Usually, the number 12 is in the top of clock.Instead, I get number 10 in the top position, and I want to fix the positions by rotating them, but of course as you can see in the image, the rotation becomes weird.
How to fix its position in this mode ( without enable rotate object mode, because I want the numbers to be like that, only rotate to their right position)? Is it possible?
Open the transform dialog [shift+ctrl+m] and go to the Rotate tab. Select your target shapes, i.e. the numbers around the clock face. Set [Angle: 360*2/12] since you want to rotate the numbers through two clock positions. This tilts the text of course so now set [Angle: -360*2/12] and turn on [Apply to each object separately]. The second rotation reverses the first while keeping the new text positions.
Hey guys... I have tried all of your tricks and tips. Only by arranging the number position in Layer and Objects panel like @TylerDurden and @Aero suggested, the positions become correct. Meanwhile when following @Paddy_CAD and Tyler's second tricks, I can't get automatic result. I must,many time, manually apply rotation from Transform dialogue to get correct result. But it's okay .... Thank you guys for sharing your opinion on my question

Here I have made Clock Face object using circle shape and numbers. But there is something wrong in the object like in this image

Try selecting in a different order (by holding shift) before applying arrange.
3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 circle
Is this what you mean?
Or this:
Or this:
The first tab is the Transform dialog (Ctrl+Shift+M)

I never suggested arranging the number position in Layer and Objects panel. That is an unnecessary step.
@Aero oh I'm sorry... I mistaking your tips for it to be done in Layer and Objects panel
