Event times adding a date
I have a G5, a laptop and an iPhone being sync'd with MobileMe. The iPhone is new last week. I have been sync'ing the two computers via MobileMe for a few months.
Yesterday I noticed on the MacBook in iCal that all the event start and stop times had a date added after the normal date and time. Like this: "10/13/2009 0915 AM 10/13/20"
The "10/13/20" at the end is the new thing. It now shows in all the events for start and stop times.
Under iCal Preferences there is also a new date added after the "Day Starts/Stops At"
Like this: "6:00 AM 1/1/00" Not sure where the "1/1/00" comes from or what it indicates (the beginning of time?)
I can't remove these dates.
The G5 and the iPhone seemed to be fine for awhile until I got a message on the G5 that said that MobileMe wants to change 1200 events in the G5 iCal. I think the MobileMe Cloud now reflects the messed up MacBook and is trying to make the G5 read the same. I turned off all sync'ing of iCal via MobileMe.
I researched the support site to see if this problem has been reported in the past. Found a lot of stuff but nothing that is the same.
I do not see any other strange happenings in the MacBook iCal, just the extra dates. There may be some; but I haven't seen them yet.
Has anyone seen this? Has anyone have a fix or an idea of what to do to remove the extra dates?
Thanks for your help.
John
I would like to drag this question back into the light after a holiday weekend. I'm hoping someone out there can give me a new lead to follow. I have tried everything.
I restored all the data on my computer with a backup that was 4 months old. When I opened iCal the data all had the extra date info added to every event. It was the same.
Either the problem has been there for quite awhile (the laptop is not the principle computer for inputting events; the G5 is) or the problem is something in the MacBook OS that is adding the date info every time you insert a time (since it shows in each event and also in the preferences beside every start/stop time) or it is related only to the Intel MacBook and not to the Power PC G5.
I am out of ideas.
Any help? Thanks,
John

My laptop, iPad, and iPhone are being clogged by repeated iCal alerts. Every time an event is added, it seems another Calendar is also added. When I view the Calendar list in iCal, there are over 100...and the number is growing. They can not be deleted with a simple "Select all" or "Delete All" and, when deleted individually, the list quickly grows to huge numbers again rapidly. How do I keep this from happening and eliminate the excessive number of calendars?

Help adding current Date and Time stamp to file name

Create quick event fails to recognize date and time
When I use "Create Quick Event" and enter "June 29 9am debate", iCal creates an event today, now, named "June 29 9am debate". I have tried different variations like "29th of June at 9am" etc. but all failed - I always get an event today, now.
I am pretty sure Create Quick Event used to extract date and time from the box: it created an event named "Debate" on the date of June 29, starting at 9am, lasting one hour - what could be the reason it doesn't work any longer? And more importantly, how could I get back the old behavior?
Thanks!It is not prerly connected to the network

Upgrading to Photos When Event dates do not fall in the Event time period
I would like to upgrade my IPhoto library to Photos. My Library is organized by Events, and not all photos in a given event is for the same time frame. Example January 2015 Event may contain some pictures from the beginning of February if the event went over to the next month.
Do I have to make all my Events pictures have the same dates as the Event time period? (beach edit)
I noticed that Photos App puts everything in date sequence, so how do I maintain the pictures I want in a certain event?
I would like to organize my library first before upgrading to Photos
Thanks for your Help
MelMel, when you migrate your iPhoto Library to Photos, all your events will be mapped to albums. For each event you currently have, you will find an album in the folder "iPhoto Events" with all photos from that event.
Don't change the dates of your photos, that will just destroy information. Keep creating new albums for set of photos you would previously add to one event.
You may also want to add keywords to photos you want to group in one album. Then you can use smart albums based on keywords.
Photos does not yet support batch changing of titles or captions. Also, you cannot add places in photos.
Before you migrate your library, you may want o do all batch edits for titles and captions, and ensure, that all your photos have places assigned.

TableSorter errors when adding new data
so here is the deal:
I am using the TableSorter.java helper class with DefaultTableModel
from: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html
It works great when the data is static and I get it for the first time. however, occationally, when adding new data I get a NullPointerException error.
in use:
DefaultTableModel.addRow()
DefaultTableModel.removeRow() and
DefaultTableModel.insertRow() methods.

* TableSorter is a decorator for TableModels; adding sorting
* functionality to a supplied TableModel. TableSorter does
* not store or copy the data in its TableModel; instead it maintains
* a map from the row indexes of the view to the row indexes of the
* model. As requests are made of the sorter (like getValueAt(row, col))
* they are passed to the underlying model after the row numbers
* have been translated via the internal mapping array. This way,
* the TableSorter appears to hold another copy of the table
* with the rows in a different order.
* <p/>
* TableSorter registers itself as a listener to the underlying model,
* just as the JTable itself would. Events recieved from the model
* are examined, sometimes manipulated (typically widened), and then
* passed on to the TableSorter's listeners (typically the JTable).
* If a change to the model has invalidated the order of TableSorter's
* rows, a note of this is made and the sorter will resort the
* rows the next time a value is requested.
* <p/>
* When the tableHeader property is set, either by using the
* setTableHeader() method or the two argument constructor, the
* table header may be used as a complete UI for TableSorter.
* The default renderer of the tableHeader is decorated with a renderer
* that indicates the sorting status of each column. In addition,
* a mouse listener is installed with the following behavior:
* <ul>
* <li>
* Mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns
* and advances the sorting status of that column through three
* values: {NOT_SORTED, ASCENDING, DESCENDING} (then back to
* NOT_SORTED again).
* <li>
* SHIFT-mouse-click: Clears the sorting status of all other columns
* and cycles the sorting status of the column through the same
* three values, in the opposite order: {NOT_SORTED, DESCENDING, ASCENDING}.
* <li>
* CONTROL-mouse-click and CONTROL-SHIFT-mouse-click: as above except
* that the changes to the column do not cancel the statuses of columns
* that are already sorting - giving a way to initiate a compound
* sort.
* </ul>
* <p/>
* This is a long overdue rewrite of a class of the same name that
* first appeared in the swing table demos in 1997.

PeterThe code you posted doesn't help us at all. Its just a duplicate of the code from the tutorial. The custom code is what you have written. For example do you update the TableModel from the Event Thread? Do you update the SortModel or the DefaultTableModel? If you actually provide your test code and somebody has already downloaded the sort classes, then maybe they will test your code against the classes. But I doubt if people will download the sort classes and create a test program just to see if they can duplicate your results (at least I know I'm not about to).

Adding new date field to already loaded data target.
Hi,
we have a cube containing date feild such as 0CALMONTH. the data is being loaded to the cube. now they have added new date feild (0FISCYEAR). how to get data to this feild. there is no data coming from source system for this feild. please can any one tell me how to include this feild and load data into it.
with regards,
sreekanth.Sreekanth,
If Record creation date is the right field for deriving fiscal year, Why cant you derive the year from the date...by using automatioc time conversion...?? In update rules...??
For exising data, you can do loop back to populate the data. see the below doc, for more info:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f421c86c-0801-0010-e88c-a07ccdc69601
Hope it Helps

Adding new data to update multiple series in charts - in one action
I would like to know how to update a data series range in a chart all at once as can be achieved with Excel by
manually entering row numbers to expand the data series range or
by dragging a reference frame in a table to include additional data in the range.
At present, the only way that I have discovered I can update a series is to manually change the cell reference detail for each series individually. This is achieved by selecting a single line and clicking several times on the Data reference cell in the Inspector Chart option by highlighting the cell reference details and then manually changing the cell reference for each series separately. This is tedious, time consuming and more than a little clumsy! What used to take me a few minutes to update my charts in Excel is taking me tens of minutes in Numbers.theguardian wrote:

Unless I'm misreading this, similar techniques work in Numbers.
The original table contained only the sequential labels in column A and the data shown on the upper chart.
I made two changes, similar to those in your list (but in the opposite order, hence the reversal in my numbering):
2. Added data to cells B11:B15 (labeled J-N). (The data added is a copy of the first five data from the original series.) Selected the chart, then expanded the data series by dragging the control (small circle) down to include these cell (plus B16) in the charted range. The chart updated to include this data.
1. Selected B11:B15, then went Table > Add Rows Below (keyboard shortcut: option-down arrow). Numbers added five rows to the table, and updated the chart to include those rows, as shown in the lower version of the chart. Paste the data into these new rows to add it to the chart.
Although I had selected rows inside the charted range when adding new rows (to keep that "O" label on the x axis and show the 'space' before it), the five rows could as easily have been added to the end of the chart. Select B12:B16, press option-down arrow.

Help: event times not printing in month view
... and yes, I have checked "show time in month view" in preferences, and the event times display on the screen. But on the monthly printout, the times do not appear, only ellipses where the time should be. There should be plenty of space for the information to print, there is white space both at the end of the event line and in the day box. But no times show up at all.
System data: Mac Mini, OS X 10.4.2, iCal 2.0.3 (1055), Brother MFC 7820N printer.
This is really awful... I just switched my wife over to the Mac Mini, and calendaring is a big part of what she needs. And she uses month views a lot. If I can't fix this, she'll probably throw the Mac Mini back in my face and I'll be sleeping on the couch. Yes, she cares that much about times printing in month views.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.3)I don't know whether this a "solution" or a work-around, but I did find a way to resolve this problem. I recently started using iCal by transferring appointments from a BlackBerry using the BlackBerry PocketMac software. Although all of the appointment times appeared on the monthly calendar, most of the appointment times were replaced by ellipses when the monthly calendar was printed. It turns out that the times would print only after re-entering the appointment manually. This had to be done completely from scratch, i.e., not by editing the original appointment, or by cutting and pasting the appointment back into the calendar. This is a complete pain, but seems to work. I'd love to hear a better solution...

Change standard view: remove event time
In iCal, a lot of visual space is wasted listing the time of an event. Fortunately, the time is unlisted in some cases (e.g., a half hour event in 'week' view), but for 1 hour events or more, the view of the event description is occluded by the start time. This time listing is redundant and unnecessary, since it is also indicated and easily visible to the left of the day columns in 'week' view, for example. Is there a way to remove the time? Any suggested workarounds so that we can see more of our event descriptions at a quick glance?
thanks in advance.this is true, but i'm most interested in turning off times in 'week view', since times are already listed via the grid on which events lie. it sounds like a second radio button in Preferences>General should be added, called "Show/Hide event times in week view".
apple, are you listening? -
I just upgraded my MacBook to OSX Mountain Lion, but noticed an event "time" in iCal was wrong when synced with my iPhone 3gs. What's up??
Check Date and Time prefs on your laptop. Is the time correct, and are both devices using the same time zone?
-
Maybe this has been answered but I couldn't find anything on a search...
so my iCal on my computer and my iPhone iCal aren't syncing event times correctly. For instance I'll have an event on computer iCal at say, Friday 1pm but on iPhone iCal it says 6pm. All of the events have the wrong times on the iPhone.
I've reset my iSync history and that did not fix the problem. I've "Replaced information on this iPhone" and that didn't work either. Currently I sync my Entourage calendar to iCal and that works fine. But again when I then sync iCal to my iPhone it screws up all of the dates.
Any ideas why?figured it out. it was a time zone syncing problem.

How to set a default start and/or end date for New Events based on trigger date.
I'm using the CalendarActivityListener to get current row when clicking on an existing event. As per previous posts this listener gives you access to event detail including Start Date, End Date, etc.
However, what I want to do is to default the start (and end) dates for New Events based on the trigger date.
I've tried the CalendarListener and can grab the Trigger Date from it - however, I can't see a way to pass this directly to the popup/dialog I'm using to create the new event.
At present I'm putting the TriggerDate into the ADFContext session scope e.g. ADFContext.getCurrent().getSessionScope().put("TriggerDate",calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());
Then, I've tried multiple approaches to try and "get" the TriggerDate from session scope to drop it into my new Calendar Event basically, I'm trying to default the InputField(s) associated with the Start Date using the value from the session - I've tried
1. setting the default value for the InputField in the jspx using a binding expression i.e. value="#{sessionScope.TriggerDate}" - this actually sets the value appropriately when the jspx is rendered but, when I go to create I get a NPE and I can't debug. I assumed that it might be a Date type issue - it would appear that CalendarListener provides a date of type java.util.Date and that the StartDate attribute of my VO/EO/table is a DATE and therefore requires oracle.jbo.domain.Date so I tried casting it - to no effect
2. Using a Groovy expression *(StartDate==null?adf.context.sessionScope.TriggerDate:StartDate)* in my calendar's EventVO to default the Start Date to the same result
Any thoughts or ideas?John,
Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
*if ( bindingContext != null ) {*+
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+

How do I correct the Event time stamp in iPhoto?
When I updated my iMac to Lion, the Events in iPhoto are no longer sequenced by time correclty. The incorrectly sequenced Events have the wrong time / data stamp. How do I edit the Event time/date stamp to correct the problem?
Hi LarryHN,
The version of iPhoto is 8.1.2. I found your workaround on other strings, and tried it, to no avail. This issue has happened to three of my Event folders -- all from the same three-week trip. I had each day separated into different events and named consecutively. At some point, I uploaded all those photos to photobucket, and I believe the three troublesome Events perhaps were corrupted in some way after that upload? Regardless, I can't seem to fix it. All of the photos have the correct date (for example, in one Event, all photos are dated 12/25/11). However the date range on the Event is 12/31/09-1/7/12. So, those three Events keep getting sorted out of sequence.
I opened one of the Events, highlighted one photo and selected Create Event. That new photo became a new Event. I re-named it, and dragged all the photos from the old Event into the new Event. ...Unfortunately, the new Event still has the weird Date Range on it?
Any ideas? -
Error when converting time stamp in date time time zone CST in IC
Hi Experts,
We have recently upgraded from CRM 5.0 to CRM 2007. We are using IC WEB Employee interaction center.
so when agent create service ticket in interaction center and close the ticket on same day we are getting an error saying Error when converting time stamp in date time time zone CST.
we thought there may be problem while installing SAP CRM by basis team in time zone, but we did not find any problem.
So please advice how to resolve this issue.
Regards,
TejaHi Teja,
I saw a similar message, and it was resolved by adding a timezone to the user profile defaults tab in SU3. I believe the system has been configured to convert between users' timezone and the system timezone, therefore it needs to know each users' timezone.
Regards,
Simon.
