Upgraded to 13.10 now clock settings are all disabled and clock does not display
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?

Thanks for the responses
I've restarted several times and that didn't fix the issue.
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.

I believe the issue is related to 'rarings' changing the systray somehow... http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/02/raring-retires-system-tray-whitelist
Or systray disappeared, although I haven't got that solution to work yet.

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
I had the same problem. I performed a reboot and my clock is back.
