where the hell is the creation date?

Hi all

I arrived at the end of my (not very extended in any case) Wit...

I export jpeg taken with cameras such as the Coolpix 900 devices and 995 acient.

Of course, LR 4 does not write capture dates, so I started to investigate what was going on.

So here's the situation:

1. I see the dates of capture in LR left upper gallery above the image (i button) but

2. no capture was on panels of metadata to the right, and

3. no date capture when the original for opening files is with the viewer online Exifviewer or Jeffrey.

???

Where LR becomes the capture date of?

And then I get these and put them somewhere for export?

Later, I would like to use the dates of capture as part of the exported jpeg names (using A Better Finder attributes or any equivalent of PC)

Can someone help me please!

Mike

LR 3 and 4 are buggy during the manipulation of images which the metadata do not capture dates (EXIF:DateTimeOriginal).  For these files, the time shown next to the image of the library is not the date of capture - this is the creation date of the file (such as defined by Windows or Mac OS).

In order to obtain a date of capture, stored in the original file or the exported versions, you will need to give the command Medata > change the Capture time.  Often, everything you need to do is select all the photos that do not have the time, do change the Capture time and then click all change a capture, and the pictures will now have their capture time adjusted to the time of the file last modification time.  However, I strongly recommend that you take a backup of these pictures first, because changing the Capture time can not be undone in LR.

  • Export videos without losing the creation date

    In pictures 1.0.1 I am trying to export worth several years of videos to put on an external hard drive to save space on my main machine, but when I export them (via drag + drop on the desktop), they lose their date of creation - and, therefore, their context. They have different types of files, but a digital SLR, the iphones and old camcorders.

    I found more questions concerning the pictures, where the creation date is stored in the EXIF data for the photo, but I can't find similar data for these videos using "Get Info" or Inspector of QT movie.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • Adobe prelude ingest the creation Date changes

    I'm having a problem with Adobe prelude. I shot some interviews last weekend and tried the app iPad prelude Live Logger to construct markers in real time during interviews. I have been very wary of the camera (5Diii) and iPad to exact date/time/time zone schedule.

    I expected it would be easy as a prelude to import the identifier "metadata" iPad newspaper, but I discovered prelude bad reads the file creation Date. In fact, I have no idea where he is at the time of creation of.

    Here's what Finder is properly showing the creation date of the file:

    Screen Shot 2015-11-02 at 11.23.22 AM.png

    But the same clip in prelude shows this:

    Screen Shot 2015-11-02 at 11.24.31 AM.png

    As you can see, good day, wrong time!

    And the error I get when trying to apply this .xmp file Logger live to the clip wrote "the marker... from the associated metadata Panel isn't in the fury of time of the clip... and cannot be added". Which I suppose is because prelude read the bad weather!

    Any ideas?

    Thanks to accentuate the problem.

    I confirmed that prelude does not display the correct values for created/modified Date/time.

    I refer to the question within my team. We will probably address this issue.

  • Change the creation date

    I have different PHP files in different folders. I want to organize them by Date of creation. But I need to change the creation date in some cases. Can I do this?

    I select a file and the file > read > creation:

    but I can't change that here. Is it possible to change the date in "Create."

    The date of creation of a file cannot be changed.

  • Why Lightroom does not change the creation date of the file? (Mac OS)

    I find that Lightroom changes the creation of files present during the incorporation of metadata. I noticed that this behavior is different from the bridge, which reaches to write metadata changes to the file without affecting the creation date, affecting only the modification date.

    I read in other threads that it doesn't matter when even because moving files between disks will write a new file and, therefore, a new date of creation, but if this can be true in some systems (I don't know) is certainly not the case with Mac OS. For example, I have files dating back at least 1998 which have been moved from disc to disc to disc but still retain their original creation date. Which is as it should be. For many of my older images, there seems to be no capture embedded recognizable don't date anyway, so the creation date of the file is the single timestamp.

    It seems quite logical that the modified date of a file must be updated to take into account that the file has been modified (for example if adding metadata), but it seems to make sense that the date of creation of the file should be kept as the date, this file has been created. Changing them both on the same date seems to be a needless loss of information.

    Some would say that the process of adding metadata to a file creates a new file, the creation date must be updated to reflect this. But I would say that the creation date should be which would include a normal user as the creation date. We do not expect the creation date to change everything simply because a file is rewritten to the disk (for example when the defragmentation), however technically accurate, it would be to say that it is a newly created file. And the difference in behavior between Bridge and Lightroom shows that there is some confusion on this subject.

    Photo software ignores generally the operating system created by file-modification dates, and when he is not ignoring them, treated generally in a non-standard way that varies from one program to a program.  Rather than rely on the dates of the files of the operating system, the photo industry has defined fields of metadata with all sorts of specific photos dates: capture date/time (when the shutter button is depressed), date/time of scanning (when a movie or a print image was scanned digitally), date/time software photo altered image or metadata date/time of GPS location.   While some photo software will attempt to maintain the dates of file-created and - updated, many programs and services Web will not (including, but not limited to, LR).  In addition, many utilities files not always to preserve created and set dates to day that you move, copy it, backup and restore files.

    Therefore, I highly recommend that if you care photo dates and times (as I do), so no matter which photo software you use, you store the dates of capture in pictures industry standard metadata by using the tools provided by LR and other photo software.   In this way, you migrate the program to the program over the years, are you more likely to preserve that important metadata.

    Old photos and scans without that metadata, when you first import into LR, LR will assume that the capture time is the hour of the modified file.  LR to rewrite the date of capture of metadata in the file by selecting and making the metadata you can do > edit Capture time, clicking OK and then by metadata > save metadata to file. You can do it in batch - choose all your old photos and make metadata > edit Capture time, click OK, to metadata > save metadata to file.  LR will affect its time updated each file capture time.   If you want to set the time captured in the file create time, select this option in the window change the Capture time before clicking OK.  But beware that many Windows and Mac file utilities cannot preserve create time, even if they retain changed time, in order to create your files time can be wrong.   And of course, make sure that your backups are up to date and valid before making any new procedure file with which you aren't familiar.

    But if you really want to use non-standard file dates to keep your metadata information, and you want Adobe to modify accordingly the LR, so please give your opinion and vote on it in the Adobe official feedback forum: Bug report: Lightroom modifies the image files creation date. This forum is a user forum in which is rarely involved Adobe, Adobe said they read every post in the forum comments (and sometimes they respond).

  • How to get the creation Date of the site recorded for the footer output (printing to PDF)?

    If you go to Page Setup in Firefox, the option for the footer is the date and/or time of output.

The research that has been done on a computer is out of date of creation down instead. I know that I could add the date by using the custom field for a footer in the Page options but prefer automated sound somehow when you print to a PDF (CutePDF). Please let me know.

  • Adding a layer of text using the creation Date or guest Date

    I want to add a text layer for the date. My problem is if the file has the EXIF info, the script below works, but if the image has no EXIF info (for example, sample sunset sunset in Windows), it will not ask for the date so I can type the date that I love. What I'm doing wrong here?

    "phoTime = monthsArray [dateArray2 [1] - 1] +" "+ dateArray2 [2] + ', ' + dateArray2 [0];"

    var picYr = dateArray2 [0];

  • How can I change the creation date of the file through Labview 2012?

    I want to change the format of the data stored in text files, but I want the dates of the files to stay the same.  Currently, my program creates files with the new dates.

  • How the creation Date to be later than the date of change?

    I am the review of records. (IE m4am, mp3, etc.)  When I open the Properties menu to see what date they were created, the 'Création' date is after the date of "modified".

    This is not unusual with the copied files, when you copy a file the file created date becomes the date of change and the current date (when the file is copied) becomes the date created, copy all the existing files on your computer and you can observe this behavior.

    For some reason, all my photos have had their 'date Created' changed for a date in 2015? I do not have a back-up I can restore (a more 30 000 photos), but both the "date modified" and the date of "Last opened" remain as the original "date of creation".

    Is it possible to copy the 'date Modified' or the 'last opening' to replace the 'created date '?

    ANY suggestions much appreciated.

    Thank you and happy new year,

    I use a MacBook Air with the latest Photos and operating system installed.

    Where you see the 'creation Date' in the Photos?  The information about the Photos Panel is only indicating the date of capture integrated in the file original image IPTC and EXIF tags.

    File creation date that you see in the Finder, if you access the originals using the Finder, may change, if your library is synchronized with iCloud. All original image in my library on my MacBook Pro to iCloud retina display a date of creation sometime in July, when I downloaded the iCloud library.

  • Keep the original creation date when copying or moving files (Windows XP/7, Windows Server 2003/2008)

    I know that the default behavior of (any version) Windows when copying or moving files, is that Windows makes everything first creates a new folder, copy the content, and when you move files, deletes the source after successful copy folder. Unlike Mac OS, where mechanisms of copy and move assume that when you copy a folder, the properties of the copied folder should have the same properties as the source folder, so to keep the original date of creation!

    Is it possible to change this behavior in Windows? I know that Robocopy in Windows Server 2008 has an option to keep the dates of creation of record, but I would like to know if you can change Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 behave similarly.

    It is very annoying that when you restore or copy a folder, the new folder has the date of the creation of the current date instead of the date of original creation.  People tend to look for old records that exist is no longer when you copied or moved the files.

    Hey E Kyung,
     
    There is no way to do this in windows. The design of Windows, this is the creation date refers to the file, while the date of the amendment relates to the content. If the creation date is really important to you, you can set after the copy with a utility.

    The easiest is to right-click on the file and drag it to the destination folder. you will be asked to copy or move. If you move, the creation date will not change.

    Yes, Robocopy is available in Windows 7.

  • How can I keep 'creation date' to copy the files?

    I copy a lot of files to cd and dvd on an external/portable hard drive to save them, but I've found that the 'creation date' and 'date modified' options (in Windows Explorer) are displayed as yesterday's date (the date I copied them to my external hard drive, and not when they were actually created and modified years ago).

    I really need the files, once they are copied, to display the original "creation date", and if possible 'date modified', can anyone tell me how to do what you please?

    I read that I can Zip, copy and unzip them and it should maintain the original dates, but this seems to be a kind of long-term to do things. Y at - it maybe a checkbox somewhere to confirm that you want to keep the original dates before copying them? Also, I am running Windows XP Professional, Version 5.1 (service Pack 3).

    Thank you very much.

    I want to keep the original date the file was created or modified. OR is it just like that? I tried this on two computers that are running windows XP Pro SP2 and a computer that is running Windows 7.

    Hello

    As you download the file as an attachment on an e-mail system, this means that the file is created on the system the day that you have downloaded the file (as it never existed on the system before). Thus, the creation date will be, by default, this date when the file was downloaded to the system. This is normal, you cannot change it.
