I have an external USB drive (formated as HFS) that I use for backing up important files. I use File Synchronizer to sync folders on my internal drive(s) with their counterparts on this external drive. Today when attempting to sync my Photos folder, I was shocked to see that FS flagged all my photos as needing to be copied to the external drive. It turns out that the reason is that all the files on my external frive suddenly show up as having no Date Modified, which FS interprets as 12/31/1969 :eek:

Does anyone know what may have caused this and how to fix it?
