In Thunderbird, how do I change the date format for the column display?

I want the date to show as DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM AM/PM. Although this should be really obvious (and I know I've done it in the past), I can't find where to do this and can't find anything in Thunderbird Help on this, not even when I search "Thunderbird, change date format".

Thunderbird usually uses the computer date and time and settings.
I'm using Windows and notice that TB is using the short date format which I set up under Regional & Language Options.
Are you using the International settings or Date/Time settings?
It should pick up the settings from the 'International' or maybe its called now called 'Language & Text' setting.
not sure which of these suits your macbook:

  • How to use the date format for the given req.?

    I have a requirement which should fetch the datas given by user. The user parameter is the date. The date will fetch the amount of the customer code for that particular month based on the date upto given by the user of that financial year.
    If the user parameter is given as 200703(YYYYMM) it should fetch the datas of the financial year from 200604(YYYYMM) to 200703(YYYYMM). The logic is the user parameter year should fetch the datas of previous year till the user given date and the month should be also do the same. Please do the needfull oracle experts.
    Regards,
    Mark

    As i am new to oracle i need help from you experts, The year and the month as seperate columns both as different data type as number and varchar2. There is no date column in the table.
    Table GTemp:
    DIVISION_CODE NUMBER(2)
    GL_CODE NUMBER(6)
    FINANCIAL_YEAR NUMBER(4)
    FINANCIAL_MONTH VARCHAR2(2)
    Query that i have used:
    SELECT ALL GTEMP.FINANCIAL_YEAR, GTEMP.FINANCIAL_MONTH, GTEMP.GL_CODE
    FROM GTEMP
    WHERE financial_year between 2007 - 1 and 2007
    and financial_month in ('4',' 12')
    and division_code = 11
    order by financial_month
    I know this will not fetch from the date the user parameter enters however is there any other options. Please help me out morgan...

  • Change number / date format for the user at run time

    Hi,
    Can I configure a report in Oracle Answers to display a column in a particular format for one group of users and a different format for another group of users?

    Hi,
    Yes this is possible.
    In the BMM layer duplicate column which is to be formatted for different group of users. And pull it into the presentation layer.
    Suppose Column 1 for the Group 1 users
    and Column 2 for the Group 2 users
    In the presentation layer, double click on the column and give permission for the column 1 for the group 1 users and group 2 users for column.
    First create a report with all the desired columns with Administrator or Presentation Server Administrator Role. And format the columns according to the different group of users.
    In, NQSConfig.ini change the parameter PROJECT_INACCESSIBLE_COLUMN_AS_NULL which is under security section. By default it is set to No. Set it to yes. And restart the services.
    Now logon with the group 1 users and you can see only the column1 and when logged on with group 2 users, you can see the column2.
    And will solve your problem.
    Please let me know if you need step-by-step process for solving.
    Please award if you found this useful/helpful

  • Setting date format for the entire SQL Server installation - SQL Server 2008 R2-2012

    Hi,
    I need to safeguard the behaviour of SQL codes that inserting into SQL tables with some date columns. For this purpose, I need to change the date format for the SQL instance and not using CONVERT and CAST.
    I've seen the SET DATE FORMAT statement, but if I use it, could I solve my problem?

    The language setting is related to the database user.
    BOL: "DEFAULT_LANGUAGE = { NONE | <lcid> | <language name> | <language alias> }              
    Specifies the default language for the new user. If a default language is specified for the user and the default language of the database is later changed, the users default language remains as specified.
    If no default language is specified, the default language for the user will be the default language of the database. If the default language for the user is not specified and the default language of the database is later changed, the default
    language of the user will change to the new default language for the database."
    LINK: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173463.aspx
    The default language setting can be overridden by SET LANGUAGE for the session:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174398.aspx
    Example:
    SET LANGUAGE us_english; -- mdy
    SELECT CAST ('12/13/2014' as DATE); -- 2014-12-13
    GO
    SET LANGUAGE british; -- dmy
    SELECT CAST ('12/13/2014' as DATE);
    GO
    (1 row(s) affected)
    Changed language setting to British.
    Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
    Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.

  • How can I permanently change the date format from the American format to the UK's without having to constantly change it manually every time I start a new spreadsheet?

    This is my first mac so I'm still getting my bearings with it. I've only used Windows programmes before. I can't understand why it's so hard to change the date format of the cells in Numbers to keep it showing the UK format. The system preferences of the mac show that it's in the correct region and has the correct date but this doesn't seem to transfer into the Numbers program. I was very impressed with the mac until I discovered this. If anyone knows how I can get the date to stay in the correct format without having to go through the process of altering it in the cell inspector everytime then I would be very grateful.

    Numbers & most apps, especially those from Apple, use the date format you have set in System Preferences > Language & Text > Region. You can then choose UK from the Region drop-down list. Mine says Custom because I've defined things further as in the second screenshot.

  • Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?

    Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?  I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

    Hi,
    I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
    1. Open your form in FormsCentral
    2. Clik on Options tab
    3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.

  • How to get the Date format inside the table

    I have a startdate column in the db in the format May 5, 2001 12:39:00 PM, when I query it from a view in this way : SELECT startdate, ... FROM ..., it returns the format in the db,
    However I have to do this SELECT
    decode(startdate, null, 'NOT START'), startdate), ... the result is 5-MAY-01,
    then I tried this to_char(startTime, 'Month DD, YYYY HH:MI: A.M.') the results become May 05, 2001 12:39:00 PM. (more space between month and day, and 05 instaed of 5)
    Does anybody know how to fix this, so I get exactly what is in the db?
    Thanks in advance

    No matter what you do if you are storing a date in a column it will get stored in the Oracle's internal 7 byte date format.
    The way you get it on retreiving it is as set by your date format. You can either change the default date format for the instance, the individual session or the individual SQL statement(in this case using to_char(date, 'format')).
    If you want to store the date in a format you want to store you'll have to store it as char or varchar2.

    When you do to_char() with 'month' oracle blank pads the month to nine characters, the same goes with day too. So to get rid of it you'll have to trim() the month. And if you want to get a single digit for date less than 10 instead of 0x you'll have to do a bit of extra jugglery using translate() or replace().
    Hope this helps

  • On my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    hello I need help,
    on my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    Why is it in someone else's name?
    Did you get this iPhone from that someone else?
    If so they should have released the iPhone form their account before giving it to you.
    All purchases made with that account will be forever tied to it and will require it to update in the case of Apps.
    If nothing has been purchased, you can go into Settings->iTunes & App Stores->Apple ID and sign out of their account there , and sign in with your own.

  • Date Format for the input Variable

    Hi all,
    I got an issue with Date format we enter in the input variable screen for the BEx Analyzer.
    We have given a format of MM/DD/YYYY. But when the users accessed the report, it is not taking the format of the variable i.e MM/DD/YYYY but it is taking the format of the users system.
    If the user's system format is DD/MM/YYYY, it is accepting the input inthe same format only.
    Why this strange behaviour?
    My questions are
    Is the input for BEx system specific? or variable specific?
    Rgrds
    Kumar

    Hi,
    I think it is user specific... you can maintain the date format for user ....
    Go to SU01 transaction or.. Go to SYSTEM -> User Profile -> Own data
    Here in defaults tab you can see the date formet for user...
    Hope this helps...
    Thanks,

    Your source video file is probably muxed.
    Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
    See: iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files.
    You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.

  • How does one change the date format for PlayMemories Home folders?

    I am using PlayMemories Home Version 2.0.00.11271 and have many folders within it which contain only photographs imported from my Sony DSC-H9.  Unfortunately, PlayMemories Home insists upon dating all folders in a month/day/year manner; and this makes little sense if one wishes to have the folders listed in logical chronological order.  How can I change the date format to year/month/day?  Changing the name of each folder, one by one, will take a very long time!  Your helpful advice in this matter will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you. System information:
    Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP Professional
    Service pack : Service Pack 3
    Memory: 1.5 GB
    Processor:         Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.86GHz
    Max. clock speed: 1.86
    Manufacturer: IBM
    Model: 1847W76
    System language setting: English (United States)
    User language setting: English (United States) 

    I too thought that the folder naming format was obviously wrong and couldn't find a way to change it. I do agree that placing photos in folders according to when they were taken is a great idea. I had been considering writing some software to do just that. After discovering that PlayMemories does it, I had it re-import all my photos. Then I wrote a small Perl script to rename all of the folders into year-month-day format. Included here is the Perl script. It only acts on a single folder - use it on the root folder where all the PlayMemories folders are. It will rename all folders currently in a month-day-year format. I used it without problems but of course there is no guarentee that it is error free. This should work with any common version of Perl. Tom # There should be one command line argument: the directory to act upon
    if ( scalar(@ARGV) == 0 ){
     print "Usage: RenameDirs <dir>\n";
     print " Where dir is the directory containing the directories to rename.\n";
     exit;
    $mydir = $ARGV[0];
    chdir $mydir or die "Couldn't chdir to $mydir: $!";
    opendir(ROOTPHOTODIR, ".") or die "Failed to open the pictures directory $mydir: $!";
    @allphotodirs = readdir ROOTPHOTODIR;
    closedir ROOTPHOTODIR;
    foreach $dir (@allphotodirs) {
     if ( -d $dir ) {
      print "$dir is a directory";
      if ( $dir =~ /^(\d{1,2})-(\d{1,2})-(\d{4})$/ ) {
       print " and has the proper format: month $1 day $2 year $3 and will be renamed to ";
       $newname = sprintf "%4u-%02u-%02u", $3, $1, $2;
       print "$newname\n";
       rename $dir, $newname or die "failed to rename $dir to $newname: $!";
      else {
       print " but is not of the proper format\n"
     elsif ( -f $dir ) {
      print "$dir is a file\n";
     else {
      print "$dir is neither a directory nor a file\n";
