How do I change the date on my Mac for photos dated in 2010 when the pictures weren't even taken until 2014? My photo stream on my phone doesn't show that date, but my Mac does. There are several hundred pictures so I'd like to do it all at once. I don't even know how to flag pictures. I've tried to figure that out. I did choose the 1st picture and was able to change the date & time and it did move to the 2014 section. I would like to do the other hundreds of pictures all at the same time if possible. Thank you.

iMac Pro, iOS 12.1

After you select the photos use the menu item "Image" in the main menu bar. In the "Image" menu select "Adjust date & Time".

Change a photo’s date and time

You can change the date and time associated with a photo—for example, if you travel to another time zone, and your camera assigns dates and times that are correct for your home, but not the place you visited.

In the Photos app on your Mac, select the photos you want to change.

Choose Image > Adjust Date and Time.

Enter the date and time you want in the Adjusted field.

Click a time zone on the map and choose the closest city, if necessary.

Click Adjust.
