Show time running on a picture

I it possible to show an integer value in a picture. I have created a program that creates, shows, and records a .avi file for x amount of time. Is it possible to display x on the picture as the picture runs?

It is (or, better, "used to be") possible to write an arbitrary text string to each frame of an AVI file (at the time you write the file). We've used this functionality to display auxilliary information with each frame. However, when I opened LabVIEW 2012 to actually look at IMAQ AVI Write and "be sure I knew what I was talking about", I discovered that IMAQ AVI Write (with its data input connector) was missing, having been replaced with IMAQ AVI2 Write. Turns out that NI Update had installed the NI 2012 SP1 Vision updates, which replaced all of the IMAQ AVI functions with IMAQ AVI2 functions. A "Known Issue" with AVI2 is that "it does not support writing extra data to AVIs".
Of course, there is another way. You could make an image of the information you want to display, and then do some "image processing" to overlay your information on the underlying AVI. This has the advantage that it allows you to stick the information on after the AVI has been created, make it any size/shape/color you want, and it doesn't even need to be text (it could be another "image").
Both these solutions have the virtue that the information is embedded in the AVI, so you don't need LabVIEW in order to see it -- just play the movie. Of course, if you're viewing it in LabVIEW, just pop an indicator up and show the information (but you knew that ...).

System is showing time out when run in background

Dear all,
We have two systems: One R/3 and EBP. We have made one report where the remote function module will be called from R/3 to EBP. There are 4 lakhs data in SAP. We are sending 10000 data as package in internal table and getting the corresponding output. But the system is showing time out when the report has run in background. Can you please suggest how the process can be improved so that the timeout can be avoided.
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Hi,
Try to fetch records in smaller chunks and process them. For example, if you are trying to fetch records for one year, instead of single query, try to fetch in 12 sets for each month. Fetch first month and process the records and put them in the output internal table. Then go for next month and so on. Anyway your program is running in background. There will not be any user complaint also. The solution might sound bit funny. But it works.

Hema

I'm trying to watch a movie and it shows that running but I have no picture

I can see the bar at the top of the screen running but the picture is black. Itunes is set as my default media player. I can't figure out whats wrong? Can anyone help me? I'm trying to view on a Dell P.C., Thanks!

Quit iTunes (from the menu). Do you have that movie on the Mac? Of yes, option-click choose "open with" and open with Quicktime, when it does not play, download VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html) , install it and do the "open with" with VLC. If it does not play, the movie is corrupted.

Can't show Time Machine in menu bar

In the system preferences > Time Machine settings, when I try to enable "Show Time Machine in menu bar", the button automatically gets deselected. Otherwise Time Machine works fine, but I can't get it to show in the menu bar because of this. Any idea why this might happen? Is there a way to enable it in Terminal?

Almost all the items put at the top of the screen by selecting 'show' this or that are held in the the preference file I mentioned.
You can try this:
1) Take a screenshot to remember what you had (shift + command + 3)
2) Quit all your applications and save your work.
3) Just to make sure every is ok go to Applications > Utilities >Disk Utility, launch the application, click the picture of your hard drive, click repair permissions. When done quit.
4) In Keychain Access set the preferences to NOT show the keychain in the menu.
5) In the finder go to Macintosh HD > Users > <yourusername> > Library > Preferences >
scoll down to the file called com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and drag it to the desktop. Restart your machine.
6) Go into keychain access and check the box
You may need to also run keychain first aid.
Good Luck,

I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

How to find out what time I took a picture

A big monster truck's bumper went up onto my car's hood at the grocery store the other week and I snapped a picture of it. Now the lady is claiming that I decided to park my car underneath hers and that my car was not there when she parked. I have my receipt showing I what time I made my purchases but I need additional proof with what time I took the picture.
Does somebody know how to look up what time a picture was taken?

I would also recommend leaving the shot on the iphone untouched (downloaded to a PC is ok). There is EXIF information encoded inside the image that records the iphone's date/time (this is in addition to the file system information that the other poster I beleive is referring to). It is also changeable, though one needs more expertise to do so. The reason I recommend leaving it there is some techniques of getting shots off of cameras (i.e. phones) may remove that info or alter it.
But how does the date/time matter -- clearly the event had occurred, how will a shot after it occurred indicate which came first, your care or her's?

AirDrop showing the wrong name and picture with iOS 7

AirDrop is showing the wrong name and picture on my wife's phone....It is showing my name and picture. She has an iPhone 5 and I just updated her to iOS7 about an hour ago, same time as I did mine. Is it because we are connected with the same Apple ID and if so, how do I fix it? She is annoyed by it and not seeing where I can change it in the settings is beginning to annoy me. Help!

I don't think that's the issue. I'm having the same problem. My wife, my son, and I all use the same Apple ID, but we have different email addresses and phone numbers for facetime and imessage (we've never had an issue with imessage or facetime). Today, I updated my phone and ipad to ios 7 and tried to experiment with airdrop. On both devices it showed my son's name. Then my son updated his ipad and we tested airdrop again. His ipad shows up on my phone and ipad with his name as well. The email address that I use for Apple ID is not associated with him on any device. His name is not listed on our Apple ID account. One of them shows his photo that he uses for his facebook profile, but the other's just have a gray circle with his first initial. I'm hoping it's just a bug that will get fixed soon, but if anyone knows a fix, please share.

While ATT was the one who made the news this time, it has been long reported that most of the major providers (google, Facebook, AOL, etc.) have been monitoring data trafic on their networks, and providing back door access to government agencies for years. (If one recalls, kinda the point Edward Snoden made with his secret government messages release.) At least, they seem to be backing off, as the public becomes more aware or their privacy invasions.

Imported iPhoto library -- Aperture set time stamp for each picture 5 hours

Very annoying and bizarre -- I imported thousands of pictures, from 3 or 4 different cameras, and all of them have the time stamp 5 hours too early. I'm not worried about time zones, etc. -- even where the camera, computer and file resides in Chicago, and are set to Chicago time, a photo that was taken at 3 PM CST, and says so in iPhoto, says that it was taken at 10 AM CST in Aperture. Is there any easy way to fix this for all of the pictures?

Hi Sharon,
There is a way to make a change to the date of all pictures. Select all the pictures that need adjustment, then go to the "Metadata | Adjust Date and Time" function. Aperture will show the time of the first picture, and you can set that time to something else. Aperture determines the delta from current to new timestamp, and applies that same delta to all of the other pictures.
You are also probably wondering how that happened in the first place. I don't know for sure, but try to import some more pictures, and in the upper right "Import Settings", select "Time Zone" See if the time zones match CST.

I have installed FF 8, the problem is whenever i try to launch it, it never launches (directly or indirectly), but when i check in the task manager it shows FF running. I have installed it on windows XP professional.

I have installed FF 8, the problem is whenever i try to launch, it never launches (directly or indirectly), but when i check in the task manager it shows FF running. I have installed it on windows XP professional. Never gave an error, no messages, etc. I have disabled all the addons.

The "System Tray" is located at the very bottom right of your screen and is a list of most/all running applications that will show in this list.
For your SysFader issue, this "may" be the problem:
1 Find the "My Computer" desktop icon and right-click it. A pull-down menu will appear. Select "Properties."
2 Click on the "Advanced" tab. This will load a new page of options.
3 Select the "Visual Effects" tab at the top of the window and deselect "Animate Windows when minimizing and maximizing," "Fade or slide menus into view," "Fade or slide Tool Tips into view" and "Fade out Menu items after checking."
4 Click "OK." This will remove most if not all of the Sysfader effects, at the same time correcting related errors that used to come up during opening a new file or program.

ICal 'Show time in month view' Month view missing text!

Hi I hope you can help me!
Since syncing to .mac last week my calendar has developed a problem which is happening on both of my Macs.
Some of my entries and particular words are not displaying properly when I enable 'Show time in month view'. Words at the end of the entries are missing! (they are fine with the times disabled). Can someone please offer an insight into this as I just bought my Mac and use it for my business.
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem. I want to print the month view like it was in my older version of Ical and it won't do it. I want to print what I see.

Does calendar month view show times

I'm sure I'm not going crazy but I could have sworn that, until late last night, my iPad 2's calendar when in month view showed event times. Similar to what you see when you check the "show times in month view" box when in iCal. I am pretty sure that that function was on my iPad 2 prior to my downloading iTunes 10.3.1 beta because I keep my iPad near the kitchen phone so that we can 'check the calendar.' Now it is not there. The folks at MME support didn't have an iPad to check and they suggested that I go to a local Apple store and see if the ones in the store had this function. I did and they did not.
I spoke with a genius at the Apple Store and he couldn't verify whether that was ever a function of iOS on the iPad. I did tell him that my iPad had been having some strange things happen on the display when I activated the calendar on the iPad. Events would appear, disappear, then reappear sort of in an wave. I am not sure as to the timing of this as to whether it was pre iTunes 10.3.1 beta or after I installed it.
HELP! Was I just seeing things? Or was it there and now gone?

Thanks for the wild and crazy ideas.
I did remove any events that span midnight and it did not help.
I looked at the DbFixit program. Since it corrects problems in the Palm and not in Palm Desktop I believe it is not relevant. The reason I belive the palm device is not involved is because of the following test:
I removed all previous Palm Desktop versions
I removed all registery entries for both Palm, PalmOne, and the USB (as specified by a chat session with Palm)
I removed all data directories including \Program Files\PalmOne, \Program Files\Palm, and \Palm
I removed all instances of data in the Documents directory
I did a cold boot of the computer
then...
I did a fresh install of Palm Desktop
I typed in a year's worth of data
I did not sync or otherwise connect a palm to the system
I selected month view
The system crashed!
I believe this takes the Palm device completely out of the loop. This problem occurs when typing data in Palm Desktop from the keyboard.
I appreciate any ideas, and will follow up on them.
Thanks again
Jack Cornelius
Since no Palm was involved, the corruption must have occured in the Palm Desktop program itself.

Show times in month view?

Hey all! Just made the switch from Outlook to iCal and am wondering when you're in the month view if you can have the individual entries show the time. Thanks so much!

hmmm4321,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
It seems that iCal>Preferences...>General>"Show time in month view" may be what you are looking for.
