I wonder whether there is anyone who is able to show the clock in a beamer presentation. I have not come across any working example. Following the tdclock documentation, I compiled the MWE below. It shows only blank boxes where the date and time are supposed to appear, see pdf attached.
I would appreciate any advice.
\documentclass[xcolor=dvipsnames]{beamer}
\usepackage{beamerthemeshadow}
\usepackage[font=Helv,timeinterval=60]{tdclock}
\setbeamertemplate{headline}{\initclock\large{\tdyear-\tdmonth-\tdday
\quad\tdhours:\tdminutes}}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\title[]{Main Title}
\author[]{Zilore Mumba}
\institute[]{Unza}
\usepackage[font=Helv,timeinterval=60]{tdclock}
\setbeamertemplate{headline}{\initclock\large{\tdyear-\tdmonth-\tdday\quad\tdhours:\tdminutes}}
\usepackage{xkeyval}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
\initclock
\title{Beamer Presentation}
\author{Zilore Mumba}
\begin{frame}
\titlepage
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}\frametitle{first slide}
content
\end{frame}
\end{document}

If this is not there is means your distribution removed it. I just moved it away and I get the same as the screenshots from the OP. – ArTourter May 09 '16 at 10:22
