Finder dosn't sort by time correctly

I decided after a long time to upgrade to mavericks from snow leopard. Apart from some issues it works pretty well. However one issue is really annoying. When I choose to sort by "date" it only groups the files in "today" "yestarday" and so on. Finder does not take the individual time into consideration. So for example, a file from 18:33 can be shown as before a file from 13:37. Why can't finder sort the files completly?!
Sincerely Henrik

Hi HenrikNord,
You may be able to arrange the files more to your liking by adjusting the settings in Item Arrangement button (Mavericks has both a Sort and Arrange option). You may find the following articles helpful:

Numbers not sorting date/time correctly

I would be grateful if someone can chime in - it's very simple thing and maybe I'm overlooking something.
I have 3 columns:
DATE - DESCRIPTION - TIME
I need to sort them out by date, then by time.
It works only for date cells - upon inspection I have noticed that time cells have creation date stamp as well which messes sorting up.
Any suggestions ?
Sorting like this works fine in Excel.

Hi Alex,
As has been stated (or implied) above, every every date and/or time displayed in Numbers is a Date and Time value marking a specific instant in time.
Values that have been entered as date only (eg. October 1, 2012) mark the instant that day begins (eg. October 1, 2012 00:00:00).
Values that have been entered as time only mark that instant on the day on which the entry was made (or in cases such as pop-up menu items, the day on which the item was created as a menu item).
Values that have been entered as full Date and Time values mark the date and time that was entered.
Here are three possible approaches to sorting your table 'correctly':
Enter the Date and Time as a single and complete Date and time value (see example above), using a single column for these entries.
OR
Add a column containing a formula that extracts the time value from the Date and Time values in column C of your example table, then do the two-stage sort on your Date column then the new column as described in your initial post. See example below.
Before sorting:
After sorting (as indicated in Reorganize pane):
OR
Format your "Time" column as Text. Enter all "Time"s in 24 hour format (00:00 to 23:59), and use the two-stage sort you describe.
Each of these will sort correctly using Numbers as it is supplied. Should you think Numbers shoud stop supporting ISO 8601, the International Standard for the representation of dates and times, the most effective place to make that recommendation would be via the Feedback channel. Use the Provide Numbers Feedback menu item in the Numbers menu (in Numbers) to request this change.

To find the latest date and time

HI all,
I have a Ztable which contains execution date and exe time.
1) I need to find the latest date and time How can we do this?
2) In my program,I need to insert some values to date,time and status field in Ztable. How can I insert it directly into the table?
for eg ZTAB-DATE = 010122006
        ZTAB-TIME = 12.20.20
      just INSERT ZTAB is enough or NOT????????????
POINTS WILL BE REWARDED
THANKS IN ADVANCE

1) You can do a number of things, one you can get all of the relevant records and sort the internal table by date and time in decending order, then simply read the first record of the internal table.
2) It depends on the key of the table. Say for example, you have a table like so.
MANDT
KEYFIELD
DATE
TIME
If the key alreays exists, you can use the modify statement to update the record, if it dosn't exists, you need to use the INSERT statement to insert the records.
data: xtab type ztable.
xtab-keyfield = 'ABC'.
xtab-date = '20070207'. " or sy-datum
xtab-time = '221600'.    " or sy-uzeit.
insert ztable from xtab.
Make sure to use internal fomat for DATE and TIME.

Raw and CR2 files won't sort by time

I recently shot a wedding with my Nikon while my second shooter shot with her Canon. We made sure the times were the same so that Lightroom could work its organization magic. After I uploaded them, the CR2 files showed up above the Raw files. All of the images are in one folder and I have it set to Sort by Capture Time, but they will not mix together according to their times.
When I uploaded my Nikon images I realized that my year was off. It was set to 2010 instead of 2011, so I changed the metadata accordingly and it changed to the correct year for all of my Nikon images. I uploaded the Canon images after that incident, but they still won't sort by time. Do you think that metadata change has something to do with the images not mixing together or it is the file names?
There are about 1400 images all together it will be quite an exhausting experience to have to organize them myself. So I would definitely appreciate some help!
Thanks!!
Ruth

Check the timezone of each filetype.
The US is several hours behind GMT so if the corrected NEFs are GMT-relative while the CR2s are US-time-zone-relative that could explain the issue, or maybe one camera had timezones set on it and one didn’t and the difference has nothing to do with the metadata correction you did.
Did your metadata correction update the headers of the RAW files, themselves, or just LR’s internal information in its database and/or XMP files?
If the RAW files were modified, check the timestamps with EXIFtool:
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/
If only the LR-stored metadata was modified, not the RAW files, themselves, then create an XMP file for one CR2 and one NEF taken about the same time, using Metadata->Write Metadata to File(s), and examine the two XMP files in a text editor to see what the timestamps and timezones say.

Time correction of camera and gps

The time captured on Image by Camera [Nikon as well as Canon] is in IST. The time Captured in GPS-xml is in GMT.
So when I want to match these two, I will have to convert them to same reference like this.
1. Capture Image time say imageTimeIST
2. Convert it to GMT say imageTimeGMT [Search for support in java.util.Date or Calendar class]
You know that there is even difference between the two devices. We have found that the difference is approximately 6 minutes 7 seconds [find correct value]
We need to give this correction.
1.
2.
3. Compute this difference [I had given you times shown by all three devices at the same moment] needs to be done only once initially.
4. Add this difference to imageTimeGMT so that this new time is comparable with GPS xml.
5. Find out just less and just more records matching from the xml. [here SAX parser will be of help]
6. Interpolate and find values for required exact time.

When will AD member computers sync after DC time correction?

Today I discovered that about 6 months ago, someone had reconfigured our PDC emulator to sync from non-existent time servers, causing it (and in effect everything else in AD) to be off by 37 seconds from the intended, reliable NTP server. I corrected
it on the PDC emulator and made sure the other DCs got in sync with it. (We have one domain, forest and site so that part was easy.)
Since I did that, many member computers are off from the DCs by 37 seconds, which is expected. Many of them show Event ID 50 in the System Log: "The time service detected a time difference of greater than 5000 milliseconds for 900 seconds.......When
a valid time stamp is received from a time service provider, the time service will correct itself".
I assume I don't have too much to worry about since it's well within the 5 minute difference allowed by Kerberos. However, it's now been 5 hours since then time correction on the DCs and when I spot check clients, many are still off by 37 seconds.
When will these member computers correct their clocks WITHOUT INTERVENTION? I'm wondering how they will find a "valid time stamp".
Thanks.

To for your client computers to synchronize now, you can write a script that will
w32tm /resync command remotely on them: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/2deee709-2840-49d6-8fd4-de14e860de7a/how-do-i-force-all-clients-in-domain-to-syncronize-time-now-remotely?forum=winservergen

Sorting not working correctly for date field in alv report

Hi All,
My report displays many rows also containing date type fields of bldat,budat .
When I sort the report selecting field of type bldat budat the sorting is not correct for the year.
Ex:
Invoice doc dat
01-25-2011
01-21-2011
02-02-2011
10-25-2010
11-20-2010
If I use ascending then it is sorted as :
Invoice doc dat
01-21-2011
01-25-2011
02-02-2011
10-20-2010
10-25-2010
Why the sorting is not working correct for year.(2010 records should have been first).
The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10.
It is populated as wa_tab-bldat = bsak-bldat.
Kindly suggest what can be done.

The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10
Then what it does is correct.
Refer to type datum...it will work

Can I find an iphoto events in time machine

Using a macbook pro with Lion 10.7 how can I find an iphoto event in time machine hard drive back up. When I look in picture folder for a back up date I see some individual pictures and an icon for iphoto library. I thought clicking on that would show me iphoto application with the events just as it looks in current time only with the events of the past date. It does not.

Not really - you need to restore the iPhoto library then open it with iPhoto - iPhoto can not access TM backups - they have to be restored first

I deleted the photos via Finder and empty trash long time ago. The thing is, that I want to recover one event or album. The event appears in the iphoto but when open, it shows "!". Is it possible to recover the photos?

I deleted the photos via Finder and empty trash long time ago. The thing is, that I want to recover one event or album. The event appears in the iphoto but when open, it shows "!". Is it possible to recover the photos?

No. When you removed the photos via the finder you damage the library. Photos should always be removed from the library using iPhoto, never with the Finder.
If you have a Time Machine backup of the library from before you deleted the photos you can restore the library to the Desktop and export that album from it to import into your current library.
It's been too long to be able to try one of the file recovery applications. You sure to have overwritten those files with new files since them.

Sort by time only is it possible?

If I import images taken on two different cameras which have synchronised time and I use the sort by time and date function LR3 does that but separates the images into two groups sorted by time ,each group is in the time order but for each camera model
Is it possible to sort all the images purely by time only? I am doing weddings and the sort by time helps the work flow no end .

I shoot jpgs so I hadn't noticed! I only use the "set file created date to taken date" and "rename files to" %Y-%m-%d-%h-%m-%S - %%f But it worked well enough for me to invest the 12USD in it! :-)
Just looked again, the 12 dollar version works with RAW.
Interesting that LR will do it for free though!

How can i find the original picture in the correct event folder from an album folder picture?

how can i find the original picture in the correct event folder from an album folder picture? I can find the link to the original event folder, but is there a way to get right to the picture without having to search visually the event folder?

Depends on whatr you mean
Deleting from your phone does not delete from anywhere else
HOWEVER deleting from your Photo stream does delete from the Photostream so anyone looking at the PS from any device will no longer see the photo
But if your Mac iPhoto is set to automatically impor tphotos form PS or is you have manually imported photos from PS then onc ethey are imported they are on your Mac and change to PS will not affect them
for more on PS see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

WHen i updateed my iPhone 4s to iOS 8 my messages did not sort by time
please help me

You can delete a photo from a message conversation by tapping and holding the photo, then tap More... above the photo, confirm that the photo has a check to the left of it, then tap the trash icon. You can also scroll through the conversation and tap multiple items to select them before tapping the trash icon.
