Touch File Date and Time für Mac

With Touch File Date and Time application you can easily change the creation and modification dates and times of files and folders, or extract metadata (Exif, IPTC, XMP) from images, file names or XMP companion files.

Touch is the name of the program that can be used to change the date and time of folders and files from the command line. This application has a similar range of functions, but the desired changes can be made much more conveniently and extensively.

The modern and clear user interface allows you to drag folders and files into the application. You can specify whether the files should be edited immediately or only after clicking a button. In this way, many files and folders can be edited very quickly.

Features:

• This application changes the creation and modification date and time of folders and files as needed.
• Exif, IPTC and XMP metadata of images can be taken as creation and/or modification date and/or time.
• If companion files (.xmp) are present, the data they contain can be used to change the date and/or time of the corresponding files.
• Sometimes it can be useful to change the date and/or time of files relatively. This is the case, for example, if there are photos whose date of recording is shifted by one or more hours because they were taken in a different time zone.
• Date and time can be taken from the file name. This can be especially useful when the dates of image files need to be changed. The following formats are supported:
  • YYYY[ -_./]MM[ -_./]DD hh[ -_./:]mm[ -_./:]ss
  • YYYY[ -_./]MM[ -_./]DD hhmmss
  • YYYYMMSS hhmmss
• You can change the date and time individually or together, use the current date and time, or enter any date and time yourself.
• You decide whether to edit folders and/or files. Hidden files and folders can be included or excluded from editing as you wish.
• Decide whether packages (e.g. apps) should be treated like folders or like individual files.
• The result of the editing is clearly displayed immediately after the change.
• The application remembers your settings for the next call.
