How do I set the Time of Day that a sync will occur?

Like a lot of Aussies I have an ISP plan that has Peak/Off-Peak hours. What I want to do is have my iTunes do all it's sync/podcast updates at a certain time (say 4AM) when I'm not doing anything else, it's taken from my Off-Peak monthly usage total and leaving me both free bandwidth and Peak time capacity for the month.
I notice I can set my Podcast updates to check daily, but how does one set the time of the day?

I believe that when it has attempted to download (or actually downloaded) it automatically schedules the next attempt after the time period. To make it execute your downloads at 4AM, get up at 4AM once and force it to check for downloads, it should schedule the next attempt at 4AM the next day, then the following, etc.
I would schedule the first download early in the offpeak hours so that if there is any drift in the time, it wouldn.t run into the peak hours.

  • HT201250 How do I set the time of day and interval I want  Time Machine to perform backup?

    Time Machine keeps starting its backup when I'm using my mac.  I would like it to do its backup overnight - when I'm not using it.  How do I set this?  I'd also only like to do backups once a week.
    Can I also configure it to perform backup on an external hard drive as well as the internal hard drive?

  • How can I change the time of day that Automatic Updates installs?

    In Yosemite, you can choose to have apps and/or OS X system updates install automatically when available.  http://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201541 says this happens 'overnight'. It's unclear whether this means the computer has to be left on overnight for the update to happen, but I'm assuming it does.
    Is there any way of changing the time when the updates are installed? Could I set it to happen in the morning so I don't have to leave the computer on all night?

  • How can I set the number of day that FF remembers a visited site?

    Using FF 8, a visited site link turns color to show it has been visited. I would like to have that color go back to normal after 14 days. In other words, I want FF to remember that I visited a site by turning the link a different color for only 14 days. Right now it seems to last forever. The link never changes back to normal, so I can't easily tell when I was last on the site.
    I do use sync.
    I looked through the about:config, but don't seem to be able to find a pref that will do this.

    You can do it manually if you like with code in the Error Console.
    Copy and paste the code in the Code field in the Error Console and click the Evaluate button.

  • How do you set the time period on IMAP email accounts (razr maxx)

    Hi Guys -
    Does anyone know how you can set the time period that the stock email will keep the already downloaded messages for IMAP email accounts?
    Mine never seems to show more than a couple of days worth at a time. I'd ideally like to be able to see at least 2 weeks worth of messages without needing to download them again!
    On other phones I've had there was a setting in the menu, but either I can't find it...or it's not there. I've found the setting for how OFTEN it checks the accounts, but not the setting I am seeking.
    Your help is appreciated!
    Best Wishes for the Holiday Season.

    Hey Rich.  Once in 'settings,' there should be a "days to sync' under the 'data usage' section.   You don't have that?

  • How do you change the time of day presets in ical?

    How do you change the time of day presets in ical?  I would like them to be only 1 hour difference, with the preset start times of 10:00 am and end time of 6:00 pm, if I have anything starting after 4:00 pm it also changes the date to the next day.  Incredibly annoying!

  • How can i set the number of results that can be displayed on the page

    hello im just wondering how i can set the numebr of results that can be dispaleyd on the jsp, when the there are more than 5 results i want the suer to press more
    how is this odne could anyone send me a example code?
    and also how can i get results from the query displayed as select list options, so that when they press one of teh results it goes to correspnding page
    Thank you

    Hi,
    I assume that you have the connection to the DB.
    You can try this code.
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
    String sql = "<some sql code for selecting>";
    ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    rs.last();
    int count = rs.getRow(); // this is the number that shows how many numbers you have after select query
    rs.first(); //we moved cursor again to the begining of the results.
    if (count > 5) {
    for (int i=0;i<5;i++) {
      //as an example
      rs.getString(0);
      rs.getString(1);
      rs.getString(2);
    out.print("<a href='morePage.jsp'>More</a>");
    else {
    for (int i=0;i<count;i++){
      //as an example
      rs.getString(0);
      rs.getString(1);
      rs.getString(2);
    rs.close();
    stmt.close();I hope this would help you.
    If you have problems let me know..

  • How do i set the time frame of a waveform chart programmatically to be a 30 sec window or a 24 hour window

    i'm using LV7.0 and what i need to do is to be able to set the time frame or range of a waveform chart programmatically before i start taking and plotting data. sometimes this window needs to be 30s wide and sometimes it needs to be 24 hrs wide. (in the first reference, i need the chart to fill up with 30s of historical data then the whole chart scrolls with each new data point). the data acquisition records data at a rate of once per second. i've tried to use the chart properties of XScale.offset, XScale.Range.Minimum and XScale.Range.Maximum but no matter what i do the time-stamp on the x-axis is always "00:00:00 PM" and "MM/DD/YYYY" even though values are seen being plotted on the right side of the chart as expected.

    Okay, there seems to be some confusion here -- the X axis values are of type double, but they can be represented in the HH:MMS MMD:YYYY format if you want in which case it interprets the floating point as the number of seconds since 6pm Dec 31, 1903. 
    You can programmatically set this value using the XScale.Minimum and XScale.Maximum properties, but note that if you wire a waveform to the chart after setting these values the t0 parameter will override what you set using the property node for XScale.Minimum.  If instead you leave the t0 parameter empty you can use the XScale.Offset property and wire the same value in that you wire to XScale.Minimum.  Changing the amount you add to XScale.Minmum to obtain what you wire into XScale.Maximum will determine the time window size.

  • How can I set the time in Time-based Access control ??

    I live in Denmark, where we use the 24 hour system.
    So I want to set the time-based access control to from 7.00 in the morning to 2.00 at night, but every time the Timecapsule says wrong time format, I can use the night time 23.59, but thats not late enough.

    Set two controls.. 7 to 23.59 and 00.01 to 00.20
    This is common as the control cannot handle times longer than 1day.

  • How do i set the time on the clo

    Sorry i know it sounds dumb but i couldnt figure out how to change the date or change the current time on my mp3 player
    thanks

    It's easy, as long as you don't try to do something intuiti've like change it from the same place you display it.
    Goto Extras --> Date & Time. When the date/time is displayed, click the menu (lower right) and pick "Set Time".
