Export with original date

I just converted some .avi files to .m4v to save space but found that the date of the file changes to the date of the conversion. Is there a way to keep the origial date of the file.
Note: These are home videos for viewing in iPhoto.

Hi John
I thought of this workaround also, but it won't solve my problem.
I can easily rename the files in sequence, but the problem is that the exported files are used together with other files in my other application and the total mix of files I can only sort by time and date to get them in sequence.
So, it is vital for me to have original (capture) time and date on exported images.

Why is the version file smaller than the original file, although I didn't make changes in the file? And why is the keywords don't exporting with original files?

Hi! Why is the version file smaller than the original file, although I didn't make changes in the file? And why is the keywords don't exporting with original files?

Wild guess: you're using the the wrong export settings. You'll need to tell us more before we can help you - like the export settings you're usng, the size and format of the originals etc.

Videos in iPhoto used to export with correct date, no they don't.

Hello, I use iPhoto a lot. About every 6 months I rename and export my photos and videos to a separate portable hard drive for safe storage.
I am doing that right now, but have noticed that my videos do not export with the correct date (changes the date to the export date), and therefore the videos are not going to be in the right order, and will not have the correct date on my backup files. The pictures export properly with correct date. Just the videos are the problem.
This problem did not exist before. What has changed? Is there a way to export my videos and retain the correct date again?
Thank you!

Thank you for the quick reply Terence!
Is this something new for Maverick, or new iPhoto update? I have always been able to export video with the correct date. Even when I imported it back into iPhoto later, the correct date was there. I think I updated to Maverick after my last renaming and exporting session.
I have found that if I drag the video from iPhoto to my desktop, it keeps the correct date on the file and the video is intact. So there must be some sort of "metadata" in the file that has the correct date?? You probably have the knowledge to experiment with this??
Just seems weird, because for years it was just fine. Now it is not.
How did the videos used to keep the correct date?
Thank you.

How to keep edited photos with original date

After installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 11, I imported all my photos from my files on my computer. Many of the photos were upsidedown and needed to be rotated. When I rotated them, they were moved to the current date (when edited). How can I keep them in their original sequence (date)?

Good day!

Transferring images out of iPhoto but keeping original date

I'm currently backing up all my images from iPhoto 4 onto CD (and elsewhere). When I transfer them the copy has todays date rather than the date they were originally created. Is there anyway to transferring them to back up and keep creation date so I retain the timeline.
thanks in advance

Hello -
I recently backed up my photo archive from my old G4 desktop to an external hard drive, then imported everything into iPhoto on my new MacBookPro. A number of photos are now categorized with 'original date' as 2007, though I know they are from a trip in 2006.
Is there any way to change this original date to the correct date, or otherwise weed them out of the calendar view under 'library', or do I simply need to distrust / ignore the annual organization and make my own 'album' and/or folders to deal with the mislabel?
Assuming the original files are correct (I unfortunately cannot check right now), would transferring the files directly between the computers solve the problem? Is there a way to back up without corrupting the original date field?
Thanks,
D.G/C.A

I have made a burn folder with photos exported from I-photo. It now shows in information, that the date is created and modified is different from the original digitized date. How can I get the original date to show in the info from Finder?

The Finder reports File information. The date and time of the photo are in the Photo's Exif metadata. The Finder has no awareness of this. All photos apps on any system do.

Export with data length semantics

Hello,
I've following problem.
I have a table abcd which contains 2 VARCHAR2 columns with different data length semantics (one with BYTE, one with CHAR). Charset is Single Byte; let's say WE8MSWIN1252, so data length semantics should not be a problem. should not. details later.
So this would be:
create table abcd (a_char VARCHAR2(2 CHAR), a_byte VARCHAR2(2 BYTE));after that I export the table via exp. I'm not setting NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS environment variable, so BYTE is used.
In the dump file the data length semantics for the byte col is omitted, as I exported it with BYTE:
create table abcd (a_char VARCHAR2(2 CHAR), a_byte VARCHAR2(2));after that, I "accidently" import it with data length semantics set to CHAR, and the table looks like this now
abcd
a_char VARCHAR2(2 CHAR)
a_byte VARCHAR2(2 CHAR)Same happens vice versa when using CHAR for export and BYTE for import...
In single byte charsets this might not be so much of a problem, as one CHAR is equal to one BYTE, but...
If I compile plsql against the original table, and run against the outcoming table after export, I get an ORA-4062, and I have to recompile...
Would not be a problem if the plsql I compile would be on the database...Big problem is that the ORA-4062 occurs in forms, where it's difficult for me to recompile (I would have to transfer all the sources to customer and compile there).
Is there any possibility to export data length semantics regardless which environment variable is set?
database version would be 9.2.0.6; but if there exists a solution in higher versions I would also be happy to hear them...
many thanks,
regards

PS If you have access to Metalink, read Note:144808.1 Examples and limits of BYTE and CHAR semantics usage. From 9i and up, imp doesn't read nls_length_semantics from the environment.

Safe as jpg WITH the original date embedded?

Hi everyone!
I use Adobe Bridge to organize my photos and to adjust them in Camera Raw (targeted adjustments --- yeah ).
Sometimes I have to safe some of those adjusted photos as jpg to send them to my family (because they don't use RAW and those files are way too big of course). What really bothers me is that there seems to be no way to get the original date giving by the camera into the EXIF-data so that my family sees when I shot this or that picture.
Is there any chance to do so? I meen, when exporting pictures with e.g. iPhoto, the original date is embedded. But I don't want to abandon those brilliant adjustment tools of Camera Raw.
Thanks for your help!

The original date and time ARE embedded in the exported JPEG file's EXIF data. Please explain exactly the why you think it is not. Note that the OS file system dates are not the same as the EXIF dates.

Trouble maintaining original "date taken" info and metadata when exporting TIFFs from original CR2 files.

When exporting TIFFs (from original RAW), I noticed my metadata said the "date created" was the day of export. I want to be able to access the date the original image was taken as opposed to the day I exported it. Is there a way to maintain original date of image taken in my info? I couldn't seem to find it after I exported my TIFFs...

I just tested this with LR 5.5 Mac OS 10.9.3 and it works correctly for me.
To troubleshoot your problem:
1. Which version of LR and which platform (Mac, Windows)?
2. Which tool or command are you using to examine Date Created of the exported TIFF?
3. Upload a sample TIFF showing the problem to Dropbox or similar and post the URL here. This will allow us to take a look in detail.

Help with exporting forms based data to Excel 2007

I have a user who is attempting to export forms based data to Microsoft Excel 2007 and when he attempts this he receives a message stating that Windows does not recognise this file type (tsv). I am not too familiar with Office 2007 so I am unable to direct this users as to how to correct this issue.
Is someone able to give me the navigation path to help me to assist this user? thanks

Did you verify the file type from Windows Explorer?
1) Right click on My Computer > Explore
2) Go to Tools > Folder Options
3) Click on File Types tab
4) Check if TSV file is defined there or not. If it is not there, click on New and add the File Extension

After reformatting my 1 Tb WD ext drive and tinkering with the "exclude these items" list, I now get the following error message from Time Machine:Are you sure you want to back up to the same device your original data is on? the WD disk has mounted??

After reformatting my 1 Tb WD ext drive and tinkering with the "exclude these items" list, I now get the following error message from Time Machine: "Are you sure you want to back up to the same device your original data is on?" I've reformatted in Disk Utilities...not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Not sure what you mean by "booted" from it.
If the Mac OS is installed on the external drive, then it's possible to start up from it, just as you do from your internal drive. Please open the Startup Disk preference pane in System Preferences, and verify that your internal drive is selected as the startup disk.
Assuming that's the case, then it may be that your TM settings have been corrupted. Turn off TM, then move or delete the file /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist. Turn TM back on, recreate your settings, and try again.

How to export a report data with a custom file name?

Hello:
Env: OBIEE 11g Answers/Interactive Dashboards
I have a tabular report (built in Answers) and displayed in a Dashboard. I want to export the report data in csv format prefixed with the <OBIEE user login name>_<Name of the Report>_<current timestamp> on a certain folder.
Any ideas appreciated..
Thanks
Sankar Bala
Edited by: 589151 on Mar 7, 2012 6:14 AM

This does not help solve my problem.
Tabular Report->Place it in a section in a dashboard->Report Links (Export Option turned on). When doing the export, I want to change the file name as the <Login Name>_<File Name>_<Time Stamp>.csv when doing the export into csv from the dashboard.

Sankar

I am able to 'create a new version from original' but when I try to export the original, I only get a .jpg with the XMP file. The original is obviously there but why can't I access it please?

In Aperture 3 when I right click on an image I am able to 'create new version from original' which suggests that the original is there. When I try to export the original I only get a .jpg with the XMP file. These particular images are from 2010, has the RAW file become disconnected somehow? Please, how do I get access to the RAW file for editing in Ps? Thank you. Thomasrevil.

Sorry leonie, 'Use RAW as Original' is not an option for the image shot with the Canon.
Then your Import settings must have been different, when you imported the Canon photos.
You can check, if there is still a hidden raw file somewhere. If the image has been imported as a pair, you should see the "J" badge in Browser and Viewer, if you enable badge overlays. This indicates a pair, with the jpeg as original.
Select one of those images, and then relocate the original files "File > Relocate original" to a folder, where you can inspect it. Use "File > Show in Finder" after ward. Look, don't touch .
Then put it back, using "File > Consolidate".
Do you see your raw files in the folder, or is only a jpeg there?
