I told it to change the creation date to the modification date, and it did so, and the Finder displayed the file by the new creation date. I did find this program-A Better Finder Attributes-at VersionTracker: I finally found some images with a bad creation date (kMDItemContentCreationDate = 16:00:00 -0800), imported some into iPhoto and ran the script, but it said everything was fine and the date the script is supposed to change matches the EXIF date. The date reset from Joe's iPhoto scripts I gave the link to above. I thought I had some pix with messed up creation dates, but can't find them to try all this out. KMDItemProfileName = "Camera RGB Profile"īy comparing the actual metadata with what is shown in Finder, what is shown in iPhoto, then use the Applescript and check the metadata again you might be able to see if the appropriate dates get changed. KMDItemCreator = "Adobe Photoshop CS Macintosh" KMDItemContentTypeTree = ("public.jpeg", "public.image", "public.data", "em", "ntent") KMDItemContentModificationDate = 09:40:08 -0700 KMDItemAcquisitionModel = "Canon PowerShot S50" Users/francine/Pictures/Summer06/Mustang/IMG_2528-72.jpg NoobiX:~ francine$ mdls /Users/francine/Pictures/Summer06/Mustang/IMG_2528-72.jpg Hit the spacebar and then drag one of your files into the Terminal window and drop. To see what the Finder is seeing you can use the Terminal, launch it from your Utilities folder. Try his AppleScript and see if it does copy this date to the file creation date in the metadata, and thus corrects the problem in Finder. Evidently iPhoto is reading the EXIF data.
