Date/time does not update

I am having the same problem with my iMac and new MacBookPro 13" with retina.   If I leave the computer on overnight (it goes to sleep and I wake it up in the morning), if I use the automatic feature in Word, QuickBooks, Quicken to insert today's date automatically, it always inserts the date the computer was last booted and not the current date.  So, for example, this morning it is January 14, 2013 however my iMac has been on but sleeping overnight.  The last time I shut down was Saturday, January 12th and I booted up on the morning of Sunday, January 13th.  This morning when I opened word to write a letter I used the automatic date feature and the computer inserted yesterday's date and not today's.  The same thing happened with checks I attempted to print from QuickBooks.  This is a problem I have been experiencing since I bought the computer in September and is also a problem with my brand new MacBookPro bought right after Thanksgiving.
Can someone help me solve this problem short of shutting down at midnight each day and restarting at 12:01?
Best,
Todd

Update, I am actually running Mac OS X (10.8.2) but it didn't give me that option.

  • 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!!!

  • NY Times does not update news

    My New York Times app does not update the news each day.
    I have to delete the app and reinstall to get the latest news.
    What is the problem?
    I have a NY Times digital subscription. Do I somehow have a way to sign in as
    a subscriber?

    Permissions problem?
    I don't have subscription but I can see updated apps when I pull down it says "Release to Refresh".
    What happens when you do it?
    Also there is a settings in the app for Push Notifications as well as update frequency.

  • Auto sync of Date & Time does not work on startup

    Is there a reason why out of two entire labs of like 60 mac's that when restarted, a number of them will not look to sync up the date & time. I have every computer to do so, but for some odd reason, on a shutdown/restart, random computers will not sync up and ge the proper time.
    The correct time is needed because these computers are running on with the AD Plugn, and AD will not allow computer user to login to the computer using AD user credentials if the time is not matched to the server. So what is happening, after a shutdown/restart, the computers can be off as much as a couple of mins, causing the users not able to login.
    The only way right now to fix the issue is for me to log into the computer using my admin account, just open up the date/time preferences, and then with out doing anything, it will sync up to the correct time/date, and then I just restart the computer. Once restarted, users can login.
    Any ideas ??
    Tks.

    Hi Henning
    Thanks for contacting SAP and providing with most of the details required to analyze the issue.
    As per note 1235408,this is a known issue with Flex2.
    Visual Composer UI elements are displayed relative to the browser size and not relative to each other.
    Solution: None; there is no relative layout available for the Flex 2 runtime.
    Workaround: Choose the "Actual size" option in the "Fit contents" list in the Configure task panel of the UI elements.
    Please refer to the note for workaround on the issue.
    See mentioned note if this also applies to your problem.

  • Acquire sound data time does not match with the waveform graph

    i am doing a basic data logging system to see the frequency behavior of sound. What I did is to use the "acquire sound" system of Labview and connect a waveform graph to see the time-domain behavior of sound.
    However, if I input a duration of 4 seconds (or any time), I will only see 75% of the sound (that is 3 seconds). I tried to extract the values using write to file to see if the waveform graph is the one who have the delay. however, the data also showed me 3seconds.
    I will attach here the picture of the simple program i created.
    I hope someone can explain to me why this happen.
    I am using the soundcard and microphone of a laptop. I also tried using a computer microphone. I have tried this program to all computers I can use (2 laptops: SAMSUNG, ASUS, and one desktop computer core i5)

    Hi all,
    have you find a fix for this issue? Im facing the same situation, using Complex type, and String data type both in the service and Bi publisher. We are consuming CC&B services, and we have noticed this error appears when BIPublisher is running on WebLogic (10.3) but it does not appear when BIPublisher is running on OC4J , of course running the same report on both application servers.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot, regards

  • Firefox remembers old data and does not update properly. What is the problem?

    I follow my investments using the investment company's website. Today's data using Firefox does not reflect completley today's updates but retains some of yesterday's data. Why? What do I need to do?

    Firefox should reload frames from the website if you reload and bypass the cache.<br />
    Make sure that you do not use bookmarks that have GET data appended to the links (?xxx=xxx)
    Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":

  • FINDER: File Date & Time Slow to Update

    In finder windows my date and time is slow to "update" when I've changed a file. Viewing by "Date Modified" is worthless sometimes. I change & save a file, view in finder and the date & time has not updated. Update times vary from immediate to minutes...
    Surely this isn't typical? The systme can't handle getting file date&time updated?
    10.4.7 on Dual 1Gz machine.
    comments?

    Hi, Greg.
    I've seen this happen from time to time myself. In my case it has been very rare and I've been unable to pin down a cause. It appears to be a bit of a glitch in Finder. It's usually seen with server-mounted volumes even though it was supposedly fixed in Tiger after being a regular issue with shared volumes in Panther.
    Some ideas:
    • Temporarily switching the View from say List to Icon and Back often corrects this.
    • You might want to take a look at Nudge.
    • If it's happening at high frequency, purging your Finder preferences may help. See my "Finder Issues? How to delete its preferences" FAQ.
    • You may want to try Path Finder, an alternative Finder. You can use Finder and Path Finder simultaneously.
    Good luck!

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • HT5824 my contact list does not update to its current state. After I sync to Itunes or after I back up to I cloud  Also I did a doccuments and data restore and it still didnt change. How do I fix this?

    My contact list does not update to its current state after I sync it to itunes or back it up to icloud  I did a documents and data reset and the contact list still didnt change.. How do I fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Presenter Display does not update current slide or run timer ...

    Hey - I'm a newbee, so forgive me is this is something obvious. When I run my presentation, the Presenter's Display does not update the current slide as the show progresses. Nor does the timer run. Nor are the notes displayed, even though I have checked all the appropriate prefs for all three. Help!

    Yes, AIFF or WAV should work. I've never tried importing a SDII file.
    A few more caveats, however:
    1) A Recorded Soundtrack (i.e. with the Builds and Transitions timed to the audio) may not play back properly in sync if the slideshow is created on one computer and played-back on another; the durations of Builds and Transitions are dependent on the processor speed of the playback computer. SO be sure to check your synchronization on the playback computer! You may need to make some adjustments.
    2) It has been reported in numerous threads in this Forum that Synchronizations also frequently fail when exported to other applications - especially when running OS 10.5.
    3) Synchronization also fails if the slideshow is played back as a hyperlink. I've found that slideshows will playback just fine if a "stand-alone" Keynote presentation. If linked to others via hyperlinks, however, you will have to trigger all Builds and Transitions yourself.
    All of these are known problems with Keynote and it's lamented implementation of audio.

    Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.

    Hi Gregg,
    Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.

  • Mobile.me Calendar does not update/sync on iPhone

    Since I did my upgrade to the new version of Mobile.me Calendar (as requested by Apple!), my iPhone no longer shows entries that I have typed into the Mobile.me Calender website. I no longer use iCal because Apple said it would not work with the new version of Calendar on Mobile.me, so I did the upgrade to stay in sync with calendars on my mobile.me site and iPhone, but the iPhone does not update. I deleted my calendar entries on my iPhone hoping that the Mobile.me would re-sync the data, but that didn't happen either. Here is my info:
    iPhone version 3.1.3(7E18)   Model MA712LL (first original iPhone)
    What else can I tell you to help me please?

    Please always post your System details when you have a question. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
    Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
    Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
    Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).
