Do you have the 'Apply' checkbox next to the date control set?  If it is set then the date will be modified.  Do you have the IPTC Stationery Pad set to always use today as the date (you can check this in the IPTC/XMP tab of the Photo Mechanic Preferences dialog)?

No, the apply checkboc is not checked and the preference dialog IPTC/XMP is set right.....
It's an a Mac and JPEG-files (earlier RAW-files) Files made Canon camera (RAW) older than two years.....

Can you post a screenshot of the IPTC Info dialog on a file before and after (two screenshots) of what happens?

What version of PM are you running?
