Event Creator/Date/Time

We are using iCal Server as our office calendar.
In Now-Up-to-Date we were able to see who created an event, and the date and time it was created. This was extremely helpful when a secretary scheduled an event for an attorney in the office - so the attorney would know who to go to with questions and/or which events were scheduled first (for prioritizing purposes if two events were scheduled at the same time).
Is there anyway to see this information in iCal and/or is iCal working to add this feature?

what exactly are you trying to achieve is my obvious question. A single forensic inquiry is different to a full listing of all events over years.
I assume you mean the created date shown in this view of the database.

The values stored there are javascript date time values.
If you enter the value into a javascript like
var d = new Date(1374129123000000);alert(d);
Where 1374129123000000 is your number not mine then the alert will be the datetime UTC
You can enter that javascript onto the error console and have it evaluate. Tools menu (Alt+T) > error console.

Is it possible to export all of the fields for calendar events ? Specifically we're after the event creation date time.

We need to find out when a calendar event was created.
I have been unable to find this information in Lightning or any exports.
From looking into the local.sqlite database file the cal_events table has a field called
time_created. Unfortunately when I try to export this, the format is unknown so it just
exports as a number.
Does anyone know of another way to export this information ?
Thanks in advance

Photos. They are on my macBook, backed up on time machine. Copied them (hours and hours) to external hard drive. They are now in alphabetical order (19,000 of them) NOT IN THEIR EVENTS or date order-and have been taken with different cameras- help!!!!!!

Photos.
They are on my macBook, backed up on time machine. There are 19,000+ of them, some rescued from a pc crash- which I used the nifty iPhoto to put back into date order.
I want to take them all off my laptop, now............as I need to use it for WORK!!
Copied them (hours and hours) to another external hard drive.
They are now in alphabetical order (all 19,000+ of them) NOT IN THEIR EVENTS or date order. (-They have also been taken with different cameras over the years and some of the generic camera numbering remains.)
I have tried to copy them (only a few as an experiment) one event at a time, but that again "opens up" the Event "folder" and tips them out as individuals and therefore just lists image letters and numbers alphabetically.
How can I copy
the whole library still in "Events" to an external hard drive?
the folders/albums I have already made on to this hard drive?
and how can I add to this back up monthly, again keeping events and folders separate and updated?
Mac is so user friendly - there must be a way.........
Thanks

UPDATE : I have re-installed from disk, various apps that were no longer functioning such as iLife, iWork etc. So, I now can access my photos again.
Also, I had to re-install all the software for my printer ( Stylus Pro 4880 ) and reset it so the printer is working again.
Photoshop CS4 won't open. I think I will have to get in touch with Adobe as basically, I guess they have a built-in "blocker" which prevents me from opening the app as the license is for only 1 user and having re-installed the OS, there are now, in effect, 2 users ( Me and Me 1, I think ).
So, having added on a new external HD, Time Machine has made a copy of most of the files, folders, apps etc onto the external HD. The internal HD is still nearly full ( 220 GBs out of 232 GBs ).
I am guessing the way to go now in order to free up space on the internal HD is to delete/trash older photos from my iPhoto library and hope that if needed, I will be able to access them on the external HD.
Am I correct ? Please advise before I do something I will regret.
Thanks, Sean.

How to return a specific date/time range and last event details, when checking the event log via command prompt

I am new to scripting (literally started reading/learning scripting a few hours ago), and I am stuck in trying to get my current script/command to filter a specific date range.
* Note: I am working with Server 2003 and 2008; because of the environment I am in, a lot of scripts (such as Powershell and VBScript) don't work; trying to stick with command line, as it appears to be the only thing that functions correctly in my environment
I am trying to search the System log in event viewer, for the most recent server reboot. Here is the command that I am currently running:
===========================================================
C:\Windows\System32\cscript C:\Windows\System32\eventquery.vbs /L System /FI "id eq 1074"
===========================================================
When run, the output looks like this:
===========================================================

What I would like it to do is only show events that have happened in the last seven days, as well as show the event details if it does find an event that matches the criteria.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Nick

I would prefer using Powershell , you can use below code
function Get-EventViewer
param(
[string[]]$ComputerName = $ENV:COMPUTERNAME,[string]$LogName,[int]$eventid
$Object =@()
foreach ($Computer in $ComputerName)
$ApplicationEvents = get-eventlog -logname $LogName -cn $computer -after (Get-Date).AddDays(-7) | ?{$_.eventid -eq "$eventid" }
foreach ($event in $ApplicationEvents) {
$Object += New-Object -Type PSObject -Property @{
ComputerName = $Computer.ToUpper();
TimeGenerated = $event.TimeGenerated;
EntryType = $event.EntryType;
Source = $event.Source;
Message = $event.Message;
$column1 = @{expression="ComputerName"; width=12; label="ComputerName"; alignment="left"}
$column2 = @{expression="TimeGenerated"; width=22; label="TimeGenerated"; alignment="left"}
$column3 = @{expression="EntryType"; width=10; label="EntryType"; alignment="left"}
$column4 = @{expression="Source"; width=15; label="Source"; alignment="left"}
$column5 = @{expression="Message"; width=100; label="Message"; alignment="left"}
$Object|format-table $column1, $column2, $column3 ,$column4 ,$column5
$Object.GetEnumerator() | Out-GridView -Title "Event Viewer"
You can do a function call like
Get-EventViewer -LogName system -ComputerName "computername" -eventid "2017"

Calendar no longer expands panel to edit event date/time

This issue just occurred out of the blue. When editing event details in the calendar, I click on the date/time panel to edit the date/time/repeat/etc. The expected action is for that panel to expand and be scrollable. What it is doing now is showing the prompts, but not expanding/giving a scroll and smushes everything together. Any ideas on what could be causing this and how to resolve? Screenshot of the issue:
I'm on Yosemite 10.10.1 and Calendar 8.0 (2026)

As always, I have no "Edit" button even one minute after posting, so I reply to my own post. I did also trash "com.apple.Calendar.plist", no change at all either in my chosen preferences or in the missing messages issue,

With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?

With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?
With Lion 10.7.1. you where able to drag events from "All Day Events" into the "Reminders" bar to create upcoming reminders.

Exactly the same question I was about to post!
Great being able to sync reminders (well overdue) however if I have to re-type a calener envent into reminders it's a waste of time!!
Come on Apple!!
Just need an option for the calender event to add to reminder or the old drag to add to reminder functionality back, Please???

Date/Time events help

I'm trying to make vpet like game on flash for class, but I need to work with time and dates for events like feeding, sleep, etc.
At least for now I need help figuring out how to make the game check like every 5 minutes to bring up an alarm about the pet needing food.
Sadly all i have is this:
stop();
const millisecondsPerMinute:int = 1000 * 60;
const millisecondsPerHour:int = 1000 * 60 * 60;
const millisecondsPerDay:int = 1000 * 60 * 60 * 24;
var date1:Date = new Date();
trace(date1);
I get the actual date, but don't know exactly what to do to make it check every 5 minuts or so. Don't know if it's with "if" or "do/while".

OK, so I looked shareobject. Once it starts to play, it checks for data and since there is none it creates one.Now where I am stuck is how to make it store data in it.
For example I found this online:
var so:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("test");
if (so.size == 0)
trace("created...");
so.data.now = new Date().time;
trace(so.data.now);
trace("SharedObject is " + so.size + " bytes");
so.flush();
The game starts, the pet hatches after some time. How do I use or modifiy this to make the shareobject go straight into the newborn instead of the egg? Do I have to do something with the "so.data.now"?

Creating iCal entries based on date/time appearing in text on any app

One thing I like about iCal's integration with Apple Mail is that the mail client is able to sense dates and times in email messages and then allow you to create iCal entries. But it seems that this date and time sensing is only limited to Apple Mail when technically users could potentially want to create iCal entries when a date and time appears on any app, such as on a web page in a web browser, in a PDF, or a word processing document. It seems logical then for iCal to be integrated with OS X's text services, so that at least if I highlighted a date and time, I could right click on it and bring up an option to create an iCal entry on based on that date and time.
Does anyone know if this feature is natively supported (for which I have yet to enable), or is there a third party app out there that will allow me to do this?

Just a quick update. I tried the first two -- text2cal and Calendar Creator -- and they don't seem to work on OS X 10.6.6.
However, on another note, I found some discussion regarding Snow Leopard's enhanced data detectors being natively able to do what I've been looking for. But I just can't seem to get it to work on my computer:
"Enhanced Data Detectors now link dates, times and other items found in text to actionable items in other applications, like iCal. For example, a drop-down menu that automatically appears when you select the time or date parts in a text enables you to create a new iCal event from a selected date or show the date in iCal."

Extraction and loading of Training and Event Management data (0HR_PE_1)

hello,
I've got the following doubt:
before BI 7.0 release, extractor 0HR_PE_1 extracts event data (eventid, attendee id, calday,...) but if you load straight to cube 0PE_C01, as Calendar year/month needs a reference date (for example, event start date), you'll get total duration of event in hours or days refered to event star date.
So in a query filtered by month, you get total duration of an event that starts in the filtered month but it couldn`t end until few months later o year later, so you don´t get appropiate information.
Example:
Event calday Hours
10004377 20081120 500 but from event_attr event end date is 20090410.
In a query filtered by 200811 you get total duration time (500 hours when in 200811 event hours have been 20) or if you filter by any month of 2009 you don´t get information of duration of that event.
I had to create a copy of standar cube (without calday, only Calendar year/month, Calendar year in time dimension) and disaggrate data creating as many entries for an event as months lasts and adjust calculation of ratios duration of event (duration of event in each month/ total duration of event).
The question is: Is there any improvement or change on business content in BI 7.0 to treat Training and Event Management data? Has anybody had to deal with that?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
TEM data is stored in HRP tables.
You can load the catalog by creating LSMWs for objects Business event group (L), Business event types (D), Locations (F), Organizers (U) as per requirement.
LSMW for tcode PP01 can be used to create these objects.
To create Business Events (E) you can create LSMW for PV10/PV11.
To book attendee create LSMW for tcode PV08 as here you can specify the actual business event ID which reduces ambiguity.
tcode PV12 to firmly book events
tcode PV15 to follow up
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Shreyasi.

DID YOU KNOW?? - ABOUT DATE TIME CONVERTERS??

Hi All,
DID YOU KNOW??
That the Creator IDE provides a set of converters that you can use to convert component data. If your input field is for numbers, then you most likely need a converter. Converters are also good for formatting dates, times, and currency values. The standard converters, which you can use are located in the Converters section of the Components Palette.
The Date Time Converter
A Date Time Converter Converts between java.lang.String values in your component properties and data types of java.util.Date. The conversion usually applies to the property of a component used to display values and to pick up values entered by users, such as the text property of a Text Field component.
An example is binding a JavaServer Faces component to to a database column of type DATE. When you bind a component, the IDE normally identifies the data type for you and sets the appropriate converter when you establish a binding to the value property. However, you can also add this converter manually by setting the component's converter property.
* Note: If you are using an Oracle database, use the SQL Timestamp converter instead.

Using Converters

We would like to know the following from you :-
1) Why and How are you using Converters in applications you are building?
2) Did you face any challenges while using them?
3) Did you find any cool ways of using these or build any cool custom converters?
4) Any feedback you might want to share about converters to make it easier in using them.
Thanks for all your inputs and for joining in the discussion.

did you know that sqlTimestamp converter returns value of java.sql.Date type if you are using sun's oracle jdbc driver. It will return the correct type if you use oracle's jdbc driver. Not sure why this happen, though. Bug?

How do I stop iCal from changing my gCal events to UTC time zone when entering new events?

Within the last week, iCal has begun automatically changing the time zone of new events I enter via Calendar on my Google calendar to UTC. It does not do this for items entered on my iCal calendar.
I enter the date and time (Pacific Time) and as soon as I add an invittee or click "Done" it changes the time zone to UTC.
Prefs:
iCal time zone support is on
Mac time zone is set automatically (and its correctly finding PDT)
gCal time zone is also set for Pacific
Calendar reads 11-1 pm...
Yes, one solution would be to not use Calendar. Barring that, what do you suggest?

I was having the same problem and spent some time on the phone with apple today.(new computer is under apple care). Tried a ton of stuff with different folks and ultimately I (well, me and 3 apple specialists) was able to solve this issue.
Here's the break down:
1. Quit Mail, Calendar and Messages.
2. Open: System Preference -> Mail, Contacts & Calendars
3. Delete all your google accounts (using the little minus button below your account list)
4. Restart your computer.
5. Re-add your google accounts. (Obviously, keep the calendar box checked).
6. Open calendar and wait for your google info to populate.
7. Attempt to add an event with correct time zone.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Events I created while I was having the problem still had the problem.
I simply deleted those broken events and recreated them with refreshed settings.
I've only had this working for a few hours so I'm not certain it will stay working forever.
But for now it is a relief.
I realize deleting and re-adding the accounts is annoying but it's a lot less frustrating than seeing UTC every time you add an event.
Hope that helps everyone else having this problem.

Calendar: Why not allow freedom to set alerts on any date/time?

Hypothetically speaking...
A man's wedding anniversary is every July 29th, however his memory has failed to prepare himself for the date appropriately for the last few years.
He recently added this date to his Iphone Calendar app, however it only allows him to alert the event the maximum of 2 days before. Why not allow the freedom to set alerts weeks in advance? Or perhaps allow alerts to be provided at any date/time you feel necessary?
I feel this scenario, and many varieties of others would benefit to the availability of this feature within the Calendar app.
I also have one additional recommendation for the app. If an event is considered an ALL DAY event and an alert is set as a reminder, this alert will go off at midnight since it 'technically' is the beginning of the day. Quite annoying in my opinion. Lets also have the availability to set the alert notification time for ALL DAY events.
I look forward to Apple recognizing these innovative ideas and providing these additions to their next upgrade! THANKS!

I agree completely that this sort of freedom is needed.

IPhoto, sort by date is not a true date/time sort

In iPhoto, sort by date is not a true date/time sort. If you have two cameras with there own naming convention iPhoto sorts filename by date separating the two cameras in the view. Is there a way to sort by DATE&TIME ONLY?

Using two cameras using iPhoto to upload pictures.
Both cameras are set to the correct time and date.
Connect camera ONE filenames IMGP0101
By default:
No event name
Split events checked
Select import 12 photos
Creates events:
Untitled event December 27, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 28, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 29, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 30, 2013
Connect camera TWO filenames IMG_1101
By default:
No event name
Split events checked
Select import 12 photos
Creates events:
Untitled event December 28, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 29, 2013
In order by time
Untitled event December 30, 2013
Now I have 2 events for each of December 28, 29 and 30 they are not all under the same event name. My only option is to click and drag the pictures from the second set of events to the first set of events then they are in order. This is a real pain to do. There needs to be a way to reset the event dates so all pictures from both cameras end up in the right event date.

Found iCal events in Time Machine. Now Lion only allowing me to import one event at a time.

Upgrade my macbook pro over the weekend to Snow Leopard and then Lion.   I lost all my the majority of my iCal events.   Went to Apple store and they said that was rare and not sure how to restore my last back up from Time Machine on an external drive.   I've been spending hours trying to go through a bunch of threads on different MAC formums.
So I finally found my iCal events in Time Machine.   When I try to import these events, I am only allowed to highlight/import one event at a time.   This will take me forever to import years of missing data.   I basically have been using my iCal to journal for my 3 small daughters - first tooth, hair cut, etc.   So I am desperate to get these events back so I can get them printed and SAFE.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to import my ics files?   The Apple Store Genius had me tryng to import the corestorage.ics files.   2 or 3 of those files showed they were trying to be imported for over 4 hours.   I finally Forced Quit iCal.   I've tried this several times and same result.
The corestorage files were under user/library/application support/ical/sources
I now located the calendar events user/library/calendars/ then a bunch of coded files leading to the events. These events appear to be the ones I am looking for as I can read some of the files.   I have several years I want to import back into my working iCal.
Please help if you know how!!!
Thank you,
Very Upset Mama of 3 little girls

Thomas - You are awesome - THANK YOU!
I did exactly what you said (CAN"T believe an Apple Genius did not know this) and I think all of my events got restored.
However, it duplicated all of the calendars - I have 6 (one for each family member plus an extra called home that we all have to do).   Not sure if I did something wrong, but do you have any ideas?
Also, the time setting must be wrong b/c I have events from 2008 showing up in 2012 - same day and time as the old sessoin - just out dated.    Do I need to manually change all of this?   Should I delete the Calendars folder again and try again?
Also, I read some where about deleting a iCal cache file.   Do I need to do this?
I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to help people in this forum.   I have spent hours the past two days trying to figure this out.   Plus, now I need to figure out about upgrading my Office for Mac b/c I didn't realize I lost Office 2004 when upgrading to Lion.
Thank you for your time and support!

Events - Incorrect Dates after split

Hi All
Wondering if you are having the same issues as I am, or can help....
I have a coupe of cases where I have split an event which took place over a couple of days (I imported the pictures on a specific day, but iPhoto did not create separate events for each days shooting).
Now that I have separate events, with photos spanning one day in each event, the displayed date as seen in the Events screen when you skim, is incorrect.
The displayed date will show something like 24 Dec 2006 - 12 March 2007, but the pictures in the event were only taken on the 24th December... Hope the above makes sense?
Does anyone know how to correct this? Selecting the 'change date & time' option (with events selected) only changes the date/time of all the pictures within the event but not the date of the event itself.
Thanks and Regards
Scott

Step one is to correct the date on the Photos as you did (You could have used the adjust date & time eature too)
Then open the event an dselect one photo and create a new event. This new event will have the correct date. Then drag the remaining photos (with correct dates) to the new event and you will ahve an event with the correct dates
I'm hoping that APple addresses this in the future but for now this seems to be the only way to get the event's attention to update the date range
