TIme and Date keep changoing

I am running the New 21.5 iMac with 10.6.1 and bootcamp with windows 7. My time and date keep changing, going forward 2-3 days and changing from AM to PM. This happens when I boot into Windows 7 or put it to sleep. I tried setting it to use the Apple NTP server and setting it manually, but neither keep it correct. Also, this is another issue, the display drivers do not offer the highest or correct resolution in Windows 7, it only shows a generic VGA display adapter in device manager.
TIA for any help!

Hello d:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
I do not use Windows on my Macs (and have no intention of doing so). Having said that, there is a forum for people who do here:

  • Time and Date keeps changing

    Every time I connect my ipod touch 2.1.1 the date and time keeps changing. is it a glitch? i also tried restoring my ipod but it didnt help, so please fix this

    Thanks. This solves the time and date issue. But I still have a problem when I do the following: Settings>General>Time & Date, then the main screen (with all of the icons) is displayed, I never see the time, date screen, it goes back after about 1 second to main screen The same thing happens when I do the following: Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>I then scroll to the bottom of the page and I get the main page again. I never get to touch on contacts or calendar, only mail. Please help.

  • IPhone 4S time and date keeps resetting, despite being set to automatically do so.

    After having recently upgraded my iOS to 7.0.4, my Verizon iPhone 4S has started to re-set the time and date every now and then at random. It does this, despite me having my Settings set to automatically set the date and time based on my location. I have called Verizon about this and all they had me do was to reset my network connections and reset my roaming capabilities...and despite me doing that this morning, the time re-set itself again this afternoon. I have found the only solution has been for me to power off my phone completely and then once on again, set the phone either into Airplane mode for a second - or to just wait until the Verizon signal switches the phone back to being the correct time and date on its own. I have also found that these issues have started to affect my ability to send and receive iMessages, as well. For some reason, when the date/time re-sets, the iMessage option becomes un-selected and I have to manually go back and turn that functionality back on. Anyone else having these same issues? It's incredibly frustrating and I'm not sure what else I can do save for constantly hard, re-starting my iPhone everytime I notice the time and date is out of whack. Also it's hard for me to tell if this is an Apple hardware issue/bug that just needs to be fixed - or something to do with Verizon. Any tips/info would be appreciated.

    Try setting your time to manual. This way, the iPhone is the one controlling the time. As you correctly understand, when it is on auto, it is controlled by Verizon and their individual towers. If after setting the time to manual it works, then I would say it isn't a phone issue, but a Verizon one. Do you frequent the same area when this occurs? It could very well be an issue with a particular tower in your area and Verizon would need to check that. If the time goes off again while on manual, then it could be the phone. User troubleshooting is restart, reset, restore from backup and restore as new. Try each in order until the problem is fixed. If it cannot be, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar at Apple to have the phone looked at for hardware issues.

  • EMate 300 Time and Date keeps Resetting

    I got an eMate 300 for Christmas 2013, and a problem I've come to notice is that when I set the time and date, and then tap the mini clock in the corner to re-open the clock, it's either corrupted, or it is reset to default. Is this the memory, or is it a bug? My documents have timestamps on them, and I don't want them to get scrambled up. Thank you in advance.

    Very few people have eMates anymore.   You might find the answer on http://www.lowendmac.com/
    or http://www.pda-soft.de/en/hardware/emate/disassembly/disassembly.html
    You might want to e-mail them to find out if a PRAM battery exists for it.

  • The time and date keeps unlocking, why wont it stay locked?

    everytime i start my computer the date and time has changed to some crazy past date lite 1969. I fix and lock it and when i shutdown and return it has unlocked and changed again. How do I keep it locked.

    PowerBooks, with a couple of minor exceptions, have a clock/PRAM backup battery inside, usually a Li-Ion rechargeable battery that can last nearly ten years or which can punk out after five years or so, depending on the luck of the draw.  When the clock comes up set to baseline (midnight GMT January 1, 1970) repeatedly, that is a dead giveaway that the backup battery is kaput.  That being said, the main battery should hold things up for quite a while, unless it is tanking as well.  (More on that below.)  There are relatively easy fixes for the problem that we can point you to.
    What is the specific PowerBook model giving you this problem?  Screen size, processor speed and machine model.  Launch System Profiler in your Utilities folder in the Applications folder.  You should see a Hardware Overview like this in Tiger:
    Hardware Overview:
      Machine Name:          PowerBook G4 15"
      Machine Model:          PowerBook3,5
      CPU Type:          PowerPC G4  (3.3)
      Number Of CPUs:          1
      CPU Speed:          1 GHz
      L2 Cache (per CPU):          256 KB
      L3 Cache (per CPU):          1 MB
      Memory:          1 GB
      Bus Speed:          133 MHz
      Boot ROM Version:          4.5.3f2
    Copy and paste that into your reply,  Do not include the Serial Number for the machine.  Then click the Power line under Hardware in System Profiler and copy the battery and charger information there into your reply.  That should give us some information about your main battery as well.  It should look something like this:
    Battery Information:
      Battery Installed:          Yes
      First low level warning:          No
      Full Charge Capacity (mAh):          5527
      Remaining Capacity (mAh):          5405
      Amperage (mA):          0
      Voltage (mV):          16553
      Cycle Count:          0
    AC Charger Information:
      AC Charger (Watts):          65
      Connected:          Yes
      Charging:          No

  • Time and date keep changing

    It started happening a week or so ago. Every time I boot the time is changed. I set the date from the bios but arch shows the time wrong. Also because of this I sometimes get problems during bootup because the partition looks like it was last mounted in the future. Can anyone help me out?

    Aside from possible hardware failure, automatic time adjust could be wrong. Try:
    cat /var/lib/hwclock/adjtime
    0.026639 1255063716 0.000000
    1255063716
    UTC
    The first field should be a rather low value. If not, delete /var/lib/hwclock/adjtime and reboot.
    If this does not help, make sure your hardware clock is set right (see: man hwclock). Make sure your current system time displays right and then issue (as root):
    hwclock --systohc
    Finally (or beforemost) check the HARDWARECLOCK setting in /etc/rc.conf. Does it match your system (either "UTC" or "localtime")?
    BTW: This problem comes up often. Just search the forum.

  • HT200197 It doesn´t let me set up time and date. It keeps searching endlessly. Therefore I am not able to use appletv

    t doesn´t let me set up time and date. It keeps searching endlessly. Therefore I can´t use appletv

    That means it is having trouble connecting to the network.
    Make sure location is set correctly. DNS should be set to automatic. Ensure router is up to date. If on wifi try ethernet. Reboot ATV and router.

  • How do I keep the time and date stamp of my photo when exporting from iphoto

    Hi,
    I notice the time and date stamp changed when I exported the photos from iPhoto 11 to a external HDD.
    When I looked at the information about the exported photos on my external HDD the time and date changed to the time and date of when I exported the photos form iPhoto instead of keeping the time and date information of when the photo was taken as it appears in iPhoto.
    I thought the time and date stamp is in the meta data of the photo file and can't be changed, am I correct?
    Thanks,

    Kyzelios,
    How can view the meta data from "finder" or do I need a 3rd party app?
    "Get info" function only gives me the creation date which is the export date and time.

  • TS3274 ipad is locked but it keeps repeating time and date?

    Hi,
    My ipad air is locked but the voice says the time and date and camera infor. when touched?

    Thanks King_P, but I tried all that last night but no avail.
    Each time I press the 'Restore ipad' button, it comes up with the message to say my ipad software is up to date and itunes will check for an update the next day.
    Then it comes up with the message, itunes could not connect to the ipad 'ipad' because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the ipad before it can be used with itunes. (This is like a catch 22 situation whereby I cannot perform this action until I restore, but it will not allow me to restore....arrrrrrgh)
    Also, After pressing the Restore button, it comes up with the message 'The ipad software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network connection is active.' But there is nothing wrong with my connection.
    Also it comes up with another error message, 'itunes could not connect to this iphone (even though it is an ipad). An unknown error occured (OxE8000084).
    Other messages are 'We could not complete your itunes stores request, An unknown errror occured (Ox80092013)....................arrrrgh
    Off to work and will try anything later

  • Time and date settings change when phone is powered down (not shut off)..

    I recently installed the iOS 8 update and immediately noticed that the time and date settings would change when I powered down my iPhone. I did not turn off my phone, only clicked the button to power down or save power. I have tried all the fixes, suggestions, etc., but I am still having issues. In the power down state, I am able to receive phone calls or texts but when I go into my phone, the time and date will be off. It stops from the moment I click the button to power down the phone. Please don't get this confused with turning off the phone completely. This happens when I click the button for power down or power save, however it is described.
    So, how do I fix it? Is the app/software for the clock the problem? Is the battery distribution the problem? For some reason, in power down mode, the clock is not receiving constant power in order to keep accurate time. It stops the moment I click the button.  Any suggestions? fixes, etc. I could try. Apple support techs were absolutely no help what-so-ever.

    This sounds exactly like what is going on with my phone, http://www.idownloadblog.com/2012/10/19/iphone-5-date-time-glitch/

  • Lumia 620 time and date

    why does my 620 keep changing the time and date at random times of the day ?

    Hi, vicki1979. Have you tried to perform basic troubleshooting steps like rebooting your phone or making sure that your phone's software is up-to-date?
    http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/wp8-software-update/
    If the issue remains, you can try to reset the phone. However, we recommend creating a backup file to avoid any data loss:
    Settings > About > reset.
    Let us know the outcome.

  • Time and date problems

    Since I updated my iTouch to v 2.0, it's been having problems keeping the date and time. It usually reverts to 7 days ago and about 6 hours earlier. I had no problems when using v 1.1.4
    Has anyone else had these problems?

    In many cases, this occurs when you connect your iPod to the computer when iTunes has an incorrect backup date. I recently experienced this issue as well, and was able to fix it with little difficulty. Here's what I did.
    1. Disconnect your iPod from the computer.
    2. Make sure that the time and date on your computer is correct.
    3a. In iTunes, go to Edit => Preferences => Syncing.
    3b. You should see your device listed there, along with that same $#%& incorrect date and time. Select it and press "Remove Backup".
    4. Close out of and reopen iTunes.
    5. Reconnect your iPod. It will create a new backup to replace the one you just deleted, with the (hopefully) correct date and time, and your iPod's date and time will change to mirror that of your computer's.
    I hope that helps!
