How to "Set" the date (and time) of a selection of photos. Hi- I'm reasonably new to photos and have started organizing my collection stretching back years. I'd like to know how to "Set" the time for a group of photos. For example - I have a bunch of photos imported for an event, say, on December 25th, 1999, and I'd like to SET all of the photo dates to this day. However, in the photos are some already set on this day, some that did not import properly and the date is set to 2022, some that are scanned back in 2013 (with that as the photo date). So I've tried the standard "ADJUST DATE AND TIME" from the menu. Thing is, it wants to "Adjust" all the photos by the same amount. Not SET THE PHOTOS TO THE SAME DAMN DAY. Been pulling my hair out simply trying to figure out how to SET ALL THE PHOTOS IN A SELECTION to the same date. Anyone have any tips? Thanks!

How to export Photo while keeping the original date? Hi, I would like to know how to export photo and keeping the original date. For example, to export a particular photo, I first chose the photo, right clicked on it and selected "Get Info", the date is 29 March 2022. I then exported the photo using File > Export > Export 1 Photo. I have left all setting untouched. In the folder, the date (created, modified) that associate with the photos have now been updated to the time when I exported the photo. I have trial export with modified option but the result is the same. I even trial drag-and-drop. Please teach me how to export the photo while saving the date time information. Thank you very much, Best, Yoon

Photos has a menu item to shift selected image dates.
