Automatic Date & Time not working in Pages 5

I have some templates that I had created with Pages 09 which have Date & Time fields that are set to auto update.  When I open those templates in Pages 5, the dates are displayed as 7 days in the past.  When I right-click on the field to edit it, I don't see any such option to edit the date like I did in Pages 09. 
So I tried inserting a new Date & Time field.  This inserts today's date as expected, but there is still no way to edit the date in any way (formatting, auto update option, etc.) that I can find.  Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

It might be that you need to recreate your document and tables in Pags 5 and then resave it as a template.  Pages '09 gave an "update on open option" with a date insert wich is not there in Pages 5.  So simply insert the today() or now() function into a table cell in Pages 5 and it will update to the current value.  When you select the cell in the table with either of these functions, the Format inspector Cell tab gives you the option to format these calculations further.

  • Automatic date & time not working on my iPhone 4S

    Anyone got any ideas on why, when I set date & time to change automatically, does my iphone 4s revert to London time regardless of where I am?

    Switch to manual and the time where you are. Do it several time then return to automatic. Correct time should stand

  • TS3297 I find the instructions to use automatic date/time in ts3297 to be totally unacceptable.

    I do things on my MBP (software builds) that REQUIRE consistent timestamps. I also travel extensively, which frequently results in "going backwards in time' (flying east to west). Updating date/time automatically causes total confusion for my builds, among other things.
    I haven't debugged (yet) the same error message on my iPhone 4 which _does_ have 'automatic date/time' set.
    My iPhone 4S and original iPad seem to work just fine. The 4S has automatic date/time, original iPad has manual date/time.
    All ios devices are 5.1.1, MBP is Mountain Lion. In other words, no software updates required for any device.
    The interesting thing, it's only updates.... Now that _does_ require date/time info, but I would expect to see 'no updates found', not 'unable to connect'.

    Okay, checked the iPhone 4 debug steps.
    Not my ISP, I can press 'featured' in the App Store and see what's up. Safari works, etc.
    Doesn't matter whether connection is Wi-fi or 3g, fails.
    Powered down/up, no change. Switched from automatic to manual and back, no change.
    Went back to MBP, the OSX app store works just fine. It found I needed to update iTunes on my MBP. We'll see what happens after that. Can't expect it to solve my iPhone 4 issue, though.
    Download time for iTunes update is 35+ minutes (hotel connection). I'll be back.....

  • Automatic Date & Time

    Somehow the Automatic date & time, and the Automatic time zone settings get themselves unchecked.  I don't know how it happens, but it's happened three times in the past month.  Is there some way to lock them, and perhaps other settings as well, so they can't be changed?  Or is access to all settings on the LG G2 wide open all the time?

    Thank you for the quick response!  I have never backed up the phone nor restored to factory data reset.  It's a new device.  I've had it for about a month.  I am the only user of this phone.  There are no kids in the house.
    I suspect what's happening is that it is very easy to get to the settings page from the front panel, and that if the I put the phone in my pants pocket, it doesn't take much to get into settings mode and from there to the date settings and from there turning off those automatic time/date settings.  I've notice other settings get turned off as well, so it's not just the date and timezone.  If there was some way to make it harder to get to the settings page, that would help a lot.  Maybe if that link were hidden, or just not on the front panel?
    The first time this happened I was on a trip to a different time zone.  I set the alarm clock to wake me up for the flight back home, and when did went off it was 32 minutes late.  The next time it happened I had set an alarm clock for a morning business meeting and it got me there an hour early.  And then it happened again this week but now I check the time every night, so I caught it.
    I was using a blackberry for years before this phone, and they made the settings pages well hidden.  So I was hoping there was a way they could be hidden better on this phone.

  • I have lost the automatic date/time stamp

    I have lost the automatic date/time stamp when a form is submitted on my response page.  How do I make it start doing it again?  The column just appears blank now with new submissions.

    In the first cell of the column you need to re-enter the formula that used to be there.  Enter "= LOCALTIME(ROWCREATEDATE()".  You may need to change the date format after this.  Click on the Table button in the toolbar, select the Column with the dates, then select your prefered format.

    I do not know the answer but if you look through the Add-ons under [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=translation translate] you may find something suitable.

  • Automatic update does not work

    On my both computers (Windows 7, Window 8), the automatic update does not work at all, although it is activated in the options. All I get in the Firefox info box is that an update is available, with a link that I have to follow to download the installation file and install it manually. No difference even if I wait for weeks, the update is neither downloaded nor installed automatically. The problem persists in all Firefox versions since version 3.6.16 / 2011 (the last update in the chronicle). Note that the automatic update seems to perform well in the Windows XP mode of my Windows 7 system !

    It will update eventually; there may have been availability problems on the update servers.

    The Restriction option to NOT ALLOW CHANGES to Mobile or Cellular data does not work why is this ?

    Hi there,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

    Additionally, you may want to try completely disabling and re-enabling restrictions.

    Are you in an area where there is no coverage?
    You can try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    If that doesn't help, then yOu'll need to contact Sprint again.

    Open a Word Processing document, sounds like you have opened a blank Layout template which has absolutely nothing to type into, you need to add Textboxes or Shapes.
