Date number on iCAL in dock reads JUL 17

Hi,
I am new to MAC and can't figure out why the the iCAL date on the dock always displays JUL 17. If I open the calendar and quit the date on the dock will reflect the current date. Whenever I reboot it defaults back to JUL 17. Anyway to change this?

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
July 17 is shown when iCal isn't running. To have the current date keep iCal running.
Best wishes

Why is the date on the iCal icon the 17th July!?

I was amusing a friend recently showing him how the date on the iCal icon changes to the current date when you open it up and he asked an interesting question ... why does the icon show the date as the 17th July when the application is not open?
I had never really thought about it before so decided to search the internet for a reasonable answer ... the following are a list if interesting events which occured on the 17th July (none of which however seem likely to be the reason for the icons date):
1995 - The Nasdaq stock index closes above the 1000 mark for the first time.
1989 - First flight of the B2 Stealth Bomber.
1987 - The Dow Jones Industrial Average closes above the 2500 mark for the first time.
1976 - Viking 1 lands on Mars.
1975 - Russian and American astronauts meet in space as the Apollo and Soyuz spacecraft's dock successfully.
1964 - A new land speed record is set by the Bluebird (driven by Sir Donald Campbell) reaching a speed of 429mph.
1955 - Opening of Disneyland in California.
1936 - Start of Spanish Civil War.
1917 - The British Royal Family change their name to Windsor in place of their German family name Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
1790 - The first sewing machine is patented by Thomas Saint.
1453 - End of the One Hundred Years War.
I then came across this page on the Apple site ... http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2002/jul/17ical.html ... which gives the obvious answer that the reason for the icons date is simply that the program was first introduced at MacWorld on the 17th July 2002! Simple!

Change cellular data number on ipad mini

how do I change
cellular data number on ipad mini

That is a carrier assigned number in Cellular capable iPads and cannot be changed unless your Cell carrier does it.
It you want to change the Cell number for messages, the Cell number is one that is associated with an iPhone using the same Apple ID as your Mini. You would need to change the number associated with the Apple ID for that to happen.
What exactly do you want to accomplish?

I somehow erased everything (all important dates) off my ical on my mac and I'm afraid that if I connect my iphone that it will do the same there. Will my iphone sync the dates that are on the phone and add them to the ical? Or will it delete everything

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

Cellular data number shows unknown

My cellular data number is displayed as "unknown". How do I correct this.

@robdrage. Thanks for your comment. You are correct that in this user to user forum I can't expect Apple or my carrier to answer the question and I don't. The comment was not directed at them (sorry that it sounded that way) but that I have yet to find a statement on either companies site regarding the number and my first contact with my carrier was not helpful.
The entry is more about correcting some misinformation about "Hidden Data" and "Does not have a Cell Number" in this post. The Cell Number is actually "burned" to SIM by some carriers (not all), because the cellular number on the card is not required for the handshake, therefore some don't do it or forget. The SIM card can (iPhones do not) also carry information about what services you have, messages and phonebooks. Some people actually in an "unlocked" world switch phones by swapping the SIM.

Converting/Importing Now Up To Date files to iCal

Is there a way to import all my Now Up To Date info into iCal?

Brad,
Since you used the word "convert" it implies to me that you are moving from the windows version.
If that is true, you may find some help at Now Software Support.

Fix for tiresome, "iCal can't read this calendar file. No events have..."

I've read a hundred posts about this problem, but the typical answers--erase blank space at the top of the file, rename the file "ics", etc. don't work.
When I attempt to open a calendar file from Delta.com and many other websites, I get this error:

Hi,
There are various reasons why iCal won't read that file.
1. Spaces at the end of lines (eg after the last "END:VEVENT"). I'm not sure if this is incorrect, but iCal does not like it.
2. The format of some of the dates/times is incorrect. (see http://www.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.html#sec-4.3.12 and http://www.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.html#sec-4.3.4 if you're interested).
3. The UIDs for the two events are not unique. Perhaps this is something you edited? (see http://www.apps.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.html#sec-4.8.4.7 )
This works in my iCal:

Calendar from Now-Up-To-Date sync wtih iCal and iPhone

I've been struggling to sync my current Now Up To Date calendar with my iphone and I think I have a solution for at least a one-way sync. Here's a copy of my post from another forum. I hope it helps others....
Does anyone else have a better solution?
I've been using my Treo as a go-between for Now Up To Date and iCal with software from The Missing Sync. This seems to work as a one-way sync from NUD to my iCal. I sent an email to them asking for help and here's their reply:
Description of problem:
Hi. I've been trying to use your software to get my data from Now Up To Date (NUD) to iCal so that I can have it on my iPhone. I know you don't support the iPhone, but maybe you can see if my approach is valid at all. I have a profile in The Missing Sync that only uses the NUD conduit. It is able to get any changes to my Treo 700p just fine. Then I made another profile that only uses the Mark/Space Tasks and Events conduits to get that data from the Treo to iCal. Somehow it worked a few times, but not any more. Is my idea a good one? Should I keep trying or give it up?
Steps to Reproduce:
Here's my steps.
1) Profile named NUD Treo. Has active only the NUD conduit, set to synchronize. I run the sync from the Treo and all changes I made in NUD are transfered to the Treo just fine.
2) I change to the profile named Treo iCal. I have slected the two condiuts, Mark/Space Events and Mark/Space Tasks. I have it set to synchronize all categories. When I run the sync from the Treo, it works for a bit, but none of the changes show up in iCal. Even though the items show in the Treo's calendar, they don't transfer to iCal.
A couple of times when I did the transfer I saw a comment "pushing from handheld".... and on those syncs the data showed up. But it doesn't always say that and the data doesn't transfer on thos syncs.
The reply from The Missing Sync's Support:
Hello,
Yes, that procedure should work.
First, update to 5.1.2 if you haven't done so yet. http://www.markspace.com/ftp/missingsyncpalmos5.1.2.dmg
Then follow these directions to have the Palm overwrite the Mac's Address Book and iCal.

Plugin check (incorrectly) says my acrobat plugin is out of date and takes me to a reader install

Windows XP
FF 20.0
I have Adobe Acrobat X 10.1.6. and the plugin checker says its out of date.
I don't think it is, it's just not Abobe Reader.
I don't want to have both Acrobat and Reader. When I do, then there's two different plug-ins in FF, but they both have the same names, but they seem independent and it just seems messy. It looks as if the same plugin is on there twice, one updated and one not updated, but it doesn't seem possible to remove either one. Which is actually good, b/c one is for Acrobat and one is for Reader, which I didn't realize until I started looking into all this mess. Also, there's no point in me having Reader if I have Acrobat.
It's weird that the plugin checker says the Acrobat plugin is out of date and directs me to the Reader 11 download to update it, eventhough I already have Reader 11 (thanks to the plugin checker). In other words, the one that is updated is Reader, but the one that is supposedly out of date just directs me to a DL that I already have installed. Sorry if its confusing.
Now I downloaded it, and have since uninstalled it, but it seems well-known that there can be issues with dl'ing Reader when Acrobat is already uninstalled (or something), as well as when uninstalling one or the other, so now I am nervous, because I didn't take any precautionary measures when dl'ing or uninstalling Reader.
I almost feel like I should uninstall everything (if possible) and just start fresh.
Anyway, point is, the plugin checker is wrong, right?

Hi jonadelman, if you have 10.1.6, you are current. It's just that the plugin checker doesn't know that both 10.1.6 and 11.0.2 are current.

As we are having a problem explicit with Adobe Reader 11.0.07, we are interested in news and dates for coming updates to Adobe Reader. Can I find information about this anywhere ?

Please use a shorter title in your subject line and not post the entire question in therre. (See the subject line I created.) There is also no such word as "datas". Data is already plural.
Please read http://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask. Your question is hard to read because you aren't using proper punctuation and capitalization of your sentences. It looks like one run-on sentence.
Beyond that, it is impossible to help you solve our problem with just your question. Please provide some more information. Perhaps even attach code we can look at. Show us what the data you are sending is supposed to look like, and what it actually looks like.

I'm using a 1D Arrary with 27 different elements and would like to send those data over UDP Write and UDP Read functions.

I'm using a 1D array with 27 different elements. I would like to transfer that data over a UDP connection, and read it back by using UDP connections.
But I would like to read 3 elements at a time (On read side) and send those to 9 different ports.
Note: the data will go to only one PC with one Network Address)
* 1st elements (0,1,2) and send to port #XXX to see those 1st 3 elements.
* continue until the elements reaches up to 27
This is what I have done but I'm finding myself in pitfalls...
Send side:
I'm using a UDP Open connection on send side to send my data. So with selected a Source Port, I have created a UDP Op
en connection. I�m using only one source port to send all the data across the channel. I would like to read 1st 3 elements and send those data across with an assigned Destination port. I would like to do that for 9 times b/c there are 27 elements in the array. So I�m using a For Loop and setting N count to 9. So I�m not getting any errors when I execute and no answer on the other side at all.
Read side:
I�m using a UDP Open connection to read in the data with port #. I�m using while loop to with Boolean inside by making a true all the time. Inside that While loop, I�m using For Loop to read the 3 elements data a time and send to a right port address. (As start out I was just trying to see if it works for only one port).

You are not getting any errors because UDP is a connectionless protocol. It does not care if anyone receives it. Your example will work fine with the following considerations.
(1) Don't use the generic broadcast address (255.255.255.255).
(2) You are listening on port 30000. So why are you sending to port 1502, nobody will receive anything there.
The destination port of the outgoing connection must match the server port of the listener. (The source port is irrelevant, set ot to zero and the system will use a free ephemeral port).
(3) On the receiving side, you are not indexing on the received string, thus you only retain the last received element. Then you place the indicator outside the while loop where it never gets updated. :-(
(4) Do yourself a favor and don't micromanage how the data is sent across. Just take the entire array, flatten it to string, send it across, receive it, unflatten back to array, and get on with the task.
(You can do the same with any kind of data).
I have modified your VI with some reasonable default values (destination IP = 127.0.0.1 (localhost)), thus you can run both on the same PC for testing "as is". Just run the "read" first, then every time you run "send", new data will be received.
