Why do I have files with Date Created of Feb 5, 2040?
I have at least 26 documents with Date Created shown as Feb 5, 2040 10:28 PM.
The Date Modified seems to be okay, ranging from 9/24/00 to 10/29/12 - except for one that's 12/31/69.
The Get Information window shows the same dates as the normal Finder window.
File types are mostly DOC with some JPG and PDF and one TIFF.
All were created by me over the course of time on a succession of Macs (except for that 12/31/69 PDF, which was downloaded from Garmin) and then migrated.
Those I've checked have a Last Opened date that's the same as the Date Modified date.
These documents are all in my Documents folder, in two subfolders, with some of them further down a hierarchy of subfolders.
I first noticed this a few weeks ago.
The number of these 2/5/40 documents seems to be increasing.
Does anyone know:
What could cause this phenomenon?
How can I stop it?
It's not a big problem per se, but is it likely to cause other problems?
Is there a way to correct the Created Date?
Thanks for any help!
Then I may only guess that perhaps the date was off at some point in time that coincided with when those files were created or the application that created them has a bug in it.
Oh, at this point in time are all new files dated incorrectly? If so then there could be a corrupted part of the PRAM. You might try Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM.

Choose File Form Data Create Spreasheet From Data Files
I am following the tutorial for LC 8 and when I get to the topic titled "Collecting the data in a spreadsheet" it says to "Choose File > Form Data > Create Spreadsheet From Data Files".
However, when I try to follow that path I do not see a "Form Data > Create Spreadsheet From Data Files" menu option.
What am I not doing properly? How do I accomplish this task?
Thanks!Thank you so much Paul. I have been trying all day to locate the method by which I could create a spreadsheet using the pdf submit route. I suppose the tutorial in CS4 should have been changed to reflect the changed explanations, but I guess that would be difficult to do. Anyway it worked and I can now do the analysis I need from my customers (lots of pupils!).

A USB thumb drive with data created in Windows is not showing up on my desktop. Do I need a different driver or something?
OK in order to read those files you will need MS Office for Mac or install MS Windows on your Mac. You can get MS Office for Mac from anyone that sells Apple products. I would suggest the Apple Store, Best Buy, Amazon etc...For help getting the data from the memory stick I'd recommend visiting your local Apple Store or AASP and they can help you move it. It should be as simple as plugging the USB drive into your USB port and then open a Finder Window where you will see the drive on the left pane. If you don't know what Finder is or how to open a new Finder window you need the sites I've noted below!!!
Because you are new to OS X I would strongly recommend you bookmark and frequently visit the following web sites:

HI, I am wanting to save a file with data, can some one point me in the right direction to a tut or some thing. Thanks.
OR
if they could be so kind as to code a simple thing that saves a file (txt) with a word. This would make my day,
Thansk and all the best Jonathan :o).I have sorted what I was wanting to do. there was some code missing from the coding as well as the import function.
No you don't have to be 'god' but if some one just handed you a russian/english dictionary you would still have a difficult time making a sentance or even a DVD with every thing there is to know speaking gaelic.
You have to learn more than just the syntax. sorry I'm not the best person in the world for understanding docs etc, but we all have our good points, ask me any thing else on computers and networks I'll give a plain english answer, wood chips and all.
This is all meant in a good tone, there is the problem with txt that it tend to have a dull sound, so cheer up and smile. I know I am.

Need to rescue Garage Band Files with Data Rescue II - what kind of files?
Hi all -
After a particularly gruesome computer crash, I am trying to reconstruct my lost files using Data Rescue II..... This program goes into the damaged hard drive and downloads all intact files it can find, but it is NOT able to label everything correctly. All it can do is divide things into folders - Audio files, document files, images, mail, misc., and movies. And within these folders are other folders - for instance, in the "Audio" rescued folder, there are hundreds of AIFF files, AIFF1 files, AIFF2, MP3, WAV, m4a, and m4p files.
My question is: can someone please tell me what the heck a Garage Band project file is? That would save me a lot of time in digging through all this material trying to find one....
(Don't get me wrong... I'm grateful to have stuff to dig through! I just hope my Garage Band files are intact and recoverable.)
Has anyone had success saving Garage Band files with Data Rescue II?
Thanks in advance.Aaaagh!
I spoke too soon. Yes,I did indeed find the file that contained all the files I needed to retrieve (using Disk Rescue II). When my 6-hour download of the 78 GB folder finished, I check the files again, and they weren't located in the orphaned section, but in the Hard Drive section under the normal directory, in a folder called .Trashes - within that there was another folder called "501", which contained all the Garageband files I needed to retrieve. However, when I tried to open the downloaded "rescued" files, they were inside a folder called "Macintosh HD", which could not be opened, and I got a message that said "Could not be opened because you do not have sufficient access privileges." Not only that, but even after 6 hours of (apparently) downloading the 78 GB folder, my hard drive, which had close to 83 GB of free space, said STILL had almost that same amount.
So did it download anything or not? What was it doing all those 6 hours? I have a file that I can't open, but apparently it's going to be empty anyway.
Here's the full story, for anyone with the patience to listen and offer advice. It looks like now I'm looking for a way to 1) get the permissions to open the .trashes file so that I can download everything, or 2) figure out a way to get Disk Rescue II to open the files and download them regardless of the permissions.
Full Story -
I am pretty sure that my computer crash was caused by working with the newest version of Garageband 08. Ever since buying it and loading it, my computer has been acting funny whenever I use the Garage Band program - I could only record about one in three attempts since the computer kept freezing as soon as I finished recording a line. I would have to use force restart to get going again.
The day the computer crashed, I was working on a Garage Band project, which kept crashing, and I was also using Finale, Microsoft Word, and iTunes -- all of which are my normal procedure and I'd never had any problems with anything before loading the new Garage Band 08. (See my posts on other discussion topics for more details). After the last freeze, the computer crashed totally and could not be restarted - it would get to the gray screen with the spinning gear and just sit there while the fans ramped up to overload.
I used Disk Warrior to rescue whatever files I could onto an external hard drive, and I started to download all the Garage Band files. However, the "estimated time to completion" said over 6 hours , so I stopped the download after a minute or so and went on to rescue all the other files that were smaller in size and easier to download - I figured I'd set Disk Warrior to download the whole 78 GB set of Garage Band files overnight while I slept. But....when I went back to begin the download again, I noticed that the directory of Garage Band files went only to the letter "C" instead of all the way to "Z" like my original files had done during that earlier attempt to download. I am assuming that somehow, the directory for the files I download before aborting the attempt (A-C) got exchanged with the directories of the original version (A-Z), but the original directory was no where to be found.
I decided to try an archive install in the hopes that I could just restart my computer and get the files out by hand. The archive install went fine, and the computer started up fine and got to the log-in screen, which had changed. I now had two blanks - one for user name and one for password, instead of the choices of names. I tried all my user names and passwords, and asked my wife for her names and passcodes, but nothing worked. The computer had apparently re-set all its permissions and User accounts. I tried using Disk Utility to reset the password in its opening screens, but instead of getting several User options, the only one it allowed me to attempt was "System Administrator (root)", and even that wouldn't let me in to change any passwords.
That's when I downloaded Data Rescue II, which does seem to do a good job of locating lost files. However, since I didn't have permissions to open the computer the last time, I am still apparently facing the same thing when I try to access files copies OFF the computer.
So I'm not out of the woods yet. I can see the files on the Data Rescue screen, but I don't know whether they have permissions tied to them or not, and if they do, whether the system would let me since I don't know what the passwords and user names have defaulted back to.
Any advice? Please? -
Choose File Form Data Create Spreadsheet - where is this dialogue?
This is the dialogue I need to use my pdf to generate the spreadsheet so i can add returned forms. However, nowhere can I find;
Choose File>Form Data>Create Spreadsheet from Data Files
This is found in the quick start tutorials in the section entitled "Collecting the data in a spreadsheet" - section number 2
How the heck do I either a) Find it
b) Set up my Adobe software to show it
or c) Create the right file that "encourages" this option to be seen when I open Acrobat (Pro 9).
I am mightily confused and, having looked around the internet, am not alone in this.
Many thanks for any help you can offer folks.

This is a rather important issue, I have seen another post with a similar problem.
While not being a show-stopper it certainly raises concerns.
The application works ok until the application exits (in both development and

Apparently this did not happen with Tux 7.1
It does with 8, I do not have 7.1 so I have no workaround.

Does anyone have problems with data usage with att and Iphone5?
Hello, Does anyone have problems with data usage or non usage I should say with Iphone 5 and AT&T?
After 4+ months of dealing with this data usage and battery drain problem that included 3 data captures of my wife's iMac, the trigger for us regarding the problems syncing with iCloud, and 5 hours of logs off my iPhone 6 to be analyzed by Apple engineers that included times my wife's computer was both on and off to demonstrate the difference in data usage and battery drain under those conditions, I can say with very reasonable certainty that the iOS 8.3 and corresponding Mac OS 10.10.3 update has solved the problem.
We have now been running for about 2 weeks and data usage with the iCloud Servers attempting to sync has dropped from a rate of 31 GBs to under 15 MBs per month. Yes, you read it right. We were burning 2000 times as much data doing absolutely nothing important on both of our phones, a 5s and a 6. Just imagine what that does to battery life! The 5s would last about 5 hours and the 6 was dead in less than 14.
The distasteful aspect of this process was how the engineers were quietly fixing the problem at the same time sending messages to my contact person within Apple that were dismissive in nature in the face of indisputable unreasonable results. I must say, this experience with the multiple times the engineers' responses were inappropriate put a little tarnish on the old Apple shine of the ‘It just works’ mantra. This was my first experience in 34 years that caused me to stop recommending Apple products without reservations and with a disclaimer.
Since the update solved the problem, then I can only conclude that there was a logic bug regarding the reaction within the process to the incoming data that was corrected. There was noting short of logging out of iCloud that circumvented the problem for us, Gator5000e and probably many others noted on other threads. I am not trying to imply that this is the cause of everyones battery use problem, but it is reasonable that it was a cause for many. -

Creating a spool file with date/time appended to file name
In Oracle Sql*Plus, I want to spool out a file, with the date-time stamp as part of the file name. Any idea how to do this?
Here's what I have right now:
SQL>
set serveroutput on size 200000;
rem
rem $OFSA is a UNIX alias so sql plus is talking to UNIX
rem
spool $OFSA/logs/OFSAP/common_coa_id.log;
prompt 'Enter date in mmddyyyy format, without quotes';
exec upd_common_coa_id_driver ('&date_mmddyyyy');
spool off;
As an example, I'd like to have a file with this name: common_coa_id083002.log
Thanks.In SQL*Plus this is what you can do to get the current date/time as part of the spool file:
============================================================================================
SQL> column tm new_value file_time noprint
SQL> select to_char(sysdate, 'YYYYMMDD') tm from dual ;
1 row selected.
SQL> prompt &file_time
20020816
SQL> spool C:\Temp\logfile_id&file_time..log
. /* put your code here */
. /* it will go to a file called C:\Temp\logfile_id20020816.log */

IPhoto problem with "date created" on photos when moving to Ext HD
I'm unable to copy or backup photos from iPhoto onto an external HD w/o iPhoto changing the original date and time information for the photos. I've exported them and dragged them, with different results, but the "date created" changes every time. It changes the date the original photo was taken (which is displayed for each photo in iPhoto), either changing it to the date that I edited the photo or the date that I moved the photo onto the Ext HD. Any solutions?
Thanks for the responses, Larry and Terence.
I understand that there is a difference between the photo date and the file date, and I think I understand what is going on when I try to copy my photos onto my External HD. What I don't understand is why the EXIF data from each photo can't be transferred along with the photo. The only date information that comes with it (via Finder) is the following:
1) If I drag photos into a file I've named and created on my ExtHD, finder changes the "date created" from the date the photo was taken to the date that I moved the photo from my laptop onto my destop Mac, not the date that the photo was taken.
2) If I use the export function to attempt to put photos on my ExtHD, finder changes the "date created" and the "date modified" to the current date and time on every photo. (And who would even want that information?)
What I want is for each photo to display the date and time that I actually TOOK the photo. Is that so hard to do?
Why does Finder switch to some sort of filing date instead of keeping the EXIF data that it seems most people would prefer?
I hate to say this, but when I had a PC this was as easy as pie. No problems, EVER. And now that I have a Mac, my photo library on my ExtHD (where I store my photos for safekeeping -- in addition to Time Machine) is a mess. My folders display the date, but the photos inside each file are incorrectly dated.
Melinda
P.S. I have Mac OS X, Version 10.5.8, and would need the 10.6 version or higher to use the Better Finder app that Terence mentions. Do you think I should update to get that program? Is that program free or do I have to pay for it? Would that solve my problems? -
Creation file with data of sales order header and scheduling
Hi developers,
I must create a file to send a customer with data of VBAP and VBEP.
You have a way fast or a report base for this activity?
Thanks
DomenicoDomenico,
I am not clear over the requirement.
Anyway as per my assumptions over your issue here is what I think.
If you want to create a file on presentation server...then use ws_download. this function module is used downloading data from an internal table to a file.
For application server, use 'open dataset for output'. Do F1 on 'open dataset' and do a 'transfer' from internal table to your file.
TRANSFER source to dsn.
dsn has the file name.

How to read a file with data in Hierarchical Structure using XSD Schema
Hi
We have requirement in which we have to read a FIXED LENGTH file with FILE ADAPTER. File contains the data in hierarchical structure. Hierarchy in the file is identified by the first 3 characters of every line which could be any of these : 000,001,002,003 and 004. Rest files are followed after these. So structure is like:
000 -- Header of File. Will come only once in file. Length of this line is 43 characters
-- 001 -- Sub Header. Child for 000. Can repeat in file. Length of this line is 51 characters
--- 002 -- Detail record. Child for 001. Can repeat multiple times in given 001. Length of this line is 43 characters 1353
-- 003 -- Sub Footer record at same level of 001. Will always come once with 001 record. Child for 000. Length of this line is 48 characters
004 -- Footer of file.At same level of 000. Will come only once in file. Length of this line is 48 characters
Requirement is to create an XSD which should validate this Hierarchical Structure also i.e data should come in this hierarchy only else raise an error while parsing the file.
Now while configuring the FILE ADAPTER to read this file we are using Native Schema UI to create the XSD to parse this structure using an example data file. But we are not able to create a valid XSD for this file which should validate the Hierarchy also on the file.
Pls provide any pointers or solution for this.
Link to download the file, file structure details and XSD that we have created:
