How do you change the date associated w an event in FCPX?

In iMovie there's a menu item to correct dates, and its very useful. Even though the dates are corrected in iMovie, when imported into FCPX the modified date is lost. I've got imported VHS with the date of conversion to digital, not the date of filming, and some digital video where the camera clock was set for2012.

I say ideally because I'm not sure if changing the file in any way will cause FCPX to consider the media as missing.
I successfully changed the creation date for files I imported, but they were not copied to the Event folder. What I did was switch to proxy media so I knew FCPX wasn't actually using the original files at that time. I then changed the creation date of my files using muCommander (sorry I am not familiar with how A Better Finder works). Then, when I opened FCPX and changed back to using the original media, the creation date was updated in FCPX and my media was still there.
Maybe try muCommander, it is free and I didn't find it too hard to figure out.
Also, I'd try this with just a single file at first, and of course make a copy of the file just in case.

    How do you change the dates on your iphoto pictures?

    You'd need an app that can edit EXIF data. You can't do that natively on an iPhone but there may be apps in the App Store that will let you do it. Take a look at Snapseed. I think it might.

    How do I change the date printed on my pictures when using the Photosmart A646 with Windows 7?
    It says 01-01-70. I have explored every option on the printer's touch screen as well as on the print properties screen on the computer and can't seem to find a way to change the date.

    If you took a picture with the date stamp feature turned on then you can not change the stamp.

  • How do you change the date recieved to reflect the correct time & date?

    I just upgraded to Tiger and since I did, my email "comes in" 7 hours ahead of the correct time? If an email comes in at 4:21pm (real time) Mail shows it as 11:21pm.
    Does anyone know how to correct that so it reflects my time zone?
    The time & date in system preferences are correct.

    Just what to you mean?

  • How do you change the date/currency format for every user in OSX 10.6?

    I imaged a bunch of mac labs at work only to realize the base image has the date/currency set for United States rather then United Kingdom. The regional settings are correct.
    I tried changing it on the local admin account but it does not affect a new user that logs onto an AD account.
    Workgroup manager does not seem to offer anything either unless I am missing it.
    Any ideas?

  • How do you change the date under 130 images in organizer?

    These images were taken in one location same day on 9/30/2009. The organizer has them grouped as 9/20/2009. I am pretty sure the answer is easy but; I have read 3 publication on PSE 7 and can't find the fix. Camera used shows the correct date.

    In the Organizer, select the 130 images and do Edit > Adjust Date And Time > Shift To New Starting Date And Time.

  • How do you change the time zone for all events?

    I didn't have the correct setting checked for my time zone. It appears that I now have to go back and correct each event. Is that true? It would be impossible since I have over 1,000 events in my calendar.
    Any suggestions? Thanks - Kris

  • How do you change the position of email sender so that it's on the left (sender[from], subject and date received)

    How do you change the position of email sender so that it's on the left (sender[from], subject and date received)

    In the Thread Pane where your messages are listed?
    You see that bar with the labels "From", "Subject", "Date" and so on? Well, they are buttons. You can click on them to sort your messages. You can also drag them with the mouse left and right to reposition them, and you can drag their ends to change the column widths.
    These are standard computer actions; you can do all of this in Windows Explorer ("My Computer") too.
    In Thunderbird, a right-click on any of these buttons will reveal a pop-up menu where you can select and deselect the columns to control what is shown.

  • TS3988 how do you change the email address associated to my account

    how do you change the email address associated to my account

    Your description doesn't make it entirely clear what you are trying to do. Your Apple ID - which you use to log in to iCloud - is a non-Apple email address and you can change this. You may also have a 'rescue' address (advisable) which is a non-Apple email address and you can change that. The @icloud.com address you set up when you opened the iCloud account can not be changed, but has nothing directly to do with Hotmail (other than that being the login).
    What you can do is add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
    More information on aliases here:
