Mismatch in "Date Created" in File Properties vs IPTC Core

I have scanned my old photos in .jpg format.  When I try to change the Date Created (Select Photo -> Right-Click -> File Info... -> under IPTC Image -> Change the Date Created to the date the event was held), the Date Created under File properties did not change.  In effect, when I want to do a search of dates, it does its search on the Date Created in File properties.
Can I change the date on the File Properties?  If so, how.  Can this be done on a batch, like synchronization of Date Created in File Properties and IPTC Core but using the information on the IPTC core.
btw, I am using Bridge that comes part of the Photoshop CS2.
Heeelllllppppp........

There have been several posts about changing the "date created" in Bridge.  The conclulsion is NO.  There are other programs that can do this so concentrate your efforts there (do not have a list so will have to explore).
Do not confuse the three "dates" that are in metastock.

     Date File Created
     Date File Modified

  • Change "Date Created" on File Folders

    What is the easiest way to change or alter the "Date Created" on file folders - To a date that is 6 months older? (OS 9.1)
    I need to store my photos in a single large chronologically ordered file. Some of them are sourced from scanned photos and some are received in emails from folks.
    I want to store them in the same date order as the day the photos were taken and NOT the day I filed them.
    Thanks.........Robert

    Neil and Don,
    I figured out a way to allow me to change the "Date Created" to any date I desired.
    1. Open "Date & Time" file in "Control Panels".
    2. Set the date desired (i.e. 6 months earlier.)
    3. Then Close "Date & Time"
    4. Now in (finder) click on "Command + N",
    This creates an "untitled file folder" on the desktop
    with the newly selected "Date Created".
    5. Give the new file folder the name desired.
    6. Drag the desired files to the newly created file folder
    and drop them.
    7. Trash the OLD Date Created Folder.
    8. Remember to go back to "Date Created" in "Control
    Panels" and change back to the current date.
    The above took care of my original question; But, I decided to use the same technique to change the "FILE" date created,
    rather than the "FILE FOLDER".
    I opened my digital camera software and took a ".jpg" photo file and did a "Save As" while "Date & Time" were in the altered state. My .jpg photo file now has the new "Date Created".
    I know that Niel and Don are completely aware of such a technique, But, I figured other forum members may find this method useful.
    Thanks for all of your continuing help........Robert

  • IPTC Date from the file properties (EXIF) at import?

    Is it possible to fill IPTC Date Created Field from the raw-file properties  at import to LR4?
    It would be nice – and time saving.

    Thank You  Geoff & Ian
    My mistake. I had a checkmark in the empty date-field in my standard metadata-preset. I now understand, that the date-field shall be left blank with no checkmark in the preset to get the date correct in IPTC. Thank You again.

  • Copy file name to IPTC (core) Instructions

    Hello
    In the past Paul has written some great scripts to autuomate my Bridge workflow. I'm hoping for another brilliant concoction.
    I wish to copy my file name to the IPTC core- 'Instructions' field so that the original name will be preserved somewhere in case renaming more than once wipes that file name out of the File Properties palette.
    Thanks!
    Don

    I have Bridge CS2 and CS3 and for some reason the CS3 version has the "Preserve Filename..." checkbox grayed out and I cannot figure out why. I was also looking for a way to view the "Preserved Filename..." and the only way I could do this was by using Bridge CS2 (since it isn't working for me in CS3), going to rename the file I am trying to view the old name on, and select "Preserved Filename" under the dropdown menu. This is a huge hastle and for some reason Lightroom 1.0 does not have the capability of preserving filenames at all! The DAM capabilities of Lightroom truly need work, but it is a wonderful application nonetheless, and I use it now for everything and haven't needed to use Bridge since I got Lightroom.

  • Method for quickly putting file names into IPTC core description?

    I would like to put the file names into the IPTC core description. The files are all named differently .Is there a way to batch this or any other way of automatically including it so that I don't have to do each file separately? Or perhaps there is a plug in?
    I am using PS5/ bridge on a mac.

    You only need a script… not a plug-in to do this. Search the bridge scripting forum as Im sure Paul has posted several variations of scripts that do this…

  • File properties: mysterious dates for created, modified and last opened

    I've seen this ever since I started using my Mac - I am a relatively new Mac user (a year or more vs. well, decades on Win/PC).
    Finder: click on a file and it will show its properties. It will have a "More info" button.
    The dates displayed between the 2 above are different.
    1) In the "immediate" display it would say something like:
    Last opened: Today at 10PM
    - this wrong day, "correct" time
    - considering that it will display this at say 7AM "today"...well, it's a "future" date/time
    2) If you click the More info button, the "truth" comes out
    Last opened: Yesterday at 10PM (accurate)
    Never really cared, but thought I'd ask here. At some point, if I start some development on the Mac, and filesystems, file properties are involved, this will obviously be an issue. I don't even know if this affects file searching based on these properties - again, new user, using Mac for very specific purpose, but usage is definitely on the rise, so I'd like to get some direction on very basic OS behavior like this fully understood.
    Thanks and happy new year to all!

  • Script to enumerate, and interactively modify File Properties (eg. meta-data)

    Hey Script Guys:
    I am analyzing SharePoint capabilities for a customer and there are some things that they need that is not there, but so far it seems it is but can't be seen.
    First two things are:
    'Stored Procedures' - That is a way from within a rule or workflow to interact with an interpretive host.  Right now I use REXX, which has the INTERPRET function.  I can write a script into a text element, send it there, and get the results.  Handy,
    but rough.  This is especially handy in validation situations, or re-mapping of data.
    A way for metadata to be plugged into a file easily without using the Properties dialog (like read it from document fields, etc) so the Content Routing can be cleaned-up to be more fully automated.
    Bear in mind I grew-up on Motorola Assembler, BAL and MASM to develop  ASIC's, process controllers, operating systems and compilers, so alot of this shell programming is still a little weird.  Be nice
    JgEarl (FOG) sends...

    File properties in WIndows are not part of the file. Some are part of the directory entry like the LastWriteTime and ReadOnly flag.
    In Windows Explorer file properties like the internal properties of an MSWord document or an Adobe PDF file can be exposed if the vendor provides a support DLL that Explorer can use to expose these. They are not normally available to any program directly. 
    They are only available via the "Shell" (Explorer) or via the application that manages the document.
    In SharePoint the "library" or other container manages a set or properties defined by SharePoint.  For MS documents we may be able to use "shell" methods to tattoo the SharePoint library with this information.
    None of this has much of anything to do with scripting.  It is e3xternal to the scripting system and can be accessed by the product specific support DLL such as the dll installed by MSWord and Adobe.
    To access these things through the shell in script we must instantiate the "Shell" object.  In SharePoint we can do this prior to loading the document or we can load documetns that Sharepointas nan installed DLL for.
    At this time I am not sure as to how SP does this.  I recommend posting in the SharePoint developer forum for information on how to access and build these extensions DLLs.  I believe you can also look it up in the SharePoint SDK.
    Outside of serverside code or using a custom library I do not see how you can do this.
    You can, of course, always generate a file of name/value pairs describing your files.  You can also add almost anything to the SharePoint library structure or create custom types to display your custom metadata.

  • Outlook 2010 - Data File Properties/Folder Size verses Windows Explorer pst file size

    I am running Outlook 2010 32bit Version 14.0.6129.5000 on a Windows PC running Windows 7 Professional.  All updates from MS are up to date.
    I have several pst files I open with Outlook 2010. The size of the files displayed in Outlook are very different than what is displayed in Windows Explorer. 
    For example one of the pst file called "business.pst" when opened Outlook displays it under "Data File Properties -> Folder Size" that the Total Size (including subfolders) is 764,354 KB.  Windows Explorer says
    the file size is 1,190,417 KB.
    For some reason MS Outlook 2010 is displaying the wrong folder size.  Any ideas why this is the case?
    Thanks,
    Pat

    Outlook mailbox grows as you create and receive items. When you delete items, the size of the Outlook Data File (.pst and .ost) file might not decrease in proportion to the data that you deleted, untill it has been compacted.
    Normally, after you have deleted items from an Outlook Data File (.pst), the file will be automatically compacted in the background when you’re not using your computer and Outlook is running.
    For an exception, when the Outlook Data File (.pst) is somehow corrupt, the compaction might not finish correctly. So the size of the Outlook Data File (.pst) file might remain the same before compaction.
    To solve this, try run the
    scanpst to fix the Outlook Data File (.pst) file first, after that, we can
    manually start the compact command.
    When finished, compare the file size again.

  • Windows 7, file properties - Is "date accessed" ALWAYS 100% accurate?

    Hello,
    Here's the situation: I went on vacation for a couple of weeks, but before I left, I took the harddrive out of my computer and hid it in a different location. Upon coming back on Monday (January 10, 2011) and putting the harddrive back in my computer, I
    right-clicked on different files to see their properties. Interestingly enough, several files had been accessed during the time I was gone! I right-clicked different files in various locations on the harddrive, and all of these suspect files had been accessed
    within a certain time range (Sunday, ‎January ‎09, ‎2011, approximately ‏‎between 6:52:16 PM - 9:06:05 PM). Some of them had been accessed at the exact same time--down to the very second. This makes me think that someone must have done
    a search on my harddrive for certain types of files and then copied all those files to some other medium. The Windows 7 installation on this harddrive is password protected, but NOT encrypted, so they could have easily put the harddrive into an enclosure/toaster
    to access it from a different computer.
    Of course I did not right-click every single file on my computer, but did so in different folders. For instance, one of the folders I went through has different types of files: .mp3, ,prproj, .3gp, .mpg, .wmv, .xmp, .txt with file-sizes ranging from 2 KB
    to 29.7 MB (there is also a sub-folder in this folder which contains only .jpg files); however, of all these different types of files in this folder and its subfolder, all of them had been accessed (including the .jpg files from the sub-folder) EXCEPT the
    .mp3 files (if it makes any difference, the .mp3 files in this folder range in size from 187 KB to 4881 KB). Additionally, this sub-folder which contained only .jpg files (48 .jpg files to be exact) was not accessed during this time--only the .jpg files within
    it were accessed-- (between 6:57:03 PM - 6:57:08 PM).
    I thought that perhaps this was some kind of Windows glitch that was displaying the wrong access date, but then I looked at the "date created" and "date modified" for all of these files in question, and their created/modified dates and
    times were spot on correct.
    My first thought was that someone put the harddrive into an enclosure/toaster and viewed the files; but then I realized that this was impossible because several of the files had been accessed at the same exact time down to the second. So this made me think
    that the only other way the "date accessed" could have changed would have been if someone copied the files.
    Is there any chance at all whatsoever that this is some kind of Windows glitch or something, or is it a fact that someone was indeed accessing my files (and if someone was accessing my files, am I right about the files in question having been copied)? Is
    there any other possibility for what could have happened?
    Do I need to use any kinds of forensics tools to further investigate this matter (and if so, which tools), or is there any other way in which I can be certain of what took place in that timeframe the day before I got back? Or is what I see with Windows 7
    good enough (i.e. accurate and truthful)?
    Thanks in advance, and please let me know if any other details are required on my part.
    P.S. The harddrive is NTFS.

    Never mind.  Someone else already answered this for me:
    "I use last accessed-created date time stamps all the time when troubleshooting-investigating software installs, its been very accurate in my uses of it in NTFS file systems.
    Since some of the dates are while you were gone, I assume it was several days to a week, I would say someone did access those files.
    These timestamps along with other data are used by computer forensics teams to reconstruct what a user did on a computer.
    Experienced Hackers use software to alter these time stamps to cover their tracks when breaking into computer systems."
    http://superuser.com/questions/232143/windows-7-file-properties-is-date-accessed-always-100-accurate/232320#232320
    Additionally, I just now found out what happened. Someone else found the harddrive and thought it was theirs (since it was identical to one they had been missing), so they put it in their computer and scanned it with an anti-virus software. They realized it
    wasn't theirs and then put it back in the place I had hidden it.
    In my original question, I stated a possible theory that someone may have copied the files, but I later realized that copying in itself doesn't affect the "date accessed" of the original/source file, but rather only the "date accessed" of
    the copy.
    Thanks to all those that may have read my question.

  • How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?

    This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013.  The development environment is found below at [A].  I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2
    database (.mdf)  that exists online.  I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file.  Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from
    an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems).  So I'm looking for another way.  What I did was create
    (or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot"
    is the format it seems).  It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
    So my question is:
    1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data?  What tool do I use?  I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx 
    and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
    2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio?  I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission
    to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
    3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013?  I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework.  Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database
    (CRUD), but it remains online.  Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy?  I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on
    my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
    Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
    Thank you,
