  1. Photo files showing wrong time


    I have recently noticed that when I upload photos from an SD card to my computer that the time stamps are always off be a few-several hours. Here's an example: in the screenshot below the timestamp on the photo is 2:23 AM, but this photo was taken at 2:23 PM. The date is correct, but the times are all off. I checked some older files and the same issue has been happening for a while. I don't know exactly when the issue started but files that were saved on my old computer and imported to the new one did not have this issue.Is there a way to fix the problem for future uploads?Thanks

    :)

  2. Shows the wrong time

    Hi Jonas,

    If you live in a region that does not observe daylight saving time (DST), but the Windows setting for that time zone
    does adjust for daylight saving time, we recommend that you do not clear the
    Automatically adjust clock for Daylight Saving Time check box in the
    Time Zone Settings dialog box. Instead, we suggest that you select a time zone that does not observe daylight saving time and that has the same Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) offset as the current time zone.

    For example, assume that your current time zone is (UTC-06:00) Central Time (US and Canada). There are two time zones that do not observe daylight saving time and that have the same UTC offset (-06:00):

    • (UTC-06:00) Central America
    • (UTC-06:00) Saskatchewan

    To change your time zone setting, follow these steps:

    • In Control Panel, click Clock, Language, and Region.
    • Click Change the time zone.
    • In the Time Zone area of the Date and Time
      dialog box, click Change time zone.
    • In the Time zone list, select a time zone that does not observe daylight saving time and has the same UTC offset as your current time zone.
    • Click OK.
    • Click Apply, and then click OK.

    Let us know how it goes.

    How to get rid of raw file support in windows photo viewer?

    Photo files showing wrong time [​IMG]


    I have downloaded this, and it did not work; photo viewer is not in the list of programs in Open With or Default App. I used option 2 step 3, followed by step 5 to 9.

    iPhone photo import failure. "Something went wrong"

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand you get an error “Something went wrong”, when importing Photos from iPhone using Microsoft Photos App.



    Adding to GoBYU suggestions, here is some additional information that you may want to check.



    Since you are importing 1000’s of photos at a time, this could be the reason you are receiving the error. We would suggest you to importing the photos in batches of 250-300 photos at a time and see if it works for you.



    Couple of our users were also able to fix the issue by changing the file permissions for the Pictures folder. We can also try changing file permissions and see if that makes a difference. Please refer to the steps mentioned below:



    1. Right click on the Pictures folder and select
      Properties.
    2. Click on Security Tab, click on your username and click on
      Edit.
    3. Select Full Control check box and click on
      OK.


    However, if iCloud is enabled on your iOS device, you won’t be able to download your photos or videos. Your images exist on iCloud but not on your device. If you want to open or import these photos or videos to your PC, do so using the iCloud desktop
    app.



    For more information, see
    Import photos and videos from phone to PC
    .



    Let us know the results.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare
