Extended Meta data date / time shift

Up to know it seems that Lightroom 3 can only enter a new date / time for the Meta data creation / change / modify values. Or it can shift the time in 1 hours steps to correct time zone problems whitin a define +/- range.
Now imagine about that I have image files from different cameras about the same event and the internal camera time is not the same at all camera, means, than e.g. one camera time is 20 minutes late (-20 min) compared to another camera. Of course, then I could enter a corrected time for the creation time in lightroom directly. But should I do that for 300 images???
I need an extended function of the date / time modification:
It should be possible to make a batch modification of all selected photos of +/- hh:mm:ss to adapt the images of one camera (which had a wrong interal time setting) to the real time or at least to a time of another camera (of course you have to know the exact time difference between the camera times).
Such a function is currectly provided by the little software EXIFTool - but it's not nice to handle the image files outside of Lightroom just to modify the time. And Lightroom already has a function for this - but it's possibilities are not good enough.
Please implement this as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Jochen

Hi robtes,
thank you very much for the hint! I always thought that all selected images would be set to the same time if I use this function.
I guess then this is just a GUI problem. It should be somehow visible that in the grid view all selected images are shifted with the same amount of time. Additionally it would be an advantage to see how much time (+/-) it is shifted.
Nevertheless, it could have saved allot of my time if I knew that before. I tried to find something in the German help - but I didn't find the information you gave to me.
Finally this is a point which can still be improved.
Thanks again,
Jogi73

Data Synchronizer GroupWise connector time shift problem

I have recently installed the latest 1.2.2 Data Synchronizer Mobility with GroupWise connector, one bug I have found when looking at time stamps of emails sent and received from the connector perspective I am seeing a 20 hrs time shift i.e. from my Android device I send an email to myself at 06:00 May 6 local the time it will show received at 10:00 May 5 also looking at sent time on the device it will say sent at 10:00 May 5. When I look at the GroupWise client or WebAccess sent and received time and date are correct. Conclusion it's only the Data Synchronizer showing time date incorrectly. Any thoughts welcome.

Update - This problem appears to be phone specific it is a Motorola MB525 with Android 2.2.2 we have some HTCs which do NOT have a problem with time zone. Another minor problem is items deleted on the device do not sync up to GroupWise

How do I set all photos in a project to the same date (rather than simply time-shifting)?

I have a bunch of old scanned photos in Aperture (current version - 3.5.1), and am trying to tidy up the metadata, especially the dates.
This is turning out to be quite a task, as the date gaps between scans are all over the place. For example, in one project I might have photos scanned between 2004 and 2007 that all took place on one day in 1999.
This means the native "adjust date and time" function in the metadata menu doesn't work, as it is a little too clever in its timeshifting. If I highliht the whole project and change it all to 1 June 1999, the 2004 shots get changed to that date but the 2007 scans are dated 2002, with Aperture "cleverly" preserving the inaccurate three year gap in the original scans' metadata.
This is making the process of fixing my data far more arduous than it needs to be.
I feel like my situation can't be that unusual, and their must be a way to override this behaviour. I'm not fussy about preserving logical time gaps between shots but I'd like them to have the right year and month (so a "dumb" solution that gave them all idntical date and times would be fine).
Can anayone help? Thanks in advance!

What is your Aperture version?
If it is compatible with iPhoto, open the Aperture library in iPhoto and use iPhoto's Batch Change to adjust the date of your scans: (File > Open Library in iPhoto)
In iPhoto select the photos in the event and go to the main menu bar:
Photos > Batch Change > Set Date:
Select the initial date and time of your photos and a very small gap, e.g. 1 second. All photos will set to the same date, stepped by one second to preserve their time order.
Afterwards switch back to Aperture using "File > Open Library in Aperture).
this works very well with Aperture 3.5.1 and iPhoto 9.5.1.

Bizarre date and time hang.. Hardware or software?

Hi all, i have this totally bizarre problem that i have never seen in my 25 years of using mac's..
Since yesterday my date and time seems to hang; it doesn't really update anymore and when i hover my mouse over i get the beach ball. Also this seems to effect the system prefs, if i start that up it sometimes hangs too.. which then effects and hangs the finder.
Last night i deleted the associated plist and cages things, zapped the pram etc, no luck with this. Also disk utility showed no problems with my drive.
So today i installed a fresh new 10.6 system which did install, but the first 2 attempts getting across the welcome&register screens gave me beachballs and complete unresponsiveness too. So now after some hard restarts i'm puzzled.. Also startup and shutdown seems slow.
As far as i can tell there is no special clock battery in these things that could cause this? So anyone any ideas? Every idea is much appreciated!
Thanks, Gerben

Welcome to Apple Discussions Gerben.
Your computer is apparently early 2008. Do you have the extended Applecare warranty? If you do you could take it to the nearest Apple-authorised service centre & get it checked out.
If not, try starting in safe mode by holding the shift key until the Apple logo appears. See whether the problem is still there. If not, it's a software problem almost certainly.
However you should also disconnect all peripherals and see whether there is still a problem. If not, then it is likely one of the peripherals is the source of the problem.
Failing this insert your original installation dvd, disconnect all peripherals and restart holding the D key. This will check hardware. If any errors are reported you might need to approach service.

Best practice on extending the SIEBEL data model

Can anyone point me to a reference document or provide from their experience a simple best practice on extending the SIEBEL data model for business unique data? Basically I am looking for some simple rules - based on either use case characteristics (need to sort and filter by, need to update frequently, ...) or data characteristics (transient, changes frequently, ...) to tell me if I should extend the tables, leverage the 'x' tables, or do something else.
Preferably they would be prescriptive and tell me the limits of the different options from a use perspective.
Thanks

Accepting the given that Siebel's vanilla data model will always work best, here are some things to keep in mind if you need to add something to meet a process that the business is unwilling to adapt:
1) Avoid re-using existing business component fields and table columns that you don't need for their original purpose. This is a dangerous practice that is likely to haunt you at upgrade time, or (worse yet) might be linked to some mysterious out-of-the-box automation that you don't know about because it is hidden in class-specific user properties.
2) Be aware that X tables add a join to your queries, so if you are mapping one business component field to ATTRIB_01 and adding it to your list applets, you are potentially putting an unnecessary load on your database. X tables are best used for fields that are going to be displayed in only one or two places, so the join would not normally be included in your queries.
3) Always use a prefix (usually X_ ) to denote extension columns when you do create them.
4) Don't forget to map EIM extensions to the extension columns you create. You do not want to have to go through a schema change and release cycle just because the business wants you to import some data to your extension column.
5) Consider whether you need a conversion to populate the new column in existing database records, especially if you are configuring a default value in your extension column.
6) During upgrades, take the time to re-evalute your need for the extension column, taking into account the inevitable enhancements to the vanilla data model. For example, you may find, as we did, that the new version of the S_ADDR_ORG table had an ADDR_LINE_3 column, and our X_ADDR_ADDR3 column was no longer necessary. (Of course, re-configuring all your business components to use the new vanilla column can also be quite an ordeal.)
Good luck!

Date (date and time) with MySQL, register here!

Hi,
Summary:
I have a page (form) to capture attendance. It works, it allows user to enter their attendance details. On click, it writes to the database - table. The date is not captured on the form.

There are several ways. One is to get the date from the php time() function and use that in your insert statement. Another is to use MySQL CURDATE() function. But probably the easiest and best is to simply define the default value for the date/time column as the current date/time and exclude it from the insert statement. No code changes necessary.

Changed date and time and lost reference to proxy files

I had a batch of transcoded proxy files (from a Canon 550d) that had the wrong time on them. I used "Modify > Adjust content created date and time" to shift them by an hour. FCP now reports "Missing Proxy" for all of them. I've checked in the events folder and all the proxy files are still there, it just seems FCP has lost its reference to them.
I can re-transcode them but of course that takes a long time. Two questions: anyone any idea why this happened and is there a way to re-link FCP with the existing files?
Curiously I adjusted the time on some files that had been transcoded from a AVCHD source and these are still OK!
(Using V 10.0.5 on a 2011 MBA with LaCie Thunderbolt disc)

In the end I re-transcoded the files but I think this article may have been the answer:

Or something .Itune store sighn in works well in my pc ,ipad and other devices no problem.
And i tried putting off all firewalls in router but no luck.
Its connected wirelessly to the same router which normally works
Any idea guys

HI
I have tried everything possible such as router firewall settings changing DNS servers using WIFI and ETHERNET nothing works.Waited for more updates nothing so far.The only solution is to down grade the firmware through itunes .Using now 5.0.2 works like a charm .Don't wait any longer just search apple forum for procedure and follow.Use a mac better.It takes only 5 minutes for the process.All you need is a mac or windows pc,usb cable,the type that goes behind the apple tv,(I used a blackberry bold 9900 original cable),software known as ipsw.YOU DONT NEED TO POWER THE APPLE TV WHILE DOING THIS.IT WILL LIGHT THE LED FROM PC POWER.GO TO https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4419016?start=0&tstart=0 Read procedure written by cwlown .JUST MAKE SURE FOR MAC HOLD OPTION KEY DOWN THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO THE DOWNLODED ipsw AND RUN.FOR WINDOWS HOLD SHIFT THEN CLICK RESTORE .POINT TO Ipsw download and run.There is no neen to unzip or extract ipsw.I had a problem when using windows xp ipsw did not show up as an upgradeable firmware therefore could not run it.I did not want to waste time and used the mac instead.I think renaming the ipsw in windows could have cleared the problem.Another thing is after the downgrade itunes will say that your APPLE TV is restored to its factory defaults don't worry the job is done ,check your software on the APPLE TV THROUGH your tv LOCATED at general then about.SETTING up the ATV first connect the wifi or lan cable select location first THEN sign in.

HT2473 How can I get the date and time back on the menu bar?

Several items disappeared from my menu bar for no reason known to me. I miss the date and time and want it back. Please . I have gone to System Preferences and clicked "date and Time" but it will not allow me to check anything on the page even though there is a box "Show date and time in Menu bar".
What should be my next move?

One more thing might help us
In the Finder > Date & Time Preferences > Take a Full ScreenShot of the entire display showing the "absence" of the check box (or whatever) to Show in Menu Bar
⌘ Command + ⇧ Shift > Press ' 3 ' > release all three
Use the camera tool > locate the screenshot in the Desktop (not sure whether it will say "Picture 1.png" or have a TimeDateStamp as a title.

Date and time formatting not responding

I'm trying to total a column based on a date or date window. My formula looks like this.
SUMIF(Date,B1,'$')
I have 2 tables. The table with the formula references the other table, and compares Date in table 1 to B1 in table 2. B1 is a date I enter to see a specific total for that day only. It only works if all the times of the date window are 12:00:00 AM. , and the B1 times are the same ..... Even though times are unimportant to the totals I need, and both are formatted to "none" and do. It show.
So, how do I total a specific date with various times, but all the same date? I have a sample file if it will make more sense to see it.
Not that it matters, but I am doing this on an iPad, but the formula still did not respond correctly on Mavericks either. Unless I set all times equal to B1.
Sorry if I didn't explain very well. I'm new at this formula thing.
Thanks
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
The entered date in B1 will have it's time part set to 00:00:00 (midnight, at the beginning of that date). To use SUMIF to filter the date and time values in Table 1, you would need to write a single condition that would accept all date and time values falling on the date in BI, and reject all date and time values falling on days before or after that date.
SUMIFS allows you to specify multiple conditions, all of which must be met to acept a test value and add its associated sum value to the total. Here's an example:
The formula in B1 of Table 2 is shown below:
B2: =SUMIFS(Table 1 :: B,Table 1 :: $A,">="&B1,Table 1 :: $A,"<"&(B1+1))
Syntax: =SUMIFS(sum-values,test-values,condition,test-values,ˆcondition)

Date and Time wrong after battery went flat, messing up whole system

Hi all.
I had my iBook running free, no ac adapter connected.
This normally isn't a problem at all, if my iBook runs out of juice, it'll happilly sleep for hours. So I came back to use it again after an hour or so, expecting it to be asleep to find that it had totally powere down. The battery was out. I connected the ac adapter and booted.
Once OSX loaded, it told me the date was set to before march 2001, and would cause problems. Whaich was very accurate, I got BIG problems. The date has set to 1970, which would indicate the PMU was wiped/reset.
Normally I'd open system prefs and fix the date and time, but it won't load. OSX is running VERY slowly. Nothing works. No dock, finder is totally unresponsive, everything takes an age to load (if it even loads). I tried changing the date and time from terminal, but it wouldn't allow me, even though I'm logged in as the admin. Something odd I noticed in terminal was that the computer name seems to have changed. The iBook was Liam's-computer, my new core duo iMac became Liam's-computer-2, but terminal is now reporting the iBook as Liam's-computer-3.
Basically the whole thing is messed up, seemingly because of the stupid date time thing. Can I change the date and time in the Open Firmware?

Sounds like you may need your CMOS battery replaced. It should not be a problem after you replace it.
Also, if you want to prolong your battery life, just detach it during computer use (use AC only). Then while it is turned off I would actually plug it back in so your computer is never without a power source for an extended period of time.
There are many studies suggested that battery life will start decaying after 2-3 years regardless what method you use. I actually recommend making the most use out of it. Hope it helps.

What Brian said is true so are your sure your query was not just reporting the start time of the current transaction from v$transaction.start_time, or the start time of the session: v$session.logon_time, or perhaps the time since the last database call (v$session.last_call_et) which for an active session would be the time the current SQL statement has been running?

        response.setContentType("text/html");
        PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
        java.sql.Date Taskdate = new java.sql.Date(System.currentTimeMillis());
        //long Time1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
        String UserName = request.getParameter("UserName");

}and afrer it get execute only date is store in database but not system time.but i want to store both date and time together.
i am using DATETIME datatype in mysql.

You might want to use TimeStamp and not java.sql.Date which by definition does not include time.
You might also want to close PreparedStatement and Connection in your code.

How Production Order finish date and time is being comptued by SAP?

Hello Expert,
How Production Order finish date and time is being comptued by SAP? for example, we create a Production Order via CO01, the basic start date is 29.09.2008 and time is 04:00 it gives us basic finish date is 29.09.2008 and time is 13:28.
how does SAP compute the time 13:28 as it finished time
Please explain me briefly.
Thanks
Ryan

Hello Guys,
When we create Production Order in R/3 the time is calculated by routing but it is extended at SetUp machine time. It is not correct?. SetUp imachines time used only for first Production Order for the same product and it is plan manually, for others Production Order we need calculate time for production without SetUp machine time being pick up to compute finish time. how could we achieve this? only those Machine time will be check.
thanks

Aperture 2: malfunction when adjusting image date and time

Hello,
When I'm adjusting date and time for a group of images the following malfunction occurs:
The time is shifted by the difference between first and last image into the past, if the first image is the active one and into the future, if the last image is the active one.
E.g.:
Original: 23.02.08-12:00:00, 23.02.08 - 12:02:00, 23.02.08 - 12:05:00
Correction of first image to 20.02.08 - 12:00:00
Result: 20.02.08 - 11:55:00, 20.02.08 - 11:57:00, 20.02.08 - 12:00:00
Original: 23.02.08-12:00:00, 23.02.08 - 12:02:00, 23.02.08 - 12:05:00
Correction of last image to 20.02.08 - 12:00:00
Result: 20.02.08 - 12:05:00, 20.02.08 - 12:07:00, 20.02.08 - 12:10:00
