Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 13.04 (raring) reached end-of-life on January 27, 2014.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested in discussing it any more. But if you are then please upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version and re-test. If you then find the bug is still present in the newer Ubuntu version, please add a comment here telling us which new version it is in and change the bug status to Confirmed. Also I can't test this on Ubuntu 17.10 because it uses GNOME Settings rather than Unity Settings and doesn't seem to allow you to change the date/time format in that, only to set the timezone. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1229303 Title: Regional settings (date format) is ignored Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: please see screenshot.
