NetStorage file/folder dates all wrong

Hey guys/gals,
Have an OES2.3-LX-64bit server fully patched. Fresh install yesterday. Just noticed that our file/folder dates are all messed up. Shows up like this: 4/25/60093. All the dates have good day and month. It's the year that is messed up. All the years show 60094, 60094, 60095 and so on. Just wanted to piggy back on the recent postings on wrong file dates in NetStorage, Bug# 698388. Basically wanted to get an idea if our problem with the dates comes under this bug.
TIA
-Hans

I opened an SR with Novell and provided them the bug# and the Tech Support person said they would not give me a credit (see text of email below):
"Thank you for contacting Novell Technical Service.
Regarding the wrong date displayed in Netstorage, you are correct, this is related to a bug which have been fixed and the new patch will be in the online update of september.
Novell forums is open to everybody and suggestions are not validate by Novell. The fact the SR is not charge because it is a bug is a comment from somebody which doesn't belong to our organization and therefore doesn't know the entire process of our company."

  • Zoom H2n "file created" dates are WRONG

    Zoom H2n (audio files) "file created" dates are 31 December 1969 @1900 unless I DL them to Win7 box and import them.  The time and date is set correctly in the H2n.  The time and date are correct for creation in Win7. It makes the EVENTS fall into December 1969 category in FCP X and I don't seem to be able to change them. Nothing about this is mentioned on the Zoom website.

    I know this is a rather old post but this bug is still unfixed so maybe it may help someone.
    This is actually a Zoom H2n bug, not a Final Cut one. The problem is that the Zoom sets the file creation dates to 1 january 1970 00:00. However it sets the right file modification date. A quick and dirty workaround I found for this is to use the terminal to fix it:
    find /Volumes/H2N_SD -name "*.WAV" -exec fix_zoom_dates.sh "{}" \;
    With fix_zoom_dates.sh being a shell script somewhere in your $PATH, containing the following:
    #!/bin/bash
    SetFile -d "$(GetFileInfo -m $1)" $1
    What it does is scanning the whole H2n sd card and setting the file creation date to the file modification date, for every WAV file present. You have to do that every time you want to import something from the Zoom, before opening Final Cut.
    Hope this can be helpful.

  • Time Machine v.1 lost file folder names all the way back to "the beginning of time"

    I was experiencing some increasingly erratic system problems with my White 2006 iMac running OS 10.5.8. My guess is that these problems were due to power outages cutting power to the iMac while it was in use.
    - I tried Disk Utility from the Install Disk and it cleaned the HD but when I ran Verify Disk from Disk Utility off the HD it reported errors and I continued having problems.
    --  I decided to wipe the HD and reinstall everything.
    --- The first thing I did was backup with Time Machine v.1 and then disconnect the backup drive.
    ---  After reloading the OS and upgrades I ran Verify Disk from Disk Utility off the HD and it reported no errors.
    ----   Skipping all the headache a reinstall entailed ... I reloaded my files from the external backup drive Time Machine backups by grabbing the folders and pulling them to the cleaned HD.
    -----     I found large portions of files names missing. They look to be exclusively file names starting with a number that I use to order files ( 01. , 02. , 03. ... etc) as opposed to alphabetical listing.
    -----     These files - so far - are all located on a single folder branch. Meaning: as I follow the folder tree down I get to a list of project folders and some or all are missing everything but the starting number. I wrote this off as something to do with the hard drive operation problem but ...
    ------      ... all the same backup folders in Time Machine on my Seagate GoFlex have also lost their names all the way back for 2 years, when I started using Time Machine and the GoFlex.
    ------      I know for a for a fact the folder names were intact before I cleaned the iMac HD since I regularly use those files.

    They aren't what they appear to be on the TM, most are aliases to aliases to aliases when files are changed, I think only TM understands how/where the files are actually stored.
    Later versions of the OS with Restore Partitions can Restore also
    Do run DU on the TM drive... it certainly can't hurt at this point.
    I recommend cloning your drives instead of TM, not only can you copy files/folders over if needed, you can actually boot from your backup & continue working, or even clone back to the Internal...
    Get carbon copy cloner to make an exact copy of your old HD to the New one...

  • File creation dates have wrong format

    My wife's older iMac, running 10.2.8, has recently developed a problem with file dates (though I don't know when this actually began). Perhaps as many as half of the files, at any directory level, have time stamps in this format:
    x:yyy:22, where x appears to be an hour indicator, yyy I don't know, and 22 terminates every time stamp of this form. Other files have normal time stamps.
    What can we do to get her back to normal?
    TIA,
    Scott

    Hi, are you seeing any other oddities? If so, it may be your system battery. If not, I'd check the Date and Time settings in the System Preferences. If none of those help, then it may be a squirrley UNIX problem.

  • Iphoto dates all wrong

    I have iphoto version 5.04 and digital cameras Nikon D2H and Olympus C-50 Zoom. I have made sure both of these cameras have the correct date on them. However, whenever I import pictures, the date for my library, any folder I make and every single picture is 19/08/05. I don't seem able to change that date on anything. I have gone to the little calendar icon on the bottom left of the screen and if I click on a particular month and day, it will show pictures that were taken at that time. So somewhere it does recall the correct information about when the picture was taken, but I can't get that information to appear in the left bottom corner information box or when I click on the Get Info button. I have been told before that you can just change the date in that bottom corner box, but whenever I try the machine makes a noise at me and just returns to the original date of 19/08/05. It is really getting annoying- please can anybody suggest a fix for this problem. And please, if the fix is complicated, spell it out to me because I'm not particularly computer literate

  • Scripting: browse for data files in a folder and all subfolders below

    Hello,
    i'm looking for a command to search for data files (*.dat) in a folder and all subfolders below.
    I checked out command DirListGet. This command only search in the declared folder and not in the subfolders below.
    Anyone an idea?
    I don't want to use a loop-structure for finding subfolders and browse for the data files.
    Mr. Buddy

    dim result : result = DirListGet("C:\tmp", "*.dat", "filename", "FullFilenamesRecursive")
    dim fl : for each fl in result
    MsgBox fl
    Next
    Works fine for me and even recursive.
    Alternatively but with mucg more effort and the same result.
    Option Explicit 'Forces the explicit declaration of all the variables in a script.
    dim folderPath : folderPath = "C:\tmp"
    dim files : files = GetFileListRecursive(folderPath)
    dim fl : for each fl in files
    MsgBox fl
    Next
    Function GetFileListRecursive(folderPath)
    dim fso : Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

  • I deleted a specific file folder from my Seagate backup drive, via Time Machine. Instead of only deleting that file, it deleted ALL my files for that date.

    1. Why? I was quite obviously selecting one file folder ONLY.
    2. Is there any way to retrieve the lost items?
    3. How do I avoid this happening in the future?

    Never had any issues while deleting specific files/folders from a time machine backup.
    However, regarding the original post, what do you mean by "file folder"? Did you select a FILE for deletion, or a FOLDER? These two terms tend to be quite different, you know.
    If you selected a FOLDER, then ALL FILES inside the folder have been deleted. If you selected a single FILE, then only that file should have been deleted. "Delete all backups of..." is a completely different story.

  • Issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in background

    Hi All,
    I am facing one issue in moving files from data fodler to processed folder in case of background execution.
    When i am executing the file in the foreground, i can move the file from Data folder to processed folder. I am using SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE FM to move the file from data folder to processed folder.  I can see the file in processed folder once the program is executed.
    But in case of executing the same program in background, it is giving me the error "Failed to move the file to processed folder" in the spool of SM37 and i can see the file still laying in data folder.
    I tried to check other programs which acesses the same folder as the above program, whether they are able to move. They are able to move the file to processed fodler successfully both in foreground and background mode.
    Please help me in resolving this issue.
    Thanks,

    Hi Sanu,
                    Please use teh following code to move the file from source to target folder.
    This is a code showing how to create and use COPY command of UNIX in ABAP
    PARAMETERS:
    Input file path
    p_input TYPE localfile,
    Processed file path
    p_proc TYPE localfile.
    Declare the Types to file data
    TYPES: BEGIN OF L_X_OUTPUT,
    sys(200), " Please note, there are asterisk before and after sys (i.e.sys)
    END OF L_X_OUTPUT.
    * Internal table to store file data
    DATA l_i_output TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF l_x_output WITH HEADER LINE.
    * Variable for the UNIX command
    DATA: l_v_unix_comm(255) TYPE c.
    Copy command of UNIX
    CONCATENATE 'mv' p_input p_proc

    For example the Copy command is stored as below
    cp u2018/data/interfaces/input/input_fileu2019 u2018/data/interfaces/processed/processed_fileu2019
    Examples of UNIX Command *u2022 mv filename1 filename2 --- moves a file (i.e. gives it a different name, or moves it into a *different directory (see below) *u2022 cp filename1 filename2 --- copies a file
    Execute the UNIX Copy command.
    This command will copy the file from input file path to the processed file path
    CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD l_v_unix_comm

  • Disk Utility 'Disk Image from Folder' looses file create date?

    Hi,
    I have been working on creating backups that maintain the files' create dates. I have found the following anomoly using Disk Utility.
    If I create a Disk Image From Folder, the create dates of all files are changed to be the same as the last modify dates. Not what I want.
    If I creat a Blank Disk Image, and then using Finder to copy the files to the Disk Image, the create dates remain unchanged.
    I can then burn the backup CD's with the Disk Image and the files' create dates are maintained. So, future restore from the backup CD will contain the original files' create dates.
    Does anyone know if Disk Utility's Create Disk Image from Folder is supposed to loose the files' create dates? What other file attributes are being lost? Mac OS X maintains all of these attributes, and create dates via Finder copies, I would expect the Disk Utility Create Disk Image from Folder to do the same.

    To follow up on this post, I know at least part of the answer. The difference between the two becomes clearer if you read the documentation (man pages) for hdiutil and asr. Image 1 will be created in file mode, whereas image 2 will be in block mode, ie bypassing the file system. Image 1 will consist of a series of files, whereas image 2 will contain a series of blocks, mirroring the original layout of the hard disk.
    Technically the latter should be faster to restore (in block mode), although Apple recommend the first procedure (see man page for hdiutil). I haven't seen any evidence that images created in block mode can be mounted or restored, although you might be able to burn such images to a optical disks if applicable.
    As I've pointed out in another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1508199&tstart=0) I believe that this functionality should not be offered in disk utility, and I consider it a serious bug.

  • This is just to report a problem with Apple updates. I updated recently and the computer brought up my 2012 desktop with all my 2014 files and data including stickies missing! Now I hesitate to do another Apple update. What would you do?

    If all your files are missing
    You may have logged in as a different user, such as Guest. Open the Users & Groups pane in System Preferences. Your name should be at the top of the user list, under Current User. See also this support article.   
    If files are missing from one folder
    Change the Finder view mode; for example, from icon view to list view, or vice versa.
    If files are present, but seem outdated
    You may have started up from a different volume (disk.) Open the Startup Disk preference pane and check the selection.

  • How to make Finder NOT to show files from a specific folder in "All My Files"?

    Hello!
    Can someone please advice how to make finder NOT to show files from a specific folder in "All My Files"? See the attach - I recently installed Civilization 5 from Steam and now I have a lot of unneeded files (*.log and *.ini) shown in  All My Files colder in Finder.
    I don't want to see them. Any advise?

    Using "All my Files" was very handy before all this rubbish popped up. =(

  • What is the problem when I turn on my macbook and all I get is a picture of a file folder with a question mark in it?

    First my Macbook is almost 5 yrs old and is probably on it's last leg.  The other day it froze and was making some pretty loud clicking noises.  I turned it off by holding down the power button and tried starting it up again.  At that point the screen was just blue and the noise came back on.  Then a file folder appeared in the middle of the screen with a question mark in it.  Does this mean the hard drive crashed or something?  We blew a hard drive once before (though it didn't happen like this) but I just wanted to check before I go to the store.  If it's something that is bad then I may just be sending this one to the grave and replace it with an iPad.  Any insight into this problem would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device.  But I have a Conceptronic router.  Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

    I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device.  But I have a Conceptronic router.
    1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
    2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
    3. Can I create a network and how?
    4.  What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
    I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical.  Any help / advice will be much appreciated.

    The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router.  I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
    You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

  • HT2188 I'm presuming my old iPod id dead meat, but after 24 charging a get the Apple Logo followed by an image that looks like a file folder with an exclamation point. Is there anyway we can resurrect all trhe music on it & transfer into a new iPod?

    You can try putting it into Disk Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    If that works, you can see if the computer will recognize it when connected, either in iTunes or by the system.
    NOTE:  You can also try putting it into Disk Mode WHILE it is already connected to the computer.
    If the iPod is recognized, you may be able to use one of the third-party methods or utilities to transfer song files from iPod to computer.  You can do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer" to get some links (add "mac" to the search if your computer is a Mac).
    Once the song files are on your computer, add them to that computer's iTunes library, then sync it to the new iPod.
