Time Machine couldn't complete this backup .... The system date and time is incorrect

I have tried every possible way but it doesn't work.  Anyone know how to fix this issue please help me

First, open the Date & Time preference pane and check that the system clock is accurate, including the year. If it is, continue.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
sudo touch /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting. You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Confirm. You don't need to post the warning.
If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Log in as one and start over.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

  • Extracting Time without using the System Date and Time

    Hi, can I know how to process a task at this particular time eg. 6PM everyday without using the System Date and Time..
    Do I need to use a Timer to get this done or is there any other solution to do this? Can give me a few hints? Thanks in advance =D

    You could use a timer...assuming you had some good reference point when you started so you would know that from your starting point it's now 6pm.
    I thought I saw you asked this question once already...and you were given a similar answer....I think by Sylviae?

  • How to set the system date and time in LabVIEW 6i?

    Not natively that I know of. You could use a LabVIEW DLL call to link
    to a Win32 API call which sets the date and time. You would need to
    have privileges to do it.

  • All the system dates are wrong

    Macbook pro 15. Lion. 10.7.2 - problem since new this year.
    I have aired this with support on the phone. I got an arranged call back from India? but he couldn't help and I lost the connection - nothing since.  All the system dates and email dates etc show as the 5th of the current month!  Strangely, the LIST of emails in the mailbox shows the correct date, but when I open an email it shows the 5th of the month!  Furthermore, when I send an email, it too shows the 5th of the month.  Bizarre! I don't think this is new to the community but I can't find this specific problem anywhere. 

    1) Make sure the system Date & Time is correct, and the location/Time Zone is correct
    System Preferences > Date & Time
    That will probably not be the problem, but you need to make sure there are no issues there.
    2) Next, open
    System Preferences > Languages and Texts > Format pane ...
    and reselect a standard Date and Time FORMAT.

    System.currentTimeMillis() will give you the current

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the search box.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.

    It is usually just the normal poor networking between Mountain Lion and TC.. please restart your whole network in order.. from off.. modem.. TC.. clients. 2min gap between each.
    If you need further help get the actual error message. Pondini has a great listing of the main errors. Yours is probably C12 or C17..
