Synchronize Time Windows 7 With Domain Controller

Antivirus, Updated: Yes, On-Demand Scanner: Enabled Hello, I am unable to update my internet time I keep getting the error message that says "An error occurred while Windows was synchronizing with time-a.nist.gov." I tried synchronizing with time-a.nist.gov, time.nist.gov, and time.windows.com -- I guess these are the default Internet time servers. There is also an error message in https://forums.techguy.org/threads/solved-unable-to-synchronize-with-internet-time-server.1121852/ the Event log, I will paste a copy of the Event Viewer error message below. Event Type: Error Event Source: W32Time Event Category: None Event ID: 29 Date: 3/12/2014 Time: 8:43:04 PM User: N/A Computer: Description: The time provider NtpClient is configured to acquire time from one or more time sources, however none of the sources are currently accessible. No attempt to contact a source will be made for 14 minutes. NtpClient has no source of accurate time. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. I tried doing a system restore to an earlier point when I was able to update the internet date/time, but that did not resolve the issue, I am still unable to update internet date and time. I know that Microsoft will end support for XP on April 8, but I will be using this until then. Please help me with this issue, thank you!! psylock, Mar 13, 2014 #1 Sponsor cwwozniak Chuck Trusted Advisor Joined: Nov 28, 2005 Messages: 51,832 psylock said: ↑ I tried synchronizing with ... time.nist.gov ...Click to expand...

This usually happens with the system time so often I have to synchronize it manually with any suggested server I can an error occurred see in the dropdown options (the first one, time.windows.com usually fails though). This has always done the trick. Except this time none of the options work, I am getting either a plain error message or a timed out type error. I checked the time service (ran services.msc and looked for it) and it is on. Restarted it anyway and the problem persists. Although I have internet connection (checked with ping command), I can't browse the internet because I guess modern browsers block connection attempts if the system time is not synchronized. Well and not just the browsers actually, it's like if I had no internet connection aside from the ping command. Edit: This might not have anything to do with the situation. But I was wondering if the machine clock in the motherboard could affect the issue (I guess?) so I started up my computer with Ubuntu instead and the time was perfectly fine. windows-7 windows sync time clock share|improve this question edited Sep 22 '15 at 10:19 asked Sep 22 '15 at 9:54 dabadaba 1137 1 Did you try setting the date and time manually and then syncing? –DavidPostill Sep 22 '15 at 11:22 Not sure of on Windows but on Linux time won't sync if i
the systray, select the third tab which is labeled 'Internet Time', and try the 'Update Now' tab.You will get the "An error occurred while Windows was synchronizing with time.windows.com" message. Try a different server, then 'update now'. Still get the error?I did a little research, and found this long forum post about how this is broken everywhere --FYI To Microsoft: Windows Time Synchronization Completely Broken (Vista, 2003, XP are all broken), which contained these instructions, which worked for me:We simply instruct them "to click on the time icon on the desktop, then click the Internet Time tab, and then copy the following blue text only - tick.usno.navy.mil - and next paste it in the Server: Field, then click on Apply, then Update Now and finally OK. Done, no more error messages. Ok, isn't that what I did? No. (blogger fonts are whack when you paste text in from a webkit browser... I'm going with it). What's missing? What did I do differently?APPLY.This is genius! After you change the value, you have to click apply to tell microsoft windows you changed it. What should be a obvious intuitive interface is subtly subverted. You change the value to X, and click update now. Doesn't it use that value? It says, "error connecting to X" but it doesn't use that value? Not til you click Apply! Why don't that have another button that says "ok, I clicked that button" ?This is a cash cow for microsoft! How many people have called and been charged $59 for this? Whoever thought it up surely got a lot of stock options and probably a promotion to VP, or a special position where they can apply this feature to other parts of the system (send in your examples). An MBA student could do a thesis on this...Well, I tested on 3 2003 Servers which had this problem, but the XP system actually worked [but that was probably a bug].I couldn't test on Vista, because the police took that computer.... I guess I only read about a third of that post -- it looks like there could be multiple issues, or there are different types of voodoo that can cure it...I only read about halfway, but I'm tired.Good thing I have a Mac now.
