    Changing 24 hour clock to twelve hour

    Hello,

    I can't find where I can change the digital clock from a 24 hour clock to a 12 hour clock? How can it be done?
    The Date & Time System Settings are all greyed out and not changeable. There's no option in the digital clock settings either.

    What version of KDE are you running - 3.5.x or 4.x?

        Don't believe you can. I'm running HH KDE 4.01 (on my other partition) and I can't change the clock either. This will most assuredly be available when the final release of HH KDE 4.1 is released.

          Okay, thanks. I just added the analog clock widget so I don't have to think to tell the time.

            System Settings --> Regional & Language --> Time & Dates tab

            Change the time format to pH:MM:SS AMPM.

            Restart KDE.

              This works on KDE 3.5.x, but (so far) not in KDE 4.x.

                This works for me in KDE 4.x

                See screenshot.

                  Right-click, on the "Time" (bottom Right).
                  A pop-up window should appear.
                  Select "Date and Format".
                  Read, carefully, and make adjustments.
                  New to Kubuntu I might be, but, I figured that one out, ages ago.
                  All you have to do, once you have made adjustment...........is to "Log Out/Log In', again.
                  To make the Time change, to what you want.
