I'm trying to get Categories associated with my images. I would be fine if these were the same categories associated with its parent post. But, right now, the image.php file has this code:
This entry was posted on <?php the_time('l, F jS, Y') ?> at <?php the_time() ?> and is filed under <?php the_category(', ') ?>
But on my image pages, that always results in the category being "Uncategorized," even when the parent post has a category. Any way to fix this? Thanks!

That's because attachments aren't filed within categories themselves - only their parent posts are. So you'd need to use something like:
<?php
foreach((get_the_category( $post->post_parent )) as $category) {
echo $category->cat_name . ' ';
}
?>instead of <?php the_category;?>
