Bug: date inserted in cell does not update automatically

Can't find where to report a bug in Numbers. When I insert a date in a cell and set it to update automatically, it does not update. Have to update it manually daily. Seems there used to be a way to report bugs...
Anyone know how to do that now?

Feature already reported.
+The Numbers User Guide states:+
+To add and format the date and time, place the insertion point where you want the value to appear, and then choose Insert > Date & Time.+
+To change the date and time format, Control-click the date and time value, choose Edit Date & Time, and then choose a date and time format from the pop-up menu. If you want the spreadsheet to always show the current date and time, select “Automatically update on open.”+
+Alas, under 10.4.11 *(and now under 10.6.1)* this feature doesn't apply.+
+The date remains as it was when we entered it.+
+Happily we have a simple workaround:+
+we may use the formula =TODAY()+
+But a feature wihch doesn't behave as described may be called a buggy one. Isn't it ?+
As long as the feature doesn't behave as described, use the given workaround.

Time stamp does not update automatically

Hi, All. I want include the time stamp (yyyy-mo-dd-min-sec) in the file name. However, the value of the time stamp does not update automatically/synchronizes with the computer clock at each new run. I need to do it manually with the right click and update the time to the current.
How can I solve this? Thanks a lot in advance.

What does this have to do with NI counter/timer hardware?
What language are you using and what function are you using to get a timestamp? If the language is LabVIEW, then all you need is Get Date/Time in Seconds. If you are using a front panel Time Stamp control, then you are using the incorrect function.

The tab bar in Safari does not update automatically

Hello,
I have a strange problem with Safari full screen mode and the tab bar always displayed, it does "not update" alone. In fact when I, for example, two tabs and I created a third (by clicking a link) it does not appear immediately. I have to either click on the tab bar and pretend to move one, either click the "Naviagtion tabs" for bar tabs emtte update.
A little heavy, huh?
All my software are up to date and even reinstalled recently, but the problem is still present.
OS X Lion Mountain / / Safari 6.0.2

Firefox Sync does not update automatically when I add a new bookmark.

I use one desktop and one notebook at the same time. Firefox Sync does not update bookmarks between my desktop and notebook when I add a new bookmark from one device or the other. Firefox Sync only updates when I manually sync my data from each device. When I used Google Chrome, the Sync feature updated my bookmarks almost instantly. Is there any way I can make Firefox automatically sync whenever I update my bookmark?

Your imported bookmarks from IE should all be in one folder named "From Internet Explorer". The imported Bookmarks are kept separate for easier identification by the user. You can move them to other folders outside of that folder if you wish; you can also delete any duplicates that you may have placed into Firefox Bookmarks/folders before the import.

Passbook does not update automatically

passbook not updating automatically i have to go to each app and manually add updates.

The only updates are those of amounts for Starbucks, since that is the only one I can comment on. Is that what you are referring to, is the amount, or the number of cards? You didn't answer my other question. If you update the amount in your card, either by purchase to decrease, or reloading to increase, it is those amounts that are not updating? Is this correct? If you purchase a new card, it will not automatically be added to Passbook, you have to manually add it. Since I don't have the Cub foods app, can we just concentrate on Starbucks, since I have it and use it regularly. I will be able to understand what you are doing and maybe not doing that way. To be honest, at this point, I'm still not sure exactly what you are doing.

Date Modified in Finder does not update immediately

I am finding that the Date Modified value takes several minutes to update in my Finder window when I've modified, saved and closed a particular file. Is there any particular reason for Finder not reflecting the the modified value immediately or any steps I can take to remedy this?

I'm not 100% sure but when the finder window was constantly on the focus of the folder that contained the file in question, that's when the date would take time to update. However, since changing my workflow slightly, I now have several finder tabs open and I've found it changes immediately; or at least, it's updated as my focus has moved to another tab and then back to the tab containing the folder. Need more observation to confirm this though.

Alternate data stream (ADS) removal does not update file time stamp.

Hello,
I am using standard CL program stream.exe to operate ads on file.
If I add ADS to file, file data\time will be changed.
F:\>dir
07/23/2014 06:43 PM            32,768 test.txt
F:\>stream cr test.txt:0 important_info
SUCCESSFUL: tf1.txt:0 is created.
RC = 0
F:\>dir
07/30/2014 07:11 PM            32,768 tf1.txt
If I remove ADS from file, file data\time will be unchanged.
F:\>dir
07/30/2014 07:11 PM            32,768 tf1.txt
F:\>stream de tf1.txt:0
SUCCESSFUL: tf1.txt:0 is deleted.
RC = 0
F:\>dir
07/30/2014 07:11 PM            32,768 tf1.txt
Is it a normal behavior? I suspect a defect in stream.exe.

Hi,
This depends on that if the stream.exe contains the related code like SetFileTime when play the deleting action.
SetFileTime function
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724933(v=vs.85).aspx
So we may need your resource code about de of stream.exe to determine the issue.

My TOC does not update automatically when I change the header text of a chapter

Some chapters do; others don't. Anybody?
Thanks

The current version is 10.2.2, and that's why your iTunes hasn't automatically updated. Any currently available version of iCloud is a beta only, and so iTunes will not automatically update via Software Update
When you do update, you won't lose any of your current iTunes Library. If you want to be sure, back up the library which, by default is in <your user name>/Music. If you copy the whole /Music folder, you'll be absolutely sure.

E52 Date Display does not update and reflect the c...

Right from day 1 the display date of my E52 does not update and reflect correct the correct date. Got the phone replaced once still the same issue. Called the customer service and they say there is no such problem with E52. They asked me to go to the repair center...(isnt that ridiculous to ask a customer of a new phone to do so?). I went to the repair center with a hope that they will replace it for me but all in vain. They also gave me a ridiculous answer that Nokia does not have a replacement policy...and I was like so is it Nokia's policy to sell broken and faulty mobiles? I was utterly dejected. The electronic store where I bought also refuse to replace because they think there is a problem and no matter I get it changed it will recur. I still do not have a solution as all my ways of getting this problem resolved are exhausted. Anyone has a solution or came across this issue which can be solved without repairing?

Ok let me state my problem. There is a date display and at midnight the date should automatically change to the next date. However that does not happen. The dealer makes the following changes Control Panel>Settings>General>Date and time> Automatic time update> On and this does not solve the problem. Then I get the mobile replaced and that too has the same problem. after going through all permutations and combinations the problem persists. To quote the email from the Contact center for Nokia in HK this was what was suggested
Menu→Ctrl. panel→Settings→General→Date and time→Time zone→please select Hong Kong→Automatic time update→please select Off
However, if the situation still occurred by following the above settings, please be advised to bring your Nokia E52 along with the valid sales invoice to one of our Hong Kong Nokia Care Centres for the handset checking since we do not have such arrangement of replacing a new phone to you.
Please help!!!

Real time ROLAP or Automatic molap cubecube does not update the value

Hello Everyone,
I am working with Real time Rolap and Automatic MOLAP cube. I had created cube using AdventureWorks DW sample given by Microsoft Tutorial. when i fire insert query, It updates data. It works fine in both the cases after reconnecting in SSMS and SSAS browser.
But I have a one database table in SQL server with 4 varchar and 10 numeric fields [simple table with one primary key without any relationship with other table]. I tried to create both type of cube from direct database table [selecting varchar fields as
dimensions and numeric as measures], created partitions, specified server side tracking table. It processes the cube. but when i add rows into this table. It inserts record but does not update in SSAS browser or SSMS browser.
Please help me what is the problem???
Thanks in Advance!

I noticed the same behavior reported by Bob: Not regarding the "process filter" or the "update frequency" selected "CPU Time" column is only updated when details dialog is open. I noticed it just today (which triggered the search here), I wonder if this "feature" has been always present or maybe activity monitor is getting lazy?

Mauro

Bug in PL/SQL - Does not update Table if table name & variable name same in

Dear All,
If tabale name & vairable name is same in a Stored Procedure, UPDATE to table does not take place.
For example run following 2 procedures. First procedure does the insert properly to table but second procedure does not update the table.
create or replace procedure BugDemo1
as
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(30);
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(30);
Begin
LAST_NAME := 'Prasad';
FIRST_NAME := 'Raghnandan';
Insert into com_people (id,Roles, LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME) values (77777,'Patient', LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME);
end;
create or replace procedure BugDemo2
as
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(30);
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(30);
Begin
LAST_NAME := 'Pra';
FIRST_NAME := 'Raghu';
Update com_people set
LAST_NAME = LAST_NAME,
FIRST_NAME = FIRST_NAME
where id = 77777 ;
end;
------------------------------------------

Hi,
It is not a bug. Oracle is updating the records. Here Oracle is treating the variable name as COLUMN_NAME. Since priority is higher for a COLUMN on variable so each column is getting updated by itself resulting no change in data.
SQL> CREATE TABLE com_people
2 (
3 id NUMBER (5),
4 Roles VARCHAR2(20),
5 LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(20),
6 FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(20)

Bug: Histogram Does Not Update when Using Painting Tools

I was investigating something else, and I saw something not working... I'm under the distinct impression that the Histogram panel should automatically update after every operation. Having the Histogram panel displayed full-time on the screen, it should always be up to date.
However, when I Dodge or Burn or even paint color on an image, the Histogram is not updating.
If I select one of the History states I've just created, it updates.
Consider this simple sequence of operations:
I'm able to reproduce this failure in Photoshop CS5 as well, BUT NOT IN CS4 (it updates in Photoshop CS4 after every painting operation), so clearly it's not a new bug, though somehow I've managed not to notice it in my years of using Photoshop CS5.
Is it broken like this for everyone in Photoshop CS5 and 6?
Could this be some twisted attempt to try to optimize painting performance? If so, why isn't there an option to allow a user to request it to update on every operation on a fast computer with cores out the wazoo?
-Noel

More info:
Just poking around in Photoshop CS6 to see what, if anything would make the Histogram display update...
Even though the Refresh icon is disabled (and the "Uncached Refresh" entry in the fly-out menu is grayed-out), double-clicking in the topmost histogram display will force it to update (as described above by Conroy in post #1 above).
If I change the selection Channel field in the Histogram panel, mostly it does not update, but when I change between some of the settings - for example between RGB and Luminosity - the graphs update. Amazingly they revert back to the un-updated state if I switch the channel BACK to what it was!
Making a selection DOES cause it to update.
Choosing Select - Color Range (just starting the function) DOES cause it to update.
Hitting the quick mask mode button DOES cause it to update. Notably Edit in Quick Mask Mode is in the Select menu. Could an association with Select be a clue?
This bug is easy to reproduce, is shown to be a problem across multiple versions and multiple OSs, and in at least one case (Photoshop CS4 x64 on Windows 7 x64 here) it can be shown to work properly, so the code is probably not far off being right. Seems to me this should be the kind of thing a junior engineer could find and fix so someone, say, at Chris Cox's level could have it done before 5 today...
