To add pictures to iPhoto: Open iPhoto>File>import to iPhoto > choose photo(s) for importing into iPhoto


To create a new iPhoto album: Highlight the photo(s) you've just imported while viewing them in iPhoto and then click File>new album> Name the album


I'm not sure about how to edit the date tags for the actual photos themselves using iPhoto but if it's just the album itself that needs to display the correct date you can do that when naming (or renaming) the album, i.e." My dog Sadie - Jan 2014"


If you need to change the date tag for an actual photo, try the iPhoto room here at ASC if no one provides an answer on this thread.


Good luck!
