Default reformatting dates

I'm guessing that you have text instead of numbers ni those cells. in an
adjacent column, put this formula and come back and let us know what you see.

=ISNUMBER(A1)

I have a series of dates....when I try to reformat them all to m/d/
yyyy only some of them are changing from the current expanded day
month date, year

The first one here changed but the others didn't.

Any suggestions?? I'm thinking I might have to convert them all to
something and then format to what I want.
