Why can't I see EXIF info in XP?

Thanks for posting (was it hosted on a 56k server?!?!) I checked the Advanced tab in XP and it shows nothing, nada, zip. Guess I'll call some friends at MS and see what's going on.

Thanks for taking the time to help. I'll post the resolution just in case this gets searched for in the future.

Don't send support an e-mail. I did about a month ago and never got a reply.
Maybe they are still trying to do ME support. That would take forever.

Solution for lost EXIF date in right click/propertiies

One possible solution would be by running "regedit" and looking at:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpe
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpe​g
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg

There, content Type should be "image/jpeg"
PerceivedType should be "image"

If those entries don't exist just add/create them (they are "string values" inside each key).

Another solution would be to go to the "tools/folder options" drop down menu in "Windwos Explorer" and remove the .jpg, .jpeg and .jpe types from there... the next time you access such a file those entries will be recreated and then all will be working just fine...

...I hope that helped...

the guaranteed way of throttling traffic while I browse on my main machine.

Hey Penguin, I won't mention what I do, but I won't have to send support any e-mail, I'll just walk over and ask them

Need to go check that registry setting now... oh and update the camera's firmware to enable ISO3200 and MLU and FEC on the jump button!

FIXED!

taltosgr is a genius. Regedit showed the proper information under the .JPE key, but not under .JPEG or .JPG. Manually added the information and rebooted - sure enough, everything shows up with all EXIF information on my JPGs now.

Thanks a million!

Are you working on Longhorn Do you have any screenshots?

I could tell you but I'd have to kill you When I get my Athlon64 box up and running in a few weeks I'll post a few pictures of Longhorn x64.

But I DO have a Windows 2003 server running (32) 3.0Ghz 4Mb cache XEON procs with 32Gb of RAM and 96 PCI slots if that's worth anything to ya' Attached to 9Tb of fiber based 15kRPM drives to do with what I want.

I wish I had that! Since you won't tell me:
GO LINUX!

Sorry.

That image does not have any Exif info according to ViewEXIF 1.9

I know that some software has a nasty habit of stripping the Exif data. I use Downloader Pro and let it manage the downloads from my CF reader or even my FlashTrax and the Exif data has always remained intact. Just check any of my image posts.

LOL that's ok. Linux is like the Mac. Great for the 3 things it does

Try scaling MySQL to 32 processors on Linux...

Ah the age old dilema of OS vs. OS vs. OS. Not long ago we were arguing Windows 3.11 for Workgroups vs. OS/2!

BTW, it's about to hail and storm very nastily over me in Ft. Worth. Check out this pic I just took of the clouds. I'm no meteorologist, but they don't look pretty!

(of course I left it on ISO100 handheld so it's a little dark, but you get the idea!)

I have never seen clouds like that! Mac is bad, Very bad. Windows and Linux are good, very good. I was seeing a post on a Webmasters forum about how people think that google is setting up to make a IM and then an OS. I will find it and post it.

That's a pay site...

Adam: The only time I've seen clouds like that is in movies/videos about storm-chasers. You know...them people that chase tornadoes? Keep an eye out for funnels!
