I have an iMac G5 with Mac OSX 10.3.9 and I want to ask a question:

Is there any way that I could have displayed in my menu bar the date too? because I can only set the time to be there and I don't want to have the date and time in a window or analog

I just want the time and date both in the menu bar. Is this possible?





Somebody, please erase my other copy of this thread. I didn't mean it, sorry.

Unfortunately you'll have to use 3rd party software if you're using Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. However... for those of you who have Tiger and want the date in the menu bar you can trick OS X into putting it there for you.

Counterside: it appears everywhere written this way. Even in iPhoto.
