 Hi 

 I have an org file which is full of time-stamps from last year stuff
 like <2016-11-14 Sat>. I thought I could easily modify/edit the time
 stamp but I cannot, every time I move the cursor into such a stamp, I
 cannot edit as I wish. It looks as if that entry is somehow blocked.

You mean you cannot change it at all?

 Of course I could switch the mode say to text mode and then edit the
 entry, but what could I do wit
 hin orgmode?

You should be able to change it with ordinary editing commands (it's just
text, albeit with text properties). Or you could do S-<up or S-<down> on
individual fields to change them (that runs org-timestamp-up/down which
knows e.g. to increment the year when the month is incremented from 12 to
1 and also knows to change the name of the day of the week).
