On old cameras or scanned in photos the incorrect date or no date is set. You can change the date timestamp on the photo if you wish. There are 2 ways. The first way is more convenient if you want to set a few images into different dates. The second way is faster if you wish to set a group of images to the same date.

Changing Date & Time Stamp on images with different dates:

1. Select the thumbnails of the image or images you wish to have the same date.
2. Open up the Properties Pane (View | Properties)
3. Select the Date/Time: checked box and then click on each element in the date (month, day, year, etc.) and switch each element to your desired date.
4. Repeat for other images. I would suggest working in a folder and do all images that you want to do then go on to the next step.
5. Select all the images that you changed the dates for.
6. Choose Tools | Batch Adjust Time Stamp
7. Choose EXIF date/time original and choose Next
8. n the New time stamp box: Choose Use different date and time .
9. In the Select date and time: box: Choose ACD database date and time
10. Choose Adjust Time Stamp
11. Choose Done
