Dashboard Movie Widget Date Update

Is there a way to update the date of the dashboard movie widget aside from restarting the computer? I wish it were smarter and knew what day it was.

Mine has not been working for a couple of months now.  I just noticed that this widget does not recognize any Canadian cities anymore.  It used to work no problem up till September.  Its really too bad as I like this widget a lot.  Hope Apple fixes this or if anyone else has any suggestions on how to.  Thanks.

  • Dashboard movie widget not working

    Every couple of days it just spins and spins and cannot find any results. If I replace it with a new copy from manage widgets, it works again, but like I said, only for a few days. Any permanent solution?

    I don't have a solution, but I didn't want to start a new thread for a similar problem. I'm having the same issue. However every once in a while after a couple refreshes I do get results, but there is no artwork for any of the movies and none of the links work in the widget. I'm using OS 10.7. Hopefully it's just a server issue.

  • Dashboard Movie widget not working in Canada!

    I used to be able to select my City and Province.
    Now the widget no longer recognizes Canadian Cities.
    Am I doing something wrong?

  • HT2492 ML Dashboard Calendar widget has lost the ability to change the date.

    In ML the Dashboard calendar widget has lost the ability to change the day to other days. You can still navigate to different months with the arrow keys, but clicking on any day has no effect. I have not found a keystroke/mouse combination that allows the date to be changed from today's date.
    This is a useful function for me, to quickly be able to see what I have scheduled on any day. Now I have to open iCal, which is annoying.

    You are correct that there is no way to sort jobs in the print queue window in Snow Leopard. This is to be considered expected behavior. In other words, that's the way the software engineers intend it to work in Snow Leopard. You should provide Apple with feedback as to what you want. You can file a report at: _http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html_.

  • Movie Widget not working

    I was trying to use the Movies widget that comes preinstalled with Mountain Lion. When I try to change the location to a city in Canada, instead of showing theaters nearby or movies playing, nothing comes up. When you try to change the date, it automatically tries to make me change the location. Is anyone else having this problem or does anyone know how to solve this?

    Ok, then one more thing you can try. Go to your home folder/library/widgets. Copy the Fandango widget to your desktop. Then delete the original. Double-click on the one on your desktop, and open it again in the dashboard.
    If that doesn't work, than I'm not sure what to say. Sorry.

  • On the install of mavericks i have lost dashboard & my widget help.

    on the install of mavericks i have lost dashboard & my widget help.

    You may try this applescript program.
    log "  --- Starting on " & ((current date) as string) & " --- "
    -- percent
    set volume output volume 35 without output muted
    Start the AppleScript Editor
    /Applications/AppleScript/Script Editor.app
    In Snow Leopard it's at: /Applications/Utilities/AppleScript Editor
    Copy the script text to the Applescript editor.
    Save the text to a file as an application and do not check any of the boxes below.
    If you want access to the script from your Script Menu, move the script (the saved script application file) to your
    ~/Library/Scripts folder. You can also drag it to your Dock or make an alias for it on the Desktop.<br><br>
    To debug, run the script within the Applescript Editor. Click on the event log tab at the bottom of the window. Click  on the run icon.  The results from the log statement will be shown at the bottom of the screen.

  • Can we move archive data from Filenet to another tool

    Hi Guru's,
    we are currently archiving data from SAP to archive location in Filenet , now we are planning to move archive data to onther tool , please suggest below  thing are possible:-
    1) Keep filenet and add another tool also    
    2) Move all a from filenet to another tools and then start rest of archiving to new tool.
    Regards,
    Jeetendra

    Hello,
    I have done this process when we moved our archived data from IBM Commonstore to IXOS/OpenText as well as when we moved all of our archived images in OpenText that were stored in a jukebox and we moved them to a WORM/Hard Disk Storage (still Open Text).  But, in both cases, we were provided the necessary conversion programs from the relevant vendor (in this case Open Text).
    This process is complex and involves correctly updating mulitple internal SAP tables as well as the database entries in the new storage providor. 
    My recommendation is to work with the 3rd party solution partner where the data is going to be moved to and get the appropriate conversion programs from them.
    Best Regards,
    Karin Tillotson

  • Mac Dashboard Ink Widget

    I have HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fn. Dashboard ink widget was working fine on my MacBook Pro 15" Early 2011. I recently upgraded to MacBook Pro 15" with Ratina Mid 2014 run Yosemite and migrated my data to my new Mac, Widget no longer communicate with the printer although printer is printing fine. Searching the forum suggested to reinstall. I deleted the old Widget and reinstalled version 12.34 printer drivers. Widget did not install. I saw no "Setup Assistance"  included. Even, when I used the "Setup Assistance" from my old Mac, it did not show the option of installing "Widget". Any help is much appreciated.

    Hi @AhmedAttia 
    It is possible the software has changed and there is no longer a widget. What you can do is, check the Applications folder, look for the HP folder and if you find the Widget there you can create a short cut.
    The older version was version 12.23, thus the issue could very well be the difference in software.
    The migrated date would have been problematic because it is incompatible with 10.10.

  • Dashboard stocks widget

    what is the time delay of the stocks rate reflected in the dashboard stocks widget. also, does the same answer apply to the stocks app in iphone?

    AceNeerav,
    From memory my Stocks Widget says that the quotes are delayed by 20 minutes although having said that I note that even though the FTSE data is changing (ie, that market is open), the information line at the bottom says that "Markets closed (5:54 PM)" which I assume it to be referring to the Australian market given that I am in Western Australia. My iPhone Stocks app says "Quotes delayed 20 minutes" even though the Australian market (the one I have selected) is closed. Go figure.

    Not sure where you got the IP address from, but as listed in the wikipedia article, it is only used for local comms. Most of use have a 192.168.x.y IP address on our STBs. This is just used to communicate to the rotuer that then will nat the address out. 
    I know this doesn't answer your real question though. My guess is either accuweather or weatherchannel. Try going to either one of these sites and enter your zipcode (same as you did in the widget). See which forecast more closely matches.

  • Automator Script to move GPS data out of iPhoto

    Hi All,
    I've been looking for ways to get my photo library out of iphoto, and do so with all of the GPS data I added through the iPhoto interface and I have a solution. Unfortunately I have to enter commands one file at a time (and I have 12000 photos!). I was hoping some Automator experts here might be able to help me out.
    My plan is this:
    1.     Export "Original" files, sorted by Event Name.
    2.     Export jpegs with location data included in to a separate but itentical directory tree.
    3.     Use the command line tool "exiftool" to move GPS data from each file to the original.
    This will preserve my RAW files, and inlcude the data I want. I've made it work one file at a time with the following command:
    exiftool -overwrite_original_in_place -tagsFromFile ~/Pictures/iPhoto\ Export\ \-\ jpeg/Event\ Name/001.jpg -gps:all ~/Pictures/iPhoto\ Export\ \-\ RAW/Event\ Name/001.NEF
    So essentially I need an Automator script to take the output of an "ls" command with fill directory ftree for each file, put that in as the first argument, then change the file name and directory tree from jpeg to RAW and put that in as the econd argument, and run it for 12000 files. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks a ton to anyone who can respond.

    That's correct. Although the project file might suggest otherwise, the physical project structure for the initial Creator release is fixed, patterned after the Jakarta source structure http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/appdev/source.html
    Importing existing project structures is likely to become a priority in future updates/releases.

  • Movie Widget

    Anyone else having a problem with the movie widget?
    Mine is not working

    Miine worked fine for awhile, but just this week seemed to die. It tries and tries to download the movie info, but never does. It doesn't matter what zip code I enter, it says "No Cities Found" and then hangs.
    I tried looking for a pref file to kill, restarting Dashboard, or clearing the cache, but to no avail.
    Maybe it's something to do with Fandango? Doing a search on the Fandango website with my zip works fine, so maybe they changed something on their end that the widget can't work with.
    Anyone else with a similar problem
