Hi
Still in week one of owning a Mac and decided to learn as well as finally get my pictures up to date
Have a couple of thousand, all just "snaps" mainly of my daughter or partner etc.

I was getting annoyed as, having uploaded them from my Windows PC a lot of them appeared "out of order" with older pics showing at wrong places in my timeline

Looking at these within Finder they all show as having created dates in and around April 2020.
They do however have correct modified dates.

I downloaded an app called "Photo Meta Edit" but I can't change that created date. It remains as was and out of sync
Can anyone advise how, ideally in bulk as have several 100 with wrong date, I can set the dates to be the true date taken ?

Also, can anyone recommend the best duplicate finder for pics that will remove photos that are exactly the same as I think I have loads of them

Cheers

Dunk
