"Date Added" values changed to be identical in some folders

Hi,
I normally sort my work files (mostly .ppts) by "date added" to help me keep track, this usually works fine. I have the date added column showing in Finder and set the Folder Options to sort by date added.
I noticed today that in some folders (but not all) the date added value has been re-set by the system to be a random date (eg 30 Jan 2015 15:28 for one folder), and the date and time added is the exact same for all the files. Obviously this means I can't sort them anymore. I was wondering why this has happened and if it can be fixed as it's a really annoying and potentially serious issue.
Running Yosemite 10.10.2 on a mid-2012 MBP.
Thanks

Hi Subha,
You can assing default values to the Variables...Fiscal Year2008; Version100...etc. so that the user need not input all the variables.
I am not sure whether you can assign a function--"on selection" of variables. For better control It would be prudent to advise users to execute a function (if need be embed a SAVE function with in the sequence) on press of a button.

Files arranged by date added, but changing file name changes date added

I've got my Downloads folder set to view (in the Finder) by "date added", a very useful feature. However, if I change a file name, the "date added" changes to that new time, and "date modified" stays the same as it was. This doesn't make sense to me... isn't date added just that, when it was added to the folder? Why would this happen? Any workarounds or suggestions?

You should use the 'File/Directory Info' functionality.
This will return the last modificatoin of the file.

How to change to Icon View for some folders but and List View for the rest

I've had a bear of a time with View options in my folders. I'd like some folders to be in Icon view and other to be in List view. For what ever reason if I change the view option of one folder it changes the view option of EVERY folder. What can I do to make this happen?

I was about to ask the same. I'd like to use icon view normally, but list view for folders containing lots of text documents. It looks like the solution is using View > Show View Options, change the folder to the view you want, and then tick the box at the top fo the dialogue for "Always open in __ view".

12.1.0.71 date added field corrupt

Using smart playlists, I select songs based on the date added like: "date added is in the last 90 days".
When I updated iTunes to 12.1.0,71 on Feb 1, a lot of my songs changed the date added to "2/1/2015" but these are old songs added years ago.
How can I get the original dated added field restored so my smart playlist will work correctly?

Hmm, that's not an error I've seen before. Was some of your media missing post install and did you reimport it?
See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash. Sadly your most recent previous library may be from the initial 12.0 upgrade last October.
Unfortunately there is no way to adjust the Date Added values or I could offer a way to export the data from an older library and reimport it into your current one.

How to tackle the dataflow problem when Value Change event always triggers after another GUI event

We know that Value change event always triggers after another GUI event. Eg, the user modifies string control, the user clicks on a boolean control. Then event boolean clicked is triggered before event string control value change.
Now suppose somehow the GUI event that must happen to subsequently trigger the Value change event can potentially affect the data that Value change event is supposed to work on. How can we tackle this problem ?
For example, in a mockup application that the grand purpose is to have user entered values in a textbox logged to a file (no missing information is accepted, and there is a boolean to determine how the information is logged).
There are 2 controls, boolean A when clicked (mouse down) will load random number in text box B. Text box B is designed with event structure VALUE change which saves whatever values user enters into text box B to a log file.
There are 3 problems when instead of clicking anywhere on the front panel after modifying text box B, the user ends up clicking on boolean control A.
1. Event mouse down on Boolean control A will execute first, modifying text box B content before the user entered values in B get saved.
2. The value of boolean A can potentially affect how textbox B is loggged.
3. The value of boolean A affects how the file is logged and this is indeterminate. Somehow when running this VI with no Highlighting, the textbox B Value change event executes -before- boolean A value is updated (F to T). When running this VI with Highlighting, the boolean A value is updated (F to T) (because we click on it) -before- textbox B value change event occurs. Why is it like this ?
Now the situation I made up seems non-sense, but I believe it resembles one way or another a problem that you might run into. How would you solve this problem elegantly ?

You can set the string control to "update while typing".
Are you sure appending the log to itself is reasonable? Wouldn't it grow without bounds if the users keeps entering strings or pressing the ingore button?
Why isn't the "constant" a diagram constant instead of a control. Is the user allowed to change it?
To reset just write empty strings or a false to local variables of the controls (renit to defaults" seems a bit heavy handed).
All you probably need is a single event case for "ignore:value change" and "String" value changed", no need for the local variable..
Also add a stop button and an event for it.
You don't need the timeout event.

Sort by date added actually sorts by album v1.0.10

When I try to sort by date added, it sorts it by album for some reason. Squash this bug please.

Hey gapdude101,
Just saw your response this evening. I did a fast search again and I found something that's solved my problem of my iTunes playlists not showing up in the same order on my iPhone or iPad Remote app. I right-clicked on the playlist in iTunes and selected Copy to Play Order, and I saw the play order on the playlist on my iPhone sync in real time to what I had on the screen in iTunes. That seems to have solved my problem. Here's a link to the other article on Apple Support on here where I found this...
"If you like the way iTunes has shuffled the play order of one of your play lists, you can use the "Copy to Play Order" shortcut menu command to make the shuffled play order the permanent play order." http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27500?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

I'm sorry I'm not aware of any "cumbersome" subpanels - unless of course you don't know what you're doing. There is this wonderful invention called a "subVI" that can be used to organize and simplify your code, or are they too "cumbersome" as well? You should really learn a bit about what you are pontificating over before you start running off at the mouth.
Mike...
I didn't want to step on your toes. No need to get personal.
Subpanels make some additional code necessary that hasn't got to do anything with the actual program. And I AM using subIVs as I wrote in my first post, which is exactly the root of the problem.
Nevertheless I now solved it in a way that comes close to what I wanted. I don't know if some of you meant your suggestions to be understood that way (at least I didn't ). The subVIs will now "insert" themselves (via invoke node) into a subpanel on the main vi, which they are given a reference of at call. This adds minimal aditional code, especially on the main VI which I want to keep as clean as possible. By clustering the panel reference into the parameters the subVIs are already given (not used in the example I attached below), there isn't even a change on the terminals of the subVIs.
I got to check now if this works well with event structures within the subVIs or if it can create the same problems like multiple event structures within a single VI.
So no global variables anymore and no writing values by property node. I don't know if this just wasn't possible in previous Labview versions I had a try at that (I guess it was 8.6 and/or 2009) or I just didn't come up with the idea back then.
And if the text wasn't that helpful, here are two screens:

Planning function to change date field value in layout

Hello experts,
I have 1 BPS layout with 2 date fields ( Start date, End date ). With a filter conditions, set of data comes in BPS layout on execution and 2 date fields also contain some value...I want to change values of these 2 dates...both the date fields are char infoobjects..in BPS layout, in planning function I got only 1 function ( Repost function ) to change the value of char infoobject based on some condition. but date field value is not the status field...i want to enter new date instead of old date..if i right exit function in that also i can change only keyfigs values..so please help me to solve this problem..
Thanks & Regards,
Priyanka Joshi

Hi Priyanka,
As of now master data planning is not so flexibly supported.
Still u can refer the below link which is enhancement of standard Repost function,and can be used to change master data.

As far as my knowledge goes u cannot directly input date in rows.

HT1399 I have an ipod shuffle 4, my playlist is in alphabetical order on my itunes, when I go to add it to my ipod it puts it into order of "date added", under "View" i can change it, but when I sync it, it immediately reverts back?!!

Yeah - not really. Sorry - but you will need to get it fixed so you can back it up. You are going to want to Restore your new iPhone from that backup when you get it, so it will really be worth it.
As soon as you get your new iPhone, set up automatic iCloud backups, or if you don't have Wifi, then it is really important to get into the habit of backing your device up weekly to iTunes.
Best of luck!

How to change "Date Added" to "Date Modified"in Open a File dialoge

Ever since updating IOS to the latest version the option to sort by "Date Modified" in the open a file dialog has been changed to "Date Added". How can I change this back to "Date Modified"?

Hmm, in OpenSolaris and Solaris Express, the date format is a preference in the Nautilus Preferences dialog. But I don't see it back in JDS 3.
One way (assuming you're using a bash shell) is:
% gnome-session-remove nautilus
% LANG=de_DE nautilus &
which works, but also switches the rest of the nautilus UI into German.
Setting LC_TIME rather than LANG in the second command should work better, because it changes only the dates/times into German. But it still uses the 12 hour clock, with "vorm." and "nachm." instead of "am" and "pm". I suppose that might be considered a bug...

Change "date added" to digits?

Is there a way to simplify the date added in Finder from for example "Saturday, Jaunary 20, 2012 10:40 PM" to just "1/20/12"?

No, there's no global setting that will change existing folders.
You can set one folder the way you want it to be, particularly (in this case) setting the sort to be by using Date Added, in the View Options window for a folder. With the folder open, press Command-J (Show View Options in View menu). In that screen make your settings, then click the Use as Defaults button at the bottom.
This will set the parameters for any new folder you then create, but will not change any existing folders.
A request has been made to provide a global reset for existing folders, but as yet has not been enacted (nor commented on as to whether it will be sometime).

Data value changes not always reflected in .jsp code

For example, I can change the data value of an output text field, run the project and find that the new value is not always what shows up. I get the old value instead. I have to then go into the .jsp code and modify the value= property to get the new text to display. The new value, however, was being displayed in the designer window. I can also change a form name or some other component ID and the .jsp code may still contain references to the old name as well as the new name. This causes runtime exceptions. I am new to Java programming . Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am using the 30-day eval version of Creator. I have tried the referesh, build only , etc., but still run into problems.

Hi,
Could you please list some steps in case there's a bug
and include the jsp source.
Also, I suggest you to get the latest updates.

Why did the date added change in itunes

All the dates have changed in my itunes library under "date added" to recent dates. What happened?

What are you talking about?

Is there any way to change Date Added??

Just lookin to change the date added on a group of tracks?

Programs like TuneRanger and SuperSync are supposed to be able to combine itunes library files. Whether they can preserve date added is unknown - I kind of think not, because it isn't specifically mentioned as a feature. But you could email and ask their support folks.
It's kind of frustrating that the itunes XMl library file has the date added info in it, but that is the one field that does not get preserved when re-creating the ITL file from it.

HT1451 Change "Date Added" of all tracks

This method is working, but the "Date Added" field of all tracks is reset to the current date, so all history information is lost. How can we force the "Date added" field to conserve its value ?

Transpose either +7 or -5.
