clock

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.
