I have a huge number of files that were copied into an old OS X 10.6 server. Problem is there are a large number that came over with a time last opened but no create or modified dates. Is there a basic script to go through and change the create date to the last opened date?

    Where do you see that they have no creation date?

  • Can you copy them again? If so, create a zip or tar file with them; then dates will be preserved

  • Sadly, no - this was done some time ago - and the problem is that the reporting tool is not designed to pick up anything other than Create and Modify :) The lack of dates is apparent when queried in spotlight
