Answer 1

Use this code

  try
    {
      SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
      Date date = format.parse("2014-01-22 13:24:03");
      String newdate = "" + date.getDate() + "." + date.getMonth() + " " + date.getHours() + "." + date.getMinutes(); 
    }
  catch( Exception e) {}

Answer 2

You have a T in your pattern, but not in the date you're trying to parse. Get rid of the T in your pattern and the problem should go away.

From SimpleDateFormat documentation

"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ" --> 2001-07-04T12:08:56.235-0700

Note the T in the pattern matches the corresponding T in the date string being parsed.

It's also a little odd that your pattern includes Kk, as upper and lowercase k have different meanings:

k Hour in day (1-24)

K Hour in am/pm (0-11)

Answer 3

The correct pattern for that date format is: yyyy-MM-dd' 'HH:mm:ss.

Then, in order to format the date the way you need, you can use this pattern: dd.M' 'HH.mm.

Answer 4

Try do it in that way and review your formatting string.:)

String ISO_8601 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH-mm-ss");
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat();
formatter.format(date);
