I want to keep the create date and location when using airdrop to send photos from iPhone to mac
I read some of the posts, but don't understand all this about meta data. I don't understand why the date created, date modified, and date last opened are all the same in Finder. Why have differentiated categories if the correct data doesn't show up in them? I opened pictures in preview but have no idea how to find the original created date. Where do I look for that info? It shouldn't be that difficult for me to identify the date of a picture of my grandson when I finally download it from my iphone5s (12.1) (Photos) and transfer it to mac (el Capitan 10.11.6) or even download it from the cloud to mac. I don't have a photo app on the Mac. AirDrop works fine, but the date changes. We had iPhoto on our previous mac and didn't like how it worked. How do I get the date and location to transfer with the photo? What app do I need on my Mac or iPhone to make this happen? Thanks jj
