Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of ExifTool 12.48.

What's new in this version:

- Added support for new XMP-photoshop:CameraProfiles structure
- Added a new SonyModelID and Sony LensType
- Decode more tags for the Sony ILME-FX30
- Decode a couple of new Panasonic tags, and improved decoding of others
- Decode STANAG-4609 MISB timed metadata from M2TS videos
- Decode a new Nikon tag
- Decode a couple of new FujiFilm tags
- Improved round-off errors when writing QuickTime:MatrixStructure via the Composite:Rotation tag
- Increased Verbose level of "nothing changed" message added in 12.45
- Removed "Z" (Zulu) designation from some of the MS-DOC date/time tags because they most certainly are in local time as written by Word 2011 for Mac (while some other MS-DOC and FlashPix date/time tags extracted without a "Z" are actually in Zulu time -- a bit of a mess really)
- Prevent dynamically-generated Unknown tags from being extracted when the -validate option is used without -u
- Patched to better handle irregular timestamps in streaming GPS of NextBase dashcam videos
- Fixed incompatibility with Sigma Photo Pro which could result in Sigma Photo Pro corrupting an ExifTool-edited X3F image (the section length in the footer needed to include the padding to a 4-byte boundary)
- Fixed problem which could prevent ExifTool from reading all GPS points from some INNOV M2TS videos
