1. Time Passed Mac Os X
2. Time Passed Mac Os 11

Thanks for that, I will be using the ruby approach because since I'm operating with Mac OS X the second approach doesn't actually work, but I'm curious if there is a way to measure milliseconds natively. It took almost 40 minutes on my 2017 iMac 5K which has a really fast SSD. I remember OS updates taking 5-10 minutes even when SSD's were not this fast. And it takes even less time to simply install the OS on an empty disk. This will reveal key information about your Mac and the current installed version of OS X on the right of the window. Listed among this information is an entry labeled Time Since Boot with a value in days, hours, and minutes. In the case of our example screenshot above, we can see that our Mac's current uptime is 7 days, 2 hours, and 11 minutes. Jul 04, 2012 The clock in Mac OS X sets itself automatically by default, but if you want to set the precise time or are looking for a command line solution to set system time, you can do so with a tool called ntpdate, or the standard ‘date' command. Set System Date in Mac OS X from Command Line with a Central Time Server.

Tip: Backup Mac data before downgrading macOS or Mac OS X

It's highly recommended for you to back up all important Mac data first before you start downgrading Mac OS to an older system.

You can either choose third-party Mac backup software to back up Mac data to an external hard drive at once or choose Time Machine to back up all wanted data with ease.

Considering data security, it's also highly recommended for you to backup all important data into an external hard drive.

If you prefer to use Time Machine, here are the details:

• Click 'Finder' > 'Preference'> Check 'Hard disks box' underShow these items on the desktop.
• Open the backup disk and create a file folder and name it, for example, 'My Backup'.
• Open the Mac disk and click'Users' file folder > Select all files and data that you want to back up and drag to the My Backup file folder.

Wait for the process to finish. After backing up all data, then you can start to revert macOS with ease. Here, you'll find two methods for you to downgrade macOS without losing data and you can choose either one as a guide.

Method 1. Downgrade macOS or Mac OS X with Time Machine

So if you have created backups for your Mac data and macOS, follow the below steps for a guide. If you haven't created such a backup, please jump to Method 2 to downgrade Mac OS.

2. 2. Insert the hard drive used for Time Machine and chooseto Restore from Time Machine Backup under OS X Utility, choose the inserted hard drive.

1. 3. Choose the most recent data and time when the Mac was still running the current macOS.
2. 4. Select the main disk drive where the backup was stored and it is usually named Macintosh HD. Click Restore.

Then all you need is to wait for the computer to restore and gain Yosemite again. It will usually take a few hours or all day long, depending on how much data need to be restored.

Method 2. Create USB Boot Drive and Revert Back to Old macOS or Mac OS X

This method is set for users who have no Time Machine backups. And if you have no backups of your current macOS or Mac OS, use Time Machine to back up your important data first and the system first.
