Time & Date keep refreshing in BIOS

Sorry
I'm new to Toshs so I am sure this is a very easy problem. Keep re-setting the time & date.
It will hold in the BIOS for about a week and then need to be updated again. I'm upgrading the hard drive anyway but don't want to start this without getting to the route of this issus.
Battery issue?

Sounds so
I think the RTC (BIOS) battery is not fully charged.
In the user manual you should find details about BIOS battery and how long its necessary to charge it.
I think you should let the notebook running for about 12-16 hours on ac adapter.
Then the RTC battery should be fully charged
Bye

  • Time/date keep changing

    In the past few days, my Iphone has been changing from current date/time (January 30 at various times) back to January 1st or 3rd and not the correct time. Is anyone else having this happen?

    We have 4 iPhones in the house and they're all experiencing this problem at random. I spoke with an AT&T CSR and she had me do the usual trouble shooting steps but nothing helped. She transferred me to a "Network Technician" who checked the network and said there was "definitely" no problem on AT&T's end and that I needed to call Apple. He may be right since not all of the iPhones in the house experience the problem at the same time. Sometimes, like today, only 1 of the 4 is experiencing the time date problem. We've seen the problem on 3.1.2 and 3.1.3. The phone experiencing it began showing the right time & date before I could call Apple.

  • Finder Sider Side Bar - "Shared" Items Keeps Refreshing

    I have an iMac where the Finder side bar "Shared" Items (other Macs on the LAN and a Time Capsule) keep refreshing. In other words, it disappears for a split second and then reappears every 120 seconds or so. Bonjour refresh, me thinks. This happens on both ethernet and WiFi.
    I have replaced the Time Capsule - at first thinking this was the issue. I have also removed the sidebar.plist file. Both with no success.
    Any thoughts? Search criteria turned up little.
    OS - 10.6.7

    I appreciate you taking the time to look. My 3 macs are now displaying only other Leopard computers. The strange ones have disappeared. One strange listing did look like my airport express base station. I have a 2nd express airport which servers to play my itunes. I, also, have two PCs on a Linksys wireless network and a wireless printer on my airport network.
    Have no idea why the strange additions have disappeared. In an attempt to get them to disappear, I did shut down & restart each computer (Macs & PCs), unplugged and replugged both express airports, turned off then on the printer, and unplugged and replugged the linksys wireless router connected to my DSL modem. My goal was to isolate the equipment causing the strange listings. No luck. Could only modify the strange listing by totally taking down the wireless network at the DSL modem. Then, after returning from working at a client's; everything looked normal. ?????

  • I bought a new iMac today. I'm using migration assistant to move all my software, but the time just keeps getting longer. It says connect an Ethernet cable for faster data transfer. I did, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas?

    m1doc,
    Are you migrating from a Mac or a MS Window machine? Either way you probably should be in touch with AppleCare, you have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support. They can usually help on issues like this. If you don't know the phone number please use http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 to help find the number in your country.

  • TIme and Date keep changoing

    I am running the New 21.5 iMac with 10.6.1 and bootcamp with windows 7. My time and date keep changing, going forward 2-3 days and changing from AM to PM. This happens when I boot into Windows 7 or put it to sleep. I tried setting it to use the Apple NTP server and setting it manually, but neither keep it correct. Also, this is another issue, the display drivers do not offer the highest or correct resolution in Windows 7, it only shows a generic VGA display adapter in device manager.
    TIA for any help!

    Hello d:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    I do not use Windows on my Macs (and have no intention of doing so). Having said that, there is a forum for people who do here:

  • I keep losing the time date stamp when uploading the video and need to keep it HELP

    Using Premier 7 making a video for my son and need to keep the time/date stamp that is visible when playing the video direct from the camera to the tv. When I compile the video and burn to DVD this Stamp disappears how do keep it on the film that I am editing so when I burn it will be still there?

    Ah, PrElements 7. I thought that you had Pr 7.0, which was also named PrPro 1.0.
    The forum that you want is HERE.
    Now, in PrE's forum, look for the FAQ section, to the right of the main page. Steve Grisetti has done a few FAQ's on HDD cameras, and their MPEG files.
    As for your Date/Time stamp, I am not sure if any of the DVDate programs will work directly with that. There are a few threads, but I do not recall the solutions. Do a search of that forum and you will get some info.
    Back in later versions of PrPro, I have some tips on TimeCode, but that is different than what you want.
    I also do not know if something like SceneAlyzer Live can Capture what you want.
    Still, others have asked in the PrE forum, so there might be some solutions.
    See you there,

  • When I use facebook chat my friends say I appear offline even though I am online. The page keeps refreshing and everytime it refreshes my typed text appears 3-4 times in the chat window.

    I have the latest version of firefox and this problem started a few days back. When I start chatting on fb chat right after I stop typing my friends say my status appears offline. The fb page keeps refreshing and everytime it reloads my chat window gets disturbed. Sometimes what I had typed and entered in the chat window appears in the chat box 3-4 times. Not sure if this could be a plugin problem? I have the latest version of Java and Flash player installed.

  • Time/Date to GMT keeping in mind DST

    I have a servlet that gets the system Time/Date and needs to convert it to GMT(Greenwich Mean Time), it also needs to convert for DST(Daylight Savings Time) in the code. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Presumably the current time zone of the client is not GMT/UMT.
    So you need to create a TimeZone for GMT/UMT.
    Then you use that when creating SimpleDateFormat. Then the format method of that instance will produce a string with the correct (relative) time value.

  • After upgrade to mavericks: time machine keeps asking for my back up disk and won't open unless i plug in the disk. any solutions?

    after upgrade to mavericks: time machine keeps asking for my back up disk and won't open unless i plug in the disk. any solutions?
    before the upgrade, i could open time machine without the need for having the back up disk plugged in.

    Ok. I got it to work, sort of....
    As I mentioned before I tried the "disk password" and the "Time capsule Password" options to see if I can start the back up again or start a new backup. Neither worked. So I tried the firmware down grade, but like you said that did not work. I then decided to try the "Account password" option and I have never used this option before becasue it states that if there is data on the drive it would not be acessable after creating an account. Since I wiped out the disk that was nno problem. When I created the new account and choose the drive it asked for the user name and password. I entered the info for the new account I just created(FYI this has nothing to do with your login username and password), bingo! It worked!
    Now I have two partitions on the TC disk. The old one and now the new account. I am guessing this is to be used if I have multiple computers, which I don't.
    I any case, I am going to wipe out everything again and try again to do a backup the way I had it before.

  • Does anyone know of a VI or how to go about writing one that will prevent the computers time/date from being disabled while an application is running.

    Does anyone know of a VI or how to go about writing one that will prevent the computers clock/time from being disabled while an application is running. The time and date can normally be reset while an application is running by clicking on the time/date in the lower right-hand corner of the computer screen. I have an application that runs over several days and it is critical that the time and date of the computer not be changed. Is there an easy way to lock this out from the user? Note that I am what I consider an advanced beginner in LV.
    Thank you,
    Chuck
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That is not something you can do from LabVIEW, as it is an operating system operation, and it will depend on the operating system that you're using. On Windows you can use a group policy to control this. Please Google on "prevent time and date change in windows".
    Also, please try to refrain from stuffing your entire message in the subject block. Keep the subject short, but descriptive enough so it can be understood what you are basically asking. Thanks.

  • Performance issue in browsing SSAS cube using Excel for first time after cube refresh

    Hello Group Members,
    This is a continuation of my earlier blog question -
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a1e424a2-f102-4165-a597-f464cf03ebb5/cache-and-performance-issue-in-browsing-ssas-cube-using-excel-for-first-time?forum=sqlanalysisservices
    As that thread is marked as answer, but my issue is not resolved, I am creating a new thread.
    I am facing a cache and performance issue for the first time when I try to open a SSAS cube connection using Excel (using Data tab  -> From Other Sources --> From Analysis Services) after daily cube refresh. In end users system (8 GB RAM but around
    4GB available RAM), for the first time, it takes 10 minutes to open the cube. From next run onwards, its open up quickly within 10 secs.
    We have daily ETL process running in high end servers. The configuration of dedicated SSAS cube server is 8 core, 64GB RAM. In total we have 4 cube DB - out of which for 3 is full cube refresh and 1 is incremental refresh. We have seen after daily cube
    refresh, it takes 10 odd minutes to open the cube in end users system. From next time onwards, it opens up really fast with 10 secs. After cube refresh, in server systems (32 GB RAM, around 4GB available RAM), it takes 2 odd minutes to open the cube.
    Is there, any way we could reduce the time taken for first attempt ?
    As mentioned in my previous thread, we have already implemented a cube wraming cache. But, there is no improvement.
    Currently, the cumulative size of the all 4 cube DB are more than 9 GB in Production and each cube DB having 4 individual cubes in average with highest cube DB size is 3.5 GB. Now, the question is how excel works with SSAS cube after
    daily cube refresh?
    Is it Excel creates a cache of the schema and data after each time cube is refreshed and in doing so it need to download the cube schema in Excel's memory? Now to download the the schema and data of each cube database from server to client, it will take
    a significant time based on the bandwidth of the network and connection.
    Is it anyway dependent to client system RAM ? Today the bigest cube DB size is 3.5 GB, tomorrow it will be 5-6 GB. Now, though client system RAM is 8 GB, the available or free RAM would be around 4 GB. So, what will happen then ?
    Best Regards, Arka Mitra.

    Could you run the following two DMV queries filling in the name of the cube you're connecting to. Then please post back the row count returned from each of them (by copying them into Excel and counting the rows).
    I want to see if this is an issue I've run across before with thousands of dimension attributes and MDSCHEMA_CUBES performance.
    select [HIERARCHY_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_hierarchies
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    select [LEVEL_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_levels
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    Also, what version of Analysis Services is it? If you connect Object Explorer in Management Studio to SSAS, what's the exact version number it says on the top server node?
