SignatureInfo.Date Displays wrong Day

When I sign a digital signature field on a PDF form, in the properties window, the date is showing as "2010.02.24 10:25:40 -06'00'"
However, when I extract the date programmatically, it's returning as "2/3/2010 10:25:40am"
Does anyone know why the day is 3 weeks off or just wrong in general?

I'm signing using a Topaz Digital Signature Pad.
Here's the code of how I'm extracting it:
   '*** PDF Initializing Variables ***
    Dim AcroApp As Acrobat.AcroApp
    Dim formApp As AFORMAUTLib.AFormApp
    Dim acroForm As AFORMAUTLib.Fields
    Dim field As AFORMAUTLib.Field
    Dim avDoc As Acrobat.CAcroAVDoc
    Dim pdDoc As Acrobat.CAcroPDDoc
    Dim bOK As Boolean
    Dim jsObj As Object
    Dim Info As Object
    Sub Main()
        ' OPEN PDF
        AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
        AcroApp.Lock("TEST")
        avDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc") 'New Acrobat.AcroAVDoc
        Console.WriteLine("Object Created")
        bOK = avDoc.Open("C:\TEST.pdf", "Admission Document")
        ' GET PDDoc
        pdDoc = avDoc.GetPDDoc
        pdDoc.OpenAVDoc("C:\TEST.pdf")
        jsObj = pdDoc.GetJSObject
        If (bOK) Then
            formApp = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")
            acroForm = formApp.Fields
        End If
        field = acroForm.Item("Signature1")
        If field.Value <> Nothing Then
            Info = jsObj.getField("Signature1").signatureInfo()
            MsgBox("Signature1: " & Info.date)
        End If
        pdDoc.Close()
        avDoc.Close(True)
        AcroApp.UnlockEx("TEST")
        AcroApp = Nothing
    End Sub
I basically open the document, get the PDDoc, get the JSObject, check to see if the signature has been signed, and then message box the date for testing purposes.

  • Birthday dates display wrongly

    This is not about sync from some other resources.
    I tried creating new contact - which is fine until i want to enter a birthday.
    It just won't display the correct birthday.
    for example: I choose August 21 1987
    it will show up as 22nd or 23rd
    I have tried to create 5 different birthdays for different contacts, it shows up every time as 1 or 2 days later then the true birthday.

  • Displaying wrong date(One day earlier then the current)

    Has anyone experienced this problem. I have an inputText field that is to take in a date value. When I use the DateTimeConverter to check if the date is valid, the returned date valu is always one day earlier than the user input day.
    How do I resolve this. Is there a setting that I need to change?
    Thanks in advance.

    Which JSF Implementation is this code extract from?
    I am using IBM WebSphere 6.0 and also experiencing a problem with an InputText displaying the day before. For example when the InputText value is set to 21-Apr-2007, 20-Apr-2007 is displayed. Here is a simplified version of what I'm doing:

         <h:inputText id="opDate" styleClass="inputText"
              binding="#{inputTextDatesBean.htmlInputText}">
         </h:inputText>

  • Address book rotating date feature sets wrong DAY

    Has anyone noticed that the rotating date setter in address book does not work properly. When you try to set a Birthday date - say 22nd it will end up at say 20th always a couple of days wrong. Even setting on Imac and synching it will sync wrong DAY - month and year are OK.
    Weird or What!

    Interestingly, I also have this problem, and I also live in NZ... (hi ppls~)
    After reading the posts in this topic, namely Holly's posts about problems occuring between Nov to Feb, I went and changed someone's b'day several times to see what happens.
    What I found out was b'days that are set on or before October 29 display correctly, but b'days set on or after oct 30 display one day early.
    Daylight saving for 2005 starts on the 2 of Oct, so it probably isn't to do with that.
    The other thing I found out, is if you have a b'day set to the first of march, it disappears. It doesn't display at all.. until you go to a leap year, such as 2004. There you will see that the b'day is set to the 29 of feb: one day early. But it probably isnt' related to the 29th of feb, because birthdays set on or after 6th of march are correct, but on or before the 5th of march are a day early.
    Now... one more thing i found out is that if your week starts on sunday (as set in the preferences), the 6th of march is the first day (sunday) in the second line of the march 2005 calendar. The 29th of oct is the last day (saturday) in the second to last line of the oct 2005 calendar.
    This may be a coincidence, but highly unlikely.
    These dates don't change if you change the year to 2004 in sys preferences. Maybe it's just a freak bug, or maybe it can't be fooled by simply changing the year in system prefs..
    I agree with Andy Burson, though, one day early is better than one day late

  • Date Parameters displaying a day prior on Report Layout

    Hi,
    I am currently creating some reports using Oracle BI Publisher 11.1.1.6.2.
    The reports in question have a Start Date from Parameter and an End Date To Parameter.
    I also display the values for the parameters in the Report Layout which appears to display the values entered correctly in the Interactive Viewer, but looking at other outputs (i.e. HTML, Excel, PDF etc.) the value in the parameter field in the layout always displays a day prior to what has been entered.
    Has anyone come across this?
    Thanks in advance.

    This is an example of code:
    <?xdofx:substr(season_start_date,6,2)?>
    This would take the month out of the repository variable: season_start_date, in the format MM.
    (MM is on the 6th position, with a length of 2.)

  • Wrong today date displayed

    Someone can explain me why the date displayed into the banner of my portal pages is "fixed" at one day lost in the past ?? :-)
    Thx a lot in advance.
    Max

    It looks as if you may be assuming that the last-modified date for a folder is the most-recent last-modified time of the files within it. That's not correct. A folder is modified, for example, when a file is added to it. But then the last-modified time of the folder will remain constant if it contains the same files, even if some of the files are modified.

  • Original GI date should display closest day when Saturday and Sunday comes

    Hi Guys,
    I am getting Original GI Date as After deducting Transit time from Original Delivery Date.
    But i want to fullfill  the below requiremnt also.
    the Original GI Date should be then the working day defined in the calendar of the shipping point. Thus if the calculation gives  Original GI Date to be Sunday 4.3.2012 then it should changed to the closest previous working date which is Friday 2.3.2012 (calendar 'YT').
    Any one help me how to execute the above requiremnt.
    regards
    reddy.

    Hi,
    Pass your GI date to below given FM, it will return you the day of the week.
    CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_COMPUTE_DAY'
    EXPORTING
    DATE = GI_DATE
    IMPORTING
    DAY = day_of_week_num
    EXCEPTIONS
    OTHERS = 8.
    the value returned by this FM in day_of_week_num will be between 1 to 7, 1 representing Monday and 6 = Saturday and 7 = sunday.
    Now if your working days are from monday to friday then simply check the value returned by this FM is it is 6 then you can subtract 1 for last friday or add 2 for next monday and in the same fashion if value returned is 7 then subtract 2 for last friday and add 1 for next monday in GI date.
    For adding and subtracting value from GI date you can use FM RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL.  And if you need to check some settings related to Factory calander then you can use FM DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORYDATE.

    Durgesh.

  • 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

    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."

  • Finder date display- Yosemite

    My Macbook Pro has been having slowness problems, and I just noticed some folders have unusual date displays: 2014 M04 17:50.
    I have never seen the M, which must mean month before yesterday. Anybody have some light to shine on this?
    I have run MacScan for tracking cookies and spyware- found 2 Safari tracking cookies, but nothing else. Also ran Adwaremedic- nothing found.

    Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
    1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.
    It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, defend against such attacks.
    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
    The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    ☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    ☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't been checked for security by Apple unless it comes from the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    ☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    ☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    ☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
    For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
    Software from an untrustworthy source
    ☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
    ☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
    ☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
    ☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
    Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
    ☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
    ☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
    Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
    ☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    ☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
    ☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
    ☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
    ☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
    ☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
    Unexpected events
    ☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
    ☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    ☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
    I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
    Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
    7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
    ☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
    ☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    ☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    ☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
    8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
    Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
    London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
    You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.
