I'm trying to update a bunch of photos (over 300) from my recent trip to Trinidad for Carnival (it was a blast... as usual). My partner had the date screwed up on his camera so I would like to fix them so they sort out correctly in iPhoto (I've already imported them). The only way I can figure out how to change the date in iPhoto is by right-clicking on each photo and choosing Batch Update... which is a royal pain in the ass. Anyone know of a simpler way of doing this?

1.
you could probably use automator to do the job

or

2.
you can use xnview a free browser with editing features:
XnView
in versioin 1.91 (current version is 1.92) you cannot select a folder and change IPTC data off all images in there BUT you can select any number of images and change their IPTC data in a single operation.

to do that you can either right-click and select the IPTC data option from the context menu or you can find it as a sub-option under metadata in the application menus.
