I've upgraded to 13.10 and now I don't have the standard menu clock, which I need for work.



I checked and 'indicator-datetime' is installed. I even uninstalled/reinstalled that applet with no luck.



Also my "clock" settings under System Preferences are all disabled. I can't change anything.



Does anyone know how I can get the old menu clock back?



Alternatively is there another menu clock app I can download?



Edit 1



Thanks for the responses




  1. I've restarted several times and that didn't fix the issue.


  2. I just ran the 13.10 update today. But I ran it again a few minutes ago. I got about 200KB in random updates. The issue is still present after a reboot.


  3. # apt-cache policy indicator-datetime
    indicator-datetime:
    Installed: 13.10.0+13.10.20131016.2-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 13.10.0+13.10.20131016.2-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
    *** 13.10.0+13.10.20131016.2-0ubuntu1 0
    500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main amd64 Packages

I believe the issue is related to 'rarings' changing the systray somehow...

Or systray disappeared, although I haven't got that solution to work yet.



Edit 3



Because of a suggestion from RolandiXor I've check the binaries. My system is missing 'libical.so.0' but it has 'libical.so.1'.



ldd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-datetime-service
libical.so.0 => not found


Does anyone know how to get the libical.so.0 binary that the datetime service needs but doesn't install?

There's a bug report for that in Launchpad.



Quick fix:

Open terminal (ctrl + alt + T) and type



killall unity-panel-service
