International and make sure that Calendar is set to Gregorian.
Bext
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
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:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

RE: Time and Date Changed by itself

The date and time will change to the wrong one automatically especially after the batt died. This repeated itself regardless on how many times i readjust the time and date to the right one. Someone please help me.

I had the same problem today. I also have the iPod 4g, no problems up until today. First make sure you calender is set to "Gregorian, you can do this by going to Settings --> General --> International, and you will see the calender options, mark Gregorian. Still didn't work? Try this: I experimented a little, and what i did was: First, I went to Settings --> General --> Date and Time --> Set Date & Time (before doing this make sure you're in the correct time zone) and here you can change the time and date. But, if it changes automatically, go to the date, and you may have the same problem here, but here's what i did. I couldn't change the month, or day, but i could change the year. Change the year to 2011, and then all the other options should come up. Hope this helped!

I want to take my apple tv from my home in Canada and us it at the Cabin in the States, but can't seem to get it to set up in the states? It just keeps asking for time and date over and over.

We just bought apple tv for our home in Canada, we also want to use it at our Cabin in Montana. We have internet and can get netflix etc on the Macbook, but don't seem to be able to hook up the Apple TV, it just keeps asking for the Time and Date over and over. Anyone know what we are doing wrong?

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));

How to get system time and date with PHP

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?
Regards,
Deva.

Perhaps that will help.
[code]
<html>
<h1>Access System time and date</h1>
<?
     // saprfc-class-library
     require_once("saprfc.php");
     $sap = new saprfc(array(
   "logindata"=>array(
   "ASHOST"=>"localhost"          // application server
   ,"SYSNR"=>"00"                    // system number

I am trying to find an app that will track the usage on my iphone with times and dates to see what was accessed on my phone when I was away from it and what if anything was done eg deleted messages viewed facebook etc?

Hi! I am trying to find an app that with track everything that is done on my phone with times and dates? im not really woried about call usage and texts sent I need it to view what has been done - for example:
Messages received
Messages deleted
Facebook viewed
Messages viewed
Internet viewed and what?
I just have an issue with someone using my phone - I used to track this through double clicking the home button and roughly knowing in what order I had been on things but they have sussed this one!
Thank you!!

No way to do that on a non-jailbroken iPhone. Why don't you just passcode protect your phone? That way no one but you can use it...unless they know your passcode.

TS3297 when I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' . My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please?

When I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' . My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please? I have restored my ipod to factory settings and rest it.

I also tried moving the date forward by a year and then moving it back to normal and it still doesn't work. i can't find an automatic update of time zones on my itouch to turn this off.

Printing current time and date on a pdf document

I wish for a pdf document to print the current time and date in the same place at the foot of each page, to the following format:
Aug 04 2009, 5:11 pm.
How do I do this please? Annoyingly I have managed it in the past, but when I open up my old documents and paste the relevant field into my new document, it either prints the old date/time or else prints the present date/time, but then doesn't refresh the next time I try to print - ie it stays at one date/time.
I'd like to start again from scratch so that I have a better idea of how it works!!
Regards
Tony

Eureka!
I now have the answer, and hopefully this will help anybody else with a similar problem.
In Acrobat:
Create a text field and place it in the chosen place on the pdf form. Label it "datebox" in the General tab of Text Field Properties, and apply your character styles in the Appearance tab.
Under the "Advanced" menu, go to "Document Processing" and then "Set Document Actions"
Click on "Document Will Print" and then hit the "Edit" button. In the "JavaScript Editor" paste the following:
var myfield=getField("datebox");
var date=new Date();
date=util.printd("mmm dd yyyy, h:MM tt", date);
myfield.value=date;
Hit OK.
You have now given the instruction that whenever you print, the field named "datebox" will print the current time and date in the following format:
Aug 05 2009, 9.37 am

Why is my macpro reseted time and date?

Ok,eventually my macpro reseted his date and time to something about 2001... The point is,that i bought this laptop from a friend few months ago, and i even forgot to ask for a login password,and after that and didnt even consider reseting users. The problem with the time and date change,came another problem,i cant even use safari regulary,on sites such is facebook,or even apple .com,without getting a verification security verisign,without blocking the site that i am trying to get in to. Only way is to "trust" that site is manually sign it as "trusted" with your login and a password from your mac. Which i dont know,even my friend dont know the password,the one that i bought it from. Just to make some things straight,its not stolen,i bought it from an original owner,no matter how awkward this situation looks like. Thanks in advance for a any ideas.

Hi all
I have the same problem. When I put the touch to sleep, it seams that during the sleep phase, the time stands still and after power it on again, the time & date is reseted to the default settings.
Hope someone have an idea or a solution for this problem.
Cheers, istvan72

My gradson got ahold of my grandaughters IPod touch and I no longer have a settings button. The time and date on this is wrong. How can I fix this problem.

I need help... I no longer have all of the buttons on my IPod touch screen. My grandson got a hold of it and boom.. The time and date is wrong also, and I have no access to fix this problem. There is no settings button.
Any help would be appreciated.

Assuming that by buttons your mean the icons for various apps are missing, use the Spotlight search feature (double click the Home button and go all the way to the left past the music controls) and search for: Settings. Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Screen layout and also correct the time inthe Genera settings.
The Setting app can't be deleted or hidden via Restrictions.
