@hall1458 Wow. Dude, I’m sorry that nobody has stepped in to help you out. I’m not much of a *nix guy, but I’ve been dealing with this at work for various reasons. I’ll do what I can.
The NTP service should synchronize your Pi’s clock with one of many time servers out on the internet. If you get a terminal onto your Pi and type ps ax | grep ntpd you should see this line in return: 602 ? Ss 0:04 /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -g -u 106:111. Some parts will be different. This is good. If all you see is grep --color=auto ntp then the NTP service isn’t running. Post back here and we’ll get that fixed.
Assuming that NTP is running on your pi, you will want to check the configuration of your NTP server. Type nano /etc/ntp.conf. If you see a blank screen/file, then you have a problem. Assuming you do see a file, you want to look for the following lines:
# pool: server 0.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst server 1.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst server 2.debian.pool.ntp.org iburst server 3.debian.pool.ntp.org iburstThese are the servers that your Pi will be checking for a valid time. You can manually check them as well. Exit the /etc/ntp.conf file and type ntpq -pn and wait. You should see something like this:

Give it a go and report back.
