Global date and time settings incorrect for apps and emails.

Hi there,


We have just purchased a brand new iMac and are finding the inability to get the date and time correct for the applications.


For example when we open up Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail the dates on the email are saying yesterday when they should say todays date.


I thought to correct this I would goto the region but it doesn't seem to give the option in macOS Ventura.


Can anyone please assist with this?

System Settings -> General -> Date & Time


Ensure the date and time and Time zone (region) are correct.


If setting the time zone automatically does not work, set it manually. The Mac will attempt to use a variety of methods to determine your location and VPN or other network issues could cause it to set the wrong region.
