No this did not help - I am trying to change to a capital letter and it will not do it.

You're welcome. Then you're not doing it right. Double click on the name until it's selected - the background will turn dark grey. Then you can edit it.

This did not work until I opened just the one photo and then changed the name at the top of the file. Thanks for your help.
