Entity Emile Schwarz spoke thus:
You can't change Creation Date with Applescript or any included shell tool
unless Xcode is installed:
do shell script "ls Developer/Tools/SetFile"
But you can download it here standalone:
http://corz.org/osx/soft/stuff/setfile.gz
Install the script:
do shell script "sudo gzip -d < $HOME/Desktop/SetFile.gz >>
$HOME/Desktop/SetFile"
do shell script "sudo mv $HOME/Desktop/SetFile
/usr/local/bin;sudo chown root:admin /usr/local/bin/SetFile;sudo chmod 775
/usr/local/bin/SetFile" with administrator privileges
Call the script with the -d option. The format of the date string is a
little tricky, but this should get you going.
