My computer runs quick books pro for my business and for
some reason the date has been set one month in advance,
however when I turned off the machine and restarted it the
next day the date was correct. Is there some way the o/s
can be set to change the date automatically? All of my
reciepts are off by on month and I can't reconcile.
 
It is probably being updated from a "time source".

Type this into a command prompt:

net time /querysntp

It will show the IP address of the time source your machine uses to set your time. Mine is set to Indiana EDU since it's considered a reliable source. Most likely it is a domain controller or something that out of sync with global time.
