PSE 10 editor changing date taken in EXIF data

Hello. I have just joined the forum after recently buying PSE 10 Editor for Mac. I had no trouble at first but now after I have saved an edit I find that the date taken has been changed to the same as the date modified & imported.
I can change it back manually through iPhotos menu but this is a bit of a nuisance when a lot of photos are involved, I don't know why it has happened but how do I reset it to give the correct date ?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it didn't help. I lost another photo today and had to retrieve it
for the Organizer from my Windows files. Instead of placing it next to the original photo (or in the same area), it placed it in a file called Adobe/Photoshop.com. I made sure again that the line you referred to isn't checked. In addition, when the photo doesn't get lost, the Exif date for the photo does get lost and the photo is dated today. These two problems seem to be connected, although I can never predict which one will occur. Anybody have more ideas? Could it be a Windows 7 issue rather than a Photoshop issue?

PSE 10 organizer changing date times of photos

I have been having an issue since PSE9 which continues into PSE 10 organizer. After scaning photos and saving into organizer it will not allow assingment of jsut a year or a year month. If I take an old family photo and change date (scanned date) to year 1930 with unknown month it appears to take. Nect I time go into organizer it has changed the date to 12/31/1929. When I assign year and month with no date it will assing a day. PSE 10 also changes time of raw photos, keeps correct year, month, and day but changes time to the time file imported. If I correct the time it appears to take but it reverts back. This has become a major issue as I have over 16K of pictures and have scanned in thousands of old family photos, reasearching dates to use, it is extremetly frustarating to have a program that changes these settings.

PSE 10 organizer now displays SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES as the title for every imported image. This is very annoying. How to I prevent PSE from assigning this attribute to the title metadata upon import? I have thousands of photos, and going through each one to delete the title isn't really an option. Has anyone encountered this type of behavoir?
Windows 7 pro, if that matters.
Thanks,

It's an old behaviour from some camera manufacturers (also Olympus...) which write their brand name in the exif field reserved to captions:

PSE 8 editor changing exif creation date

When I bought a new Dell duo-core computer with Windows 7 I upgraded from PSE 6 to 8. Since then, the editor in 8 sometimes replaces the exif creation date with the date and time it was modified. It isn't keeping the first and adding the second as date modified, just replacing it when I save a photo from the editor. It isn't doing that every time, so I can't figure out what would cause this. In two days in March, my exif creation date in 500-600 photos, many of which I didn't edit at all, were changed to either March 20 or March 21, 2010. Any idea how I can prevent this from happening? Hint: it appears as though all the photos affected were taken with an Olympus point and shoot or were scanned to PSE 6's Organizer. I can't find any photos from my DSLR that have been affected.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it didn't help. I lost another photo today and had to retrieve it

PSE11: Editor changes Date Created?

PSE11 on Win 7.
I take pictures with my iPhone.
Photostream them to my Windows PC.
I copy the ones I want to keep from my Photostream Folder to a 'permanent' folder. (My understanding is PhotoStream only keeps 1,000 photos.)
The dates in the Photostream and permanent folder are the same.
Organizer detects the new files and I import them into my catalog.
Organizer shows me the Date Created in General and Metadata under the Information column. The dates all match and are the date the image was taken.
I then select an image, do a Ctrl-I to start the editor.
As soon as the editor starts the file date in Windows as well as the Date Created in General and Metadata get changed to the current date and time.
Shouldn't the original creation date and time be maintained? I thought this happened for my other images.
Thanks for any help or advice.

To disable this, uncheck "Write XMP ID to Files on Import" in the media preferences panel, or make the files readonly.

Does PSE 13 (Mac) support arranging pictures by EXIF Date-Time Taken?

Does PSE 13 (Mac) support arranging pictures by EXIF Date-Time Taken?
If not, is this an option under consideration?

It's the default sort order. You can choose chronological order( ascending or descending) or by Import batch or by filename. Contrary to older versions, those sort orders are available not only in thumbnail view, but also in Folders view and albums. In albums you can sort as you like 'custom order'. No difference in Mac or Win.

PSE 8 - Changing Dates - Serious problem

I have been using PSE for many years and have built up a library of almost 14,000 images, which are carefully tagged and dated, however I recently upgraded from PSE7 to PSE8 and, as recommended, I regenerated the thumbnails. I now find that PSE has changed the dates on about 4,000 of my photos and videos to the date of installation of PSE8 or of regeneration of thumbnails. The import date has remained unchanged but the date created and the date modified have both been changed on the file properties. The Exif Date as also been changed and mow matches the PSE Installation date as well.
I am running Windows 7 and first installed the trial version of PSE8 while I waited for the boxed version to come.
Since I am also experiencing some of the other bugs described in this forum, such as duplicated tags and the crashes when using people tagging etc. I am seriously thinking of going back to PSE7 and asking for a refund.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
I did a backup of the catalog just before upgrading and I assume that I could restore that, and then import all the new pictures since the PSE8 upgrade.
Does anyone have any recommendations for fixing this situation? I suppose I could deinstall PSE8 and PRE8, do a fresh install from the official disks, restore my PSE7 backup and reimport the recent photos. I have to say this sounds like a lot of work though.

Thanks for the reply, John. After I wrote my post I found your comprehensive listing of resolved and unresolved problems with the PSE Organizer in 7 and 8 and saw that you had already found an unresolved issue with both 7 and 8 changing dates and times.
I have not consciously changed anything at Photoshop.com. I'm only using the on-line backup/synchronization as one form of back up. I also back up to an external hard drive and DVDs. But now that the main files are corrupted, later backups will be corrupted, too.
I did have the advanced option to "Resolve backup/sync conflicts automatically" checked by mistake for awhile and I believe the date problem occurred while I had that option selected. Now that I've de-selected that option, however, the improper dates/times keep regenerating themselves.
This program is a quite disappointing upgrade, all in all. As you note, it is a lot slower in several ways than PSE 7 was. The program size may itself account for that since it is more than three times larger than 7 was. What kind of programmer allows an automatic backup function to override dates and times which the user has specified in response to a dialog box which specifically asks you to specify dates and times? And what kind of programmer hides the selection of file types for backup under "Advanced Backup/sync Options"? Out of the box, PSE 8 has no files selected for backup. The Backup/sync icon indicates that it's operating normally even when nothing at all is being backed up because you haven't clicked on any file types under "Advanced Backup/sync Options.
I saw someone asking about other organizer programs for electronic photos and other files. One which was not mentioned, which has a basically bulletproof organizer function, is Creative Memories Memory Manager 3 for about $40. Editing features are quite limited, but functional with no glitches. Organizing is the main thing here; editing is secondary, as you'd expect from a program aimed primarily at the digital scrapbooking market. The entire program is very easy to learn and use and backups work without a hitch. You could always edit in PSE and then use another program like Memory Manager 3 to organize your files as long as you don't save the edited files as .psd files. See: http://www.creativememories.com/MainMenu/Our-products-and-services/Digital-Scrapbooking/Me mory-Manager%c2%ae The reason my wife and I moved to PSE from Memory Manager was the more sophisticated editing functions available in PSE, but by comparison PSE's Organizer is second rate, to be kind.

Interesting, this is another symptom of a known bug: Photoshop.com doesn't handle unknown month, day, or time fields. (This is ironic, given that Adobe has been pushing a revision to its XMP standard specifically for handling unknown date/time fields.) See this post for other issues wth Photoshop.com:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2306550#2306550
After you first sync with Photoshop.com, you can see that the thumbnails on Photoshop.com have incorrect date/times. But for me to reproduce your bug, I need to then change the tags or captions of the thumbnails on Photoshop.com. Then when I sync again, the incorrect date/times get copied back into the PSE catalog. If I don't add a tag or caption on Photoshop.com, the incorrect date/times don't get copied back.
Are you making any changes to the tags or captions of the photos on Photoshop.com?

I have Elements 11. Sometimes, if I edit a photo in Elements Editor, the date gets changed to the current date. Why does that happen? It doesn't happen all the time, so I can't isolate the cause. Any ideas?

Issue with PSE 9 Editor

Running PSE 9 on a new iMAc with 8 Gig memory, 1 TB hard drive. When trying to save an edited file, the Editor consistently becomes unresponsive when I try to close the saved file requiring that I force Editor to close. Not only with not Editor close the saved file but the Editor cannot be closed normally.

I appreciate the help, I found out how to change paper type and it seems to work great. The remaining question, when I've finished editing an image and attempt to "Save" or "Save As" the system shows a box "Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 quit unexpectedly". If I go to "Reopen" it reopens the PSE at the organizer level and hasn't saved the image. Also at this level, "Save" is grayed out and unavailable. I sure appreciate someone that seems to know a lot more than the "Techs" at Adobe.Don

The second thing, opening the print dialog box does not open the same one as Windows, and allows no selection of paper type.
That is just a difference between macs and windows. On a mac, you choose the paper and print quality in the OS X system print window that opens after you click the Print button in the PSE window:

If you only have the little stub window, click the triangle to the right of the printer's name to expand the dialog box to see all the menus.

Why does Raw image open in PSE 11 Editor as jpeg instead of as RAW image?

For several years I have been managing my photos in iphoto and using PSE as an external editor for editing images. I currently use PSE 11 on an iMac with OS X Lion (version 10.7.5). My iPhoto Library is divided into a number of sub-libraries via iPhoto Library Manager. I have unexpectedly encountered a problem attempting to edit a RAW image (in this case a .NEF image from a Nikon D200) in a sub-library containing images shot in 2007. When I right click on the image and select Edit in External Editor the image opens in PSE 11 Editor, but it opens as a jpeg and not as an .NEF image. This is in spite of the fact that in iPhoto/Preferences/Advanced/RAW Photos I have checked "Use RAW when using external editor."
As an alternative approach I tried dragging and dropping the RAW image into the PSE 11 Editor icon in the Dock, but I got the same result.
I can't recall having this problem previously and would appreciate knowing what might be the source of the problem along with a suggested fix.

I took a clue from both of your responses. I exported a copy of the original RAW file to my desktop. Then I went to PSE Editor and clicked File/Open and selected the RAW file on the desktop. This automatically changed the Format setting to Camera Raw. I then clicked Open and lo and behold my RAW file opens in Camera Raw!
I’m now where I want to be to edit this image in Camera RAW, but I never before had to go around the horn like this to get there! This is very similar to the procedure I follow when I edit jpegs in Camera Raw.
I’m happy to report that this workaround did the job, but I have no idea why it was necessary in this instance. Hopefully this issue will be confined to this one particular iPhoto sub-library!

Changing data in InfoCube or DSO??

Hello Gurus,
is it possible to change the Data contents either in an InfoCube or in a DSO. I am loading data from R/3 first into the DSO and then into the InfoCube. The data seems to be redundant in the source system and i would like to change certain records for testing my query. Pls help.
POINTS WILL BE AWARDED!!
Regards,
SD

Hi,
If you have taken the data through the PSA to the ODS, and the request exists in the PSA, then delete the request in the ODS, change the date in PSA and then load the same request back to the ODS using reconstruction.
You can also delete data in the cube and do a full update into the cube form the ODS with the changed data.
Couple of other options:
1. You can create a self reference on the ODS and in the routine hard code some values or pick them up from another ODS.
2. You can load a flat file into ODS with the values you want.
3. This is extreme. An ODS is a table, you can get table write authorisation and directly write into the ODS table, using SE11. This then takes you away from the wonderful world of data loading etc...and will mean that to make subsequent productive use of the ODS you will need to delete all data.
cheers....

PSE 8 editor not responding

After I edit a photo with PSE 8 Editor and try and save the edit, Editor goes white (not reponding) for several seconds then finally completes the edit. What is causing this delay?
Thanks,
Phil

In PSE editor under Edit->Preferences: check Performance settings:
*taking the cursor/mouse on each option words will display the description of that option:
Modify the default settings as per your needs:
1) Set the total % PSE can use of available RAM.
2) reduce the number of history states (Undo states)
3) Under scratch disks area in case you have more than 1 drive do check so it can use memory
from more than 1 drives of your machine.
After making this changes close PSE and launch again.
I am sure performance should improve. Let me know if you have any comments.

PSE 8 Editor does not open

PSE 8 editor has stopped opening. I've tried opening it from the organizer and from the welcome page. The loading-the-editor box pops up like it's going to open, but then the loading box goes away with no editor opening. I tried un-installing and reinstalling the program to no avail. The computer has Windows 7, 64-bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated... the PSE organizer portion is pretty worthless without the editor!

It sounds like you could be experiencing a conflict with a scanner driver.
Go back the Program Files (x86) >>Plug-ins>>Import/Export and delete the TWAIN driver.
Elements will work without it, but if you have scanner and want to scan directly PSE you'll need to install an up to date driver from the manufacturer's web site.
If you don’t use a scanner there’s nothing to worry about.
If that doesn’t work you may need to re-build the preferences.
You do that by holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift whilst simultaneously clicking Edit on the welcome screen.
When you see a pop-up behind the welcome screen click yes, to delete settings.
Then re-start Elements and it will re-build the preferences.

PSE 11 Editor Won't Open Due to my "tampering"

Photo Elements 11 Editor won’t open. (I also have PSE 6 and Editor now won’t open in it). I have Windows XP. Editor was working fine until I was trying to get my Viveza 2 plug-in into PSE 11 (I had it in PSE6 and all was fine). I looked all over internet and could not find answer. Went into PSE 11 Editor screen and from one of the tabs I saw a place for plug-ins—you could browse for folder/file of plug-in (or so I thought). I went to Viveza folder inside my NIK folder and clicked it. After that --- Editor no longer loads in PSE 11 or 6. I have tried resetting Preferences—no help. I don’t even know what tab I used in Editor since I cannot open it. Any thoughts? I thought about uninstalling and reinstalling but think nothing will change since PSE6 was affected too. Need to change whatever I did to the file.
Any thoughts?? Thanks!

Try these solutions to see if any of these work.
If none of them works, let me know.
Solution1:
Close Elements. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file. Click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
Solution2:
In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
Solution3:
In case that does not work too, you may try this.
Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
