Wrong today date displayed

Someone can explain me why the date displayed into the banner of my portal pages is "fixed" at one day lost in the past ?? :-)
Thx a lot in advance.

It looks as if you may be assuming that the last-modified date for a folder is the most-recent last-modified time of the files within it. That's not correct. A folder is modified, for example, when a file is added to it. But then the last-modified time of the folder will remain constant if it contains the same files, even if some of the files are modified.

I scanned an old photo but the date displayed is today, I want the date to be the date the photo was taken. How do I change the date of the photo in iPhoto 11?

I scanned an old photo but the date displayed is today, I want the date to be the date the photo was taken. How do I change the date of the photo in iPhoto 11?

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.
When you export from iPhoto to the Finder new file is created containing your Photo (and its Exif). The File date is - quite accurately - reported as the date of Export.
However, the Photo Date doesn't change.
The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif.
So, your photo has the correct date, and so does the file, but they are different things. To sort on the Photo date you'll need to use a photo app.

How to display today date using formcalc

Hi all,
how to display today date using formcalc, eg April 20, 2009?
Thanskks

Num2Date(Date(), "DD/MMM/YYYY", "de_GB")

What's wrong with the display?!

Of my many macs, one is an iMac snow. It still works pretty good, and recently I put in a new harddrive and installed Mac OS X onto it. It's been working perfectly fine for the last few months now. However, just early today the display went bonkers. My little sister was playing a game, and it said that in order to play the game, the colors must be set to 256. So I clicked okay and changed the settings from millions to the settings the game needed. When she was done playing the game, however, the colors were all messed up. I tried restarting the computer first, but that didn't work so I went into the preferences and tried to fix the color there. Still, nothing worked. I don't know what's wrong. The colors are in the negitive. Everything that is supposed to be white is black, everything that's supposed to be black is white, everything that's supposed to be blue is red, and so forth. I can't get it off this negitive effect. Can someone please help me out?! Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Wow... thanks a bunch. That was SOOOO simple. I feel so stupid now. Just one click, and I sooo overpassed it earlier. -_- Agh.
Thanks!!!

If possible can i show todays date on my mac book pro screen?

if possible can i display todays date on my mac book pro's screen

I use my Date&Time in the MenuBar to show day-of-the-week and time with AM/PM, and flashing time separator as a check against system hangs.
If the Calendar application is showing in the Dock, it will display the number of today's date in its Icon. As far as I can tell, you do not need to have EVER run Calendar to have it automatically update its Icon from the default 17 to the current day-number.

Date display bug in Finder, iTunes, menu bar

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, many of the date displays fail to show the actual date and are either blank or only display a time (e.g., 7:32PM, even if it refers to a date in the past).
Here's what it looks like in Finder (these files were NOT added today, i.e. there should be a date other than the present day, but instead it only shows a time): http://tweetphoto.com/5603142
And in iTunes, the Release Date column is suddenly empty, while the Date Added one also shows only a time: http://tweetphoto.com/5603164
Lastly, the Date & Time display in the menu bar (upper right-hand corner) refuses to display the custom format I had specified (which worked fine in Leopard) and only shows it as a greyed-out "option": http://tweetphoto.com/5603193
Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
For the grayed out menu portion go to Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and delete this file, Then, log out and back in.
For the time settings try doing a pram reset try a PRAM reset.
If that's not it try going to Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and delete this file, Then, log out and back in.

PHP MySQL data display problem

I am having trouble getting data to display on my web page.In Dreamweaver CS3, I created a new page.
Selected PHP as the type.
Saved it.
Connected a database and created a recordset (all using Dreamweavers menus. I did not write any code).
NOTE: The database is on a remote server.
The TEST button displayed the records from the recordset with no problem.
On the new page, I then typed some text.
Then dragged some fields from the Bindings tab to the page.
I saved it and then went to preview it in my browser.
The page comes up completely blank. Not even the text shows.
I then saved the page as an HTML page.
When I preview this in my browser, the text shows, but the fields and data do not.
I then tried creating a dynamic table (again, using the Dreamweaver menus.).
A similar thing happens, ie. If I save it as an HTML, the text shows and the column labels and border shows, but no data.
Nothing shows if I save it as a PHP file.
I can view the data online using files created by PHPMagic, so I know the data is there and retrievable.
It is just in pages created in Dreamweaver that don’t work.
What am I doing wrong?

My web server supports PHP. I can disply PHP pages created by other software packages, just not the Dreamweaver ones.

To view php pages - or pages with PHP code in them - in a browser, the page must be served up by a Web server that supports PHP. You can set up a testing server on your local machine for this purpose. Look for WAMP (Windows), MAMP (Mac), or XXAMP for some easily installed packages.

Todays date plus a set number of days

I know I'm just having a brain fart here, this has got to be
easier than I'm making it.
Essentially, I have a variable bit of text that I need to
display todays date + 10 days.
Getting todays date and formatting it are simple I know:
var today_date:Date = new Date();
// place date into US date format
var date_str:String =
(today_date.getMonth()+1)+"/"+(today_date.getDate()+"/"+today_date.getFullYear());
// display current date
trace(date_str);
The problem lies in making todays date plus 10 days..... any
ideas anyone?
~Chuck Moulton

Do your date additions with the Date object then extract the
data to do the formatting afterwards...
var today:Date = new Date();
trace(today); //today
var addAWeek:Number =7; //days
today.setDate(today.getDate()+addAWeek)
trace(today); //its not today anymore its a week from today
//extract the portions and format now

Wrong Percent Data In the table

Our customers require us to demonstrate one report involving Year, Quarter,Month, Sales,SalesPercent through the table style.So we encount the issue that we do not know how to show the data in the table. We have one method to solve it,but there it a little problem as below detail information.
In the SalesPercent formula,we write the code "sales/sum(sales by Year,Quarter)" manually and order by YEAR,Quarter. but the YearTotalPercent is incorrect.
For example
Year Quarter Month Sales Percent
2009 2009/Q1 2009/1 300 30%
2009 2009/Q1 2009/2 300 30%
2009 2009/Q1 2009/3 400 40%
--------Total-------------1000 100%
2009 2009/Q2 2009/4 200 20%
2009 2009/Q2 2009/5 200 20%
2009 2009/Q2 2009/6 600 60%
--------Total-------------1000 100%
Total---------------------2000 wrong data(excepted data is 100%)
I do not know why it generate the wrong the data.If you know the method for solving the issue or how to implement the requirement in table view,please tell me. Thanks

Yeah,Before I try to use the pivot table,but to some case, it does not display all percent values that some percent columns are empty.So I use the handcode formula in the table view to solve the requirement.
For example:
Year Quarter Month Sales Percent
2009 2009/Q1 2009/1 300 30%
2009 2009/Q1 2009/2 300 30%
2009 2009/Q1 2009/3 400 40%
--------Total-------------1000 100%
2009 2009/Q2 2009/4 200 (NULL)
2009 2009/Q2 2009/5 200 (NULL)
2009 2009/Q2 2009/6 600 (NULL)
--------Total-------------1000 (NULL)
Total---------------------2000 100%

Date display language

Hi,
I've got a problem on one of G4s at my work. It's the MDD 1.25 version running MacOS 9.2.2 (International English). It was not me to install the software but the original person isn't available at the moment. The problem is I can't change the date display (date modified, date created) in any window - to English. The date is written in Spanish which is uncomfortable for me (there is one excerpt - 'Today' and 'Yesterday' is written in English!). What modification should I do to achieve my desired results? Do I have to put something in the System suitcase? Do I have to remove anything from it? I know sometimes you have to boot from another partition to see all the things in the suitcase. Thanks for your answer in advance.

Oh my! Such simple... Shame on me Thanks Don! I almost exchanged the whole system suitcase from a working G4, scripts, fonts - no! Even calling police wouldn't help

Create recordset join, date = todays date

hi,
i have been trying to create a recordset on my page which joins my clients table to insurance table which is fine.
however i need to be able to show on my page due date = today's date.
so in my insurance table i have a duedate column with data type DATE
i need my recordset query to return duedate=todays date and also show if passed due date?
can anyone help me write this query?
many thanks

thanks bregent, the database was helped setup viaa posts on mysql forum and by my understanding of mysql of learning over past year or so.
i have queried using just a simple join statement.
thanks

To query against more than one table using standard SQL you could use a UNION query. MySQL also has functionality to query against multiple tables but I don't use MySQL. But I need to ask why you are storing these due dates in more than one table? Who designed this database?
>also need to display the ones due the week leading up to due date?

This is all just simple date math. Please use the reference I gave earlier for examples or search the web for MySQL date math.

Events all have todays date

I've just imported a years worth of movies off our video camera. On the import options I clicked split events into days. iMovie has done this - grouped movies from the same day into its own event folder. BUT every event has todays date! Surely iMovie can automatically name the events with the days date (in the Event Library panel)??
On our old Mac running iMovie 08 the date of the event was shown in small text under the name of the event (in the Event Library panel). So at least we could see the days date even though the event names were all the same. But in iMovie 11 the date isn't shown. Is there a way to show the date?
Thank you

Hi
Sorry there has been a misunderstanding.
When importing video into iMovie one of the options is to split days into seperate events. This is what I've done and iMovie has split my movie clips into 157 seperate days, which is great. But in the left hand panel, called 'Event Library' all my 157 events have the same name which isn't great and worse in iMovie 11 the date of the event isn't displayed under the events name (in iMovie 08 it didn't matter too much that my events all had the same name, because the date of the event / clip was displayed under the events name).
My questions are:
- is it possible in iMovie 11 to display the date underneath the events name in the Event Library panel (like in iMovie 08)?
- is it possible to import video and split days into separate events and for the events to be automatically named with the date of the day they were taken?
Thanks for any help

Finder date display- Yosemite

My Macbook Pro has been having slowness problems, and I just noticed some folders have unusual date displays: 2014 M04 17:50.
I have never seen the M, which must mean month before yesterday. Anybody have some light to shine on this?
I have run MacScan for tracking cookies and spyware- found 2 Safari tracking cookies, but nothing else. Also ran Adwaremedic- nothing found.

Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.
It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, defend against such attacks.
The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't been checked for security by Apple unless it comes from the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
Software from an untrustworthy source
☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
Unexpected events
☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

Data display grid font selection

Does anyone know how to change the font that's used on the "Data" tab when displaying the content of rows in a table?
I'm trying to view chinese characters which are stored in UTF-8 unicode in the database. I have all the necessary fonts loaded on my machine and the correct NLS_LANG settings.
I can see western characters, arabic, russian, greek OK in the data-grid, but not chinese or other far-eastern languages. Instead I see little squares instead of the symbols.
I've checked for font setting in Tools -> Preferences but the only setting I can find is under the "Code Editor" section. This is set correctly (to Arial Unicode MS) and if I copy the "little squares" from the data grid and paste them into a code-edit tab I see the characters correctly displayed.
So it seems that the "Font" setting for the code-edit tabs isn't used by the data-display tabs.
Is there a way of making both code-editor window and data-display tab use the same font?

i would create a standard report.
i presume the air pressure and humidity are from one field? if not create a formula to display that.
create groups
1- a/p humidity field or formula
2- time
3- ref-measure- error
not sure if they are the same field or different.
you can then place your data in the groups (formulas calcs etc)
then underlay the groups so they appear on the same line
then draw boxes around them.
hope this helps

My Apple ID was changed. Yet when I try to update apps I am asked to enter the password for the old IG which will not work and no matter what I do. When I attempt to update apps it still askes for the wrong ID data.

My Apple ID was changed. It works fine on my IPad mini, my MAc and in Itunes Store, Yet when I try to update apps on my IPAD 1 I am asked to enter a password for the old ID user name which appears in the pop up window. When It still askes for the wrong ID data. I have uodated it in settings, and I have logged ontht the account to verify that it still works properly and it does. I reboot the IPAD and then attempt to update apps again but it still asked for the Old ID password and still shows the old ID username. The dame thing refuses to recognize my new Apple ID data. This is making my older IPAD unuseable.

You cannot change your Apple ID. You can get a new one if you want, but all of your Apps and media are linked to yoru old Apple ID. And no, Apple won't transfer your old ID purchases to yoru new ID.
