How to fix date and time problem | MacBook Pro (UPDATED 2024)

Hey guys, I will show you how to fix the date and time problem for MacBook Pro 2020 and above.Here is the updated code to use in Terminal:
sudo rm /var/db/timed/com.apple.timed.plist
After this, input your password. The date and time should not fix after this is completed (That is OK!).
Next, You want to hit RESTART on your MacBook.
Finally, when your MacBook reboots, your date and time error should be fixed.
This fixed has worked for me, and I've had no issues ever since. Be sure to like, and share this video so that others can see it (many are affected by this).
Thanks a lot !

First press command + space then type “terminal” then type in the code, you’re welcome 😊

Thanks

[@jonathonmoores9137]

Thanks ridicolous that he didnt explain how to do that

[@DrFrunJungler]

Excellent, thank you for this.

[@infloencer1537]

As a person who somehow has no idea about computers and is always totally overwhelmed when it comes to something like this, I thank you from the bottom of my heart🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@angeldiaz5271]

Is the password your iCloud pw

[@Nick-ep4rs]

Crazy how we all got this error. Thanks for the video 👍🏻

[@mofresh_]

You’re welcome! There is a bug that Apple hasn’t addressed publicly with its new update

[@masbass1011]

There were a few assumptions he made. Some people have no idea what Terminal is. Bring up Spotlight (command + spacebar) type Terminal. Another important factor after "sudo" hit spacebar after "rm" hit spacebar continue code as written. He did say that. It passed by kind of fast. T least for me. This did work. Thank you @mofresh for posting.

Will this work for Mac OS X version 10.7.5 ?

It should be able to. It’s a harmless command and will not degrade any function on your computer if you try it

Will try tomorrow 👍
