Time stamp changes

When I copy my photos from my camera to my computer, the time stamp on them change. The actual time I created the photo becomes the photo's "date modified" property and the actual time I copied the files to my computer becomes the file's "Date Created" property. I don't like this. How do I get the actual date created property to copy over correctly?

In Started Workflow screen...
just click on any one of the activity on the workflow log..
In Menu option click goto->technical workitem display
Then again in menu optios click edit--> change
Now you can change the container value.

FileMonitor issue for date time stamp change.

Hi I have an app that runs with a minor issue and I am looking for some insight for a workaround or code change.
I have a File Monitor that checks a specific directory every second.
Users send a batch run to this directory throughout the day. There are two types of files, .ZIPs and .DONEs.
So for each .ZIP a .DONE is sent to notify the app it can begin to process the file.
Here is what I receive
/elements/process/File1.ZIP     Oct 15 08:19
/elements/process/File1.DONE     Oct 15 08:19
The problem I am encountering is sometimes the .DONE and. ZIP are sent and the date time stamp of both files are the same so when the monitor reads the directory it looks like there is no change so both files sit in the directory and do not process. To make this work, I usually go in and touch a file to change the date time stamp.
This is a java app that runs on an AIX box.
Here is my code, is there anything any once can suggest to help me out. Thanks in advance.
   * Subclass of FileMonitor, Handles the timer event
   * @param none
private class FileMonitorNotifier extends TimerTask
    public void run()
      // Loop over the registered files and see which have changed.
      // Uses the Modifed DateTimeStamp to determine if there was a change.
      // Use a copy of the list in case listener wants to alter the
      // list within its fileChanged method.
        try
            Collection files = new ArrayList (hmFiles.keySet());
            for (Iterator i = files.iterator(); i.hasNext(); )
                File file = (File) i.next();
                long lastModifiedTime = ((Long) hmFiles.get (file)).longValue();
                long newModifiedTime = file.exists() ? file.lastModified() : -1;
                //      Check if file has changed
                if (newModifiedTime != lastModifiedTime)
                    //      Register new modified time
                    hmFiles.put(file, new Long (newModifiedTime));
                    // Notify listeners
                    for (Iterator j = colListeners.iterator(); j.hasNext(); )
                        WeakReference reference = (WeakReference) j.next();
                        FileListener listener = (FileListener) reference.get();
                        // Remove from list if the back-end object has been GC'd
                        if (listener == null)
                            j.remove();
                        else
                            listener.fileChanged (file);
        catch(Exception ex)
             m_odLaunch.logError(OdIntegrationConstants.ERROR_LEVEL_MIDLEVEL, ex);
     }

Yes, I guess you are right, I don't care what time each file came, as long as I have both I can being to unzip and process and delete the .DONE.
The code itself was based on if a filechanged then do work.... I could just take this out. Thanks!

Time stamp changes when exporting...

Hi,
I sometimes want to export an Aperture album to iPhoto so I can then send it to iDVD as a slide-show. I sometimes use Photoshopped jpeg diagrams (not photos) mixed in with my raw originals in the Aperture album as well. I've altered their time stamps so they everything is sorted chronologically as I'd like them.
When I export to a folder I'm finding that the time stamps are being altered and I have to tweak the order in iPhoto - or export with new filenames and sort by title afterwards. This behavious is very puzzling, is it a bug or a feature???

I have the same problem using Photoshop Elements as the editor. The time is changed by 1 hour. Why....? Has anyone found out how this can be stopped?

Time stamp changed from RAW to JPG

When I save my RAW photos in Lightroom Beta 4, the jpg files have the time of conversion, not of picture taking.

Or have you stripped the Metadata during the Export.....if you have "Copyright Only" selected in the Metadata section of the Export dialog, all original dates are stripped, and you'll get only the file created/modified dates (which will be the date/time of export).

*.eml Time Stamp - Select File in Windows Explorer Changes the Modified Date

The Windows Live Mail *.eml files time stamp is getting changed to the current date when the file is selected in the Windows Explorer! I save backup copies of important E-mails to folders on the Hard Drive and then synchronize them with the same folders on other LAN Hard Drives for backup archives. When these E-mail files are selected or opened from the Windows Explorer in the Windows 7 OPS the Modified Date Time Stamp is changed to the current date automatically! This action creates a real problem when doing later synchronizations of all of the folders! The date will not be the original date of the E-mail and the original file will be over copied with the file with the newest date stamp. I stopped Indexing on the *.eml files and that stopped the time stamp change when overcopy synchronization, but if the file is selected during a viewing in Windows Explorer then the Time Stamp is updated to the current date again! A solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated if anybody knows of one. Thanks - - - Shorto

The Date and Timestamp changing issue in Windows 7 has a two part fix!
1. Disable the Indexing of the *.eml file type in the Indexing Options located by Clicking on "Control Panel" - "Indexing Options" - Advanced Button - File Types Tab - scroll down to the .eml file type and uncheck the Box then click OK to finish, so
that the Email type of files won't be Indexed.
2. Delete the Registry Entry listed below, be sure to Export and Save the original Key so it could be Restored if something goes wrong! \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PropertySystem\PropertyHandlers
and Delete the .eml entry
That should fix the problem with the changing Date/Timestamp of Email Files. For more information read CarlS's WindowsSeven Fourm thread where I also have more input:
http://www.sevenforums.com/browsers-mail/35334-eml-files-timestamps-updated-constantly.html
This should give you a better understanding on the problem and the Fix. - - - Shorto

SMQS: when is time stamp in the "last change by" changed?

Dear Gurus,
Recently we are encountering issues in our OUTBOUND queue of ECC. In a certain time queues pile-up to almost 2K and are in status READY.
*Integration is ECC <-> APO
To understand if its a QRFC issue or a Overloaded WorkProcesses, we need to isolate each case.
First we assumed that the reason of having the READY status are:
1. due to the change in TYPE of the queue name (APO system) from R to U or vice versa
2. due to the change in STATUS of the queue name
What we would like to know is, what does the time stamp consider upon updating?
Are those assumptions above correct?
Also the User ID seems not being updated.
I asked the user indicated in the "last change by" if he did some change, but responded that he is not performing any change in the QRFC for the past few days. But it shows his name and current time stamp.
thanks and regards!
Zeek

Dear Babu, really appreciate your response on this.
Unfortunately, when i look into SMQS the APO system queue was already set to R. Upon checking the "last change by" (double clicking on the TYPE) i see that the time stamp was at current date and time.
And the only thing that can help us catch who/what is the cuplrit (user/background process), is to understand what are the factors that the time stamp in "last change by" considers. Also the user indicated in it, was saying he hasn't performed any changes that day... What bothers us is that it might be a background process as the time stamp keeps changing every time... Usually, for what i noticed, the time stamp there only register the date and time when our system had the support pack updated. but recently, it is showing that its been changing every day.
Moreover, our basis folk just assumes that the time stamp considers both the update in TYPE and as well as the change in STATUS. He is saying that the change in activity (when ECC transfers data to APO) is the reason behind the change in time stamp. For us to prove it, we checked on /SAPAPO/CC and saw that the last update of CIF/Any changes in ECC is similar to the one in SMQS last change, so it is not a valid reason, though the time is quite near what SMQS says.
So what we need to understand is that, was it really the CIF/any updates in Orders going to APO does trigger the time stamp change in SMQS "last change by"?
thanks!

Time Stamp in powershell

I want to use powershell copy 1-2 files with the current date and time.
The new file generated daily in the folder arranged by date, such as testfile_2014-11-25-10-30-11.txt
I only want to copy the current date file among 50 files in the folder.
copy-item -path d:\test
$(get-date -f MM-DD-yyyy-HH_mm_ss)
Any input is welcome.

you technique is good but didn't work in my case.
I have a complex issue..
The time stamp changes daily , I only need to copy one file with today's date and time.
I am at wits end, please help.
C;mon. Put on your thinking cap. A date is a date all day nomatter what the time is. You only need the time if ther eis more tan one daily time.
Don't they teach you kids anything in school. I though logic was a reqquirement for being a compuyer technician. Perhaps we now leave all human thinking to web forums and computers. THe dumbing down of humans. Computer will rule us
all in only a few years.
Yes - learn to think! A days date is valid all day long. WHu cares about the hours, minutes, seconds, milleseconds, microsecaons of a single file created somewher during the day.
Or you can jsut guess at the time. Start at onmicroszecond after midnight and test every microsecon until midnoight.

Displaying time-stamps on comment balloons

Hi,
I am a contract negotiator and often send a document back and forth several times with the document locked and "Tracked Changes" enabled so I can see all additions/deletions that the other party makes. The trouble is that after a few back-and-forths
it gets very, very hard to keep up with when a comment was made.
From browsing forums and searching solutions, it looks to me like the Mac version of Microsoft Word displays this information by default. The closest I can get here in my Windows machine is if I hover the mouse on top of the balloon/bubble it displays a
time/date. However, that time-stamp changes every time I send/receive the document. (I'm not sure exactly why but my best guess is that the time-stamp displays the "Last Modified" time, and the comment is considered "modified"
if a new comment is inserted above it, thereby changing the ordinal numbering of the original comment.)
NOTE: In the picture you can see that when I hover the date displayed was 4/18 (the date I had recieved the document back from the other party), BUT I actually made the comment on 3/20 (this is how I've been working so I could remember when my comment was
made, but I can't tell the other party to do this. This seems absurd to me and it's endlessly frustrating.
The result is that I end up having to have the last 2 or 3 versions of the document pulled up, side by side, so I tell which comments are new to the current draft and which ones are just left over from the
last version I sent to the person.
This seems like a very basic/simple thing to me and I have searched the settings/options/forums/etc and I cannot figure this out! Thank you for any help you can offer!

Hi Hal,
Yes, the screenshot in my last reply is from Word 2013, but the result are the same in Word 2010 (yes, the "X minutes ago" is added in Word 2013). And I run the test (modify/add the comments) in Word 2010.
I upload the screenshot from Word 2013 because as you've noticed, the time stamps are displayed more clearly. (sorry for the confusing.)
I'm not sure if it is a know issue that has been fixed in the later version of Word 2010, but it still worth to keep your Office up to date, and I suppose you also need to encourage your co-workers to do the same.
And after you have update your Office to the latest version, try create a new document and see if you can still reproduce this behavior,
if no, then we can consider it has been fixed in the update;
if yes, please provide more detailed steps, so I can try to follow your exact steps to reproduce it;
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To keep your Office up to date, enable the setting under:
Control Panel -> Windows Update -> Change settings -> Microsoft Updates -> Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows
Also you can mannually download and install the Service Pack 1 for Office 2010 from:

Changing time stamp format in the file receiver adapter file name

Hi all,
How can we change the standard date time stamp from
filename_yyyymmdd-hhmmss-mil
to
filename_yymmdd_hhmmss
i.e., I want "underscores" instead of "hyphens" and also I do not want the MilliSeconds.
I read in the forums that I have to use the combination of variable substitution and mapping functions to do this, but not sure how exactly.
Can the experts help me with this please?
Many thanks.

Hello Ramesh,
     You can make this possible using runtime filename creation using UDF.
Please go though the below steps.
Message mapping:
Create an UDF and include the piece of code that captures the Filename and Timestamp from source side via ASMA.
Modify them according to our requirement by adding the <Timestamp> at the end of <filename> with _.
Map the UDF to any of the top level node so that the modified filename will be available for the target communication channel
UDF Code is:
try {
String filename    = "";
String timestamp = "";
DynamicConfiguration conf1 = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key2 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","SourceFileTimestamp");
filename = conf1.get(key1);
timestamp = conf1.get(key2);
filename = filenametimestamp".xml";
filename = filename.replaceAll( "-" ,"_" );
conf1.put(key1,filename);
return filename;
catch(Exception e)
     String exception = e.toString();
      return exception;
Click on Advanced tab and check the Option u201CSetAdapterSpecificMessageAttributesu201D in addition to that check the attribute that are required to be captured during run time. In our case File Name and Source File Time Stamp are required to be checked
In the receiver communication channel Mention u2018 * u2018as File Name Scheme.
Click on Advanced tab and check the Option u201CSetAdapterSpecificMessageAttributesu201D in addition to that check the attribute u201CFile Nameu201D which will carry the modified value in the UDF .
i hope this will help you.

I have a psts on my mac and the time stamp hasnt changed since i added this to the mac even though they have been imported?

i have a psts on my mac and the time stamp hasnt changed since i added this to the mac even though they have been imported?
where is the data stored when i moves messages to the imported pst?
after serval months of rebuidling and creating new identites for Outlook for mac2010 any reasons why this is constantly happening?

I am not sure what you mean by this.
is it ok to delete outlook ID's copy/backup as running out of space?
If you mean you have several identities in the Office Identities folder then yes. You can delete whatever you don need\want except for your current.
Are you updated to the latest version of Office?
After the restore, navigate to ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/your identity and delete the file called Database. Then rebuild.
This may help:

Need to add date/time stamp to file name without time change creating new files

We have setup our application to save data once a trigger event occurs. We also need the date/time stamp as part of the file name. We used Format Date/Time String and concatenated it into the file name. It all works good, but as the time changes (seconds, minutes, etc.) it causes the Write to File to create a new file with the new filename. Is there a way to create the file and save/latch/buffer the time in the file name so that it doesn't create a new file for every second?
I've attached a shot of the relevant part of our VI. It's all in a big while loop. The data save is in a case/switch so that when it is triggered it starts saving. (The for loop is to split the data up
into 4 different files). Like I said, it all works except new files are created every second as the time changes instead of just putting it all in one file with the initial time in the file name.

I need a loop in order to use a shift register. I cannot stop the outer while loop (because it would stop the hardware from collecting data), and I cannot add loops inside which bogs down the processor to where the app stops. I've attached a simpler version of my VI which illustrates the problem. While the button is pressed (the trigger) it should save the data (in this case just cycle numbers) into one file with the initial date/time. But, you can see that it creates 1 file/second. I tried using shift registers, but without adding extra loops I can't see how to do it. Thanks

How do I change date time stamp

I've been trying to Adjust the date and time stamp on photos in iphoto and it keeps changing the date by subtracting days and minutes instead of simply changing the date and time to what I type in. What am I doing wrong?

That is exactly what adjust time and date does - it calculates the difference between what you type in and the photo info and then adds (or subtracts) that amount from all selected photos - its purpose it to "adjust" photos to correct for a camera being set wrong or to the wrong time zone
Batch change time and date lets you set a specific time for a group of photos with an option to add an increment to each succisive photo

Need to change Date/Time stamp on jpeg file

I combine images into panoramas using PTGUI. The problem is that the output image file is date stamped as the time that I created the image. I really want the date/time stamp to be the same as the images that go into the panorama. I cannot find a way in LR to change this.

Time Stamp, read from filename and change automatically

Hi,
while converting to an format (video monkey) which can be read by iMovie the files lost the propper time stamp. However, date and time is still part of the filename. Is there an option to change date and time within iMovie or any other app based on the file name so that I do not need to make this manualls for each individual file?

I would suggest using the ISO-8601 UTC format.
The only limitation is that the string value is in reference to GMT.
The conversion of the string back to a timestamp will present the date/time on your front panel indicator as local time.
https://lavag.org/topic/15034-timestamp-support-for-format-into-string-scan-variant-from-string-stri...
Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T

Change of time stamp on RAW thumbnails

I have PSE 9.0. I shoot in RAW on a Canon 550D and a Canon G10.
When I open a RAW file in editor, whether or not I edit that file, it changes the time stamp on the thumbnail by 1 hour. If I open it twice it changes the time by two hours, eg from 1.10pm to 2.10pm to 3.10pm. Of course, when I then re-open the Organiser, these thumbnails are out of order as shot.
I have no idea why this is happening. Is there some setting I need to change?

I think unlike jpeg files where the EXIF data will be embedded in the file Adobe will read the XMP data for Raw Files.
You can open an image in Full Edit and click File >>File Info to bring up the XMP dialog. The raw tab offers a wealth of information.
However the behavior you are experiencing seems odd and there looks to be a bug in the most recent update.
As you say it alters the order of photos from their original sequence. I think Adobe could introduce File Name Order as they do in Bridge. This would be a useful alternative for sorting files in the organizer.
I remember this old blog posting from 2008 which you may find interesting:
