Library Filter returns images of the wrong date

Question

I have just moved from v3.6 to v4.3.
When using the library window, grid view, I use the filter bu selecting a specific date but images are being returned incorrectly.
For example:
When I select a date i.e. 25/05/2011, I have images being shown for that date but also others with a capture date of 06/02/2012.
How can this issue be corrected?  I have over 60,000 images to review.

Although I can understand why you think that a large catalogue might be more easily liable to corruption, I had read Adobe’s own comments which said that there is no problem with them.
In fact, the same source recommends that you should NOT have multiple catalogues.
I’ve just completed the re-import of my last v3 catalogue into the v3 software and then gone through my list of files, doing a manual check of each file on my list and compared its details to those before the upgrade.
The two lists do not match.  Where the EXIF data was contained in the catalogue before the upgrade, now there are files where it is missing. 
These errors match those seen in the v4 version.
As the upgrade was done on the following day, it isn’t likely to be a corruption of the v3 catalogue but it is probable an effect of the upgrade process as the v3 Catalogue is now showing a modified date the same as the date of the upgrade.
After my review of the files, it is clear that most of the files losing the metadata are Jpegs (approx. 80%), although the remainder are pretty evenly split between RAW and PSD files.
As the v3 is now flawed, I need to recreate the lost data.
The information missing from the metadata includes the EXIF & contact data & creation dates and some files are showing a creation date a year ahead of when they were actually taken.
Where the metadata remains intact on a RAW or a PSD file, is there any way to copy this to the Jpeg where it is missing?
If it can be copied, I presume that it isn't possible to do an automatic process that identifies images where file names are the same albeit the file extension is Jpeg or PSD?
Whilst discussing metadata, can I select the sections of metadata I use, or at can I rearrange the panel to show the sections I want ahead in the sequence above those I don’t so as to reduce the need for scrolling?
(I am aware that capture date can be amended in batches).
I greatly appreciate all your time and advice.
Fingers crossed that this can be finally sorted and not require too much effort from me to put the errors right!
