Date Time Original & Date Time Digitized bug

I have noticed that in Lightroom (1.1 or 1.2, doesn't matter) my photographs display WRONG Date Time Original & Date Time Digitized in the Metadata section. Both are exactly 30 minutes behind the actual time the photos were shot - eg., if I have shot a photo at 7:00pm, it will be shown as though it was shot at 6:30pm. Bridge correctly displays both this info. Any suggestions on how to rectify this info in Lightroom? Thanks,

If you are shooting RAW, take care with "Edit capture time". There is
evidence that it causes a rewrite of the RAW file by LR. This
kind of a rewrite is dangerous, sometimes causing corruption. See

How to convert raw data to original data

Hi,
I'm using db10g.
I have stored the blob of a word doc into the database using dbms_lob package.
Now during retrieval, i'm getting the raw data using the code
dbms_lob.read( l_lob, l_amt, l_off, l_raw );
l_raw is of type raw.
I want to convert the raw data to original string.
Please Help
Thanks

I think I have clearly told that i have blobs of different files in my database.
The files are of different type, I have blob of pdf,doc,html,xml,gif etc...
and in the procedure i have posted(get_file_contents), it is a database procedure and i'm calling it from the forms.
So i'm passing the file_name and file_id to the procedure(file_name and file_id are the columns in the table.
Table 'Blob_Details' have 4 columns file_id,file_name,file_type,theblob) and a varchar variable final_data.
final_data varchar(32000)
and in the procedure i'm taking the blob from database, reading it using dbms_lob.read in a loop and casting it to varchar and storing the contents in the variable final_data.
So coming out of the loop, the variable final_data will have the contents of the given file.BLOB data (such as word or excel documents and PDFs containing images etc.) are Binary data, not Character data. Converting that raw binary data to VARCHAR will cause issues.
If you have loaded a binary file and stored it on the database as a BLOB (Binary data) and you now want to create the original file from that BLOB, you will simply need to read the BLOB data from the database into BLOB variable and process it in chunks, using UTL_FILE to write out, in Binary mode, that data to a file with the appropriate filename. The actual process is quite simple...
As sys user:
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY MY_FILES AS 'c:\myfiles';
GRANT READ,WRITE ON DIRECTORY MY_FILES TO myuser;As myuser:
DECLARE
   -- Data Variables
   v_blob             BLOB;
   v_data_length      NUMBER;
   -- Loop Control Variables
   v_offset           NUMBER := 1;
   v_chunk   CONSTANT NUMBER := 32767; -- maximum chunk size
   -- UTL_FILE variables
   fh                 UTL_FILE.file_type;
BEGIN
   v_blob := ... populate the blob variable here
   v_data_length := DBMS_LOB.getlength (v_blob);
   -- Open the file
   fh := UTL_FILE.fopen ('MY_FILES', 'myfile.dat', 'wb', v_chunk);
   LOOP
      -- Exit when our file offset is bigger than our file
      EXIT WHEN v_offset > v_data_length;
      -- Write the output chunk by chunk
      UTL_FILE.put_raw (fh, DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR (v_blob, v_chunk, v_offset), TRUE);
      -- Increment the offset by the amount written
      v_offset := v_offset + v_chunk;
   END LOOP;
   -- Close the file
   UTL_FILE.fclose (fh);
END;

Problems accessing time capsule data "The operation can't be completed because the original [...]"

So as my title would suggest, I'm having time capsule issues.
First of all, I'm running a MBPret late 2013. Currently I'm trying to setup my time capsule in my university dorm room for two reasons:
1) I want to use the internet they provide us.
2) I want to use time capsule as a backup drive.
I am not permitted to use wifi as per my contract with the university, unfortunate, but fine, I can use ethernet, I have the ethernet -> thunderbolt adapter.
Now, thus far, I've setup my time capsule normally (this is second setup not the first) and I performed a hard reset before connecting it all here. Before here it was setup at my previous house. After that I disabled the wireless and enabled secure shared disks "with device password".
I don't have internet access yet, though I believe this is a problem on the administrator side not mine, but the real problem is that I cannot access the data folder on my time capsule in finder. I've tried erasing the volume, hard resetting and setting up again, I keep getting the same error message:
"The operation can’t be completed because the original item for "Data" can't be found"
Any suggestions?
Regards

If you don't have applecare you will need to pay if you want the genuine article but your problem is familiar and Apple support is likely to say your the first person they have ever heard of with this problem.. even when every second post here refers to it.
Here is my standard list. Work through it and tell me if you succeed.
The cause is Yosemite btw.
A factory reset of the TC is the start.. it is required so you can find it again.
Factory reset universal
Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
Setup the TC again.
ie Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the hard disk doing this.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg TCgen5 and TCwifi for basestation and wireless respectively.
Even better if the issue is more wireless use TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense. But this can be tried in the second round.
2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. Ensure the TC always takes the same IP address.. you will need to do this on the main router using dhcp reservation.. or a bit more complex setup using static IP in the TC. But this is important.. having IP drift all over the place when Yosemite cannot remember its own name for 5 min after a reboot makes for poor networking. If the TC is main router it will not be an issue.
4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. but this change will mess up your TM backup.. so be prepared to do a new full backup. Sorry.. keep this one for second round if you want to avoid a new backup.
5. Mount the TC disk in the computer manually.
In Finder, Go, Connect to server from the top menu,
Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever the TC ip is which you have now made static. As a router by default it is 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with that unless you know what you are doing).
You can use name.. SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your TC name.. local is the default domain of the TC and doesn't change.
However names are not so easy as IP address.. nor as reliable. At least not in Yosemite they aren't. The domain can also be an issue if you are not plugged or wireless directly to the TC.
6. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
You might need to do some more work on the laptop itself. eg Reset the PRAM.. has helped some people. Clean install of the OS is also helpful if you upgrade installed.
Tell us how you go.
Someone posted a solution.. See this thread.
Macbook can't find Time Capsule anymore
Start from the bottom and work up.. I have a list of good network practice changes but I have avoided Yosemites bug heaven.
This user has had success and a few others as well.

Yosemite has serious DNS bug in the networking application.. here is the lets say more arcane method of fixing it by doing a network transplant from mavericks.

Date Time Original different in Lightroom and Bridge

Why is it that the Date Time Original in Lightroom is affected by whatever time zone the PC is set to? This is not the case in Bridge.
Example:
I fly from San Francisco to Washington DC and set my notebook's time zone from Pacific Time to Eastern Time upon arrival. I also make the necessary adjustment to the Time on my camera. I shoot a photo at 6pm in Washington DC, upload it to my notebook and import it into Lightroom. Lightroom shows a Date Time Original of 6pm. So does Bridge. So far so good.
I return back to San Francisco and set my notebook's time zone back to Pacific Time. In Lightroom, the Date Time Original of that photo is now 3pm. In Bridge, it still gives a Date Time Original of 6pm.
Confusing? Yes, especially when traveling across lots of different time zones. In some cases, the Date Time Original will change not only the time, but the Date as well (if the change crosses midnight).
Try it for yourself. Take a look at the Date Time Original of any given photo in Lightroom, change the Time Zone on your PC, and see the Time change for yourself.
Since Bridge and Lightroom are both Adobe products, I have to wonder why they display EXIF times differently. Is this a bug? Or intentional?

I have been als been plagued by LR displaying the capture time to be, say 3 AM (03:00), when I know I took the picture at 1 PM (13:00). I decided to try and see why this happens. With the help of Phil Harvey's exiftool, I can see that my Canon cameras embed the time into the EXIF data without any time zone information i.e.: Date/Time Taken = 2008:04:02 16:09:23.
Here is what I found:
If the image is now edited with Bridge, the information is changed to: Date/Time Taken = 2008:04:02 16:09:23-08:00 (time zone of the editing computer for the date the image was made. In this case the date was before daylight savings time started.)
When edited with GeoSetter (good for adding GPS information) the information is changed to: Date/Time Taken = 2008:04:02 16:09:23+02:00 (time zone for Cairo where the picture was taken.)
Lastly edited with LR, the information is changed to: Date/Time Taken = 2008:04:02 16:09:23-08:00
When the above images are viewed in LR, using PDT, they display the time as 17:09:23 except for the image tagged with the Cairo time, which displays 07:09:23. If the computer's time zone is changed the displayed time changes accordingly.
If the images are displayed with Photoshop CS3 all the times are correctly displayed as 16:09:23 as one would expect.
It appears that the factoring in of the time zone into the displayed time was a conscious decision by the Adobe designers. A decision that several of us are not happy with.

After reformatting my 1 Tb WD ext drive and tinkering with the "exclude these items" list, I now get the following error message from Time Machine:Are you sure you want to back up to the same device your original data is on? the WD disk has mounted??

After reformatting my 1 Tb WD ext drive and tinkering with the "exclude these items" list, I now get the following error message from Time Machine: "Are you sure you want to back up to the same device your original data is on?" I've reformatted in Disk Utilities...not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Not sure what you mean by "booted" from it.
If the Mac OS is installed on the external drive, then it's possible to start up from it, just as you do from your internal drive. Please open the Startup Disk preference pane in System Preferences, and verify that your internal drive is selected as the startup disk.
Assuming that's the case, then it may be that your TM settings have been corrupted. Turn off TM, then move or delete the file /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist. Turn TM back on, recreate your settings, and try again.

Time and date reset bug

hu guys, recently ive been experiencing a time and date reset bug, sometimes when i open up my computer it says something like your date is set to (i forgot the exact date but the year is 2001) so i change it back to the correct time and date, im not sure how i got the bug, can anyone help me fix this problem, its beginning to be annoying. thanks in advance!!

Sherwin,
Those symptoms indicate that you need to get your backup (PRAM) battery replaced.If your computer does not retain parameter RAM (PRAM) settings when it is turned off, this generally indicates that the battery needs to be changed.;~)

How do you convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date

Hi everyone! does anyone know how to convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date? Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip and Evon all replace the original timecode with the date of modification. This is very frustrating when you are trying to keep the chronology right. I know that if you upload the files to iMovie from one device the chronology isn't a problem, but I'm adding video files from a couple of iPhones and a couple of camcorders. any help much appeciated.

Burning photos onto dvd, loses the original date and time of photo

I'm trying to burn some photos onto dvd, but it marks all the files 'created date' and 'modified date' as today, rather than keeping the original date and time that the picture was taken. Is there a way around this?

Looks like that error is associated with bad or incompatible media. See this thread:

Date/time original not set in EXIF

When importing TIF files without metadata in its header (e.g. from a scanner) using a metadata preset that does include the "date/time original" this date is ONLY set in the IPTC data block, not in the EXIF data block. This data item is supposed to be shared between IPTC, EXIF and XMP according to the metadata working group spec.
Is this an error or a feature of LR?
The only way I know to enter the "date/time original" into the EXIF block in LR is by editing the "edit/capture time" (via Library/Metadata) and shifting the time by 0 hours. This then copies the IPTC date into the EXIF block. Also works in batch.

It is the internal backup battery, but replacing it is not simple. Also, new internal batteries are hard to find. You will see a lot of "used" batteries offered--somewhat like buying used chewing gum, IMHO.
You don't say which of the many PowerBook variants you have, but OWC sells new replacement backup batteries only for the 1.67ghz PBs with 17-inch monitors:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/PRAMPBG417K/
Instructions for battery replacement are in these service guides:
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/PowerBook_G4_Aluminum_Series
NOTE: Apparenlty, 12-inch PowerBooks do not have internal backup batteries. You will see from these instructions that replaceing the batery--assuming you can find one--is not a trivial matter.

LR5 Batch rename all photos to CAPTURE DATE+CAPTURE TIME+ORIGINAL FILENAME

Hello there,
Does anyone know of a way to get LR5 to batch rename all it’s photos to CAPTURE DATE+CAPTURE TIME+ORIGINAL FILENAME?
I know the data is in there somewhere but my DATE+ORIGINAL FILENAME import rename preset has named all our photos with the date photos were imported not created (eeek!)
Thanks in advance for any input,
Alex

If you are using Macintosh, you could also try purchasing A Better Finder Rename 9—I love it, and you can create droplets for all your file-renaming chores.
Beware: such app is best used *before* importing.
If you rename (outside Lightroom) after importing, your files will go missing and you'll have to re-link (or god forbid: re-import). Maybe that will be OK with you, and maybe it won't..
Also, such app has no idea what the original filename was, so in this case it would not do what the OP wants.

When changing appointment on outlook after time they back on original time and date

I have user that when makes a change to a meeting and sends the update to the recipients, they get the new meeting request and it updates on their calendar with the correct time and date. Then for
a brief time or past day the senders calendar will show the change then disappear and the original time and date pop back up again on all users get the meeting.
Time zone on all pc's same, date/hour correctly.
All with windows 7 + Outlook 2010 (+ sp1, full update).
I have Exchange 2013
any help and tips will be appreciate
Thank's

Hi Rdanny,
Do you mean both Organizer and Participants' meeting back on original time and date?
Does the Organizer give others delegation permission?
Does this issue always occur or just once?
How about changing time in OWA? If you didn't try it, please try to change the meeting time in OWA for testing.
If in OWA, this issue disappeared, it seems an issue on the Outlook client side.
I suggest run Outlook under safe mode to avoid some AVs and add-ins.
I suggest try to re-create the Organizer's profile to refresh the caches.
Also try to check whether there is any related error message in the App Log.
Thanks

Blank exif date time original field in some files (scanned images)

I have had some issues with scanned files or psd files where the date time original field does not exist or is blank. Mostly with scanned files. I would like to edit the field and fix the date; but the EXIF doesn't exist on scanned images or is a shorter data set excluding the date time original field.

Lightroom won't update or insert missing EXIF date fields into master files. However, if you export a file with a date/time edited in Lightroom, it will have valid EXIF date/time fields.

I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo. It now shows in information, that the date is created and modified is different from the original digitized date. How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

Time Machine Data Transfer - From FireWire Drive to Time Capsule - HELP!

Time Machine Data Transfer - From FireWire Drive to Time Capsule - HELP!
I've been searching for weeks for a solution to my problem. Here's the story I've come across since I installed Leopard on Oct. 26, 2007.
I first installed Leopard on my Early 2006 MacBook and set up Time Machine with a 200GB external FireWire drive. Since then, things have been fine, until Time Machine started deleting the oldest backups. I'm a pack-rat and hated this feeling of losing data. So, I now have a few months worth of backups on my 200GB FireWire drive.
The Time Capsule is released, I finally talk myself into getting one and transferring my old data from the 200GB drive to my 1TB TC.
I did some researching through forums about how to move data from one Time Machine drive to another, so I took the concept and wanted to apply it to my Time Capsule. I made a DMG image of my 200GB drive, in order to move the data. I figured if I can make an image, copy it, and open it on the Time Capsule - all will go smoothly - just as some had mentioned they've done with external drives.
Now, I have a 164GB DMG image of my Time Machine, with no hope in sight of gaining it back. I've tried taking the image, using Disk Utility, and restoring my original 200GB external with the imaged Time Machine data, but whenever I do, I come across error messages.
In Disk Utility, I've done the following steps:
* Disk Image is found on Time Capsule
* I select the 200GB drive and select 'Restore'
* I drag and drop the Disk Image to the 'Image' field
* I drag and drop the 200GB drive into the the 'Restore' field
* Select 'Erase Destination'
* Select 'Restore'
* I get the warning message that I'll erase the drive - I proceed
* I enter my password
Error message pops up:
"Restore Failure: Could not find any scan information. The source image needs to be imagescanned/scanned for restore."
I select the image in Disk Utility, then proceed with the following steps:
* Click on "Image" then down to "Scan Image for Restore"
* I enter my password
After hours of waiting, I get another error message:
"Unable to scan. (Broken pipe)."
I'm going to see, after transferring the DMG to the Time Capsule, if I can drag-and-drop the files from the Time Capsule drive onto the 200GB hard drive.
IF anyone has any more suggestions, please let me know!

32 updates on this Mac since December 2007 - Hardware, software, OS...
They keep coming at about 6 or 7 a month. Some of them I don't care about, but several are essential. 10.5.3 has been seeded to the testers a couple of times and will probably show up in the next few weeks. Jaguar wasn't worth a d*mn until 10.2.6, Panther about 10.3.4, Tiger about 10.4.4 - I'd say we are ahead or on schedule Too bad I can't get Apple to fix Spaces. I wish they'd focus on what I want but I guess some take more time than others.
