PDF saving with the wrong date

When I save a file, it saves with the wrong date: it is off by 5 years and 1 day and the time is completely wrong. This has been happening for months and has not been fixed by installing newer versions of Adobe Reader (I currently have version 10.1.7). The date/time on my computer is fine and Microsoft Word documents save with the right date & time...

I'm actually having a similar problem with the computers that are used at my work, though not with a 5 year difference; Our pdfs get saved as if it were 2 days previous. We use mostly AutoCAD and print to PDF. The pdf gets saved to a shared drive, but everything else that we save on that drive (word documents, excel spreadsheets, AutoCAD files, etc.) have the correct date. I checked to see if maybe it had something to do with the time stamp server settings, but we don't have a server set up. The time on all of our computers is also set to the current date and time. We do sometimes save pdfs from outlook, from clients, but have the problem regardless of if we were using outlook or not. It's not a terribly huge deal, but sometimes we check to see when pdfs were updated versus their corresponding drawings and it gets confusing when the date is off. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Installing the CS Extension panel with the wrong date set on computer - won't install

Hi!
I (with the help of my customers) noticed an interesting behavior of the Extension Manager - when the date is wrong on the computer, the panel won't install giving all sorts of errors, but the correct one. It's cool, that it's happening, because of security - I can understand that. But it's not so cool, that the error that is being displayed is not about wrong time set. The users who install the panel receive "an invalid extension", or "wrong publusher" message and they think that the panel they downloaded is invalid, not the time on their own computers. Is it possible to fix this behavior? It's a serious usability issue, I think, that prevents users from using the CS Extension panels.
Thank you

Hi, ddmiles1 -
Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
When I try to install from the Instalation disc it begins with the "Classic is starting" window.
That, and the other messages, indicate you are trying to run the installer on the OS 9.2.1 Install CD while the machine is booted to OSX on the hard drive.
That won't work. What is happening is that when you run the installer on the CD, since it is an OS 9-only program OSX tries to start up Classic, using the only available OS 9 System Folder, the one on the CD. However, before that System Folder could be used as Classic it must be updated by OSX - OSX must add a few files to it so that it can be used as Classic. This can't happen, of course, since the CD can not be written to.
The installer on all stand-alone OS 9 Install CDs will run only when the machine is booted to OS 9. You will first need to boot the machine to the CD, then run the installer. To do that, with the CD in the drive, restart; then immediately press the C key, keep it held down until you get the OS 9 Welcome screen.
It may be that your machine will not be able to boot to that CD. Conditions that could cause that are -
• the CD is not a retail OS 9.2.1 Install CD (those have a white label with a large gold 9 on them). If the CD is a model-specific one, and is for a model other than your specific iBook model, it willprobably not be able to be used.
• your iBook G3 is too new a model to be able to use OS 9.2.1. Many iBook G3 models originally came with OS 9.2.2 - and that then is the minimum OS 9 version that they can use; specifically, those machines require the model-specific version of OS 9.2.2 that came with them. This Apple KBase article can help you determine the Apple designation for your model -

Why do I get the wrong date on my photos and emails?

All my photos in iphoto and emails are coming up with the wrong date. Why is this and how can I correct it?
I have made sure that the computer's date and time are ok.

You may want to re-post in the iPhoto forum if it only happens in iPhoto.

SimpleDateFormat gives the wrong date

Hi
I'm retreiving a java.sql.Date, and using a SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy") to format it. For some reason, some of my users (located in other countries) end up with the wrong dates (it's an applet)and others don't. Any similar experiences/thoughts?

Thanks for the info....I'm using 1.3, so that's unlikely to be it.
I narrowed it down to a timezone problem difference problem between my applet and the server. Does anyone know how I can get an applet to behave like it's in a different timezone. Is there a single place I can set it (like maybe a System.setTimezone or something?). I don't want to go around messing with my Locales in every single Date or Calendar object I use. I just need my applets to think they're running in the same timezone as the server. Any similar experiences/quick fixes?

My goal: "convert into pdf" -- the file is instantly saved with the same name as pdf. feasible?

Good evening dear experts,
i use Adobe Acrobat 9 pro extend to convert word, ppt, jepgs etc. into pdfs.
No if i
1) convert a ppt into a pdf: it asks --> "save as" --> converts --> opens the file
2) convert a jpeg into a pdf: it instantly --> opens the file as pdf --> i need to save it manual under "save as"
In both cases i want to
my goal: "convert into pdf" --> the file is instantly saved with the same name as pdf
WITHOUT asking me "save as" + "opening of the file".
Is the possible, and if yes, HOW ?
A fast answer is very very much appreciated, for i have to convert hundreds of files tonight in order to get it into 1 pdf
Thx and greetings from Germany,
Julia

We are nearly there!
A] - righclick "convert-to-method": @Bill: thx again, your approach worked for ppt, doc-files etc.
2 problems:
1) exception: for jpegs/bmps it doesn't work (the file is still opened after conversion, strange).
2) the output-folder. it only accepts the standard "output-folder documents/*.pdf" (which is a step further but not my end-goal). If i choose another output-folder via "browse", this setting is NOT SAVED (even after clicking on "accept" + "ok").
my goal: the the file should be automatically saved in THE SAME folder the original file is in (seems that can't be achieved and the standard folder is the only thing where to convert in?).
Personal background for understanding: i have many folders with several ppts in it. Once i send it out to a customer, i always have to convert it into a pdf. thats why i want to save time (i know that i can convert it directly + send per mail, but i want an up-to-date copy of the pdf in the folder as well).
B] - "the automated solution"- @Sandeep:
i just watched your link http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-tips-and-tricks/automating-tasks-in-acrobat/
about batch processing and i think its really helpful if i want to convert ALL of the files in one folder.
1 question regarding this: are the subfolders also affected?
As i understood from the video, i choose 1 "watched folder" and a "destination folder" (can be the same). E.g i have 1 big folder "designs" with many subfolders. I create a batch converting ppts to pdf to "the same folder" Once i run my batch, it converts ppts in the chosen folder "designs" + all subfolders into the same folder, right?
If this is the case, i get too many pdfs, for i only need the latest ppt-version to be converted (copies of old ppts are also in the files) ;(.
Do you have an idea how can i solve this?
Now we are very near to the end-solution of my goal:
i need this option "to the same folder" in my general settings when i convert a file via right-click. ATM it only works with the standard-folder documents/*.pdf
In A], my files are now instantly saved with the same name in 1 specific folder. I would be completely happy, if this folder would be alwys the same as the one with the original file (and not 1 specific folder)
2nd problem with a]: it does not apply to picture files (bmp, jpegs..)
So if we could solve this, i would be a completely happy girl
Guys, you are great, thx again for the whole struggle with my concerns!!

Can I populate a text field in one PDF with the modification date of a different file ?

Rather convoluted problem here but I'm trying to place a text field on a PDF document that serves as the main menu page for a library of interlinked PDF documents
The complete library contains over 7,000 files and additions are added and documents changed almost daily.
We currently use batch files to open the main menu from it's shortcut and this runs a check on a sync log file (.txt) to ascertain when the last time the user synchronised with the server to get the latest copy of the files.
Between a certain time range they are told how long it has been since they sync'ed and are offered the option to sync before opening, after a prescribed timeframe they cannot enter without synchronising. We use Allways Sync to conduct the file synchronisation with our mother files on our server.
What I'd like to do is take advantage of Allways Syncs automatic synchronisation options to synchronise on log on and at prescribed idle periods there after.
This works fine but I'd like the text field on the main menu PDF to say when the last synchronisation took place - easy if the main menu is the last file modified .. just use info.modDate.
However, the main menu is rarely modified therefore I wish to import the text to populate the text field from a different file.. either by interrogating the other files modifictaion data (though I doubt Acrobat can do this) or by simply importing some text stored in another file (a .txt file?) which has previously been created by batch file commands.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I'm using Acrobat 8.3.1. Professional on Windows XP (SP3).

Thank you for all your help above.
Just to confirm your advice, am I right with the following conclusions? :
1. The script (function) to fill the text field with the modification date of a different PDF file needs to be stored in a folder level .js file.
2. The document containing the text field needs to call the .js function either within the document script or within the custom script property of the text field itself.
Further to that can you just advise on the syntax for accessing the modification date of the other document.
Do I need to assign a variable to the address of the file to be used, and then use this variable in the text form filling script (as below) or can I use a direct file reference at the .modDate command.
var LastSync = "C:\sync\bin\lastsync.pdf";
var strMsg = util.printd("h:MM tt",LastSync.modDate) + " on ";
strMsg += util.printd("dddd, d mmmm, yyyy",LastSync.modDate);
this.getField("LastSyncDate").value = strMsg;
If the syntax is totally different to the above I would be very grateful for some guidance in the right direction.
I much appreciate your time to help me ... I'm almost there.
Kind Regards,
Nifty

Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

My Ipod is stuck on a white screen with the wrong time and a lock. computer doesn't recognized my Ipod..also gets hot when connected to charge..any ideas on how to fix this? Thank You

Hi
My Ipod nana...has frozen up and working. It shows a white screen with the wrong time and a lock symbol. When I connected it to my computer, it didn't show up. Back of Ipod gets really warm..Any ideas on how to fix it? Than You

If it happens again and the reset (home + power buttons) doesn't work, just let the battery drain; you'll know when the screen shuts off. Charge it back up and it should be fine. Frankly, I'm surprised this worked for you. Usually I hear people with this problem say that holding both buttons doesn't work, and they have to do the battery drain.
If the issue is incurable next time, you have a one-year warranty from the date of purchase.

hi,
Thanks for reply....Another Example
CREATE TABLE USER_MAS (USER_ID VARCHAR2 (20 Byte),MAIL_ID VARCHAR2 (255 Byte));
set serveroutput on
declare
atable varchar2(64) := 'USER_MAS';
acolumn varchar2(64) := 'MAIL_ID';
avalue varchar2(64) := 'NEWYORK' ;
dyn_sql clob;
begin
dyn_sql := 'update '||atable||' set '||acolumn||' = '''||avalue|| '''' ;
dbms_output.put_line(dyn_sql);
execute immediate dyn_sql;
end;
commit ;
Error at line 2
ORA-06550: line 9, column 23:
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
ORA-06550: line 9, column 5:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
When i Changed the Data type to varchar2(64)
update USER_MAS set MAIL_ID = 'NEWYORK'
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Commit complete.
I like to Know the Reason Why the Procedure is Not Created in Oracle 10g XE DB
Note :the Same Script i used in 11g DB the Procedure is Created Successfully....
Why you need use CLOB or VARCHAR2 in your temp_num variable as you sending parameters as number?
In the Procedure we are create some run time queries while executing the procedure. There are around 10 run time queries created.
The size of each query is more than 4000 characters . We then add all the queries using union all after each query to the clob variable as the normal varchar will not support.
Please Advice

ALV refresh with the Old Data

Hi All,
I have a question with OO ALV. I have an Editable ALV output which contains around 10 fields. In the output the User can Edit/Insert/Delete the Records, and on the application tool bar I have a button (CHANGE)by which the user can swtich between the change and display mode of ALV.
Once the ALV list is displayed, when the user click on change the output is open for Editing. Lets say the user deletes the record, and again clicks on the change(which should take to display) by giving the message "Changes made will be lost" and the old data should get displayed.
The logic i followed is,
1. displayed the ALV.
CALL METHOD gr_grid->set_table_for_first_display
    EXPORTING
      it_toolbar_excluding = gt_exclude
      is_layout            = gs_layout
    CHANGING
      it_fieldcatalog      = pt_fieldcat
      it_outtab            = pt_outtab[].
2. when I click on the change button, the ALV is set for Edit using
        CALL METHOD gr_grid->set_ready_for_input
          EXPORTING
            i_ready_for_input = 1.
lets say, now the record in the output is deleted, and I clicked on Change again, which should take me to display with the old data.
can you help me in displaying the old data.

It works good for me.
I copied the program BCALV_EDIT_01 to Z program and add the required logic. Backup of the table after the ALV display
    gt_backup = gt_outtab.
Refreshing the ALV table display in the perform SWITCH_EDIT_MODE
*§3.Use IS_READY_FOR_INPUT to fetch current substate of editable cells.
IF g_grid->is_ready_for_input( ) EQ 0.
*§4.Use SET_READY_FOR_INPUT to switch between the substates.
    CALL METHOD g_grid->set_ready_for_input
                     EXPORTING i_ready_for_input = 1.
ELSE.
*------ ADD Begin
    message I398(00) with 'Data not saved.!'.
    gt_outtab = gt_backup.
    g_grid->refresh_table_display( ).
*------- ADD end
    CALL METHOD g_grid->set_ready_for_input
                     EXPORTING i_ready_for_input = 0.
ENDIF.
