Time stamp wrong in skype and thunderbird while menu bar has correct time

I noticed in my applications like Skype, MSN Messenger, Thunderbird email that the time stamp was wrong. But the Menu Bar clock and the system preferences Date and Time were correct. My exact error is that the app timestamp always showed the time as PM.
I googled for answers and several topics mentioned a locked / misplaced / corrupted localtime file.
However, The real reason is that I had a custom time format under Languages and Text system preference. For some reason the custom format showed morning as PM and evening as PM. I opened the preference, selected time, and changed it from Custom to USA.
There are several similar errors (always showing 20 before time, ie 20:43, always is 7 oclock, ie 7:32, or etc) that were mentioned in other tickets I read.
I followed this post to go into languages and Text to correct the custom time format; http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11503087 (see last post. IGNORE the part about plist!)

Mail displays the date & time according to your System Preferences > International > Formats settings. The specific format used (i.e. Short, Long, etc.) may depend on the column width. It looks like there is something wrong with your Dates > Customize or Times > Customize settings there...
> I've tried expanding the date column width in Mail, and changing to US
(instead of International) Date / Time format in my system preferences
Not sure what you mean. I don’t see an “International” option anywhere other than the name of the International preferences panel itself...

Firefox is not picking up URLs from other programs such as Skype and Thunderbird. It did so correctly until very recently.hunderbird, we URL link.

Since updating Firefox, I cannot click on a URL in Skype or Thunderbird and have it go to the page. I have to cut and poaste the URL into the address line in Firefox.

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.

I am having issues with adjusting the duration of time for each still frame and transition in imovie 11. Each time that I adjust these times, the app does not accept the change, and automatically enters its own time. Am I doing something wrong?

Have you tried turning off automatic transitions ? Choose file - project properties and follow the dialogue box to change duration with a slider. iMovie also doesn't allow a transition to be more than 50% duration of the clip its attached to. In other words if the clip is 4 seconds the transition cannot be more than 2 seconds and remember that relates to the first clip as the following clip (right side) is pulled back to overlay it.
Does this help. Perhaps you already know this ?

My new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.

my new macbook pro is giving me hardtime. even apple team is not being to solve it. they replace the motherboard first it didn't work. second time they formatted the computer and that also didn't work. every time my mac showing different problems.
At first my computer had issues. Once it go to sleep it will not back again. I dropped my laptop at apple store to fix it. After 10 days they returned my laptop saying they were no able to fix the problem so they replaced motherboard aiming if that might help. Acttually that didn't help.I had same issue again. I visited apple store again. This time they said they could fix, if I will allow them to format the harddrive. I said ok. They formatted it. It was working fine for few daysAfter few days compter is taking.even more than 15 min to shutdown. Now computer has another problem. It is being hang frequently like every 20'to.30 min.
I don't know what to do? I still have one month left on first year warranty. I have requested couple times to apple associates either to fix or replace or refund. They are showing me rude behavior. They are not understanding my situation. I am a student. I need to do lot of home work. Since last three month my mac book and apple associates giving me hard time. Any suggestions are welcome.

Contact Apple Customer Care - not Apple Care - Customer Support. Have your receipts handy and/or case numbers. Be patient, be calm, and tell your story just as you have here. I get the sense you are not in the US and don't have access to an Apple Store but are going to an independent shop. This makes using Customer Support all the more important. If phoning isn't viable, use registered mail.
Since time is running short, be prepared to purchase AppleCare to exennd your warranty 2 more years. Yes, you shouldn't have to do this, but it gives you added protection and more opportunities over the next 2 years to claim a replacement computer if you don't get one immediately. After dealing with a similar unhappy situation with a Mac in the late 1990s I finally got a replacement computer and reimbursed for the AppleCare policy.

Here are two "Menu" add-ons which alter the Menu bar into one button.
With this one you can move the new "Menu" button into the Customize Palette, and then when you hit the '''Alt''' key the "Menu will open down from the Titlebar on the left. Won't affect the action of the Firefox button when you de-select the Menu Bar.<br />

This one I haven't used recently, but you can play with it to see what is possible. <br />

IE8 and Spry vertical menu bar

The spry menu bar has disappeared in IE8, still works fine in Firefox, and did in IE7: http://jimgreenrealty.com/Test.html
What needs to be done to get it working again? Thanks,

Thanks, I have the download, but I'm not sure how to install it. Can
you give a hint? It may be obvious but I don't dabble in Spry very often.
Thanks,

Why to I have a blue haze on the photos and on the menu bars of apps? I have Intel iMac running OSX 10.7.5

Why to I have a blue haze on the photos and on the menu bars of apps. I have Intel iMac running OSX 10.7.5. This problem just started. All my photos are corurpted with a blue haze.

Here is another photo with the wierd blue circle in the sky taken with a DSLR. This did not appear until recently and now I see it on all photos and also when I print the photo.

Yahoo is my home page. I updated to the new version of firefox per yahoo and now my tool bar has changed. I want the old tool bar back? The old one had an X when I wanted to stop something.

I want the old tool bar back? The old one had an X when I wanted to stop something (I just clicked on the X). Also, the old toolbar has a "home" that I clicked on and it went staight back to yahoo main page

Not sure whether for instance you initially had a Yahoo optimised version of Firefox, and have now overwritten it with an official Mozilla version. Although the Mozilla version should NOT add unwanted features, but the Yahoo version may well do.
If you merely need to find the Yahoo emails page quickly just add it as a bookmark or as a bookmark on the Bookmarks toolbar and make sure that is visible.
Clicking the star icon on the location bar whilst looking at your emails will bookmark the page.
* [[How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites]]
* [[Bookmarks Toolbar - Display your favorite websites at the top of the Firefox window]]
I do not use Yahoo myself,and am not sure what add-ons are available. You could search yourself using
* FirefoxButton -> add-ons
** see [[Find and install add-ons to add features to Firefox]]
** examples [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/yahoo-toolbar/ yahoo toolbar] & [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/yahoo-mail-notifier/ mail notifier]
* also look at Yahoo's own information such as http://help.yahoo.com/tutorials/toolbar/cl3/c3_ff_toolbar1.html

Aperture on Intel iMac running 10.7.5 has blue streaks on color photos and on Aperture menu bar

Everytime I open latest version of Aperture, I get blue streaks across the photos and on the menu bar for the App. Photos that are opened and or exported in Aperture are corrupted with blue streaks. This problem makes the App completly useless.

They are nothing like I expected to see. When viewing at 1000% (in Graphic Converter), they appear to be different shading on individual pixels although it can easily be missed, even on my Retina display on my MBP? They definitely do no appear as lines or streaks.
In the EXIF info, I see that the exposure is described as the Creative Exposure Program. What does your camera manual say about that? Any googling I do seems to refer to some sort of Art Filter? Whatever it means, it also seems that the photo had to be rotated.

Hello downloaded my indesign 6 and my menu bar has disappeared... help please!!!!

Downloaded from what web site, and what menu bar?

When I click iphoto it hops and the top menu bar comes up but that is it no files and albums come up it just has my front page pic

When I click iphoto it hops and the top menu bar comes up but that is it no files and albums come up it just has my front page pic

A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
