Question about Olympus EVOLT E-500 Digital Camera

Copying photos to CD in the order they were taken, by date.

I started vacation 4/23 and ended on 5/02. When I view the photos that were taken each day,(on a 2 gig flash card) those that were taken on 5/01 and then 5/02 are followed by those taken 4/23,24 etc. When I try to send the pics to a CD, it does the same thing. It always puts the smallest day number first, even if that number falls much later in the picture taking sequence. Is there a way to record to disc in the actual order taken? Thank you very much, Don

Change the date on your camera to the english date setting, for example 01/10/07 for the 1st October 2007. This sequence will solve your problem. Cheers, Phil (Liverpool, England)

The only way to do this is to right click on each image and rename it to the day sequence you wish or better still simply number the with a 3 digit sequence -001 002 003 etc., Once you have got the hang of it it is surprising how quick you can get So you retain the original number and put the sequence number in front like this 001-4/23 002-4/23 etc., for that day then 001-24/4 0024/24 and so on You then have them in numerical order in daily batches

Uploaded pictures are out of order

After downloading the photos to your computer then click on Date created at the top of the your picture folder. The photos will the sort by the date the photos were taken starting from the earliest date. If you click on Date created again it will sort by the latest date the photos were taken.

How do i date stamp photos?

One way would be to use the vacation date feature. Refer to the "Recording which day of the vacation you take the picture" section of the manual (page 54 in my copy).

All current digital cameras record the date and time (and a lot more) with each image. Just about all photo cataloging/viewing/editing programs can show you this data. Depending on the program and printer, you may print the date on the picture, in the margins, or on the back.

If you need a manual, you can download one from the manufacturer's web site at

Hello, I have a Coolpix S560 camera that I noticed that the date was not set correctly when I took photos yesterday, while on vacation. Is there a way that I can change the date on the photos that I have...

Not easily. Once the date stamp is on the picture, those pixels are the same as any other pixel. You can edit the photos using photo editing software, the same way you might replace one person's face with another's.

My Canon digital camera puts the date and time on the photo, but when I sent away for prints (used Kodak.com) the prints were just stamped with the day the print was made, not the date the photo was taken....

When you download the pics to your computer and view them, is the date and time on the pics then? If not, then your camera is not including the info on the pic itself.

My pictures are out of order. how can i fix that?

First, are you trying to view the photos on your camera, or is this after you've downloaded them onto your computer?

I took a look at my Cyber-Shot and it looks like it sorts photos strictly by the numbering sequence, not by date. I couldn't find a way to prioritize it to view by date in the playback menus either. Have you tried viewing them in index mode? You can do this by pushing the "Home" button while in playback mode. From there you can pick either single, index or slide show mode. If you have already tried this, do the photos still show up out of sequence?

If you are trying to view your photos on your computer, it's a simple fix, and it's only slightly different from Mac to PC. When you have the folder open containing all the photo files, simply click on the field at the top of the columns that you want to view them by, i.e., "file size", "file type", "date modified", etc.

Photos loaded to Kodak completely out of order! Help!

The simplest way to do this is to make sure you set the date and time correctly on the camera. Then, when you open the pictures in list form, just go to view and arrange them in order of date taken. The computer will arrange them for you.

Downloading photos to computer

Many cameras have a "Setup" option where you can specify how the camera names or labels each new photograph. Other buttons or menu options you can look for would be Settings, File Names probably under a Menu option.

The other thing to consider is, how is your computer sorting the files? By name, date taken, date modified, size? Perhaps buy changing the way you're viewing the order of the files, you can make it match the order they were taken in.
