HT201317 Is there a way to tell when a photo in your photo stream was taken?

Is there a way to tell when a photo was added to photo stream. How do photos appear on photo stream? Are they downloaded from my iPhone when I save a picture that was texted to me? Do they then go right into my photo stream?

Photos added to camera roll are added to your photo stream (when the camera app is closed, you are connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining). When you save a photo from a text message it is saved to your camera roll, and is therefore also added to your photo stream. You can't, however, tell when such a photo was added.

Is there a way to tell when an app was added to login items?

Is there a way to tell the exact date when an app was added to login items? (eg. through terminal or console?).
TIA

No. Login items are created when you add an app through
 > System Prefs > Users & Groups | Login Items
and is a list specifically used for running and app on login to a particular users account (not boot in general). At least AFAIK, this has nothing to do with installing the app to the system.
I'm writing a bash diagnostic script which needs to call this info.

Is there a way to tell when the trash bin in iPhoto was emptied?

I am a teacher. I lost some very important photos and was under the impression that one of my students deleted them because she was mad at me. I was confused about how she did this because the main trash bin was still completely full. I didn't think until I got home about the trash bin in iPhoto. After a couple of tests, I think this is probably how she deleted the (since-recovered) photos.
My question is, am I able to tell when photos were deleted from iPhoto?

None that I know of.

Is there a way to tell when an iphone 3g was manufactured?

I'm on my third iphone. The first two had various hardware problems. The newest one is working fairly well...except that it says 'no service' at times when I switch over to 3G. Like the other two phones...they all work great for the first few days and then start to experience problems...especially during a call lasting more than 5 minutes.
But here's the problem: the last iphone I received as a replacement looks, well...used. The one I'm sending back is in better overall shape.
I was wondering if there was a way to check to see when this latest iphone was manufactured? I would like to know if I'm getting a recycled phone...or at the very least if it was built before or after the one I'm returning.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Is there any way to tell when a task has a lock

Normally I can just keep track of it. But upon an external termination I can get into problems. If I don't release a lock, well it stays locked. If I release it and don't have it I get a run time error. But I can't find a way to ask a lock if I have it.

ChasGI,
Unfortunately, there is not a way to query a lock to determine what/who posseses it.
The Get Status lock operation returns the Number of Threads Waiting to Lock the Lock. You could get creative with that.

Is there any way to tell when a device was last synced?

I have misplaced my iPad and to cut a long story short, by knowing the last time it synced over wifi will give me a starting point as to where it could be.

You can look in Finder under
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
~ is your Home folder.

HT201317 Is there a way to permanently save my photos to the iCloud? .

I thought they were being saved but just found out they are being deleted after 30 days. The whole reason I was using iCloud was for photo storage.

You can by adding them to a shared stream and inviting yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). Shared streams are not deleted after 30 days. But if you accidentally delete the shared stream, you'll lose your photos.
The smartest thing to do is to import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

AVM1 into AVM2. Is there a way to tell which is being loaded?

I have an app that users can load SWF files into. It's
written in AS3 (AVM2).
Currently, they can load both AVM1 and AVM2 SWF files into
it. Id like to give the users an alert when they load AVM1 content.
Is there a way to tell when AVM1 is being loaded...maybe a property
I should check in the loaded SWF?

I figured it out. Thanks.

In the Lync Database, is there a way to tell if a call has been answered or gone to voicemail?

We are using Lync 2010.
In Lync, if a call is not answered, and does not go to voicemail, is anything recorded in the Lync database ?
It looks to me as if nothing is recorded in the database, but I was wondering if there is an option in Lync configuration to make Lync record such activity in its database.
Is there a way to tell from the LYnc database if a call was answered by a person or went to voicemail
I have been looking at the LCSCDR database, at the sessionDetails table, but cannot see a way of distinguising between these scenarios.

Nothing is recorded if the call is not answered and does not go to voicemail. This is a source of frustration for me, and there is no way that I'm aware of to record this information to the LCSCdr database.
To see if voicemail answered, you want to look at the client version that answered the call, voicemail will say ExchangeUM. You can see me messing around with this in the below example, pulling from SessionDetails.User2ClientVerId and matching against
the ClientVersions table.

Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code?

Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code? Itunes tries to sync all night and posts 50 unknown errors. I unlock the phone and it syncs. I dont want my phone sitting around without a lock code but with wireless sync I cant find a place to tell itunes my code so it can sync? Any help is appreciated... Ray O

I have the same problem. I am forced to have a PIN set on my devices because I use my corporate exchange email and sync over wi-fi initially fails until I manually unlock the phone/ipad. #ckuan needs to read the words wiritten. We know how it's supposed to work but it won't start until you enter the PIN. Until then I get error messages saying either it cannot find the phone or explicitly telling me I need to unlock it.

Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
=T20+1
but also in
=SUM(T)
=SUM(20:20)
=SUM(S19:U22)
=OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
=INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

Is there a way to tell what is actually being passed to DB from PreparedSta

Is there a way to tell what is actually being passed to DB from PreparedStatement? What I mean by that is that I have a PreparedStatement that is a simple
prepstmt = connection.prepareStatement("Insert into table (col1, col2, col3, .... colx) values (?,?,?....?)");
(there are x ?s)
I precompile this, and later, when there is a connection I call set all the variables
prepstmt.setInt(1, someint); prepstmt.setString(2, "\\'" + somestring + "\\'"); etc... prepstmt.executeUpdate();
I get back an exception thrown by Oracle complaining that one of my values is too large for the column (but doesn't say what column/value).
So I made a string that contains what ought to be the same query
String debug = "Insert into table (col1, col2, col3, .... colx) values (someint,'somestring',etc....someotherint)"; System.out.println(debug);
I give the printed out line directly to Oracle through SQLScratchpad and it works just fine in there and I can confirm the row has been inserted. Nothing is too big.
Is there a way to look at what the PreparedStatement actually has as values in there? I found I could look at the original statement (the one with the ?s) if I expand the prepstmt object in the debugger's (Eclipse) view, but nothing to show me where the values were filled in.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hrm, I'm suspecting that perhaps it has to do something with setting CHAR fields. Some of the fields in this table are CHAR but I don't see a call in my PreparedStatement that can set a char, only a String, so that's what I've been using, but it may be that that's not the right thing to do. I'm running Java 1.5.10, and looking through the API there doesn't seem to be anything specifically for char.

Do I need to be worried? Is there a way to tell if I have a bad MacBook?

Hello all,
I just picked up a used MacBook Pro from a friend for $650. It is within the dates that there was the issues with the video chipsets from NIVIDIA. This notebook was not used that extensively, I don't think, so I am not sure if I am in the clear regarding this issue or not. Is there a way to tell if this MacBook is covered under he known issue even though it is beyond all coverage. It notes that if the issue appears within the 1st 4 years of purchase, it will be covered. Is this the best that they can do? Or can an apple guy run something on the system, or look up my S/N# and tell me if I have a notebook with the issue?
Reason I ask is to known whether I need to use this for the purpose I bought it for, or if I can rely on it as my main notebook as well.
Thanks for all, or any, help that someone on here can be. Love this notebook (and only had it for a few hours), but just wondering how much it can be trusted, or if there is a way to know.
Thanks you guys...hope I will be welcomed to the MAC club, as I have NEVER owned a MAC until now!

You won't be sure until the day you stop using it or it develops issues.

Correct. NVIDIA issue
Is this the best that they can do?
At this point, it is what it is. Anything beyond this would be at Apple's discretion, on a case-by-case basis.

You've already noted that your MBP falls within the range. It does have the GPU that may develop the issue. If the issue is occurring now, their test will show it. If the issue is not currently occurring, the test will not show it. The test tests whether or not the issue is occurring, it's not a predictor as to if/when it will occur. Some GPUs within that range will not develop the issue.
Reason I ask is to known whether I need to use this for the purpose I bought it for, or if I can rely on it as my main notebook as well.
I would feel comfortable using it as my main computer (I have a MBP that also falls in that range), but this computer or any other in the world could develop issues at any time. I backup frequently and in different ways and strongly recommend that you do, and everyone else does too. Every HD will die at some point in ongoing use. Some will take seconds, some years. Some will give notice, some not. Some will leave platters with recoverable data, some will have the platters gouged by failed heads, with little to no recovery possible. The only safe computing is by backing up data (and although I've never had to resort to it, having a second machine available; I keep most of my "old" Macs, so if my "main" machine would ever go down, I can just grab my data from a backup and keep going).
Thanks for all, or any, help that someone on here can be. Love this notebook (and only had it for a few hours), but just wondering how much it can be trusted, or if there is a way to know.
Heat is a big enemy of electronics. Monitor periodically with iStat Pro. Fans should speed up long before CPU hits thermal shutdown range of 100C.

Is there some way to tell lightroom to just re-export the previously exported files?

Shot a celebration (Park, Mass and Party), went home and processed the raw files in Lightroom, Exported them into 3 folders.
Then I proceeded to edit the files in photoshop, first folder that consisted of the park went well. Files looks great, even after compressing them again.
Then up were the Mass pictures and that's where it all went down hill. When I loaded up the first image it was compressed to hell All the black areas were all pixelated, so I went into lightroom and sure enough it changed the quality from 100% down to 60%!
All my other settings were the same so I didn't accidentally reset the whole thing. Not sure why or how Lightroom did this, I've had it on 100% for the past 2 years!
Now I have to export them all over again, the trouble is there was 800 that I culled down to just 150. I really don't want to hand pick them all over again.
Is there some way to tell lightroom to just re-export the previously exported files?

The short answer: no.
Lightroom remembers recently imported files in a collection, but does not remember recently exported files.
That said, you could use the SQLiteroom plugin (free, by me) to round up a collection of *all* exported files, which might help.
