Wrong date on screenshots today on 2023-1-1?!

[ToniCH]

My wife reported that her screenshots today are named 2022-1-1.... So, the year is wrong.

I didn't believe it but they are. I then tried it in my iMac and got the same results. Then tried it in my MBP and Macbook. Again, same results.

So, I now have 4 Macs of different models and different Mac OS versions (Lion, HS, Mojave, Catalina) which name the screenshot files with wrong year on the title. The dates and times on all of these machines are correct.

I am located in Europe and I now have one confirmation that other local people have the same problem. What is going on? Any ideas?

I am in the USA, running 12.6.2 on an iMac, and the names on the screenshots have the correct year.

In Europe. CH to be precise. No issues.

Please check the name of the file, not the actual date of the file. Move cursor on top of the thumbnail and you see the problem part of the filename. Or click the thumbnail below and read the filename and time of posting below.

The filename is "Näyttökuva 2022-1-1 kello 22.48.29"

Ps. I now have a confirmation from another user in Finland who has the same problem.

All working fine here in the UK.

Thanks for your input.

Well, that is even more weird then. I wonder why its incorrect in Finland and if the problem exists in some other countries?

Maybe it's just a weird localisation issue? See if it's resolved tomorrow.

Lets hope so and yes, I will.

Haven't seen this one before but its the kind that is quite difficult to detect unless you are really "awake". My wife was as she was doing something where correct date was important.

Yes, it seems the problem has gone away today on second of jan. 👍🏻

Or at least on High Sierra it now works correctly, I assume on others too.
