My migration from iPhoto to Photos continues, and today’s snafu was my discovery that I couldn’t rename files in Photos. This is something I’ve long done in iPhoto—not for every file, but for ones I’d like to group together using something other than Keywords. For example, I have a collection of iOS wallpapers, for both the home and lock screens. I name each with either “H_” or “L_” as the start of the filename, which let me create this Smart Album to see them all together: The inability to rename files isn’t critical, in particular because the Title field can be used for the same functionality.

But I had a problem: When I migrated, Photos created Titles for some, but not all, of my custom-named images. In particular, it missed all of the iOS wallpapers. I’m not sure if this is because these aren’t photos in the traditional sense—they’re edited photos I export as PNGs. But whatever the reason, I had hundreds of images that needed a Title that was equal to their Filename. Photoshop resize image mac. AppleScript to the rescuethis simple bit of code acts on the selection in Photos, and sets the Title equal to each image’s filename. End tell To use this bit of code, just select the photos you’d like to modify in Photos, then run the script.

Opening Pictures with an Image Viewer. You may also choose to associate your image files with an image editor. An image viewer is usually faster when you just want to look at a picture, but if you plan to do any modification of the images, you'll need an image editor. With the release of iPhoto '08, Apple changed the way it stores image files on your Mac's hard drive. Instead of organizing your pictures into separate visible folders, iPhoto hides your picture files by default and stores them in a single unit.

You can make it a bit easier by saving the script into your user’s Library > Scripts > Applications > Photos folder (create as many of those as don’t exist). It will then be available in the AppleScript menu in the menu bar, assuming you’ve enabled that in the AppleScript Editor’s preferences. This saved me literally hours of work, copying and pasting filenames to the Title field. (I was surprised this worked, but it did—you can’t change the filename, but you can select and copy it.). • It still feels like some sort of weird black magic when I enter a redeem code on Movies Anywhere, and then watch as • 'is an innovative VDR, designed for today's M&A.'
