Set The Clock

I am having trouble getting the clock to keep the right time. I finally got it to Central Time but can't get to show pm instead of am.

Sorry for the Forest Gump question

Right click on clock select Change Date and Time (enter root password) below the Location panel select change for time and input the correct time. Since it is 24 clock enter 24.00-11.59 for AM. 12.00-23.59 for PM.

Now to set regular time setup display choose Date and Time Format
and on the Tab for date and time configure all the settings you like to view. By the way you do not need to accept the defaults you can enter the code how you like to see things.
Example 2-9-2007 would correspond to mM-dD-YYYY that is how we generally like it the states and its not one in the drop down list.

Good luck! B)
