Change the date on a photo?

Does anyone know how to change the date on a photo?  When someone sends me an old pic in a text and I save it, it automatically uses today's date.  Also, how do you update camera pics save on the phone taken on a camera with the wrong date and time?  It drives me nuts when the pictures taken on the same day and event don't show up together.  Thanks in advance for your help!

  • I can't change the date on my photos. i click on adjust change and date and it does not give me the earliest date to change

    I can't change the date on my photos in events. I click on adjust date and time of selected photos and the date that I can edit is the oldest photo date and not the earliest. Help?

    iPhoto should be showing you the date of the first photo you selected.
    What do you want to achieve? It should not matter, which photo you select to adjust the time, because all photos will be corrected by the same fixed increment, if you use "Adjust Date and Time".
    If you want to set all photos to the same time, use "Photos > Batch Change > Set Date to" instead.

  • Using Aobe Photoshop Elements 6:  1.  How to download photos in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them?  2.  Changing the date on each photo

    Using Adobe Photoshop Elements 6:
    1.  How can I get the 2000 photos I downloaded in the same order as on the smart card from which I downloaded them?  (This will help me label them correctly)
    2.  How can I change the date on each photo? (I want to sort by date the picture was taken, not the date it was downloaded.
    Thank you!

    You indicated that the images "seemed" to be in the right order.  It might be a good idea to rename the images on export using a custom name/sequence.  If you have done that and the images are still not in order, it's possible that your operating system browsing window is using a different sort order.  I sometimes change windows explorer to sort by file type, and then files are sometimes in what seems be a strange order.

  • How do I change the date of a photo in iPhoto?

    I need to change the date of when the pic was taken because it is wrong what do I need to do?

    Depends
    The general answer is the batch change ==> data and time command which changes a photo or group of photos to a specific date/time with an option to add a fixed increment to the time on multiple photos
    But if you have a special situation like a camera with an incorrect date/time then you use the adjust time and date command

  • Changing the date on a photo?

    So I have this album from a trip that has, oh, 600 photos in it. What I didn't realize at the time was that the imprint date on the camera was like 2 1/2 years off. For proper organization, I'd like to change the dates on all the photos.
    Is there a way to change the dates on batches of photos, or do I have to go through and do it manually one by one?

    Select the photo you want to change and go to the Photos->Batch Change menu option and select Date in the next windows menu.

  • Can i change the dates of my photo's?

    Hello, I took some photo's with my pentax camera but didn't notice that it had the wrong date on them. Which meant that when i imported into iphoto it shows them in the worng chronological order.
    Is there any way i can change the date on the photo's???

    Hi there,
    You should be able to change the date in the source column (left column, bottom). I've done this and seems to work. It does rearrange items as dates are changed both in the library and in the iPhoto folders...
    BTW - I use 'Film Rolls' view...
    Good luck, Rick

  • Can you change the date stamps on photos on iPad3?

    When I add photos from my digital camera, any photos that have been edited on my camera show on my iPad with the wrong date even though on my camera the date stamp is correct. It's very strange, is there anyway to change the date of photos once on your iPad so that they show in the right album when viewing photos on the events tab. Thanks in advance for any reply x

    I've posted this in another query of mine regarding keeping a separate bootpd log file. Two birds, one stone.
    syslog -u -E safe -k Sender bootpd -k Time ge -24h > DHCPday.log
    cat DHCP.log DHCPday.log> DHCPtemp.log
    cp DHCPtemp.log DHCP.log
    The -u switch on syslog causes it to output the timestamp in UTC, thus it includes the year. By incorporating this script as a cron job, the server is now keeping a growing record of DHCP allocations with a full datetime stamp for later processing.

  • How can I change the dates on many photos with a fix time of say 20s?

    Before it was possible to change the date on many pictures scanned by adddind a fix increlental of time.
    How can I now change the dates on many pictures taht I have renumbered to keep the same incremental?

    The seconds:
    I just remembered - the time increment is set in Apple Script in seconds -  the variable  "minutes" is just a name for the value "60" and "hours" for "3600". Since "seconds" would have the value "1", there is no predefined constant "seconds".
    If you want an increment of 30 seconds, simply write
    set timeIncrement to 30
    For example
    on run {input, parameters}
      (* copyright leonieDF *)
              set timeIncrement to (1 * hours) + (2 * minutes) + 30
      (* select at least 2 images in Aperture *)
              tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                        set imageSel to (get selection)
                        if imageSel is {} then
                                  error "Please select an image."
                        else
                                  tell (item 1 of imageSel)
                                            set imageDate to value of EXIF tag "ImageDate"
      --set imageDate to get the value of EXIF tag "ImageDate"
                                  end tell
                                  repeat with i from 2 to count of imageSel
                                            set imageDate to imageDate + timeIncrement
      adjust image date imageDate of images {item i of imageSel}
                                  end repeat
                        end if
                        return imageSel
              end tell
    end run

  • How do I change the date of a photo in A3's metadata tab?

    I click on a photo and realize the date of the photo is wrong. What do I need to do to change it?

  • Changing the date on photos in Iphoto.

    How can you change the date on your photos without iphoto creating a "range" between the wrong date and the updated "new" date?  I just want ONE correct date on my photos but when I alter the info under edit and i - it creates a "range" date like 1/2009-7/2011 and i just want 7/2011. 

    If you want all of the photos to have the same date with maybe 1 or 5 seconds between them use the File ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option.

  • How can I change the date old photos were taken when I only know the year?

    I've scanned lots of old photos and I want to change the date to reflect when they were taken. In some cases I only know the year and I don't want inaccurate information to be assigned by the software. How can I do this?

    Actually a specific wrong date is no more inaccurate than a year with no more info - neither is correct, just incorrect in different ways
    the software de not ever assign a date to a photo - you do o your camera does
    iPhoto has no provision for an approximate date do you have to leave them undated in the EXIF fields and use a description field or pick a date to use for unknown - 1/1/xxxx is one suggestion

  • How can I change the date or location of multiple photos in Photos OSX?

    In iPhoto it was easy to change the date, description, title or even the location of a bunch of photos at the same time, is it possible to make it in the new Photos App?

    It's possible to adjust the date and time, and pretty much the same way as in iPhoto. For the others, search the Photos forum, folks have posted Applescripts that will help.

  • How do I *REALLY* change the date on photos?

    I'm having trouble with this, and I'm sure there has to be a fix.
    Let's say I took a group of photos last week. But oops, I forgot to set the date and time on my camera. So when I import the photos, iPhoto places them under April 2004 instead of June 2007.
    No problem. I select all the photos, do a batch change on the date, and they now "appear" to be taken in June 2007.
    But they weren't really changed. If you view the info for the photos, you'll see that they are still marked as April 2004 for the original date.
    So basically iPhoto has set-up some type of filter to show the photos in 2007, even though the computer still believes they are from 2004.
    This became a big problem when I imported my library to my new Mac. Perhaps I did something incorrectly, but I had quite a few imported photos that reverted back to their Original date, instead of the fake one I had set up in iPhoto. So my Library was a mess and I had to re-organize my collection.
    This problem would be avoided if iPhoto really and truly changed the date timestamp on my pictures, as I asked.
    I've downloaded several programs that offer photo meta editing. None of them did the job. They just changed the photo "Date Modified" to be June 2007. But if you look at their properties, they still show 2004 as the Original Date.
    Mac OS X is a very smart system. Surely there is some way to truly force change the dates on photos. Afterall, they are just data in themselves. I can't imagine there isn't a way.
    Can you help? Is there a work-around in iPhoto or OSX, or a separate program I can download?
    Thanks!

    Jon:
    Dragging the thumbnails to the desktop and exporting are essentially the same process, producing copies of the full sized image file. Exporting gives you other options, however. Once you get the photos out of iPhoto you can run PhotoInfo on them and then import as new files. iPhoto will see those new files with the correct date. If you try running PhotoInfo on files already in iPhoto, you can change the EXIF Capture Date in the file but iPhoto won't recognize the changes.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    Recently I noticed that when I change the name of a photo (correcting a mistake) it always goes back to the previous name, keeping the mistake I'm trying to correct. A spelling mistake, for example. As I keep my photos organized by name and not by date, this is very annoying.
    And today it won't even read my camera's sd card, and I try with 2 different ones. If I restart the computer, leaving the memory card in, then it reads it; but if I pull it out and push it back in it doesn't see it. Whath am I doing wrong, if anything?

    Where/how are you trying to change the name? If it is in Finder (after you've downloaded the pics to your desktop), highlight the pic icon and press Return. the name field will change and you can type in your new name. Hit Return again. That should make it "stick".  If you're trying to do it elsewhere, please post the steps that you've tried.
    As for your card: do you eject it properly? Either drag icon to trash or hit the eject symbol in the sidebar?
