GSTEINER  I don't know of any other program that can "set the creation date to the time that a digital camera picture was taken." I use it all the time, because simply copying jpegs from a flash card often doesn't get the creating date right.

With this application it's a breeze. I drag folders with thousands of pictures and it corrects the date in seconds.

If anyone knows of a freeware that does just that, go ahead and post its name.

MINOR7FLAT5  I use a program called jhead:

It's a command-line tool, but if that's your gig, it's very easy to do things like copy EXIF date to file date, or copy file date to EXIF date. I do the latter when I scan old photos—that's how I found that FAT32 doesn't do dates before 1980 :-).

KPE  I've been using this for years. So long I can't even remember when I bought it. Never been charged to upgrade. It does exactly what is advertised. No problems ever.

ANONYMOUS  Hacking in ResEdit? Give me a break. I haven't needed to hack anything in ResEdit in 15 years. There are 300 programs to modify Type and Creator and Dates, etc. and half of them are free..
