![]() ![]() this one tool can do it all but I find it easier to do the file rename with the gui tool ExifRenamer Im using macOS so you may need to translate this to your OS of choice. Here is the process I used to correct my images frustratingįor files that did not have and exif date I was lucky that the original file was saved in a date format like YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.png Some of my files did not contain an exif original date so when copied to another drive the file modified date was updated moving the files to the most current date. simply updating the exif file modification time doesn’t completely fix the issue.ĭepending on the device the image was created on and the type of encoding some exif data may not always be present. The problems come when trying to correct this. in fact you can always revert to the original image on IOS. you don’t see this in IOS because when you edit an image it keeps the original image intact. nextcloud and every other tool out there uses this file modification date to show the files sorted by modification date not create date. if you edit a file the file modification is updated. every time you copy a file from one disk to another the file modification information is updated. When things can get funky is when you’re trying to manipulate your collection of images. When adding images to the nextcloud environment everything is dated and sorted by date correctly if it is a brand new picture taken at that time. This is more of my findings than a support question… I’m hoping this can help other people…
