Exif data gets stripped exporting to camera roll

I import pics from camera roll to edit in PST. I then export back to camera roll so tha I can use another picture management app to sort my edited pics into files. However the original exif data seems to get stripped out, especially the original date an time the original photo was taken. Apps like Photogene and Filterstorm do no do this. Is there a way of stopping this happening ? Or is it a bug ..... Why can the original exif data not be left intact ?

Sounds daft as it would probably be easier for the app to eave the exif data intact rather than deliberately alter it !
I hope adobe can put his right as preserving the original date and time of a photo is crucial for some photographers. This kinda prevents me from using PST as it is very important for me, and I no need to resort back to using Photogene.

  • Corrupted EXIF data in photos exported from Lightroom CC

    After upgrading to Lightroom CC EXIF can't be read by some apps. "Re-saving" a file in Photoshop fixes the problem. I'm using Mac OSX 10.9.5. Are there any plans to update and fix the EXIF data generated when exported from Lightroom CC?
    Also, this command fixes the issue with Create Date part of EXIF.
    #!/bin/sh
    exiftool -AllDates="$(exiftool ${1} | grep 'Create Date' | awk '{print $(NF-1), $NF }')" -overwrite_original ${1}
    The reason I'm asking is because we run a site where "Create Date" read from JPG's EXIF is crucial and it's a matter of letting users upload the pic or deny uploading.
    So again, any plans on the fix?
    Regards,

    I confirmed that the Exiftool command line:
    exiftool -m -all= -tagsfromfile @ -all:all -unsafe file.jpg
    removes the ICC Profile, which could account for significant color differences, considering that the profile is Adobe RGB.  I think this may be a bug in Exiftool, so I filed a bug report.  (But it might be that Exiftool just can't handle the non-standard layout of LR's JPEGs.)  The author is typically very responsive.
    I tried some alternate Exiftool command lines that touch as little metadata as possible, and this one seems to address both of LR 6's JPEG problems:
    exiftool -m '-exif:datetimeoriginal<exif:datetimeoriginal' -xmp-crs:all= file.jpg
    The -m option ignores minor errors and issues, in particular, when there are more than 1000 entries in the XMP metadata.
    The '-exif:datetimeoriginal<exif:datetimeoriginal'  option sets the EXIF Date Time Original Field with its current value; this tricks Exiftool into rewriting just the EXIF metadata without touching the other metadata segments (e.g. the ICC profile), addressing the first JPEG problem.   (You could use any EXIF field that's present -- I picked DateTimeOriginal since every camera adds that.)
    The -xmp-crs:all= option option deletes all of LR's develop settings from the XMP metadata, addressing the second JPEG problem.That metadata is not ready by any programs other than LR, as far as I know. 
    I've tested this new command line on a couple of pics, including the example you provided above, and it appears to work correctly.  But given that we're dealing with buggy output from LR that doesn't conform to the de facto and de jure standards, it's hard to have high confidence without testing on dozens if not hundreds of pics.

  • HT4910 How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream?

    How do i get photos from my Camera Roll into my Photo Stream? It seems it is supposed to do it automatically , but it does not.

    Photos are normally uploaded automatically as long as you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed and have at least 20% battery life remaining.  (It doesn't require a manual iCloud backup first.)
    If yours are working, if you haven't already done so, try turning off photo stream, then turn it back on.
    Sometimes people have issues getting photo stream to work on their home wifi, even if other devices in the home seem to work fine.  To troubleshoot this as a possible cause, some things to try include:
    Power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then rejoin your wifi network.
    See if there is a firmware update available for your router.
    Change the DNS settings in your router to Google's Public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using)
    As a diagnostic step, go to a public wifi hotspot and take a photo, then wait a minute or so to see if it appears in your My Photo Stream album on your phone.  If it does, this confirms that the problem is with your home wifi.

  • Photoshop not seeing lens model in exif data from A3 export

    Hi, I am trying to use the lens correction features in CS5 but the lens type can't be read in the exif data of an image I've exported from A3. It sees the focal length and body type. The lens type is listed in the Metadata Inspector in A3. I took the image into iPhoto and checked "extended photo info" and the lens type isn't there either. This happens with at least 2 lenses. One prime and one zoom. Any ideas?

    Hi again
    Having played with metadata a bit more, it is possible to include EXIF data for the lens size etc.. eg...EF300mm f2.8L IS USM But it doesn't append the manufacturer's name, eg I use Canon, yet 'Canon' is not appended to the Lens data like it is to the camera name..
    In the library Inspector click > Metadata > where it says 'General' click the down arrow, then click > Edit > from the window that appears click > EXIF > from the drop down list click > Lens (scroll down a bit)
    The lens you used will now be appended to your data.
    I have not tried exporting this to Photoshop so maybe you could post back if its possible to export this data to PS or not.
    Maybe someone has information on this and can chip in here with advice....
    Hope this is helpful....... Gerry....
    PS to all reading this, I also noticed while playing around with this ( I have not delved into metadata too much since Ap2) that all my personal details like mobile number, address, email etc are all appended by default, I imagine my address book info has been used here.
    A useful feature indeed while selling photo's, or if you intend it to be there..... but not so good if you are not aware it's there in the first place.....!
    Just a shared thought to whom it may concern....... Gerry.

  • EXIF data filtered when exporting to Flickr

    I've noticed that some EXIF data seems to be filtered out when exporting photos to Flickr via Aperture's built-in Flick exporter.
    For example, if I export same photo using Flickr's upload page, then using Aperture's built-in Flickr exporter, then re-download original back to my computer, the fields like "lens size" are missing from the copy exported by Aperture.
    There's few other fields that are silently filtered out by Aperture. Looking at the differences between two copies of the same photo re-downloaded back from Flickr, examples include fields such as digital zoom, subject distance, focus mode, macro mode, firmware version, serial number, owner name (and the list goes on)...
    While one could argue that some fields contain personal information, there's my real name on my Flickr account, so having serial number or owner name in EXIF data removed is kind of pointless for my use case. Also, there's tons of photos I exported in the past to various photo sharing sites containing these headers anyhow.
    I'd really like to preserve some interesting and useful (technical) fields such as lens size or subject distance. Is there a way to tell Aperture "I don't care, the world already knows this stuff, don't filter EXIF info when exporting"?

    Hi Raja,
    Not sure, what version are you in, but must not be in latest.
    You have to write a e-text to get csv/txt of the desired format.
    By default, if you are not in latest version, you will see some data when you select csv without E-text template

  • IMovie on iPad 2 will not export to camera roll

    I just put together a 6 1/2 minute iMovie on my iPad 2, and I cannot export it to the camera roll (in any resolution). There are a lot of videos, photos (taken with three different Canon digital cameras, panoramic pictures created with the Autostitch application, and photo montages created with the Montage application. The videos include very long segments (1 minute plus) of which I am only using 6-7 seconds. The progress bar when attempting to export shows no progress, even after hours of working on the video. Occasionaly, iMovie says it cannot export the movie.
    Any ideas about what is wrong?
    I can export simple, small movies, but this was a pretty ambitious project, and I'm not having any luck with it.
    Albert

    It turns out that imovie does not like to have too many video clips. When you have too many video clips, and you trim them significantly, there are rendering problems if the part of the clip you trimmed overlaps past (either before or after in time) the clips on either side of the problematic clip. If you end up trimming your clips that are imported into iMovie, then everything seems to work fairly well. This is pretty lake, because when I do a quick and dirty edit of a single 15 minute mountain biking segment down to two minutes, everything seems to work fine.

  • Batch Change "Date Modified" to match Exif Data After iPhoto Export

    Among several other posts about similar situations, I have found none that directly and simply resolve this issue.
    My wife imported a bunch of photos into iPhoto directly, but I wanted them in a folder on the hard drive.
    I pulled them out of iPhoto into a folder, then deleted the ones in iPhoto so that I could sort them and reimport.
    I then realized that the photos all now showed the date they were imported into iPhoto as their created/modified dates, which makes it impossible to easily sort them by the date of the pictures.
    I checked the Exif data, and it has preserved the correct creation date event though checking "info" on the pictures shows create date the same as modified the same as iPhoto import.
    Is there an easy way to batch change an entire folder of pictures to change the Created/Modified dates to match the Created date from the Exif data?
    The only other similar posts had answers that reccomend a piece of software that does not seem to actually do this, and one that suggests some sort of confusing script that I don't really understand.
    Please help - I have a bunch of family photos that I really need to fix.

    shootShifter helps to redate and rename complete folders of images based on the EXIF data or Finder dates.
    So it will do batches.
    I also believe that exporting the Original (File -> Export: Kind Original) will make all of this unnecessary.
    I don't like having them only in iPhoto so I organize the originals into folders by choronological event then import them so I have copies outside the iPhoto library to put elsewhere.
    You understand that you're using twice the disk space there, right? And that it's quite unnecessary. All iPhoto does is to put them in folders too. Have you looked inside the iPhoto Library ever?
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed. Your photos are in the Masters folder.
    Standard warning: Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things,, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.

  • Getting back the old camera roll view

    Ok, so I don't have time for this BS. But apple obviously has no interest in taking any responsibility for their desicions, or in their users' views, and hence I am referred to this user forum.
    How do I get back to the old camera roll view? I'm not interrested in having apple sort my photos for me, the way the latest update seems to have forced on me. I want to be able to see all my photos in one continuous stream, like before. How do I accomplish this?

    There seems to be two of us in total, who are frustrated about this... I can´t believe it... This is the most obnoxious change apple has made in a loooong time. And there is NO way of contacting them directly about it. It seems that speaking to customers is simply beneath their dignity, unless you have purchased a new product very, very recently and still qualify for their precious support. They obviously don´t care even the least about the potential negative consequences for their customers of the updates they more or less impose on us. Do they have some kind of policy that goes something like this: "We are Apple, and we are so completely full of ourselves that it´s beyond comprehension. Do NOT bother us with questions about our recent software updates!! We don´t care about you enough for that!! We know that we have a solid customer base anyway, so if you are disappointed with us in any way, that´s just too bad for you. If you need help, even if a change we made without consulting you is the cause of that need for help - ask another Apple product user, NOT US!!! We have better things to do!!"I´m so infuriated right now that I´m about to hurtle my iPhone to kingdom come. WEAK, Apple!!! (Of coarse, no one at Apple is actually going to read this...I don´t even know why I´m bothering... )

  • Exporting to camera roll from app turns to negative

    Ever since I updated my iPad's OS to 7, I am having trouble exporting the images I create with Paper by Fiftythree to my camera roll. The images turn to negatives and they remain that way even when I email them or upload from there. Is it a problem with the OS, with the camera roll or with Paper by Fiftythree? In order to continue using the iPad for my work as an illustrator, I have to email each images to myself, which is time consuming. I haven't found anything to indicate that anyone else is having the same problem. Can anyone help me??

    Close the Camera app on the Task Bar and re-launch.
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar
    2. Hold app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen

  • 'Date created' instead of EXIF date getting used for batch naming/folders?

    I've noticed that Aperture is using the file creation date as opposed to EXIF date/time info when it imports my photos. Camera is a Nikon D200. Images are .NEF files.
    If I allow Aperture to apply new master file names, based on Image Date - Image Time, it uses the Mac's file creation date (whenever the file was copied to the machine) as opposed to using the EXIF date and time.
    I've already filed a bug with apple, but wanted to put it up here as well to see if others were having the same experiences.

    Hello,
    I use exiftool to modify the  Creation and Modification time of the files. After that I use LR "Ajust time" feature to set the time of the movies in LR to the file creation time (last point). This works fine for me.
    For MOV (Quicktime):
    exiftool "-FileModifyDate<TrackCreateDate"  "-FileCreateDate<TrackCreateDate"
    For AVI:
    exiftool "-FileModifyDate<DateTimeOriginal"  "-FileCreateDate<DateTimeOriginal" *.avi
    Depnding on your camera (and container format mov, avi) you may also ajust the time zone, e.g.
    exiftool -FileModifyDate+=1 -FileCreateDate+=1 -if "$CameraModelName =~ /EOS 600D/i" *.mov
    Which time in the container (MOV, AVI) you use as source, depends on your workflow. I edit my mov files before import. Therfore "CreateDate" is the time when I edited the file. Quicktime and (some) avi file contain a time when the containing stream was created. I use this vaule as source.
    exiftool <filename> gives you detailed information about all available times.

  • IMoviemobile export to Camera Roll will not play with quicktime on PC (video plays but with black screen, audio ok)

    Videos created in iMovie on the new ipad will not play on PC with Quicktime after being exported to the Camera Roll and copied to the PC. Movie will play but with a black screen only. Audio ok. Was able to do before ios 6 but not now.

    I'm having the same problem. All of the movies I export out of iMovie since upgrading to the latest version show up with no video, only audio, in Quicktime. Ironically the video place just fine in Windows Media Player and also in iTunes.
