Hi John,
I've just tested the new VM you sent me. The details are below. This is what I see:
1)- 5.8b10 gives exactly the same date/times as 5.8b7
2)- 5.8 (both) seem to show times that are about 1:17 (one hour, seventeen minutes) earlier than the correct one. This doesn't have relation with time zones or daylight savings, it is a constant number of seconds, but not entire hours. May be it is related to the Mac OS version? I'm using MacOS 10.5.8.
3)- 5.8 (both) agree with Macintosh Explorer on when creation time should equal modification time. This is good. I believe that the new API is the correct one, even if still off by 01:17.
4)- 4.2.4 seems to know my time zone (-03:00), 5.8 (both) seem not to know.
5)- Creation time for 4.2.4 seems just wrong. Some times it is the same as modification time (when it shouldnt). Some times it doesn't make sense to me.
I believe you should see similar results on your system, right?
Thanks, Juan Vuletich
Well I think I know what the issue is, Juan can you tell me what timezone and city you have set in the "Date & Time" TimeZone tab in system settings? -- =========================================================================== John M.
