@Patrick Dawkins,
Nope, that doesn't help for me. When it fails the process gets left
running, but killing it doesn't help. I.e. launching it again still
fails and produces another running process.
I can reproduce this, but after booting and trying it the first time it
sometimes works. Closing
I have the same problem. This might be a simpler explanation of the
solution:
1. Press ALT+F2 (to bring up the Run a command dialog)
2. Type killall indicator-datetime-preferences and press Enter
3. Try to open Time Date Settings again

I confirm that, when i kill the processus indicator-datetime-
preferences, the applet works fine after.
But, i haven'nt this processus after boot and login. The fisrt time
after i hit the preference option, then, the pocessus appears once. I
kill it, i restart the preferences and it works fine.
@sacha it seems what's happening is the application fails to load the
first time because of a failure possibly in policy kit but it hangs. The
subsequent attempts are blocked by libunique.

On ubuntu-fr.org, some users doesn't have this bug on natty beta2. Why?

Hello!

Not fixed as of today and 0.2.3-0ubuntu3. Shouldn't the priority be
higher as there is currently no way to change time or to 24h format?

@Dennis, the indicator-datetime-preferences is obviously having some

hmm, this is interesting - there seems to be some link to dbus not

after killing it it'll restart fine.

After opening and subsequently closing the preferences the first time I

I can confirm the date/time settings dialog not to be opening with all

opening some days, some other days not. Some users are affected, some
are not. See also comments on bug 729631 [1].

Addendum: NOW, after a restart AND wating forever in the terminal window
after entering »indicator-datetime-preferences« (where nothing happend)
the dialog appeas when clicking on the menu entry of the date/time
indicator in the panel.
What a strangeness.
