Remove Author from File Info

You can batch clear or update/change the incorrect Autor text on existing files using a metadata template where you only have the Creator applied.

Or you can use a script, changing "My Name" to whatever it needs to be within the quote marks:

#target bridge

if (BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge") {
    AUT = MenuElement.create("command", "Change Author", "at the end of Tools");
}
AUT.onSelect = function () {
    var thumbs = app.document.selections;
    if (!thumbs.length) return;
    if (ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript == undefined) ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject("lib:AdobeXMPScript");
    for (var a in thumbs) {
        var selectedFile = thumbs[a].spec;
        var theAuthor = "My Name";
        var myXmpFile = new XMPFile(selectedFile.fsName, XMPConst.UNKNOWN, XMPConst.OPEN_FOR_UPDATE);
        var myXmp = myXmpFile.getXMP();
        myXmp.deleteProperty(XMPConst.NS_PHOTOSHOP, "Author");
        myXmp.setProperty(XMPConst.NS_PHOTOSHOP, "Author", theAuthor);
        if (myXmpFile.canPutXMP(myXmp)) {
            myXmpFile.putXMP(myXmp);
            myXmpFile.closeFile(XMPConst.CLOSE_UPDATE_SAFELY);
        }
    }
};

We need to understand where this is coming from—the source; otherwise, you will constantly be removing it (though it can be automated as a last resort in Photoshop).

Is this metadata in the file before it goes to Photoshop?

Are you using metadata templates?

Is the file coming from 3rd party raw development software, Lightroom, a DAM or some other upstream content management system?

Can you show a screenshot and or provide any other helpful information for working this out?

what app?
