Set date and time for all macs in the network

Hi,
I need to set the time and date for all of our Macs in the network, I have tried to have a look at Workgroup manager but I can not see anything.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Once the ntp setting is initially loaded, it should not need to be changed.  But you know that, of course.
If you're looking to automate ntp configuration as part of system imaging (SIU, InstaDMG, etc) and client set-up, then that's certainly possible; that sort of discussion is regular fodder on the Mac Enterprise mailing list.  (Check the archives over there for some interesting discussions.)  Here are some related discussions that might interest you, too:

Also see man systemsetup for some details.
$ /usr/sbin/systemsetup -getnetworktimeserver
Network Time Server: time.apple.com
$
And here's a slightly-dated intro to client management.

  • Adjust Date and time for all Photos in an event?

    Would some one tell me how to adjust the date and time for all photos in an event. For some reason when I change the date, it only changes the first photo in the event and I am left with a range of dates in the event, but I would rather they all have the same date in the event. Any thoughts or ideas?

    How are you selecting the photos and changing them? How much of a change are you trying to make? A total change of date and time or just a delta change either plus or minus?
    Using the Photos->Adjust Date and Time... menu option will apply the time/date difference to all of the photos in the Event if you click on the Event icon in the Photos mode or the Event mode.

  • HT1595 My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    My apple tv stuck at setting date and time. Also when connecting yo network doesn't ask for network password

    I just went through this last night. (Aug 15, 2013)
    What I did to get back up and running. This is not the first time I have lost the network connection with my Apple TV 3
    Products effected: Apple TV 3 and Home Sharing (My Apple TV 1 was not effected)
    Power down (unplug) the Apple TV and power down your router ( in my case, it is a FIOS router, flipping the on/off works fine).
    Power both items back up.
    At this point, I usually can reenter my Apple ID and PW. and reconnect Home Sharing.  But for some reason I was unable to reconnect last night but was able to get it reconnected in the morning. I was jut to tired to deal with it last night.
    A new issue that is was able to fix after a good nights sleep.
    I did figure out, (after trying to reenter my ID and PW many times and having it tell me that my ID and PW was wrong), that when using the Apple TV on screen keypad to type in the user ID. DO NOT use the ".com" keypad button. Instead type out each character for .com. ( or what ever ending you use for your ID account.)
    Once I typed out my full ID and PW. everything is back to 100%

  • Reminder app not working correctly, issue started around Sept. 1,2014. Will not allow me to set date and time for a reminder.

    Today I noticed an issue with my Reminder app on my IPhone 5s. Using OS 7.1.2. I called Apple, and the tech didn't know what he was doing and just trying different things.The reminder app will not let me set a date and time for reminder. Finally he escalated the call to a senior advisor who was rude, arrogant and unprofessional. He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true, the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014. Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use and have to transfer all my reminders manually from the other part of the app. The feature does exist; if I try to set a date and time for the reminder it appears for 1-2 seconds and then disappears.
    Has anyone else noticed this issue?

    He insisted the Reminder App was updated with the new update of IOS September/October 2013. Not true
    Yes, it is true.
    iOS 7 was released 18 Sep 2013. At this time, the Reminders app was updated (with most everything else).
    the issue just started about 5 days ago August 31,2014.
    Your issue just started but the app was not updated 5 days ago.
    Now there is an additional reminder line for reminder entries that I have to use
    I don’t understand what this means...
    Open Reminders, type the reminder, tap the i at the end, turn on Remind me on a day and enter the date/time.

  • Getting last login dates and times for graphical/xwindows logins?

    Hi,
    How do I get the last login date and times for users who just use the GUI (and don't launch terminals)?
    So far such logins don't seem to show up when I do "last -f /var/adm/utmpx" or for wtmpx.
    What should I be using on solaris to get the last login dates and times for all users, whether they log in on the text console, graphical console, or remotely via ssh etc?
    Thanks,
    Link.

  • HT200197 my apple tv won't pass the setting date and time screen?

    why won't my apple tv pass the setting date and time screen?

    That indicates a network issue.
    Check the DNS settings, they should be set to automatic.

  • TS4268 I changed set date and time automatically to "no" and I was able to activate iMessage. This seems contrary to all the troubleshooting discussions I've been reading.

    Is there any definitive info on this subject?

    When ATV is setting date and time, and hangs there, it usually indicate there isn't a network connection.  Is your router still working, is the Internet for all the other computers on the same network working?  Have you tried changing from WiFi connection to Ethernet or vice versa?

  • All of a sudden my ATV came up with a message stating trying to set dat and time however cannot access. Could this be due to the recent hacking of Apple or is it something new. How do I fix?

    All of a sudden my ATV came up with a message stating trying to set date and time however cannot access. Could this be due to the recent hacking of Apple or is it something new. How do I fix?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's not related to any hacking.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
        1.    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
        2.    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
        3.    Restart your router.
        4.    Reset the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings)
        5.    Restore the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Restore)

  • Set date and time

    I recently updated the apple tv .It was fine after the update although i did not use it as i was on my way out after the update.Days later when i put in on it cant seem to open itunes.reason being network time cannot be updated.i tried sighning out and now i cant sighn in.I tried reset that just brings me to a halt on screen that says activating setting date and time.Does any one know whats going on.Is the time server down ? Or something .Itune store sighn in works well in my pc ,ipad and other devices no problem.
    And i tried putting off all firewalls in router but no luck.
    Its connected wirelessly to the same router which normally works
    Any idea guys

    HI
    I have tried everything possible such as router firewall settings changing DNS servers using WIFI and ETHERNET nothing works.Waited for more updates nothing so far.The only solution is to down grade the firmware through itunes .Using now 5.0.2 works like a charm .Don't wait any longer just search apple forum for procedure and follow.Use a mac better.It takes only 5 minutes for the process.All you need is a mac or windows pc,usb cable,the type that goes behind the apple tv,(I used a blackberry bold 9900 original cable),software known as ipsw.YOU DONT NEED TO POWER THE APPLE TV WHILE DOING THIS.IT WILL LIGHT THE LED FROM PC POWER.GO TO https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4419016?start=0&tstart=0  Read procedure written by cwlown .JUST MAKE SURE FOR MAC HOLD OPTION KEY DOWN THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO THE DOWNLODED ipsw AND RUN.FOR WINDOWS HOLD SHIFT THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO Ipsw download and run.There is no neen to unzip or extract ipsw.I had a problem when using windows xp ipsw did not show up as an upgradeable firmware therefore could not run it.I did not want to waste time and used the mac instead.I think renaming the ipsw in windows could have cleared the problem.Another thing is after the downgrade itunes will say that your APPLE TV is restored to its factory defaults don't worry the job is done ,check your software on the APPLE TV THROUGH your tv LOCATED at general then about.SETTING up the ATV first connect the wifi or lan cable select location first THEN sign in.

  • Cannot get pass the "Setting date and time" screen

    Hi, I am faced with a very serious problem... someone please help!
    I bought home an Apple TV (2nd generation) for my parent overseas, but when I switched on - it got stuck on "Setting date and time" screen and cannot continue. Pressing "menu" button (or hold on for many seconds) does not work at all! I am stuck in that screen. Restart the Apple TV does not helped.
    I thought it is the issue of the remote control (maybe "menu" key has failed), so I bought another one (the aluminum model) and the same issue persists! I tested the remote control on Mac (boot up and press menu key, using Better Touch Tool... both shows the menu key is working).
    What shall I do? Thanks!

    is it connected to the internet either wired or wirelessly

  • Keychain problem and "Set date and time automatically"

    Something very strange appened to me today. I spent a few hours to get it through.
    All starts when I decided to open System Preferences and *set date and time manually* (I lost date and time because I left my PowerBook without its battery for an hour). At the next login, Leopard was no more able to access keychain's stored passwords, even if all items on Keychain Access were right there. Everytime I tried to read one item's password, a pop-up window reminded me that I had not the right to do it. As soon as I set back "date and time" on automatic (time.euro.apple.com - for me) all became normal (all iCal reminders appeared at on time) and all services started to get their passwords from the stored list.
    Sorry for my English (I'm from Italy).
    Someone got the same issue?

    That looks like the correct IP address for the Apple NTP. Not sure why your AEBS is not getting the time stamp.
    Would you mind double-checking the following setting, using the AirPort Admin Utility?
    AirPort Tab - Base Station Options: Logging/NTP
    - Set Date & Time Automatically: time.apple.com (checked)
    Is it possible that you have UDP blocked on port 123? Is your AEBS connected to another Internet router?

  • I am getting a message "setting date and time...." but nothing happens

    My Apple TV has stopped working. I start up and it says "setting date and time...." but I cannot access the internet.

    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • When attempting to format region and set date and time the busy icon appears and seems to stay like this?

    when attempting to format region and set date and time the busy icon appears and seems to stay like this?

    Click on DU's Partition tab when you have the raw drive name selected, then set it to one partition, Mac OS Extended. If it crashes or freezes, it is finding a bad block and can't write.
    In any event, if you want to use the drive, and have not zeroed it before, you should now.
    Click on Erase -> Security Options -> Zero out data. Still with the full drive selected and not any partition(s).
    Then repartition the drive if needed.
    Boot from the DVD if that doesn't work. And no, TTPro has never mapped out bad blocks let alone create partitions.
    Disk Utility in 10.4.8 is quite good, excellent in fact. No need for an alternative.
    Your eMac drive may need to touch of Disk Utility itself. FSCK from the command line, clear the caches with Applejack along with check for corrupt plists. Between Disk Utilty and Applejack (free/shareware) never had to use TechTool Pro - or at least there weren't any errors after those two got done. But if you want a good 3rd party, pick up Disk Warrior 4.
