image browser "memory card utility" downloading to wrong date folder

HBmark

Mac OSX 10.7, Image Browser 6.9.0.3 (9L)

I own 5Dmarkii and 60D.  When I insert memory card, Memory Card Utility (1.7.0.0.9L) launches.  I select Download, and program transfers to my computer.  No fancy settings, just standard.

 

Both cameras date setting is correct, and image efix data is correct for date and time shot.  Computer system date and time correct.

 

Pictures taken prior to 5:00pm are filed in a folder with previous days date.  Photos after 5:00pm are filed in correct days folder.

 

Driving me nuts..... Help please

I did the same thing: updated to the lastest DDP and EOS Utility but to no avail. My my MacPro is up todate as well (OS 10.92). So I manually drag 'n drop the dated files into the correct folders and all is well.

If you are 100% sure camera time and time zone are correct, double check because it is in militay time format on the camera. I would restart my firmware in the camera, this willl wipe out all stored settings and you will have reset everthing. You can find this in the manual or contact Canon support.

Times are 100% correct in the Exif data on individual image files. I repeat, the individual image fiels all have the correct tie and date. The images are merely sorted into the wrong folder dates when EOS Utility downloads them.

Tim, I actually missed your post and just noticed others posted.  Please review this again, or get us some Canon help.  Lots of views and no solutions. I at least feel a little better that I am not alone, but this takes extra time to correct every upload and it is a pain.  This is a software issue and not a camera or firmware issue as impacts both my 5Dmii and 60D.  If you can't help, could you please send this up ot a software specialist who can?

I agree, it's an EOS Utility issue and happens with my 60D, 70D, 6D and 5D MKII. It started in Mac OS 10.8x and continued with the same behavior under Mavericks. I've gotten used to manually dragging the files into folders (use list view so you see dates) but auto folder generation with correct folder dates would be nice...
