Hi there beautiful people.

I just updated my Zorin from 6 to 7 yesterday and works fine until update manager pops out.
I installed the update and everything was fine except for the two Date&Time icon under System Settings > System.

Here is the screenshot.

System Settings
How can I remove this old one.
SS1Window.png
First Date&Time before the update

I want to retain this new one.
SS2nd window.png
Second Date&Time after the update

Now I am having a hard time to show User Accounts due to limited screen. I don't want to start from scratch by installing it again on my laptop.

Thank you so much for the help guys. Mabuhay!!!

If I remember well, this package is called gnome-control-center. At least for 12.04. Hope it is the same for 13.04.

Try this. In terminal:
Code:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-control-center


Reboot and see if that helped.

Thanks for your help. It didn't work. I guess I need to reinstall and try not to update for the mean time.

Hi,

if you want full user control, install the package "gnome-system-tools" and use that to control users and groups!:

Code:
sudo apt-get install gnome-system-tools

Time settings in Ubuntu 13.04 are reliant on your location, you must restart or log back in to make the changes work as they don't happen straight away!?. Do you have a different keyboard to your system language or locale?.

Regards Wolfman :D

In order to get rid of the Date & Time.


Open the Terminal and run : sudo gedit


When the text editor opens click "Open" and go to File System (in the left pane) > usr > share > applications > gnome-datetime-panel.desktop .


Delete the "GNOME" writing in this line: OnlyShowIn=GNOME;


Press save

Your Done !!!! :D :D
