Q: Photo date update not effective

Dear all,

 

Last week, I updated my photos EXIF because the date were wrong (March 2012 instead of October 2013). I see in Aperture & in Finder that my photo & EXIF have been updated accordingly. They are all dated on October 2013.

 

I sync my iPhone with iTunes and here is the problem. Some photo remains dated on 2012... I think there is a Cache or something like that in iPhoto but I rebuilded 3 times my Library and the problem is still remaining...

 

I don't know what to do. I would really apreciate to have the right date on the photo. I'm making a world tour and that's all my memories

 

Regards,

Pierre

iPhoto '11, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

    Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac? If so what version? Exactly how did you update the date? In the info window in iPhoto is the date correct?

    First thanks for anwsering,

     

    This involve iPhoto '11 on OS X Mavericks (10.9.1).

    I updated the dates through aperture with  "Ajusting Date & Time" in the  Metadata menu

    In iPhoto & Aperture dates are updated as well as in Finder they all show photo dated in October 2013.

     

    The issue only happen owhen I'm syncing my iPhone and my iPad.

    you could try the iTunes or iPhone or iPad forums since it appears that iPhoto is fine

     

    Did you check the modify original box when you adjusted the dates?

    I'm deeply conviced that the problem is from iPhoto.

     

    iTunes don't store photo informations. And i delete my photo on my device before each transfer... So the corupted information comes from iPhoto. In a cache , config or db file

    Right click on the iPHoto library ad show package contents - find the iPod photo cache and drag it to the desktop - MAKE NO other changes - close the library and try again

     

    Once you are find trash the cache on the desktop

    WOW!  this is a fun guessing game - in order to stop wasting time making suggestions only to find that you have tried them multiple times how about telling us what you have done and the results of each

    I will revert with this list of action. I try to play to the dete tive and feel that these field of the AlbumLibrary.xml are wrong sometimes :

     

    <key>DateAsTimerInterval</key>

                                  <real>353006390.000000</real>

    <key>DateAsTimerIntervalGMT</key>

                                  <real>353009990.000000</real>
