I’ve already learned how to control metadata in Photos so I can get keywords there. I’m happy to avoid Aperture in a new workflow if anyone knows how to get these videos out of Photos, retain original time/date, and be able to rename them to that naming convention. Ultimately I import them into iTunes so I can play them across all my Apple TV’s in the house. I would then apply any metadata and export them to finder. My typical workflow has always been to import all iPhone videos from my family into Aperture and allow it to change the name from the garbage default “ IMG_#” to a sensible “ YYYY- MM- DD at HH- MM- SS AM/ PM” format. There is a simple solution that can be used whether you earn your living with your photos or just like to take a lot of pictures. The screenshot below shows my sample video was recorded on at 10:23pm but on the right it shows created/modified today () with 7:07pm (which is when I downloaded it from iCloud).Įxample: on the left = Photos app time/date | on the right = unmodified original video with today’s time/date We are making the assumption that you know how to move your photos from your iPhone to your Mac, and that your photo library is on your computer’s internal hard drive. It appears any file that is inside iCloud knows what its original creation information is but doesn’t come down when you download that file to your Mac and export it. I just learned an unfortunate reality about Apple Photos.
