      • Thread "Add Image to Photos" in Safari not working. Any thought why? OS X (10.3.3)

        "Add Image to Photos" in Safari not working. Any thought why? OS X (10.3.3)

        Hey team, when I bring up the contextual menu in Safari and select "Add Image to Photos" nothing happens. Is it supposed to behave in the same way iPhoto did? Any thoughts welcomed and encouraged, thanks!view more
