Date stuck in preferences

The date is stuck in the time/date section of my preferences folder on 5/5/08. I can change the month & the year, but the date of the 5th will not change. The real confusion is that it appears correctly in the time/date window at the right top of my desktop screen. It's causing some issues with my .mac syncing from one computer to another. Any ideas on how to change it?

OK, I logged in under another name, time/date worked perfectly. Went back in under my name, removed plist file you suggested & put on desktop, could not change time & date again. Do I need to trash it? Thought I'd ask before I loose something important. Thanks for the help.

    importing ical data stuck- how do I stop it?

    Greetings,
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    --- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    4. Launch iCal and test.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do you fix the date (day number only) in menu bar to match correct Date and Time Preferences?

    My date and time preferences all show up as correct and I get "Sun 10:54 AM" in the menu bar (correct), but when I click that to quickly get the day's date, I get "Sunday, August 5, 2011".  The '5' is the only thing that is wrong, and it has remained '5' for the last 3 days, even thought the Date & Time Preferences are correct.  Is there any easy fix for this?  I don't know if August will change to September, but the day of the week has kept up with time!

    I know how to get the full date and time, etc. to show up on the menu bar (and it shows up correctly), so it's just a little 'glitchy' thing that when you click on the date/time in the menu bar, the greyed date remains on the '5th' of August - sort of like that Groundhog Day movie!

  • Date stuck on July22. What can I do?

    My date is stuck on July 22 and I cannot figure out how to reset it. The time sets itself fine, but the date is stuck.

    Is it possible you hardcoded in the date when you created a custom date display format?
    To check this open System Preferences->Language & Text and select Region from the tabs.
    Now look at the Dates format box. Select customize the box should look something like this
    If July 22 is in there as plain text (not in a blue field) that date is hard coded in. Delete it and set th format as you want it.

  • How do I add to the list of servers in 'Date & Time' System Preferences?

    Earlier versions of the Mac OS (9 and below, I believe) allowed a user to add to the list of time servers in what was then the Date and Time Control Panel. Now, under OS X (Tiger), I am able to select from the three servers that Apple provides, but I would like to add my own. I am able to paste a new one into the field of the 'Date & Time' preference pane, but it will not be permanently added to the list. There must be a way to do this, no?
    Thanks!

    it will not be permanently added to the list.
    It should stay there as long as you don't change it.

  • Problem in Date Format when user chages the date format in preferences

    I want to generalize my code so that user can change what ever Date format he wants, I will get the date from the page in the format yyyy-mm-dd, and if the Date Format is
    set to MM/dd/yyyy in prefernces i need to use MM/dd/yyyy and if the Date Format is set to dd-Mon-yyyy in prefernces i need to use dd-MMM-yy, so my question is how to know what Date format is set in the preference so that i can have all the possible date format for inserting the date
    Thanks
    Babu

    Babu,
    The date format in OAF Pages is controlled by profile ICX: Date format mask.This profile can be set at site as well as user level for the individual users to set the Date format.
    But I would advice not to go for setting different profile values at user level, because i remember some old threads, where seeded Oracle pages fail, as code their is not generalised to handle date formats.
    If your are planning to have this in ur custom page, go ahead, but do check the entire flow is working fine for different values of this profile at user level.

  • How to store persistent data for portlet preference

    i use PortletPreference to store user's personalized data, it works fine. but after i restart the weblogic portal 8.13, the value got reseted by the default preference value. how can i store the persistent data even after restart the weblogic portal server? thanks.

    I am using -
    ProfileWrapper myProfile = getUserProfile(request);
    myProfile.setProperty(propertyset, propertyname, value);
    This way you can customize a property for a user.
    Hope this helps.

  • Photoshop CS6 Release Build Date Implies Beta Preferences Valid

    Interestingly, it looks like the released code is closely related to the beta code...  Build date and time of the released files are March 15, 2012 at 3:22 am (someone was burning the midnight oil).
    I guess that says they didn't feel anything was too terribly wrong with the beta version.
    I only mention this because it seems to mean that retaining the preferences, workspace, et. al., that we have set up during the testing of the CS6 beta version will still be perfectly valid. 
    Normally I would advise to delete preferences during the uninstall of the beta and recreate everything, but (unless one of the Adobe folks chimes in here and says otherwise) I'd say it's likely to be okay to keep them.  That would be kind of nice not to have to re-setup Photoshop CS6.
    -Noel

    Well, given that Photoshop CS6 strives to port preferences from older versions, one might think that it might have been an Adobe design goal to try not to leave the folks who tried the public out in the cold by making them go through the process of setting up CS6 twice.
    I am a little surprised Adobe did not rebuild the software before release per some of the beta feedback, since some of the bugs reported seemed pretty serious (thinking, for example, of the one where under some condition it can corrupt text in a PSD file so that it's uneditable)...  Clearly they place a LOT of emphasis on their system testing, and apparently no bug was considered a "show stopper".
    But I imagine they're working hard to get an update out.  Also they must be planning to update Camera Raw to 7.1 soon, to bring back Camera support already in 6.7.

  • Macbook Pro's time/date and internet preferences reset at battery death.

    I have a late 2009 Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Since a month ago, whenever I'm not able to get to my charger in time and my battery dies and I reboot it, the time and date settings are set back to December 31, 2000 7.00 pm. I have to reenter my internet and wifi information to connect to the web. No files are lost, but it is still an annoying problem to have to deal with every time my battery dies. This usually happens if I am not able to plug in the charger and turn it back on within about 5 minutes. Is this a common problem? Is anyone else suffering this?
    Any suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated and loved.
    Thank you.
    ~Incho

    This is common only when the battery in question is so old and tired that it lacks enough oomph even to preserve the date and time after the machine shuts down. You probably need a new battery, and at least until you get one, you need to avoid being in a situation where you can't plug into AC as soon as the low-battery warning appears. Or perhaps your battery is so far gone that the warning never appears, in which case you need a new battery even sooner.
    What does System Profiler > Power say about the condition, cycle count, and full charge capacity of your battery, and is your MBP a 13", 15" or 17" model?

  • ITunes: Editting Meta data stuck / bad public atom

    Hi All,
    I've leopard with itunes 7.5 (fully uptodate)
    I've some mp4 files (converted using QT pro) which play fine in QT, iTunes and my apple TV.
    However, if I edit the meta data, to include TV show data, this works, but as soon as you click OK, the status box appears and says 'writing tags'
    This doesn't go away. If you cancel this, the meta data appears to have been written.
    However, whilst they will play in iTunes, these files WON'T play in my apple TV (sync'd) and produce an erro message in QT ro (Bad public atom)
    I haven't tried writing the tags in QT (not sure if you can)
    Any ideas? My movie list on Apple TV has grown exponetially recently

    I'm having the same issue (under Tiger), except mine won't even play in iTunes or QT after the invalid public atom error. I was sure glad I had backups.
    It doesn't happen to all files, though. Sometimes after clicking Cancel, it turns out the tags have been written and the file still plays OK (and shows up under TV Shows, which is my main aim in doing this to begin with). I haven't figured out if there's a pattern to which files are affected.
    I read in another thread about looking at atoms with AtomicParsely, available here: <http://atomicparsley.sourceforge.net/>. Perhaps someone more tech-savvy than me can use that to figure out what's going on.
