I am using Unity on Ubuntu 20.04 for a couple of weeks and suddenly the time indicator on the service panel disappeared a couple of days ago. Tried all the answers provided on the web but was unable to restore the time indicator.

When I ran locate indicator-datetime-service, I found a couple of crash files:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-datetime/indicator-datetime-service

/var/crash/_usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_indicator-datetime_indicator-datetime-service.1000.crash

/var/crash/_usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_indicator-datetime_indicator-datetime-service.1000.upload

/var/crash/_usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_indicator-datetime_indicator-datetime-service.1000.uploaded

The snippet of the crash file is shown below

ProblemType: Crash

Architecture: amd64

CrashCounter: 1

CurrentDesktop: Unity:Unity7:ubuntu

Date: Fri May 28 23:07:13 2021

DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04

ExecutableTimestamp: 1581950243

ProcCmdline: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/indicator-datetime/indicator-datetime-ser vice

Is there something I can do to fix the problem?

indicator-datetime-service

Collapse the RAM and CPU see in System Monitor (Processes: indicator-datetime-service 'stop it')

Open 'Online Accounts' from System Tools, Software (program repositories) Select the Google Online Account and disable calendar synchronization.

This was my problem too on Ubuntu Mate 20.04

google acount online

I ran into the same problem. Check System Monitor -> Search 'indicator-datetime-service'-> if you find it then disable it. Then go to online accounts and then disable calendar synchronization and then follow the steps of the 2nd answer of Missing date & time applet from top Unity panel .

Then restart and log in.
