when I download JPEGS it stores the pictures behind much older photos

When I download photos onto my iMac, it shows the download as a much older photograph - downloaded years ago, but when I click on the old photo the new download is behind it. How can I stop this from happening? It happened on my MacBook Pro, which had to eventually be sent back to Apple for repair. It seems to be happening when I download Raw and Jpegs together. Raw files seem to be okay. Any ideas how I can rectify this at home. I've tried the iPhoto's repair and reloaded Mojave, but no luck so far. Many thanks.

Select one of the thumbnail images and rotate 90˚ in one direction and then rotate back. Then click on the thumbnail and see if it matches the photo that appears. If it does you can do the same to batches of photos in the library till all are fixed.
