Hi Michael
I received mine today and, believe it or not, I had exactly the same problem
as you. But my friend Ian told me that you have to wait a few seconds
whenever you are setting the time and date because there is a long lag from
your press of the button until you receive speech feedback. It is easy to
do once you know there will be speech at some point after a press! (smile).
Go into Preferences, Set Time And Date, and use the arrow keys to adjust its
parameters. When you are done, press enter to accept.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

Hello,
I just bought an Olympus DM5 digital voice recorder from Amazon, used.
It's a great little unit but...I'm trying to set the date and time, and
at no time does it speak anything, either month, day, hour, minute or
anything. I know the clock is wrong because when I record anything it
is given a date and time which is completely wrong.
Either I am doing something completely wrong, or Olympus are the
stupidest bunch of people on the planet. Why would they produce a
device like this with voice-guidance throughout except when setting date
and time?
Any help would be appreciated. I would love to be proven wrong and told
I am being a wally. But unless I can set the time and date without
sighted assistance it is going back.
Mike
