Ftp displays wrong time in Win7 explorer - other computers on XP or previous see the correct time

NO ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IN OVER A YEAR? Shame on Microsoft
Windows7,
Explorer is showing a -6 hour difference in time from my actualfile
date. This is NOT simply the time difference between my computer
(in Central time zone) and the server (on Eastern time). Explorer is ignoring the server's time stamp and subtracting exactly 6 hours from the time of the what the server should say. I know this because I'm also looking at the exact same folder and files using
XP and the time stamps are exactly as they should be. I modified a file locally (on Windows 7) and copied it up to the server. The time stamp local is 9:36a. The time stamp on the server should be 10:36a, but instead it says 4:36a. So, I copied a file from
the server back to here and it reports locally 6 hours later (10:38a) than what is on the server (4:38a). Looking at the exact same files through explorer on XP shows that the time should have been 10:38a.
If it wasn't for time showing correctly on XP, I'd assume it was a problem at the server, but there seems to be something in either the display of time, or in the way it sends thefile'stime-stamp.
And now I'm testing it on another ftpserver,
which I think has their time set to UTC (my 10:00a is their 4:00p). Using XP, I create a brand new file locally, and transmit it to this server. It initially appears with the same timestamp as the original file (10:16a). I then do a refresh of the server list
(in XP) and it jumps forward 6 hours (4:16p). I look at this server with Windows 7 and it shows that the file has a timestamp of 10:16a. So Icopy
that file (using Windows 7) to its local drive and it tells me that the timestamp is 4:16p (later today).
I've triple-checked my PC's time settings (set to UTC-06:00 Central Time). I've verified with the first server's techies that the PC is in Eastern time (I've not reached the other server's people yet). In both cases, however, Windows 7 is showing the time of
the files on the ftp servers to be 6 hours earlier than their actual time-stamp.

I have had the same problem with WIN7 explorer, viewing file timestamps with FTP on a remote web server. If you copy the remote URL address and use IE9 to view the same folder, you will see the correct file timestamps.  Also if you temporarily change
the time zone on your local machine to "Coordinated Universal Time" UTC-0 then you will see the correct file timestamps of when the files were actually created on the remote server. I guess that Microsoft chose to make this change in Windows 7 so that
we would be aware that FTP on servers actually use UTC-0 time for a timestamp when they create a new file.  Just remember to change your local machine time zone back to normal when you are done.

  • JSP page display wrong time when compared to the server time

    Hi,
    This problem seems to weird but it is happening
    I have web application running where time is displayed in the page. In this application time is very critical. Currently, time is an hour behind the orginal time.
    I checked the server it is displaying proper time.
    As a matter of troubleshooting, I wrote a java program and run the program in the same server, where the application is running. The java program returns me proper time , but JSP is still displaying time an hour behind. To trouble shoot further, I created a test jsp page to just display the time and accessed the time and the jsp displayed wrong time as well, an hour behind.
    I am running[ tomcat 4.0.3 and j2sdk1.4.3 in suse linux enterprise server 9.0
    My Java program
    import java.util.*;
    import java.text.*;
    public class TestDate
    public static void main(String s[])
         try{
              DateFormat DF = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd/MM/yyyy");
    DateFormat DT = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm aa");
              SimpleDateFormat fmt=new SimpleDateFormat("HH.mm");
              Calendar cal= Calendar.getInstance();
              java.util.Date dt=cal.getTime();

              int aa = cal.get(Calendar.AM_PM);
              System.out.println("Time" + hh +":"+mm+":"+aa+"\n");

    %>
    <%=hh%> <%=mm%> <%=aa%>
    This display 2 30 1
    When I run Date in linux server it gives 3:30 PM EST 2004
    I am really confused, why this is happening, If you have any solutions or idea please post the solution.

    My guess is that the weirdness is caused by Daylight savings time.
    I will presume that you and the server are in the same timezone :-)
    Alternatively it could be caused by getting a different Locale.
    Try the following
    Print out "date.getTime()" value (ie long representing number of millis)
    They should be the same (or close) in both the app and in JSP
    Try simple date format in your JSP as well - what does that result in?
    Print the calendar object, and look for the difference.
    It might be in Locale, Timezone, or whether DST is set or not.
    Hope this helps,

  • [SOLVED] Arch displays wrong time - 2 hours forward

    Hi.
    After package upgrade today and reboot, my clock displays wrong time - it's going 2 hours too fast.
    I didn't changed anything in rc.conf. BIOS clock is fine.
    I us localtime, timezone: Europe/Warsaw.
    How can I repair it?
    EDIT: I just used date to re-adjust my clock.

    Same Problem, solved by setting "localtime" instead of "local" in rc.conf.
    I don't know what changed because it worked before. Maybe an update in scripts that did recognize "local" but doesn't anymore ?
    ++ B.
    EDIT : [2009-08-24 13:37] upgraded initscripts (2009.07-3 -> 2009.08-1) that may be caused by that initscripts update !
    EDIT 2 : It is the initscripts, I did not see I had a pacnew rc.conf

  • When I click on my iPad App Store Updates, the wrong apple ID is showing up. When I go under settings the correct one is displayed under the app store.

    When I click on my iPad App Store Updates, the wrong apple ID is showing up. When I go under settings the correct one is displayed under the app store.

    Does the wrong Apple ID show up with a particular App or all Apps?
    Apps are linked to the ID they were purchased with, so if you have Apps purchased with different IDs you may need to logout with one then log in with another to update the second one.
    We've also seen were "free" Apps are downloaded from the Internet, but they are not really free but instead were just hacked by a different user so need to be updated with that account.  That can prevent updates.  If so, it's best to delete the bogus app and get a good copy from the App Store.

    Thanks for your reply. Having read through relevant topics it suggests that if I sync my iphone with the correct account on my pc it should use that one thereafter. i will try both.

    I'm very glad that helped!
    It's good you looked in the Manual first. Certainly not everyone does that.
    With Apple products, I've found that not everything is completely documented, but sometimes if you try something that seems like it should work, it actually does work.
    That's how I personally learned about this feature.

    That indicates a hardware failure. Read here:

    If nothing works, you most likely have a hardware failure. Make an appointment at an Apple store to confirm.

  • HT4889 Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive, it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive. Why is it looking for other computers?

    I'm trying to use Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive. I told it to look for a drive, yet it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive ... it just endlessly looks for other computers. Why is it looking for other computers at all, when I told it not to?

    Wow, the wording in Migration Assistant is misleading. I've never used it before, so I thought I would try to copy my files from the external drive ... my old iMac died, but I managed to get everything I need off it, using the 'cp' command in single-user mode. So I guess I'll just have to manually copy the files from the external drive to the new machine. I was hoping that Migration Assistant might help somehow, but obviously not.
    Thanks for the quick reply!

  • Nano World time displaying wrong time!!

    I just got hold of my ipod nano this morning. Was so looking forward to it till i found out later on that it wouldn't work with my 3rd party USB2 pci card. That was fine, i just used USB1.1 which took really really really long.
    Finally, when it was done, i got to fiddling with it. I toggled to the World Clock and thought it'd be cool to fiddle with it. What i found was that the world clock is displaying all the WRONG times. I'm currently in Perth, Australia which is +8GMT. The ipod's main clock and date are all set correctly, and timezone set to Beijing, which is +8GMT equivalent.
    But, when i get the world clock feature to display with my time, it displays 7AM (the real time is 3PM). It's the same with the other regions/times as well. Anybody else have this problem?
    Hope somebody comes up with a fix
    Thanks!

    First, u pop the CD that came with the nano into your computer. Then, you locate the ipod software updater. Just launch that program, click and restore and follow the on scree instructions.
    You should be good to go after that

  • Why does the iPhone 5c display wrong time?

    My iphone 5c currently started displaying the wrong time. I hadnt updated the software yet and thought this was the source of the issue. After the update was complete the time was still incorrect. I have tried syncing my phone with itunes, deleting world clocks, doing hard resets, even wiped the phone back to factory settings. Nothing has worked

    Ok, so this is a two fold problem.  One just like brad805 pointed out you have to have Settings App > General > Date & Time > if Set Automatically is OFF > ON, if it was ON > OFF > Set Date & Time yourself (but when you bring up this screen to manually set time there is this little reminder about having location services set to ON for it to change time zones correctly).  So, leave it  Settings App > General > Date & Time > if Set Automatically is OFF > ON, now go back to Settings App>Privacy>Location Services>ON (if off).  Once I did this (which mine was off) and I went back to Date & Time instead of it thinking I was in New York, it now showed a very complicated America/Indiana/Indiana... (I suspect this is due to the fact that Indiana has 3 time zones EST, EDT (for the counties that observe) and CDT).  Now time is running automatic and smoothly.  This was on an iPhone 5c 16 GB running 7.1.2 on Verizon.  I hope this helps.
    On a side note, its sad that techs in the store cannot read the screen and Apples little notes on it to help you out.

  • Outlook 2013 calendar displays wrong time on iPhone calendar

    I would like to start by saying this is definitely NOT a time zone issue.  I have researched the internet and apple and have not been able to find a solution as of yet.  This is also not restricted to my phone.  We have our work calendar in Outlook 2013.  When it syncs to my iPhone 5c and my boss' iPhone 4s it displays the time of the event exactly 7 hours earlier.  I have checked the Outlook time zone and the iPhone time zone (in both places, general and the mail/contacts/calendar settings).  They are all displayed in the current time zone.  I have selected and deselected the auto setting for the time zone as well.  Nothing has worked!  I'm wondering if it has something to do with an update.  It was working just fine for years and now all of a sudden displays the wrong time.  PLEASE HELP! Thanks.

    Hi Cath,
    Yes, it is a by default settings to delete meeting requests after it is responded. As what Vasil says, we can change the following Outlook settings to leave the meeting request message in Inbox:
    1. Click File > Options.
    2. In Mail option, on Send messages part, uncheck Delete meeting requests and notifications from Inbox after responding option.
    3. Click OK to save the settings.
    Then check whether the issue persists.

  • Iphone calendar displaying wrong times in day/week view

    I work a lot of night shifts and consequently I input a lot of night shifts to my iphone calendar. They usually work. However, in a couple of weekends time I have some nights which I have input as starting on 30th march 20.45 ending 31st march 08.00, but are showing as starting 30th march 8am ending 20.45!30th march in any of the graphic views. In the event the times and dates are correct
    I've tried deleting and reinputting, tinkering with the time zone and more but nothing is working and it's driving me spare!
    Suggestions please!

    Never use  "Timezone support";  Settings/MailContactsCalendars/Calendars.
    When the settings are correct in the event, and not corresponding in the display:
    Do a "reset": hold the Power Button and the Home Button at the same time, keep holding, when you see the white apple logo appear, let go and let the 5s start.

  • Apple Time Server displaying wrong time

    So I have the option 'Date and Time' I have the 'Set Date and Time Automatically' checked and the apple time server selected. I also have the correct time zone selected. However, the time that is displayed is one day and five hours ahead of the actual time. I know I can manually set the time, but the time stamps on my emails don't change when I do that. So I'd appreciate it if there was a way for me to use the automatic time setting, but have it display the correct time.

    There are three apple timeservers. Try changing to a different one and then back to the correct one.

  • Quickview displays wrong "time" format of Excel document

    Here's an odd one. I have an excel document that has a row who's number format is time. Data entered and save the document. Look at the document in the finder under quickview and all the times are +3 hours. This happens in both Excel 2004 and 2008. It also happens on both my Powerbook and G5 tower. Both PPC. Both 10.5.1
    Can anyone re-create this, or is it just me?

    Hi,
    There is no error from the CRM functionality. If you SAVE the excel,instead of opening it directly and then " open with "
    word pad or notepad, you can see the phone no.s and fax no.s are properly transported to excel.There is a default format setting of
    excel from the Microsoft, so you are getting the default format after opening the excel.
    Steps:
    1.Export to excel.
    2.Choose the BP,PHONE and FAX columns holding the 'CTRL'key.
    3.Right click on the chosen columns and choose "format cells".
    4.Under the tab "number" choose 'number' and and reduce the decimal
    place to '0' and click "OK".
    5.Now you will be able to see the expected format.
    If you are using IE then the excel file that is being generated should be an XML file which would help with the formating issue. But when there is a problem in the generation of the XML file a CSV file is created instead.
    The kind of problems that can cause this could be :
    - Wrong version of Excel (professional needed)
    - Error in encoding (note 1560243 corrects this)
    - Active X Settings on browser are not properly setup or disabled
    - Other problems (some fixed in note 1457261)
    I hope this helps.
