Random date & time displayed at Mixx10 boot up

Has anyone else experienced random time & date displayed at boot up by a MiiX 10 Win 8.1 tablet??  Whilst not a great problem as one can always reset things before proceeding, it is a nuisance.  I always do a Shut down so, it is not something concerned with emerging from sleep!  A fault like this is so disappointing as in other respects it is a great little machine, superb screen and I like the keyboard/folder. Note that, as far as I know, I have the latest BIOS installed and Win 8.1 is as up-to-date as I can make it.   Any thoughts from fellow users??

When you shut down, you need to UNCHECK (not check like rkaufmann87 suggests) that popup window.
If items launch at start there is multiple places you can go to clear these out.
Apple -> System Preferences -> Users & Groups (or Accounts on 10.6 and earlier) and select the 'Login Items' tab at the top middle, click each item's name and press the minus icon and make sure that window is empty, not just checking/unchecking the item names.
Open Finder -> Go (top middle/left of screen) -> Hold down ALT (this will show 'Library' inbetween 'Home' and 'Computer') -> Click 'Library'
Once in your user library, double click the 'Caches' folder to take you inside. (Make sure your inside the folder by looking at the top middle of the finder window and it should say 'Caches' NOT 'Library') then hold down CMD and press A (this will highlight all items blue) then press CMD and Backspace (this will empty the folder, may ask for password which is your user account password)
Now press the back arrow situated at the top left of the finder window under the 3 circles of red/yellow/green which will take you back to the 'Library'
Scroll down and double click the 'LaunchAgents' folder, go inside, again making sure you're inside that folder (it says LaunchAgents top middle of finder), then do the same, CMD+A, CMD+Backspace (enter password if needed).
Once that's done, click GO once more, select 'Computer', then you're going to do the same for another 4 folders in here, Caches, LaunchAgents, LaunchDaemons + StartupItems (open each folder, CMD+A, CMD+Backspace - Enter password)
Once they're all done, right click (or CTRL+Click) on the trash can and select 'Empty Trash', pressing continue on any messages that come up saying the file couldn't be deleted.
Restart your mac.
Log back in, check for Software Updates (by clicking the Apple logo top left of the screen) and then once more, empty the trash.
Hope this helps!

  • Date/time display format

    Hello,
    I was wondering how I can change the display format of dates and times in Lightroom.
    It is now in US format (mm/dd/yy, AM/PM), but I prefer the European dd-mm-yyyy 24h format.
    Can't seem to find it in any of the preference or settings menus.
    Cheers,
    Marinoz

    Where are you meaning for the display?
    I get this with the Info display

  • 2nd Gen iTouch Date/Time Randomly reseting?

    Using 2.2 firmware with 32GB iTouch the system date and time get set to some random new date time from past.
    1) So far the random date-time has always been in the past.
    2) Somehow related to iTouch being connected to PC.
    3) Might be related to Sync [but not always].
    4) Might be related to Vista going into sleep mode while iTouch is connected.
    Any fixes or work-arounds?

    I have the exact same problem and I have narrowed it down to the corruption occurring after my PC goes into sleep mode. I get the same failure on my two machines. One is a desktop running Vista and the other is a Thinkpad running Windows XP. I also discovered that I did not have a problem using my laptop to charge my ITouch until I loaded it with ITunes. I deliberately put it into sleep mode before loading ITunes and it worked fine when it came out of sleep mode. I then loaded it with ITunes today to see what would happen and sure enough the clock and time got reset to a random date and time once it came out of sleep mode. I have had this problem with the 2.1 and the 2.2 level of code on the ITouch with my Vista machine and it was only today that I tried my experiment with my laptop machine. I hope that Apple can come up with a fix soon, as this problem is very annoying, since I cannot leave my Itouch connected for any length of time without the clock going bonkers.

  • Solution - Date Time Windows 8 showing year 9999

    Hi All
    I just installed Windows 8 on a brand new 2012 mac mini i5 using the latest bootcamp 5.
    After booting in to Window, I saw that the date was incorrect and set to the year 9999.
    This prevented Windows Update from working, caused issues with SSL certificates not being valid, and resulted in errors when syncing the date/time from the various time servers available in Windows.
    When I rebooted from Windows back in to Mountain Lion, the default auto time sync would result in the correct time being shown.
    If I disabled the auto time sync in Mountain Lion, then booted in to Windows 8, corrected the time in Windows, then booted back to Mountain Lion, the date/time in Mountain Lion would be broken.
    Anyway, it turns out the issue is due to a bad registry value in Windows 8.
    Windows 8 had some crazy value for "ActiveTimeBias" under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation] that was essentially adding a 1000s of years etc on to the Date/Time displayed.
    The solution for me was to reset all the *Bias values back to 0.
    "StandardBias"=dword:00000000
    "DaylightBias"=dword:00000000
    "ActiveTimeBias"=dword:00000000
    Once Windows rebooted, the time showed the correct year.  It was then just a matter of resetting the timezone location in Windows so that the StandardBias / DaylightBias values got configured correctly.  ActiveTimeBias stayed at 0.
    Anyway, hope this helps someone.

    Hello,
    I am having the exact same problem with my iMac. The year keeps changing back to 9999. I'm not sure how you "reset all the bias back to 0" as per your post. Below is a screenshot of my registry fo time zone. If I double-click each of the items cited in your post, I acn only change a portion of them. For example, for ActiveTimeBias I can change the "12c" from my entry. Standard Bias is already  and DaylightBias has a long number that matches exactly what I have in the registry of my laptop.
    Could you please provide further instruction on how to resolve this?
    Thanks for your help!

  • How can I display date+time and not the point number in excell?

    Hi everyone,
    Could anybody tell me how I can save date + time to a file, so that  I can display on a diagram(excel) : date+time in (ox) and data (oy)? :
    My program sets in (ox) the point number and not the date+time....( although  date and time are written correctly in the column...)
    Any help would be great,
    Thanks,
    regards,

    hi there,
    excel uses 01.01.1900 00:00 as the time offset, LabVIEW uses 01.01.1904 02:00, so you can't display the correct datetime in excel when you write the time as a fractional number of seconds from LabVIEW. you must format the datetime in LabVIEW to a string and write that to the column. use the "Format Date/Time String" - function and for example "%d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S%3u" as the format string (see the functions help for more examples). you also could format your data to a string using "Format Into String" - function and write the file as a 2D string array. the decimal point you have to use depends on your system and its settings, but you can specify the decimal point in the Format string like "%.;%f" (means fractional number with point as decimal point).
    best regards

  • I'm having some difficulty with Time Machine.  It appears to be deleting backups from random dates on my external hard drive.  I am not deleting them.  Are they hidden and how do I prevent this from happening?  Can I retrieve them?

    I'm having some difficulty with Time Machine.  It appears to be deleting backups from random dates on my external hard drive.  I am not deleting them.  Are they hidden and how do I prevent this from happening?  Can I retrieve them?

    ... I didn't know that Time Machine was more a last resort back up instead of main back up.
    Don't rely upon Time Machine to the exclusion of all else. I compliment Time Machine with a periodic "clone". TM is much better than nothing, but it's a safety net, not a hammock
    Here is my understanding of Time Machine's file deletion algorithm, distilled from Pondini's FAQ, Apple's KB articles, and my own observations.
    Time Machine deletes ("thins") files from the backup disk as follows:
    Hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first backup of the day
    Daily backups over 30 days old, except the first backup of the week
    Older backups get deleted when Time Machine requires space and you deleted them from the source disk.
    Therefore, assuming TM has been performing at least one backup per day, backup files will remain available:
    at least thirty days, if they existed on your Mac for at least a day
    until you run out of space, if they existed on your Mac for at least a week
    In addition to the above, Time Machine always keeps one complete copy of your source disk so that the entire volume could be restored if necessary. Any files that remain on your source volume will be present on the TM backup, no matter how old they are.
    If you are using 250 GB of space on your source disk, its Time Machine backups are likely to require at least twice that much. A good estimate of the minimum required backup volume size would be about three times the size of your source disk - 1.5 TB in your case.
    A more thorough explanation would require Pondini since he has plumbed Time Machine's mysteries far more than I have.

    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    basham,
    You didn't mention which type of DBMS you are using (i.e. Oracle, MS SQL, MySQL, etc), but in a nutshell using MS SQL here is the principle.  Your time that is recorded in the records is dependent upon a setting in your RDBMS.  For instance, the RDBMS can use the machine time (which would most likely be local time), or it can use the machine time with an offset (to accomodate GMT, for instance).  GMT is factored differently based upon your time zone (and time of year, i.e. DST or EST, etc).  I'm on the east coast so right now my offset is GMT - 5, so if my time right now is 1457, then GMT is 1957.  To get SQL to compute an offset you must take the number of hours to offset and divide by 24 (24 hours in a day) and add that to the record in the database.  For instance, to get GMT right now I would use:
    select cast(getdate()5/24. as char(12))rtrim(convert(char(12),getdate()5/24.,8))' GMT'
    Hope this helps.  If you're on Oracle, then the mathematical principles remain the same, just the formatting will be different.

  • How to display the Date Time using the System Time zone

    Friends,
    Can anyone help me with below scenario..
    I have to display Date Time on a jsff page, This value associated to one of Transient View object populated from the database.. Is there any way I can handle on the screen to display the same date /time bassed on the system time zone ?
    I know one way how we can handle it.. while populating to View object we can set the time based on the system time zone.. but it would be easy and simple if there is any approach I can use on UI layer itself..
    thanks

    I don't understand why this display doesn't pay attention to the date/time format settings that are set in the language and text prefs.
    Those settings are used for date OR time, and provide for different displays depending on the space available. The menu bar does not have a fixed space available, and wants both date and time.
    In Leopard, it used the medium time format. To get the date and time, you could modify that format to include the date, but that could cause problems with software that happened to use the medium time format and expectede just the time. Also, you might want to change the medium time format without changing the menu bar display. For these reasons, Snow Leopard's menu bar clock uses its own formatting for data and time display.

  • How to display document last modfied date time in core result web part?

    Hi,
    We have a requirment in the sharepoint application where we need to display last modified date&time of document in core result web part.
    To support this we have specify the property <Column Name="Write"/> in custom XSL.
    But it displays only the modified date.Is there is way to display modified date and time as well?
    D.Ganesh

    If you want to modify the
    XML can do i tin the
    template "DisplayTemplate":
    An example:
    Replace
    <xsl:value-of select="write" />
    by
    <xsl:value-of select="ddwrt:FormatDate($write, 1033, 2)"/>
    But I think the managed property"Write"
    is returned only as
    Date without
    Time. By
    this time will
    always 00:00.
    To see the resulting XML
    can replace
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
    <xsl:template match="/">
    <xmp><xsl:copy-of select="*"/></xmp>
    </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>
    Where you see the format
    of "write"

  • Error in displaying date time value in Thai Windows OS browser.

    Hi,
    I have a problem displaying date time in the browser which is installed with Thai Windows OS. The time portion (the subset of datetime) does seemed to show correctly. Initially i am suspecting the virtual machine problem but i tried on bith java and microsoft vm, the result seemed the same. I tried to look in the source of the page and the character is just the same as the incorrect character displayed in the browser. The html source is -->
    <tr class="TableData">
         <td width="76">14/01/04 12:17:06 H-@5H"</td>
    the time is displaying incorrectly. I am not sure its due to any setting in the BEA weblogic server. FYI i am now using WLS6.1(SP2) version. Hope and appreaciate a prompt reply. Thanks a zillion in advance.

  • How to generate n random dates between 2 time periods

    Hi,
    I'm trying to write a method that generates n random dates between 2
    time periods. For example, lets say I want to generate n random dates
    between Jan 1 2003 and Jan 15 2003. I'm not sure how to go about
    doing the random date generation. Can someone provide some direction
    on how to do this?
    The method signature should look like this.
    public String[] generateRandomDates(String date1,String date2,int n){
    // date1 and date2 come in the format of mmddyyyyhh24miss.
    // n is the number of random dates to generate.
    return dateArray;
    Thanks.
    Peter

    first take a look at the API concerning a source of randomness (Random might be a good guess), then take a look at stuff concerning dates (Date might be cool, maybe you will find some links from there).
