Events has incorrect date range even though photos have been correctly adjusted

I'm using iPhoto '11 (9.1.2) and have imported a bunch of old photos that had incorrect exif data, presumably from the camera having the wrong date set at the time.  For example I have an event called "Christmas 08" which contained photos dated from 4-6 Dec 2028; which I've since deduced were actually taken 4-6 Jan 2008.  Knowing that iPhoto can correct this sort of error I used the Photos > Adjust date and time menu option to take over 7200 days off the images and overwrite the originals into the bargain.  Initially the results looked good - all the photos from the 26 affected events now show the correct date information in the info panel and when one of the events is selected the date range shown in the info panel reflects the new date range of the photos within it. 
Weirdly though, the dates shown underneath the event are still the 2028 dates and the event is still ordered chronologically after my recent 2011 photos - consequently these events are considered "within the last 12 months" by iTunes even though the photos are all correctly identified as around 2.5 years old. Presumably this will mean that these events are set float at the top of my events list and plague me for the next 17 years unless this gets fixed.
What should I be doing to make iPhoto do the right thing?
Thanks,
Rob

This has been reported several times in iPhoto '11 version 9.1.2 - it appears to be a bug - the only reported workaround that has been posted is to correct the dates on the photos and create a new event with them - try flagging all of the photos in the bad event after the dates are correct and then create a new event from the flagged photos
You can search the forums to see the other discussions
I would expect a correction in a future upgrade

  • External hard drive has no available space even though i have deleted nearly everything on there

    I have an external hard drive for backups and it has no available space even though i have deleted nearly everything on there. Where is the space?

    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.

    after serval months of rebuidling and creating new identites for Outlook for mac2010 any reasons why this is constantly happening?

    I am not sure what you mean by this.
    is it ok to delete outlook ID's copy/backup as running out of space?
    If you mean you have several identities in the Office Identities folder then yes. You can delete whatever you don need\want except for your current.
    Are you updated to the latest version of Office?
    After the restore, navigate to ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/your identity and delete the file called Database. Then rebuild.
    This may help:

  • Printer not present when trying to connect even though drivers have been installed

    printer not present when trying to connect even though drivers have been installed

    Hi Marc,
    If you are having issues with printing from your iMac I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
    Mac 101: Printing (Mac OS X v10.6)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3771
    Specifically -
    Troubleshooting steps you can use if there is an issue
    Ensure the printer is connected, has power, has ink / toner, paper, and no alerts on its built-in display.
    Network based printers should be on the same subnet; you shouldn't have to worry about this if your printer is on your home network.
    Use Software Update for the latest available updates.
    Delete the affected printer from Printer & Fax System Preferences, then re-add the printer.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system (see below). Then, add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers from here. Then, add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Brett L

  • HT203167 I cannot sync my iPad or iPhone to iTunes on my Windows 8 PC, even though I have been doing this successfully for years. I have been through all the troubleshooting steps I can find in iTunes, to no avail. Help please?

    I cannot sync my iPad or iPhone to iTunes on my Windows 8 PC, even though I have been doing this successfully for years. I have been through all the troubleshooting steps I can find in iTunes, to no avail. Help please?

    I seem to be having the same problem on my Windows 8 laptop... I am able to update my iPod Nano through iTunes but my iPhone is not recognized as a device in iTunes. Have been able to update my iPad until recently. Is this a bug fix that Apple can help with? I'd rather not uninstall all my Apple programs if I can avoid it...

  • I have an issue with my 3G connection: my iphone can't connect anymore to the data network even though I have a contract with unlimited internet access and the date/3G is turned ON. Anyone knows this problem ?

    Hi guys,
    This problem showed up a few days ago. Even though I have turned on the 3G and the cellular data, my phone tells me there is actually no connection. But the network indicators shows a maximum network. I went to the genius bar and they fixed it by restoring the phone and it started working again. Then I restored it at home with my back up. Today, it started again: network issue. And the problem does not come from the network (I have tried my sim on another iphone with the same carrier). It really does come from the device.
    Any ideas ?
    Many thanks

    Hello

    Yes it saves,

  • Users stills appear to have transactions assigned even though roles have been removed.

    Hi,
    I'm currently looking at a number of users with access to sensitive transactions (e.g. SCC4).
    When looking at a combination of the AGR_ROLES and AGR_TCODES tables I can see there is currently only one active role and one active user assigned this access which would fall in line with what was to be expected based on the population I am looking at (we're not concentrating on auth object level for now).
    However when I go through SUIM and filter on users by complex criteria and enter transaction code SCC4, about 20-30 users pop up (this is how many people used to be assigned access to SCC4).
    When access was removed for these 20-30 users, it was done at 'role level' so my question is, even if roles have been removed, when looking through SUIM would a user still appear to have transactions associated with that role assigned - if so, why does this happen? I assumed once a role is removed it would removed the underlying transactions etc with it?
    My assumption at the moment is that even though SUIM is showing users still have access to SCC4 they can't actually use it as the role it was associated with has been removed.
    Any help/clarity on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Johnny,
    Please do perform the User comparison.
    Goto PFCG  -> Role Name -> user comparision
    then check in SUIM still user is having that Tcode or not .
    for detail
    Go to SUIM
    Roles by complex selection criteria -> put Tcode there
    it will give you Roles name having that tcode . and then you go to that Role and you will get list of Users in PFCG (User assignment Tab) .
    same goes with User
    SUIM - Users  by complex selection criteria - > put tcode -> Profiles associated with - > roles assosiated with it .
    But i suggest after you make any changes to Role / Profile you please do user comparision .

  • I do not qualify for the Verizon edge plan, even though I have been customer ever since they bought Alltel. Has anyone else had this problem.

    Today I went to the Verizon store to upgrade my girlfriends phone which is on my account b/c I wanted to use the edge plan to buy the iPhone 5c. I had read in several different places that I could upgrade using edge and not loose my unlimited data, turns out I was misinformed, which the guy at the store told me after he had my information pulled up using my cell number. I told the guy I was not willing to give up my unlimited plan AND pay full price for the phone, I thanked him for his time and we left. When we left the store I called the Verizon number that is given on the website and told them I was interested in the edge plan for the 5c and asked for more information, ( I thought the guy at the store was wrong and I was checking). The woman I talked.......long story short, I talked to 8 people including 2 managers and none of them could tell me why I did not qualify for the edge financing (even if switching the plan), SO I was hoping someone on here might could help. I have been a customer since Verizon bought out Alltel, I have automatic payments set up with no late payments for as long as I can remember, and was eligible for an upgrade on 01/03/2013. Any experience or advice in this area would be appreciated.
    Thank You!

    Here is my advice, at least. Not sure if anyone will agree, but it is my take on the problem.
    With the Edge program, there is a "possibility" that someone will pay full price for a phone. This is not always the case, though. IF you do not complete ALL of the 24 months of payments, then you WILL NOT have paid full price for the phone, but simply a portion of the full price. THAT is why it does not make the plan "eligible" to keep your unlimited data. With the Edge plan, technically you only have to pay 50% of the full price before you can trade it in for another phone on the Edge plan. The way the plan is designed, the majority of people WILL NOT ever pay full price for the phone, but only a portion of the full price before they exchange their phone for a new device. That is what Verizon is hoping for, at least.
    As Ann154 has pointed out, you can use the Device Payment Plan and keep your unlimited data. At no time during your contract can you trade THAT phone in to get another phone. You would have to continue making the payments on THAT phone along with any other phone you upgraded to. THAT is the difference between the 2 plans. You WILL end up paying full price for the phone on the Device Payment Plan, where you can STOP making payments on a phone with the Edge Plan if you turn it in for another device.
    Good luck.

  • I can no longer receive me emails from my .mac account on my iMac even though I have been able to receive it for the past number of years, I have an iCloud account and it is sending my mail to my phone but not my desktop. What gives...

    I can no longer receive my emails from the icloud to my mac even though it has been doing it fine since I moved to the icloud a number of weeks now. I only get my mail if I log into icloud or I get it on my phone, it is not synching to my iMac. Can someone assist please.
    Thanks
    Don

    I tried something similar by adding a new mail account doing the apple id etc but it worked in that it would look for mail but no mail would come even though mail still goes to my phone I was loath to delete my original account just in case the new one did not work as well. So I guess I am a little stuck now.. I hope you can help me to sort it out.
    Thanks

  • I just upgraded to iPhoto 11. My events are not sorted in date order even though I have chose it to under the view tab????

    I cannot get my photos in date order in iPhoto 11 What can I do to remedie this?

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • How do I uninstall from iMac? I keep getting malware saying my pc (wrong!) has suspicious programs, etc., even though I have drug it to trash and reinstalled several times.

    Earlier today Firefox crashed. Later a window came up, with the rest of the screen grayed-out, saying there is suspicious programs on my 'pc' (wrong because I have an iMac) and it will run a scan to see if there are any suspicious programs. I immediately quit Firefox, with an additional window popping up asking if I really wanted to quit the page, that data may be lost. I quit. I tried restarting my computer, but in opening Firefox, it did the same thing. I then tried to delete FF by dragging it from my appl. folder to trash and reinstalling using Safari. Did this several times with the same result...still get the popup window saying the same thing each time.
