How do you change the last opened date in Lion?

In many screens the files are organized automatically by last opened date.  This information is not available when you click command info on the individual file, however, if you list out the files and click on the option to show last opened on the row on the top you will see this information.
From time to time it is useful to change the creation and modification dates to move where files are displayed in various windows.  While there are utilities and articles about changing the creation and last modified date using third party software or the terminal, I have not been able to find any way to change the last opened date.  This is useful if you wish to hide a file you recently opened so that another user can't just find it as one of the last opened files. 
When I googled this question all the solutions using terminal either with touch -t or touch -mt commands changed the creation and modification dates, but did not affect the last opened date.
Anyone have a solution to this?

Thank you MacNix!!!!!

  • How can you find the Last Modified Date of a particular table

    Hi,
    I want to show to the LAST MODIFIED date of a particular table to the user before refreshing the table with new data. Experts please suggest me the way using JDBC-SQL connection.

    There is no generic SQL way for this. It depends completely on the features your DBMS offers. With Oracle you'd need to create column which gets updated in a trigger. I believe MS SQL Server offers a special data type for this, which is updated automatically. I don't know about others.

  • How do you change the ordering of data in the iPhone Addressbook?

    I have noticed that when I manually enter contact information into the iphone addressbook I can control the order in which numbers appear. For example I like to have my phone numbers in the order, Work -> Home -> Mobile -> Fax. On the desktop addressbook client I have set it up this way, but when I sync to the iPhone the numbers seem to come into the contact in any number of orders, with no descernable pattern. Anyone know of a way to fix this other than modifying each contact by hand on the iPhone?
    Moving forward apple should configure the sync to honor the order the desktop Addressbook has them configured in.

    Super fast resolution per Tiffany of Apple Support (Thanks, Tiffany!) - it's a bug in the Slideshow Button featured at the bottom of Albums and Events windows. You will need to create an actual slideshow, as follows:
    Select the images you want to use --> chose "Add To" --> "Slideshow"--> "New" or chose an existing slideshow.
    You will be able to manipulate your slideshow options (theme, music, order, etc) from there.

  • How do you change the position of email sender so that it's on the left (sender[from], subject and date received)

    How do you change the position of email sender so that it's on the left (sender[from], subject and date received)

    In the Thread Pane where your messages are listed?
    You see that bar with the labels "From", "Subject", "Date" and so on? Well, they are buttons. You can click on them to sort your messages. You can also drag them with the mouse left and right to reposition them, and you can drag their ends to change the column widths.
    These are standard computer actions; you can do all of this in Windows Explorer ("My Computer") too.
    In Thunderbird, a right-click on any of these buttons will reveal a pop-up menu where you can select and deselect the columns to control what is shown.

    How do you change the dates on your iphoto pictures?

    You'd need an app that can edit EXIF data. You can't do that natively on an iPhone but there may be apps in the App Store that will let you do it. Take a look at Snapseed. I think it might.

    Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update.

  • How do we can change the last done dates of Planned operation by EM orders?

    Hi colleagues
    i defined four opertions for one equipment as performance based or time based plans and scheduled it for next month. then we received a EM notification for mentioned equipment. we iisued order for EM notification and  maintenance opertor carried out the orders but while he doing the EM process , he did two opertion of preventive maintenance from mentioned plan.
    we can add mentioned operations in EM orders as operations but the question is that after we confirm the EM orders and enter the actual dates , and it seems that the last done dates of assigned two operations must be change in PM plans.!
    Is there any solution for it or not?
    Thanks
    Akbar

    Hi Carlos
    thanks for ur attention
    actually i want change the last done dates of some opetions in my scheduled maintenance orders by assigning them to EM orders as operations.
    for example:
    i received a EM orders with this description : oil leakage from sight glass of hydraulic pumps
    in the proceesing of EM order , i will eliminate the leakage and also change the oil of pump .
    the changing the oils is the one of our shecduled Maintenance plan that is it would be called on next month.
    in the confirmation of EM order , i will add this operation from equipment task list ( change the oil) and enter the dates and another data.
    it's obvious that mentioned opertion should not be schedule on next month and according to it's package sequence , the new date for changing the oil must be 3 month later form the date that we entered on EM order.
    Thanks

  • How can we update the last synchronization date and time..on SUP in sccm 2012 R2

    Hi,
        Can you any one please guide me how can i update the last  synchronization date & time in SUP on SCCM2012 r2 , some how its updated as future date and when ever i try to synch the SUP with disconnected WSUS its shows in the wsyncmgr.log 
    "Wakeup for a polling cycle " and  " Wakeupby inbox drop" and "Wakeup by SCF change"  
    Thanks 
    Balaji K

    You'll probably have to call CSS on this one as this not normal by any means. The messages you noted above are completely normal but if that's all you are seeing then there's an issue.
    Have you reviewed wcm.log and wsusctrl.log?

  • How do you change the colors of individual cells within a 2D array?

    How do you change the colors of individual cells within a 2D array of numeric indicators?
    I want the VI to check a data value and if it is failing, white out a square at a specific index coordinate.  I have it working with color boxes, but I'm not sure how to use the property node function, to change the color of individual cells, by coordinates.
    I have attached the VI using color boxes. If you run the VI, the box corresponding to the Step control should turn white.
    I want to do the same thing, using numeric indicator boxes inside the array.
    Thanks for any suggestions...

    Get rid of all these sequences! That's just bad form.
    Your code has a few logical problems. Why do you create a boolean array if you later only look at the last element (Yes, the FOR loop does nothing useful, except in the last iteration because your outputs are not indexing. All other iterations are useless, you only get the result of the last array element. My guess is that you want to color the index white if at least one of the numbers is out if range. Right?
    It is an absolute nightmare to manage all your numeric labels. Just read them from a 2D array. Now you can simply find the index of the matched elements and don't have to spend hours editing case structure conditions.
    Attached is a simple example how you would do what I meant (LV7.1). Modify as needed.
