Mac Does Not Retain Video Creation and Modification Dates

I seem to have encountered a major problem for managing videos on the Mac. There does not seem to be a method - other than manually dragging files "Windows Style" - for moving videos from my camera (any camera) to the Mac (any Mac) that retains the video's modification date (the date the video was taken) so that videos can be organized by date (which, I imagine, is the primary way that I and everyone else would normally keep track of their videos). iMovie resets the "Date Modified" and "Date Created" data to the day that iMovie imported the file. That data is almost meaningless. Yes, iMovie allows for modifying the "Clip Date and Time" after the fact and one at a time but that is obviously inadequate for the serious management of archived files. Neither iPhoto or Image Capture seem to be capable of touching video files at all. Is Mac really this deficient for managing video files? Somebody please tell me I'm wrong. Thanks.

I run into the same problem while working on some sort of file synching task.
Trying to read the file.modificationDate or creationDate results in an error: "Error #3003: File or directory does not exist."
I have obeserved that this only happens for files that were packaged with the app (and placed in the File.applicationDirectory).
Files that my app has downloaded and saved to the device (File.applicationStorageDirectory) do have a valid creation date and modification date.
Maybe the File.applicationDirectory has different rights?
Does anybody have a solution or workaround for this?

Creation and Modification dates for android file system

Hello all, I am working on a project and i noticed a particular scenario where i'm getting an error everytime i try to run the code below on my android device;
                var file:File=File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("amf.js");
                var modDate:Date;
                var createDate:Date;
                 if(file.exists)
                        try
                                   modDate=file.modificationDate;
                                   credDate=file.creationDate;
                                   trace("Modification date: "+ modDate.toString()+"\nCreation date: "+credDate.toString());
                         catch(e:Error)
                                  trace(e.message+": Somehow android OS CANNOT READ mODIFICATRION AND CREATING DATES FOR FILES");
Every time i run this on Adobe AIR's Mobile emulator, the correct dates are show up properly(Possibly because the emulator is running on Windows) but when i switch the debug to the device, the statement in the catch block executes. The real error says "Error #3003: File or directory does not exist."
Am i missing something or is this a normal behaviour which i have to find a work around for? The modificationDate and the creationDate are all properties of the FileReference class which i didnt use to instanciate the file object because i wasnt uploading or downloading anything.
Any form of tip will be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Mac does not recognize wireless keyboard and track pad.

After waking my Mac from sleep it does not recognize the wireless keyboard and track pad. OS 10.7.5.

Does your iMac recognize any other BT devices? For example a trackpad, or a wireless mouse?
Also, check Applications -> Utilities -> Console and look for bluetooth messages.

Finder Window Does not retain custom size and/or view

I recently installed OS X Snow Leopard and ever sine I have had problems with the behaviour of my finder windows in that they simply will not retain my custom view settings.
+For example, I set the default view to coverflow with a 50/50 ratio of coverflow (on top) and file lists (on the bottom). But as soon as I click to another location, close and then reopen any finder window, at any time, the result is always the same - the window opens in coverflow with the coverflow graphics taking up around 90% of the window space and the file lists underneath squeezed down to minimum size. Even if I set all windows to open in icon view or list view, the same thing happens.+
*I have tried all of the following:*
Opening a finder window, resizing, and then closing it straight away
Deleting the both the finder and the side bar plist files, emptying the trash and then restarting finder
Restarting finder on its own
*Is anyone having the same problem and if so have they found a solution?*

This problem affects a few of my Finder windows, including the Application folder window. I recently did a clean reinstall of SL (which stands for Stupid Lunatic, because that's what I was for upgrading), and the problem occurred a few days later. This cannot be due to using Migration Assistant (and moving "bad" folders), because the installation process creates the Applications folder and populates it with Apples apps. Migration Assistant just adds your apps to the existing folder.
This problem, or minor variations of it, has occurred with all seven major versions of OS X. Finder window settings were rock solid way back in OS 7 days and remained so through OS 9. I know that Steve Jobs hates the Desktop/Finder approach, but if it's going to be in OS X, then it should work correctly. I actually long for the days when rebuilding the desktop fixed most of the icon and window problems.
We need a utility that can erase the custom settings for our folders and let us start with a clean settings file.

Z77a-gd65 debug 60 - does not output video, keyboard and mouse don't light up

Hello guys!
I've had this motherboard since August 2012. It worked great until my street suffered from a power outage yesterday, and since it came back on I can't figure out what exactly is wrong with my mobo.
The power up process occurs fine until debug code 60 shows up, then nothing else happens. There's no video, my Mouse and Keyboard lights stay off, but all the 8 CPU phase leds are on, DrMos_Alarm led is off, and it doesn't reboot by itself.
I also didn't find debug code 60 on the manual. There's 63-67, 69-6F, but nothing about 60. I know i'm reading it from the correct perspective, because a bunch of other codes such as 4F appear before 60. I can't tell exactly which code comes right before 60 because it flashes at least 3 other codes very quickly.
I've tried the clear CMoS button (with the system off), I've tried removing the CMoS battery and using a jumper on JBAT1 to clear CMoS, I've tried the multi-bios switch. Nothing changed.
All the fans in my rig seem to function fine, including the CPU (connected in the CPU_FAN1) and GPU fans. I've also taken voltage measurements:
VCCP = 1.264V
CPU_VTT = 1.054V
CPU_GFX = 0.03V (this seemed a tad low, should I be worried? This was taken without any dedicated graphics cards in the mobo)
VCC_DDR = 1.513V
PCH_1P05 = 1.056V
Could you guys give me any advice?
Other information:
Mouse - Razer Abyssus 1800
Keyboard - Razer Cyclosa
PSU - Corsair TX v2 750W
CPU - Core i5 3570K
Memory - Patriot Viper 3 @ 1866Mhz (1.5V) (XMP settings)

Quote from: badboy2k on 12-October-14, 00:37:00
both 4F and 60 are DXE error codes (Pre-OS BIOS drivers that allow components to function before it has Software drivers)
if you have more then one memory module in the board try each individually and see if one of the sticks have failed or if you have some other DDR3 RAM try that?
Thanks for your reply. Here's what I did:
1) Removed each stick individually. Both of them caused the system to lock up at debug code 60 again.
2) Removed both sticks and tried two Kingston 1333mhz 2gb sticks from another machine (so, 4gb total, the patriots are 2x8gb). This caused a "loop" in the debug led where a bunch of different codes cycled very quickly, followed by "4F" where it stayed for about 2 seconds, then the cycle would begin again. I let the cycle run about a dozen times, then it moved to 63 and "hanged". The keyboard did not lit up, nor there was any video.
3) Removed the two kingston sticks and inserted them in different slots. The cycle between different codes followed by a pause after 4F happened again, but this time it didn't move on to 63, not even after it repeated for a couple dozen times.
4) Removed the two kingston sticks and tried a third kingston stick (2gb, 1333mhz) that hasn't been in use for a few months. This time, only the first CPU Phase led lit up (not the DrMos alarm led) and the debug led didn't show anything. I powered off the system and put in the Patriots again. No debug code, only 1st CPU phase led is lit up.
Is it safe to assume that the mobo is damaged? Is there anything I can do to make sure at least the CPU is okay? It would suck to buy a new mobo and find out I need a new CPU as well, I'd rather move on to haswell if that's the case.

IPad 2 Does not retain names and passwords after iOS-upgrade to 8.0.2

After the last series of iOS upgrades (device current status is 8.0.2 , latest available) the iPad2-16G WIFI version, does not retain any names and passwords anymore. Function (Safari) is enabled.
Re-booting, clearing memory etc did not solve anything).
Is this a known version 8.0 bug or .......?

Make sure "Private Browsing" is disabled.

"Your computer does not support video chatting." Sometimes.

Hi, I'm on a MacBook late '08 and my pal has some earlier macbook.
We are on each other's bonjour list. The problem is that sometimes we can have a video conference no problem, and at other, random times, the option is grayed out, and if I go to preferences, the iSight green light goes on, but the window says my computer does not support video chatting, and that's the end of the story. How do I troubleshoot that? Thanks.

Hi,
In the 5 years since iChat 2 came on the scene I have only managed 3 Video chats with people on Satellite connections.
The Issue is the time it takes to bounce the Signal Up and back to the Host server.
When you send for a Web page you send little data packets of requests.
Your computer does not send the next until the first is acknowledged.
It tends to improve once it is started and you may notice any downloads you do seem to get faster the longer they are going.
iChat requires for Video chat that the packets are almost Instantly responded to/acknowledged and most domestic modems do not do this.
Some commercial servers provide a Buffer at one end or the other that acts like the acknowledgement was sent speeding up the process and effectively getting the fastest service you can get out of the connection.
Speed testing your Connection tends to take long enough for the Acknowledgement issue to be reduced and will tell you the max speed you will possibly get
http://www.speedtest.net/ but not the start up speed.
With some services you can pay for the Buffering (I forget the actual name for it)

Role creation and modification report

Hello everybody!
The SOX Audit requested this information:
A list from all roles, with creation and modifications date (not when a user is added, but when the role was changed).
How can I find this? I tried on SUIM / modification docs, but could not found.
Thanks in advanced!

Check this table AGR_DEFINE has the details, but you may need to write some kind of coding or use function module /ISDFPS/GET_AGR_DETAILS to pull the data. If I come across any standard report I'll pass on.

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there.
searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
Regards.

HT204291 Using Azul media player app on my ipad Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies. Any ideas on a fix. I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video. It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

Using Azul media player app on my ipad Apple tv will only display sound but not video from movies. Any ideas on a fix. I set mirroring to on but it still does not display video. It will display photos and video recorded from my iphone.

Here are the steps for AirPlay:
Before starting Azul from your (running iOS 5.x/6.x) home screen where have have all your apps we need to turn on mirroring
On your iPhone 4S/5 or iPad 2 or 3, double-click the Home Button to view your recently-used apps.
Swipe all the way to the right to until you see the icon.
Note: If the icon does not appear, go to the "If AirPlay Mirroring is not visible or available on your mobile iOS device" section.
Tap the icon to see the list of available AirPlay devices.
Enable AirPlay Mirroring in this menu by tapping on an available Apple TV, then sliding the Mirroring slider to ON.
Now you should be seeing your iPad/iPhone on your TV.
Start up Azul now and using the settings icon on the top right corner go to the option that say "TV out" ON.
When you do that you will see an Orange screen
Now click "Done" and play the video you want to watch and it will AirPlay

Copy and Paste on Safari 5.0.2 does not retain formatting

Hi there.
I'm on Safari 5.0.2. and when I copy and paste something (in this case, on a message board--vBulletin, but it doesn't work on anything else) it does not retain the original formatting (for example--bold, italics, underline, etc.) If I copy something from Safari and paste it into another program, TextEdit for example, the formatting remains and works fine.
This is extremely annoying. Anyone have any ideas?
*If you're on Safari, try copying* and *pasting this sentence in a reply* --it will remove all the formatting for some reason. It will work in TextEdit, however. It's not just this message board software either...try it somewhere else too.

Hi
copying formatted text & pasting in Safari does retain the formatting, so long as the place you're pasting it supports varying fonts/styles.
So copy/paste here, just shows as plain text.
c/p to blogger.com in the 'compose' tab - works fine
c/p to blogger in the 'html' tab - plain text
same with textedit: paste from safari to textedit +in a plain text document+ -you get plain text.

I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.
