Clock Wrong on my Mac AGAIN

[Deleted member 329]

hello

i was just wondering if any you mac kids also had the same prob as me,
my clock keeps telling me its an hour ahead of what it actually should be
for example now its 1934... my mac says 2034....
this has led to me going to bed very early! woops.

i change it to the correct time then after a ccouple of days it will starting doing it again, most annoying.

Do you have the option selected to automatically update the time (in the system preferences panel)

I'm guessing you've either got the wrong time zone selected, and it's trying to correct the time or you have selected the us apple server to syncronise the time instead of the euro server

Only time I had this problem was with bootcamp

yeah this sometimes happens if you boot into windows as well. happened to me with linux, and my mate with osx

Only ever happens to me after booting into OSX from bootcamp.

Only ever happens to me after booting into OSX from bootcamp.

/wild speculation

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that Windows likes to keep local system time while Unix-like systems like OS X keep UTC then convert to local in software?

i am glad it not just me! it does seem to be a boot camp glitch.. after restarting from bootcamp.
doesn't do it all time time tho..

i am sure it will get sorted for the final release
