Edit capture time doesn't work for multiple images

Hi all, hope you can help me.
I'm trying to edit capture time for multiple images. I select the images using the grid view, and go to Metadata>Edit Capture Time>Adjust to Specified Date and Time, enter the time, and select "change all." However, it seems that some, or perhaps most of the images don't actually have a new Date Created when this process is done.
I thought perhaps I needed to select 'write metadata to files', but the Date Created seems to revert back prior to writing to the file, or indeed, it doesn't actually change in the first place.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
J

Think I've fixed this using the following site: -

Will update if that changes....

  • [BUG] Sort - Capture Time doesn't work, movies?

    I found a strange bug: when set on Capture Time order, all my Nikon D300 photos are correctly sorted, however some movies I took with an old Canon bridge camera are placed in the wrong spot.
    As you can see from the date and hours, they are presented before where they should be.

    This is a symptom of a more general issue: LR 3's handling of video metadata is incomplete and inconsistent with the way it handles photo metadata.
    With photos, LR reads and writes metadata either from the photo directly or a sidecar.  Even if the photo is missing all metadata, you can still edit it in LR and write it back to the photo (or its sidecar).  In particular, you can edit Metadata > Edit Capture Time and then write it back to the photo.
    But with videos, although LR reads metadata from .thm sidecars, it never writes it back to the sidecars -- the Metadata > Save Metadata To File fails silently.  You can edit all the metadata (e.g. caption, rating, keywords) in the catalog except Capture Time.
    If you import a photo that's missing the metadata field DateTimeOriginal (aka Capture Time), LR uses the file's creation date as the date that appears above the thumbnail, and the thumbnail will sort properly by Capture Time with respect to other thumbnails. (Note that the date above the thumbnail and Capture Time are two different catalog fields -- a photo can have a thumbnail date but no Capture Time.)
    Similarly, if you import a video that's missing DateTimeOriginal, LR uses the video file's creation date as the date above the thumbnail.  But unlike with photos, it does not sort properly by Capture Time with respect to other thumbnails (and LR won't let you invoke Metadata > Edit Capture Time to fix the problem).   This is the particular symptom you've observed.
    As an aside, it would be better if LR used a file's Date Modified rather than Date Created as the default "thumbnail time" and capture time.  Windows preserves Date Modified if you copy a file, whereas Date Created gets changed to the current time.   So if your camera doesn't produce video sidecars, and you copy the video file in Windows before importing it, LR won't get the correct date the video was taken.
    A workaround to this problem is to create manually a .thm sidecar file for your video with the right DateTimeOriginal before importing it.  Create a .jpg file with the same base name as your video and use LR or another tool to set its DateTimeOriginal metadata field. Then change the file's extension to .thm.  Finally, import the video file into LR, and it will pick up the DateTimeOriginal from the .thm.
    This mess with video metadata is a good reason to keep using the third-party plugin in LR 3 to manage video files.

  • HELP! edit capture time isn't working!

    I'm trying to adjust a bunch of image capture times from my second shooter to match my image capture time.  I have done this many times, and now it seems it won't work.  I can only do one at a time now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thats how I'm doing it.  I select all the images i need changed.  Make sure I'm in Library mode. Then click metadata up above then edit capture time.  It use to allow me to change all.  Now it only lets me change one.  So frustrated! I can't seem to find anything online as to why this is. {unless I am doing it all wrong somehow}  John R. Ellis

  • Sort by Capture Time doesn't work with Flags

    Hi all, I hope someone can help me with this. Whenever I flag photos and close and reopen LR, all of the flagged photos go to the end of the series even if I have Sort By Capture Time selected. Is this a bug, or am I missing something?

  • Recolor Image not working for multiple images

    I applied themeing and created a Themeing file under Style Lib -> en-us->Themable->spriteTheming.css
    spriteTheming.css is for recoloring image but it is only recoloring spcommon and none other files.
    spriteTheming.css looks like below:
    /* [RecolorImage(themeColor:"ContentAccent7",method:"Tinting")] */
    background-image: url("/_layouts/15/images/spcommon.png?rev=23");
    /* [RecolorImage(themeColor:"ContentAccent7",method:"Tinting")] */
    background-image: url("/_layouts/15/1033/images/spstd2.gif");
    /* [RecolorImage(themeColor:"ContentAccent7",method:"Tinting")] */
    background-image: url("/_layouts/15/images/SharePointFoundation16.png?rev=23");
    /* [RecolorImage(themeColor:"ContentAccent4",method:"Tinting")] */
    background-image: url("/_layouts/15/1033/images/formatmap32x32.png?rev=23");
    this only changes the color of spcommon.png but none of the other images gets the tint, anything I am doing wrong in this file?
    I published it, changed the look but still it does not change anyting.
    It creates the file here:
    _catalogs/theme/Themed/
    but does not display on browser
    I refer to this spriteTheming.css in master page as
    <!--MS:<SharePoint:CssRegistration Name="/Style Library/en-us/Themable/spriteTheming.css" EnableCssTheming="true" After="corev15.css" runat="server">-->
    <!--ME:</SharePoint:CssRegistration>-->
    Any help is appreciated....

  • Applying rules manually doesn't work for multiple messages

    I've been using Mail for some time now and love rules. Love 'em. A few months ago I started having touble and have not been able to figure it out.
    The rules get applied to new incoming messages properly, as they should. However, I used to be able to select all the messages in my inbox (Command + A) and then 'Apply Rules' (Option + Command + L). That command no longer works. It still works if I go and select a bunch of eBay-related e-mails, for example, and then Apply Rules. Those message are moved accordingly. But if I select all message and Apply Rules, those same 4 or 5 messages remain put in the inbox even though there's a perfectly functioning rule for them that should be applied.
    NOTE: NONE of my rules work when I select all and Apply Rules.
    Any suggestions?

    The reason there are messages in my inbox to which rules haven't been applied is because when I'm at work I check my mail via the web (I use FastMail.fm). At home, using Mail, I access my mail via IMAP. When I receive and read new messages via the web and then go home and open Mail, all the messages in my inbox are no longer new, incoming messages so Mail doesn't process them as such. But just because they're not new incoming messages doesn't mean they belong in my inbox.
    Does that make sense?
    Most of the rules are to Move messages to folders based on categories (Shopping, Forums, Hosting, etc.).

  • VS2013 edit-and-continue doesn't work for 32-bit (error 1006)

    Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013, Version 12.0.30501.00 Update 2, is running under 64-bit Win7. App is 32-bit debug build, C++ (native).
    When at a breakpoint, if I change the source code and continue, I get a message
    Edit and Continue : error 1006 : A global or static variable was added, renamed, removed, or changed data type or initialization: ___ImageBase (referenced by: c:\MyProgram\debug\MySource.obj)
    This occurs no matter what the change. In the example above, I added 1 character to the end of a comment line.
    Both edit-and-continue and native edit and continue are enabled (screen shot below).

    Hi VoiceOfExperience,
    Maybe you could share us a simple sample, so we could test in the same Environment.
    After you enable the edit and continue, please restart your VS, test it again.
    In addition, you know that there are some limitations for VC++ with it.
    See:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0dbey757.aspx , so we could make sure that it doesn't go against thses rules.
    Maybe you could test it in other VS machine, if we make sure that it really meets the requirements as the above link, but it still has this issue, maybe you could submit a report here:http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/CreateFeedback.aspx,
    you'd better share a simple sample in your report, so it would be helpful for the product team expert to repro/troubleshoot this issue.

  • Ios 8 bug: keychain autofill doesn't work for multiple accounts on the same website

    WIth the IOS 8 update I have an issue. I have, for my job, to check several and different accesses on the same website. The autofill function is now proposing just the last entered user-password, even if all the credentials are regularly stored in the keychain. Same behavior on my ipad air and my iphone.
    Has anyone the same problem?
    THanks in advance for your help

    An update. If I:
    Enroll a Windows Surface using a local admin account
    Request to install an app from a local standard account it appears stuck on Installing...
    Log back in as the local admin account and wait, the app appears.
    Questions:
    Can the same app be installed into multiple local accounts on the same device? It doesn't look like it.
    Is the local account used when the device is enrolled the only local account that will install Intune apps?

  • JRE 1.4 autoupdate doesn't work for multiple users

    In trying to simulate an environment where most users don't have administrative rights I tried this little test.
    Install Webstart with JRE 1.3.1 or whatever
    Have my app look for 1.4 in the JNLP file
    I installed webstart and had it run the autoupdate, like it should, while logged in as an admin. when I then logged in as a standard user, i get this error popup
    Bad installation. Error invoking Java VM (SysExec)
    c:\Program Files\Java Web Start\.javaws\cache\.ext\E1022773239667\bin\\javaw.exe
    Anyone have any ideas? It works fine under the admin account, but this under user account.
    Matt

    It is possible to install a 1.4.0 JRE (which will also install JWS) as normal user without admin rights, but with enough rights to install apps on his disk.
    However I don't know what happens, if several users on the same machine do this.
    Will they end up with k individual installations or will there be some interference?
    Among the information that leaked on the next Java version 1.4.1, which includes a new JWS version 1.0.2, it was told that it will be made multi user capable.

  • Gmail app doesn't work for multiple accounts???

    I just got an iphone5 and I'm super bummed to find out that the Gmail app does not allow you to switch between two accounts, as it does on my Android phone.
    What do people use to get around this?

    I had the same problem none of that works...
    This is what I did:
    Using the adm profile, go to the windows folder, find the
    regedit icon, open it, then scroll all the way down until you find
    the shockwave files. Right click on each and the click on
    permissions, give each user persmission and do it for all the
    shockwave flash floders you see, it should be about 9.
    good luck.
    need help call me 305 228 7574, EST until 10pm.

  • Metatags for multiple images?

    I thought this was a no-brainer, but... apparently not:
    I needed to add a keyword to several pictures, so I selected them all (from a very large set), clicked the Metadata pane, and entered my keyword, and hit return.
    But it didn't stick.
    So I tried to add the keyword to ONE image, and realized that "return" didn't "enter" the keyword, only put an actually paragraph return in the keyword field. Weird, but okay.
    I then tried entering it for one image, and hitting "tab". Which made the keyword "stick".
    So, I went and selected ALL my images again (very arduous and time consuming), and then entered my keyword, and hit "tab".
    But it only assigned that keyword to the FIRST image of all the images I had selected.
    I ended up having to do "lift/stamp" and choose only "keyword" from the menu. But, am I crazy, or should the way I initially tried to do this work? I mean, it's pretty common sense, right? Select multiple images, enter keyword, and done?
    Hmmmm.
    Is there a better way to do this?

    Hi Jimbo
    The User Manual (available directly within Aperture Help, or online) has at least two mechanisms which will address your question: the +Control Bar+ and +Batch Changes+.
    The Aperture Interface > Control Bar
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/#chapter=2%26section=7
    Working with Metadata > Batch Changing Metadata
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/#chapter=11%26section=7
    I've been using both of these techniques, so I know they definitely work for multiple images.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Gary

    Turn it on.
    Honestly, if you want help it is generally a good idea to ask a specific question and give some details of what problem is occurring.
    If trying to move media, using home sharing is simply a bad idea.  Follow some of the other instructions in the article from which the question was posted to move media.

  • Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times

    Time Capsule only works for one device at a time, how to make it capable to be used for multiple devices at times.
    Please help to set it up, thanks in advance

    You need to give more info..
    Firstly only works for what.. networking.. backup.. wireless. You need more nouns.. more adjectives... describe what you want and what fails.. then we can figure out why.
    Most likely you have bridged it when it should be in router mode..
    Most likely you are using Lion or ML which has the airport utility bridge the TC by default.
    Change it to working as a router. That might help.
    If you press reset button it will default back to router btw.
    If you are on Lion.. use a real utility. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1547

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
