Change the date settings - MAC

Your Mac has the ability to automatically set the correct date and time, or you can choose to set these manually. You can also decide how you want the time and date to display on your Mac. Here's how to set these preferences. 

Open "System Preferences" and click "Date & Time" to display the preferences. Click the "Date & Time" tab. If you always want your Mac to set the date and time automatically, select the "Set Date & Time automatically" checkbox, choose your location from the pop-up menu to the right, and skip to step 7. A network connect is required.

To set things manually, or if you don't have a network connection, deselect the "Set Date & Time automatically" checkbox.
 
To manually set the date, click on the month, day, or year in the field above the calendar to select it,. Either use the up or down arrows to change the value, or type in the information. Or, click on the correct date in the calendar graphic, to change the month use the left and right arrows.

To set the time, click on the hour, minute, seconds, or AM/PM in the field above the clock to select it. Either use the up or down arrows to change the value, or type in the information. Or, click and drag the hands on the clock graphic to the correct time.

Click the "Time Zone" tab and either click your approximate location on the map or choose the city closest to you from the "Closest City" pop-up menu.
