iPod: Inaccurate dates on photos synced from iPhoto

When you sync photos from iPhoto to your iPod, the photo date displayed may be inaccurate; you may see one or both of the following:

• The date at the top of the iPod screen displays Dec 2000 for all photos.
• The full-resolution copies of the photos on the iPod are stored in this folder hierarchy: /iPodname/Photos/Full Resolution/2001/01/01 (where iPodname is the name of your iPod).

To resolve this issue:

1. Download and install the iPhoto Updater.
2. Open iPhoto.
3. Quit iPhoto.
4. Open iTunes.
5. Enable Disk Mode on the iPod.
6. Quit iTunes.
7. Drag these folders to the Trash:
   • /iPodname/Photos/
   • ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/iPod Photo Cache/
     Note: The tilde "~" refers to your Home directory. For more information, see "Mac OS X: Using Your Home Directory."
8. Open iTunes; a message appears, indicating that the iPod is linked to another photo library or folder.
9. Click Yes to add all your photos back to the iPod.

You can then disable Disk Mode on the iPod if you want.
