Dates of file creation and other activities

I purchased my computer in early February of 2006 with system 10.4 installed. I set the date and time using preferences. Since that time all my file creation dates seen in Finder window "Preview" are given as 2006/01/05 (international standard format). However if I hit the "More info" button the correct dates are given on the detail panel and also the correct times of the occurrences.
ITunes shows the dates of last playing in the incorrect way also on its index page.
Where does the incorrect date originate and how can I get it to agree with the date set on the computer?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

If you're using some flavor of Windows, then the attached VI can grab the file creation date, along with some other usful file info. All the info is returned as strings so it's easy to use as you need.
This is saved in ver 6.0.2, but it upgrades OK.

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

Troublie with File Sharing and Other Activities between two Macs

Here's my situation. I have two Macs... a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro, both running OS X 10.5.7. They connect to the Internet wirelessly through an Apple Airport Extreme (N) Base Station. But I also have them connected to each other via Ethernet. AppleTalk is turned on, only on the Ethernet connection.
My problem is that I want to curtail all computer-to-computer communications (file sharing, Airfoil speaker connections for playing iTunes, Chronosync file synchronization, etc.) so that they ONLY occur over the Ethernet connection.
I have both computers setup so that "Ethernet" is first in the sort order for network connections. File Sharing is turned on on both computers.
But... I can tell that, sometimes, the connection between the two computers is occurring over the WiFi instead of through the Ethernet (for instance, I disconnect from the WiFi on the Mac Pro and the music playing through AirFoil stops... or Chronosync can't connect to the laptop to perform a sync).
Am I just up a creek? Or is there some way to ensure that the two computers only "see" each other over the Ethernet connection and not over the shared WiFi? I know that, with "N" speeds on the Airport Extreme (and with N-capable cards in both computers), the "speed" thing isn't that big of a deal. But when running a Chronosync synchronization where several GBs of shared files are being synched, it still puts a crimp in Internet browsing speeds, etc., if that data is going over the WiFi instead of the Ethernet.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm not certain of this but whilst you're waiting for a more informed response here goes. OSX uses something called the "default route" which prefers the one with internet access over the order of networks you set in preferences, therefore, the default route isn't necessarily the fastest route. Without editing configuration files or using hardware or software to hard code routing routines, you'll need to switch off Airport and hence the default route will become the network created automatically by your ethernet connected Macs. Apple Talk isn't necessary.

i just recently upgraded my itouch from 4.1 to ios 5, and updated to itunes 10.5. but when i synced my music files,ebooks and other apps, all is working except when im trying to sync my video files. it says, canot be synced as cannot be played on this ipod. but those are the same files that i have when i was using the old 4.1 version and its syncing just fine.. the itunes advanced tab "create iphone or ipod version" is not working either so i cant convert it to be xferred and synced. what can i do to have my video files synced?

i had the same problem but i just got a new video converter and made it convert videos to ipod/iphone format and then put them into itunes. i would suggest GOM encoder as the encoder can convert them and then once they're finished converting, put them automatically into your itunes for you. from there you can just sync them to your ipod.

Dates for Interaction records and other Business Activities in IC (CRM2007)

Hello,
I noticed that for interaction records or follow up business activities the dates are not displayed at all in the IC. Is there a way make the configured dates (in date profile) visible in the IC?
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi Raghavendran,
I am facing the same problem. Other than Appointments,Tasks,Email and Interaction record I cannot create any other Activities.
I defined a new Transaction type assigned the category Misc but cannot create the Activity on WEBUI. As Raja suggested I have also assigned the Channel as WEBUI and ICWEBCLIENT but still does not work. Is there any Role specific customization that needs to be performed?
Please let me know if your issue is resolved and how you resolved it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Problem with Date - Text File Source and Oracle Target

Hi All,
I have a source data (text file) with date column in the format of 'MM/DD/YYYY'. My target is oracle. I am using the LKM FILE TO SQL and IKM SQL Control Append. When i execute this interface, i am getting an error as
7000 : null : com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.file.b.i
com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.file.b.i
at com.sunopsis.jdbc.driver.file.b.f.getColumnClassName(f.java)
at the Load Data step.
How to load date columns from text file to oracle tables? Please help me in resolving this...
Thanks in Advance,
Ram Mohan T

The worst solution is to define for your text file the date as a string and then to rebuild your date type in Oracle.
something like
convert(Substr(myfield,4,2)||Substr(myfield,1,2)||Substr(myfield,7,4) ,'MMDDYYYY')
this is maybe the worst solution but it should work.

Brice

Tags, no longer displaying file names and other issues

I upgraded to Mavericks, MacBook Air.
I need help sorting out what is going on with Tags.
I have a screen shot, but uploading it to this post is another problem I have run into with Mavericks. I click on the camera icon, click on upload file, and then I get a list of greyed out files, and am unable to select any of them. Very unmac like.
Back to the tag issue. The tags are listed in the open finder window. Most of the tags I have created, when selected, will display all the files with that tag, and show the file name or icon.
BUT, one of my tags, which has over a thousand files, will not display the file names. What is shown are a list of blank icons, and no file names. The preview for each file still shows as it should when a file is selected, and the file name is listed in the preview.
A picture is worth a thousand words, so I really wish I could have uploaded the screen shot!
In addition, some of the files, e.g. a .pdf file, will show no icon, no file name, no file size, but will open when double clicked and dispaly the file name and a greyed out addition to the file name "-Locked". Much weirdness.
Tags have not been working well for me. I have used colours extensively in the past for organization and now it seems to be a huge problem converting to tags. What a painful transition from Mountain Lion!

With the backup completed, I followed your suggestion:
"Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again."
The smart folders disappeared. The original Tags named by colour are back on the list of Tags, and the problems remain unchanged.
In the Tags I created for my file collection, call it the LotsOfFiles folder, there are no file names listed, none.
However, when I changed the permissions on every file in the LotsOfFiles folder to Staff-Read & Write, then I was able to change, add, and delete Tags from the files. Also, once the permissions were changed the file names appeared, after five minutes... so I edited this entry when I discovered the change.
The files in LotsOfFiles have been collected since 1995, and have been saved to many computers and many backup systems. They also have been used, saved, changed etc. in operating systems dating back to OS7, and almost every operating system up to 10.9. They also are being used on different computers right now, one running OS 10.3.9. one running 10.7, and one running 10.9. The computers all have different admin logins and info.
But I still can't upload files to this forum!

Seamless data migration between forms and other adobe products

How can I migrate data from a form to complete a pdf fillable form (such as a contract) and then send to echosign in an automated process?

Hi;
If this question is related to PDF forms created in Acrobat, and not related to FormsCentral you should post (or I can move to) the Acrobat Forms Forums: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms
If it is about FormsCentral, there is nothing in FormsCentral that supports automated data migration.

Standard XML schema for Vendor data exchange between SAP and other system

Is there a SAP standard way of XML schema that we exchange between SAP and other system? Please let me know.
Thanks.

See SAP Interface Repository (http://ifr.sap.com).
My proposal is to leave old SAP connectors staff and use SAP Exchange Infrastructure. There is a support of industry XML standards in XI 3.0 like xCBL.

Get original file creation and modified date during upload - ONLY in explorerview ??

Hi,
SharePoint and me are having a difficult time again ;-)
I have the customer requirement to retain the original file's creation date and modified date.
Please do not start replying by just pasting links that you might find while searching for the keywords "retain creation date".
In a nutshell I found out that the original dates are only available in SharePoint if the
explorerview has been used. I always thought that the explorerview is a bad thing, but only here - the original creation date is stored in a property called "vti_ct". In the itemupdated eventreceiver you can get the
value and work with it.
Complete list of available properties
http://sbrickey.com/Tech/Blog/Post/Secrets_Revealed_SP_Event_Receivers_firing_multiple_times
Here I found the hint with the explorerview
http://answers.flyppdevportal.com/categories/sharepoint2010/sharepoint2010programming.aspx?ID=57bfd5f5-941f-4a89-919d-cdf7b0b801be
It is only available in the 2nd loop of the itemupdated event.
How the f*** can this happen??? The 2nd post states that when using the explorerview the file is being copied, while it is being re-created by using the SharePoint UI.
Has anyone a different approach for using the SharePoint UI?
I thought about different approaches for this issue. From my perspective it seems to be not solvable from the server-side. It seems only to be able to be set using a client application.
Example 1: spbulkdocumentimport
http://spbulkdocumentimport.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Features&referringTitle=Documentation
Example 2: implement a custom webservice
http://blog.orbitone.com/post/Preserve-created-and-modified-information-when-importing-a-document-in-SharePoint
How do you deal with this customer requirement?
Open for discussions
Sven

Hi,
Newbie to SharePoint, learn quite a lot from the links you provided.
“I found out that the original dates are only available in SharePoint if the explorerview has been used”, this would make sense because the original creation time is generated
by the file system in the local machine.
However, when a file is uploaded to SharePoint library, it will be stored as binary data in the database, as well as the newly created time. It means that it will be a “new” file
in the SharePoint site regardless of where it comes from.
Per my knowledge, the only way I can suggest is that you will need to create a client desktop application for the file uploading, which will be a more general way not only for
uploading a file, but also when we need to migrate files between different systems.
Thanks

"Searching for movie data in file [filename]" and iDVD hangs.

I have a project I saved and I want to open and make a change to. iDVD loads the project and displays the title. When I click to edit one of the scene selection menus, it goes off "searching for movie data" and hangs until I kill it.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this? I really don't want to have to re-do my project.
Thanks!
Scott

This frequently helps solve some problems. Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.
You'll need to reset some Preferences.

Offline Files (Background) Sync makes File Explorer and other programs responding slow

Hi TechNet,
I have a problem with Offline Files and
especially with VPN users.
For VPN users, the slow-link
policy is activated with a background
sync interval of one hour. But, when Offline Files is syncing, their File Explorer is hanging (not responding) by creating new files/folders, deleting files/folder, or rename files/folders. This happens only in their (redirected)UserData
folder or with other DFS shares which are cached locally. In other programs (Outlook or Office 2010) when they save data in the UserData folder exactly the same things happens (not responding).
This problem occurs in both the
internal network and via VPN, so bandwidth is
not the problem. When the sync is finished, everything is working fine again.
I've tested:
- Offline mode with scheduled background sync: problem occurs
- Online mode with manual sync: problem occurs
- Rebuild offline cache database: no effect
- Tested with fresh Windows 8(.1) installations and user profiles: problem occurs
- Monitoring SMB traffic with WireShark: no result
- Montoring Windows 8(.1) clients with procmon: no result
- Tested with full DFS paths: problem occurs
- Disable IPv6: problem occurs
- Disable Windows Search: problem occurs
- Browsing in the Offline Files folder (Sync Center -> Manage Offline Files -> View Offline Files) is very slow (with +- 200 files). This occurs also when Offline Files is not syncing.
Does anyone have an idea how I can solve this problem?
Thanks,
Bas

Hello Steven,
First, sorry for the late response, I have tested a few things for you:
Offline mode with background sync over a VPN connection: During scheduled sync File Explorer hangs. When bypass the cache by using a UNC path (State: Online) there is also a delay, but this is caused by bandwidth.
Online Mode with Manual Sync over a LAN connection: During sync File Explorer hangs in (redirected)UserData Folders (They are always available offline, maybe this is a problem?). With UNC paths, there is no delay…
The first folder/file is created slowly, but the second is fast.
It's like csc
still
must initialize
the cache…or something…
I m I made some
print screens, but I can not upload them because my account is not verified.......

"Insufficient Data" or "File damaged and could not be repaired"

I have two clients who send PDFs on a regular basis. Every time, I get one of two error messages:
"Insufficient data for an image" or "There was an error opening the document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."
Several other people in the office also running Windows XP can open the PDFs from these two clients. I have followed all the trouble suggested by Adobe, and still have the same issue on my computer. I have uninstalled Reader 9 and tried installing Reader 8 and Reader 7, and Adobe Acrobat 7.0 - all have the same issue from these two clients on my computer. Everything else opens fine from other clients.
** Help with any Suggestions to fix this!
