Mar 16, 2016  2. If you think a clean install will help, which version of OSX do I choose for my aging machine. I need at least 10.7 for Lyn, and 10.8 for shootShifter but I could possibly live without this. But if I recall Lion was a battery wrecker, so I'm not inclined to go for that. I'd obviously like the latest and greatest, is this ok on an HDD? ShootShifter for Mac Rename and edit photo EXIF data instantly If like me you've got hundreds of generically named photos littering your photo collection, then shootShifter may prove your salvation.For professional photographers, this can be a real pain especially if the EXIF data is all generic.

Once again I've forgot to adjust my cameras for daylight savings time meaning that lots of files are 1 hour behind. I bought A better Finder Attributes for this, and believe I need to adjust both creation and modifications dates.However, in Adobe Bridge the time stays the same. I believe the information displayed there is what's contained in each RAW file's XML file.

I'm sure I could solve the problem by deleting the XML files (Bridge would probably create new XML files based on the information found in the image files), but since I've edited some of those files using Adobe Camera RAW I don't want to lose any of that. In a previous thread along the same subject I was suggested a 14-day trial version of Photo mechanic which can do this (not sure if it handles the XML issues though), but it's expired long ago of course. So do I need to manually edit the text inside the XML files or is there a better way? I can't believe there aren't easily available tools for this sort of thing as I can't be the only one who forgets to change a camera's time whenever needed.

I edited away some important findings in my previous posting.I noticed that there might be a third file-date which I so far haven't been able to change (ABFA has a setting for changing 'JPEG EXIF time stamps', but as the title implies it won't work for anything but JPG files). Motionwrote:Does anyone reading have a solution (and explanation) to the above problem?The explanation is simple. The camera writes the shooting date and time in the EXIF data, and that is different from the file creation date. That's how you can create a JPEG from a RAW file, and still get the correct shooting time rather than the time you converted the RAW file and created the JPEG.There are quite a few applications that can change this EXIF info. You noted PhotoMechanic, but that's pretty expensive. Aperture and iPhoto both can do it, so can Lightroom. I'm sure there are more.

Birdbrain: no problemI've heard about EXIFtool, but never gave it a try because I find the command line mostly cumbersome and complicated, but just gave it a quick try. I see I need to spend some time figuring it out, but it does indeed look like it can solve my problem -and for free. I do however wish someone would come up with a graphic front-end for it thoughJohanfoto: I didn't know Lightroom could fix filedates. Actually I bought Lightroom, but haven't gotten round to using it as I'm so used to organizing files and folders to my liking in Adobe Bridge. I like the fact that I can give folders descriptive names and not need to rely on any specific software or computer platform to be able to view/find them. Perhaps I can do both. Again some software I need to spend some time figuring out.Having said that, where do I go in order to fix those erronous file dates in Lightroom?

Strike1: my mistake, Shootshifter actually did work with my Canon RAW (.CR2) files and from a quick test it appears it actually does change the time correctly! Thanks for your suggestion My only minor gripe is that it won't edit the EXIF data inside Photoshop (.PSD) files, but I can live with that.Birdbrain: Too bad about 'A Better Finder Attributes' because I bought it specifically in order to fix photo file dates.

Perhaps I should contact them and suggest they add this feature in a future update. As for EXIFtool: it does indeed seem like a very comprehensive application, but I dare say cumbersome for the average (non geeky) photographer. I did however come across an interesting site which describes how to make Automator actions for it. Without having read it extensively I believe it means you could create an action (e.g. 'time +1 hour (daylight savings)' etc.) and simply drag the image(s) you want fixed to its dock icon, bypassing all the complicated command-line stuff!Noirdesir: I tried it out (LR3) and indeed it changed the EXIF data, but those changes did not appear when viewing the same file in Adobe Bridge afterwards, so I can only conclude that LR3 doesn't change anything inside the file itself, but in the LR catalog or something.

In Lightroom that is Metadata/Save Metadata to File (command-S) which will put the new dates in the XMP sidecar, or write them out to the DNG if you saved as that. Bridge should pick them up I think. That's strange. I saved (CMD-S) the metadata in Lightroom after modifying the dates and sure enough the EXIF times in Bridge were correct now. But for some reason the 'Date file created' and 'date file modified' were still unchanged.Shootshifter on the other hand changesalldates as displayed in Bridge (Date created, Date file created, Date file modified as well as the EXIF dates: Date time, Date original and Date modified). Except for not handling Photoshop files it seems to do what it's supposed to, and for free.But I'm still curious about EXIFtool, especially after reading how one can make Automator actions for it (which would make it even simpler to use than Shootshifter, by simply dragging the files needed to be changed over to the appropriate actions icon).

My only concern is if it will also update dates in the XML files (if present)?But to summarize (to those who have just joined the thread): Shootshifter seems (so far) to be the tool which actually works and is reasonably easy to use. Just remember to go to 'Preferences', select the 'General' tab and turn on 'Transfer EXIF-tag changes to existing XMP-data'. That's strange.

I saved (CMD-S) the metadata in Lightroom after modifying the dates and sure enough the EXIF times in Bridge were correct now. But for some reason the 'Date file created' and 'date file modified' were still unchanged.That's intentional. You didn't change the file, only the metadata that belong to the file. Whether these metadata are stored next to the file (.CR2 with XMP) or inside the file (.DNG) is irrelevant.The general idea is also that no application (or human) should ever rely on the creation or modification date of an image file to sort by or find the capture date if the EXIF data are available. Too many things could alter the file creation or modification dates, in particular any file conversion (raw -tiff, jpeg, resizing).

EXIF should be reliable, file system dates not. Heck, I see in Bridge that all I have to do to get the modified date/time to change is to alter any metadata! I've successfully fixed the time/date of those Canon RAW files using Shootshifter. For the Quicktime Movie files (.MOV) which also had their times wrong, but didn't contain any EXIF data (and thus weren't recognized by Shootshifter) I used 'A better Finder attributes'.Now I've located several folders of Canon RAW (.CR2) files which I tried to fix a while back without success and I can't quite figure out what to do. Shootshifter doesn't see anything that needs to be changed and A better Finder attributes can't handle EXIF data for RAW files. But then again it's a little confusing with all those different time/date entries. Here are the date entries (as shown in Bridge) for one of those files:File propertiesDate created: 3/12/09, 23:28:23Date file created: 2/12/09, 23:28:23(CORRECT DATE!)Date file modified: 26/12/09, 22:55.44Camera data (EXIF)Date time: 3/12/09, 23:28:23Date time original: 3/12/09, 23:28:23Date time digitized: 3/12/09, 23:28:23The correct date is the 'Date file created' entry.

In other words, my shots are all taken a day earlier than what the EXIF data says. I've noticed that if I delete the.XML file belonging to the.CR2 (RAW) file the EXIF 'Date time original' and 'Date time original' gets corrected, so I guess this means that those dates are embedded directly in the file and should be considered as corrected (I'm not sure when the XML file will re-read the EXIF data when changed though. 'Purge cache for selection' in Bridge doesn't seem to do it, but I don't want to delete all of those XML files either as some of them contain Camera RAW edits.

And I suppose 'date file modified' is the date when I tried to fix the dates for all my files (they all have the same modified date).So how should I fix these files dates? I believe I solved my own problem myself!In case others have the same issues, here's my solution:UsingShootshifterI first ensured the XML files would be updated along with the RAW files (go to 'Shootshifter'-'Preferences'-'General', and turn on 'Transfer EXIF-tag changes to exisiting XMP data').Having added the folder with the wrong dates I proceeded by adding one hour to all files, then subtracting one hour to all my files. This apparently forces the information to become updated correctlyTo do this, click once on your image folder icon/name in Shootshifter to select it. A 'complete folder' section on the top right-hand side appears which allows you to globally add or subtract anything.

Be sure to press the 'Save' button in that section after having added the time, and again after having subtracted the time.Oh, need I mention that you shouldalwayswork on a backup of your files!
