Cannot manually set the time zone I'm not able to manually set the time zone for my MacBook Pro (14" M1) running macOS Ventura 13.4. Similar to this issue https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254546193?login=true Time Zone is like label, clicking on it, highlighting or typing does nothing like its a label and not a text input.

How to set the time zone? I took a trip and the MacBook shows the wrong time. How do I change it? If I click the date-time in upper right corner the widgets come out, it doesn't have time options like it used to. I went to Date and Time preferences but there is no setting for the time zone like it used to have. Even the Closest City menu only shows locations in the wrong time zone. I tried "Automatically" and "using current location" but it doesn't do anything. All I want to do is change my time zone from Pacific to Mountain.

I found this in terminal.

Sudo systemsetup -gettimzone.

You can man systemsetup to see all the ways you can set timezone.

Not sure about a command, but in System Settings, General, Date & Time ...There you can set Time zone.
