How do I change Digitized Date

I need to change the digitized date in some of my photos in iPhoto '08. The Adjust Date & Time function only changes the original date/time and the Batch Change function doesn't offer an option to change the digitized date either.

I believe that digitized date corresponds to the EXIF Capture Date if the photo is from a digital camera. If the photo has been copied to other media or emailed it may lose that date in the process. You will have to use an EXIF editor like PhotoInfo to change it. If the photo has been scanned or form some web sites it may not have that EXIF field in the file and cannot be changed.
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 created 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I do not have Mavericks or iOS - but the first thing I would do is reset the defaults - I'll use Mavericks as an example
From If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac - Apple Support
OS X Yosemite and Mavericks
    Open System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Language & Region.
    Click the Advanced button.
    Click the Dates tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click the Times tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click OK.
    Quit the app where you were seeing incorrect dates or times displayed.
    Open the app again, and verify that the dates and times are now displayed correctly.
Then customize to taste - OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
Change the language and formats used to display dates, times, numbers, and currencies in Finder windows, Mail, and other apps. For example, if the region for your Mac is set to United States, but the format language is set to French, then dates in Finder windows and email messages appear in French.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Language & Region.
    Choose a geographic region from the Region pop-up menu, to use the region’s date, time, number, and currency formats.
    To customize the formats or change the language used to display them, click Advanced, then set options.
    In the General pane, you can choose the language to use for showing dates, times, and numbers, and set formats for numbers, currency, and measurements.
    In the Dates and Times panes, you can type in the Short, Medium, Long, and Full fields, and rearrange or delete elements. You can also drag new elements, such as Quarter or Milliseconds, into the fields.
    When you’re done customizing formats, click OK.
    The region name in Language & Region preferences now includes “Custom” to indicate you customized formats.
To undo all of your changes for a region, choose the region again from the Region pop-up menu. To undo your changes only to advanced options, click Advanced, click the pane where you want to undo your changes, then click Restore Defaults.
To change how time is shown in the menu bar, select the “Time format” checkbox in Language & Region preferences, or select the option in Date & Time preferences.
Here's the result AppleScript i use to grab the " 'Short Date' ' + ' 'Short Time' " to paste into download filenames - works good until I try to post it here - the colon " : " is a no-no but is fine in the Finder
Looks like iOS Settings are a bit less robust
- Date/Time formats are displayed according to 'tradition' of your region > http://help.apple.com/ipad/8/#/iPad245ed123

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field? I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

Hi,
I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
1. Open your form in FormsCentral
2. Clik on Options tab
3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.

There are two kinds of metadata involved when you consider jpeg or other image file.
One is the file data. This is what the Finder shows. This tells you nothing about the contents of the file, just the File itself.
The problem with File metadata is that it can easily change as the file is moved from place to place or exported, e-mailed, uploaded etc.
Photographs have also got both Exif and IPTC metadata. The date and time that your camera snapped the Photograph is recorded in the Exif metadata. Regardless if what the file date says, this is the actual time recorded by the camera.
Photo applications like iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa, Photoshop etc get their date and time from the Exif metadata.
When you export from iPhoto to the Finder new file is created containing your Photo (and its Exif). The File date is - quite accurately - reported as the date of Export.
However, the Photo Date doesn't change.
The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif.
So, your photo has the correct date, and so does the file, but they are different things. To sort on the Photo date you'll need to use a photo app.

No. That's not what I said. You can get an out of warranty replacement, which will be exactly the same model, color, and will be locked in exactly the same way the original is. If you want an iPhone 5, get the 4S replaced, sell it, and use the money to put toward a new phone.

Numbers & most apps, especially those from Apple, use the date format you have set in System Preferences > Language & Text > Region. You can then choose UK from the Region drop-down list. Mine says Custom because I've defined things further as in the second screenshot.

How can I change the date "taken" on individual photos in iPhoto?

How can I change the date "taken" on individual photos in iPhoto? I have some photos that were scanned and the date "taken" info displays the day the picture was scanned as opposed to the date it was actually taken. Is there some way to edit this information?

In iPhoto '11 on your Mac use the command "Photos > Adjust Date and Time" and enable the "Modify original files" option, if you want to set the date of the originals to the correct date as well.

How can I change the date on the top of the screensaver on my iPad air?

How can I change the date at the top of the screensaver? It still has the date I purchased it. I tried the date and time and resetting the ipad.

What do you mean at the top of the screensaver ? If you mean the wallpaper image that you have as your background, and which also shows on the lock screen, then you can change that image via Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness - did you take a screenshot on the date that you bought your iPad, and that screenshot included the date on it ?
On my lock screen, if that's what you mean by screensaver, then the date that shows below the time is picked up from Settings > General > Date & Time e.g.
