Macintosh LCII - available dates end 2019-21-31

I am still using an LCII to do some music editing.

Today I replaced the battery to allow the time to stay.

I tried to set the date to 2020 but it doesn't allow any year above 2019.

After 2019 it continues with 1920.

Does anybody know?

MackBook Air adjusting Date and Time I can't make changes to the Date and Time. It shows Dec 31st 2018. I can't select any of the buttons in the Time and Date preference box. I can't also get any updates. How do I go about fixing it? Thanks. Ruti

Clock set to 3rd October 2022 Macbook Air has not been used for a month or so and looks like was left on and the battery has run flat. The date and time had reset to 1st April, (didn't notice what year) So reset it in the settings using auto updates but that has set the date at 3rd October. I could live with that but will not allow access to some websites because of certificate issues. Some apps will not work either. Need help in how to set it (yes time zones are all correct etc etc)
