Very Strange- Mail changes all dates after two days

I have a very strange behavior:
Apple Mail changes the date-information of incoming and outgoing mails after about two days -
for the first two days it says "today" or "yesterday" after that it changes all dates to one single date (december 12.2009 and some to december 12.2010).
I just put in a new pram battery, so this cannot be the problem.
what the heck is this?

Hi Noe, do you have anything in Rules that is set to happen after 2 days?
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup

  • I accidentally changed all dates of all events, how do I correct it?

    Hi,
    I accidentally changed all dates of all events, now my entire library of 17000 pics is messed up. Fortunately I have the luxury of two backups: time machine and old Toad's iPhoto dB Backup. Which one should I use, to get back were I was?
    Thank you

    If you trust the TM version, delete the current library and then restore the TM version. Or, get an external HD or connect to another Mac to temporarily store the current version.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Using DW CS6; when uploading a site DW changes all dates to today; how can I upload without changing the file-dates?

    Using DW CS6; when uploading a site DW changes all dates to today;
    how can I upload the site whilst preserving existing file-dates?
    Thanks
    Paul

    How are you uploading?
    I do not see this behavior in DWCS4 or DWCC (I assume nothing changed in DWCS6 and then back for DWCC, but I could be wrong).
    However, when I upload, I only select the files I have modified after an initial "Upload Entire Site? Yes/No" prompt. If you aren't selecting specific files to upload, and you're overwriting the files on your server with new copies of your entire local site each time, the mod dates would show as the date/time of your upload.
    To select only the files that have changed since your last upload...
    1. Right click on your local root folder in the Files window under Local View
    2. Go to Select > Newer Local from the context menu
    3. Wait until DW is done talking to the server, it could take a while, when it's done, all of the files that have a newer mod date locally than their server counterparts will be selected
    4. Click the Put (up arrow) button
    For me, this process never changes the dates of files that aren't part of the upload.

  • New G5 DEAD after two days

    I have a DP 2.3 G5 and a 23" CD and it worked fine for two days. Was running 2.5 Gigs of RAM, working great. Yesterday while running iTunes and a few other things the 23" CD went to sleep, though the music continued to play. I moved my mighty mouse to wake the display and the machine froze, and the music stopped. Tried to restart with the power button, finally had to unplug, and not it won't start. Power button turns on, fans come on but I get no chime and the light ont he power button goes out (no blinking). No LED. I've removed the added RAM, same result. I've removed ALL RAM, and got the LED but no chime or beeping. I've reset the PMU, no change.
    HELP

    With only two days experience, it's hard to tell what is wrong, since there wasn't time to tell what was right!
    First step is to run the Apple Hardware Test (AHT) that is on the Software Install DVD that came with your computer. Until you know that the hardware and any extras such as the additional RAM is working, we can't make much progress diagnosing what went wrong.
    Be prepared for the AHT Extended Test to run several hours, for your fans to all run at full speed and for the display to stay lit the entire time. What a way to spend Thanksgiving! Start the test just before you leave for your holiday dinner and it should be done by the time you get back. Post your results and you'll get lots of advice, but you have to provide specifics of what is right before we can work on what went wrong.
    P.S. Your G5 won't run with no RAM, so put back what it came with, but leave out the additional RAM, then run just the Quick Test to make sure the stock hardware is OK, then add your additional RAM and go for the Extended Test.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Please help! is there a (easy) way to remove/copy files to ext HD without changing ANY date? An d how about e-mail attachments, they also change all dates

    Dear forum readers
    All I want is to copy my pics to another disk without MAC OS change the date on wich I shot them. Pics, sent to me by e-mail also loose there original date. I understand the difference between making a new file by copying, but I don't understand why it change when I remove them.

    There are two kinds of metadata involved when you consider  jpeg or other image file.
    One is the file data. This is what the Finder shows. This tells you nothing about the contents of the file, just the File itself.
    The problem with File metadata is that it can easily change as the file is moved from place to place or exported, e-mailed, uploaded etc.
    Photographs have also got both Exif and IPTC metadata. The date and time that your camera snapped the Photograph is recorded in the Exif metadata. Regardless if what the file date says, this is the actual time recorded by the camera.
    Photo applications like iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa, Photoshop etc get their date and time from the Exif metadata.
    The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif. You need to use an app that understands Exif.

  • In IPhoto I changed movie dates after thumb nails were created in IMovie but the new dates are not showing up in IMovie.  Is there someway to refresh the IPhoto event in IMovie?

    Background:  I'm transferring file folders from a Visa laptop via an external hard drive to my IMac.  In the folders are photos and videos from different cameras.  SO I first tried to import to IMovie but it would not recognize any of the files.  So then I imported into IPhoto and both photos and videos were imported and I created events for each folder.  When I first opened IMovie I had to wait for it to create "thumb nails".  Then I could view the events in IMovie BUT the video clips are not together because they have vastly different dates and are mixed with videos from other events.  I looked at the dates and said I can fix that in IPhoto which i did but those new dates are not showing up in IMovie.    I think I need to somehow refresh the event data that Imovie is using but have not found how to do that in either IPhoto or IMovie. 
    I'm doing this on three events with about 100 photos and videos.  But I have many 1000s more to do so need to know how to either fix this or delete these events, reimport, change the dates, then open again in IMovie.   I'm sure that would work but I can't understand why changing the dates in IPhoto is not being reflected in IMovie.  
    Appreciate any tips or pointers.
    OBTW this is my first question as a first time Apple owner. 

    It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did. 
    Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
    I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!
