You can't change history.
Really.
I've tried. Repeatedly.


At least not in PS. It may be possible to do it from with Bridge, provided the 
document is not open in PS. And it is definitely possible to with exiftool. If 
you only have to do a few every once in awhile, a bit of script in Bridge is the 
way to go. If you have hundreds or thousands of images to process, use exiftool.
