Adjusting Capture Time doesn't allow me to changes seconds? HELP!!!
« on: December 10, 2011, 08:14:22 AM »
I am using a new iMac with Snow Leopard and the latest update of PhotoMechanic (ver 4.6.8)

When I go to "TOOLS" and "Adjust Capture Dates and Times" I can change the date, hour and minute but not the seconds! (which is pretty important).

My wife can do this on her laptop and desktop (one with Mac OS LION, the other with Mac OS LEOPARD).

Here is a screen shot from my Mac:


Here is what my wife's photomechnic shows in the same tool function:

You've probably adjusted your Date and Time settings in the System Preferences on your computer to not show seconds.  Change the System Preference and this should solve the issue.

OK, I just tried changing the system time settings, but that makes no difference. When I restart PM, the time/date adjustment still only shows Hours/Minutes only.

Try editing the 'Language & Text' settings:

I think that may have worked. Though it wan't the "customize" setting for Times... but I choose United Stated as the Region in the top drop-down box. Now it seems to allow seconds in the Date/Time Adjustment dialog. Thanks!

This is the Language & Text setting box:



The final result in Photo Mechanic now. Thanks!
