I've "titled" many, many photos in iPhoto by changing the filename (e.g. "DSC_2254" --> "On vacation in Hawaii"), but there appears to be no option in Photos to show the filename. So none of my "titles" appear. Am I missing something?

If you open your Photos Library in Power Photos as a second browser, you can seethe metadata as column in a nice list view, or you can show the filenames as a subtitle below the thumbnails.
Even the free trial version can do this.
As an added bonus, the grid view can show the thumbnails on a dark background:
For a very large library PowerPhotos needs a long time to launch, so I simply keep it open at all the time.
Hello. I'm beginning a large project and thought I would try your script for Changing Title to Filename...
Unfortunately Mac OS Sierra does not allow it to open because "it is from an unrecognized developer."
Thought you'd want to know.
Sincerely,
That is exactly what I did but Mac OX won't allow it to unzip. The zip file does the animation of a file opening or unzipping, but nothing results.
I searched the filename with Spotlight and it shows the file as being in my applications folder, however when I go to applications it is not visible. I have checked my utilities folder just in case.
Thanks
Use keywords, the keyword manager, info and intelligent albums to solve your problems !!!
I have more than a thousand key words and I can find everything very easily. You can even filter photos intelligently with a little practise and good thinking, so that you can have the albums completely presented under "all photos" ! Good luck ! (Any photo can have a multitude of keywords.)
Time Machine is not a clone. Time machine is a limited archive. It will archive as much information as it can based on capacity.
This is an important distinction from a clone, because Macs without internet restore capability turned on may not be able to recover from a Time Machine backup without their original installer discs. There is a special firmware for the internet restore on Macs that predate Lion's release.

And another test with a Canon .CR2 file, migrated from Aperture: The version name also shows:
where is the Info panel?
It's a small floating pane that you bring up with the Command + i key combination.
You can also launch the Info panel from the Window menu in Photos:
Window > Info ⌘I
Exactly, it should, but it doesn't:
Not yet. The next version of Photos will have more sorting options. See the preview of of El Capitan: Apple — OS X El Capitan

Which script are you running? My V1.3 script from here Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Where are photo file names? works for me.

As more folks are using their I phones - even pros- for images that need a file name for exporting, so you do not duplicate when moving to Mac book pro for example, it is really bad design on Apple's part NOT to have a file name under an image! I am using High Sierra, and I photo is a thing of the past. Get with the program apple.. This is absurd !
In my case it seems that JPEG files have been imported from Aperture with the "title" set to the filename, but RAW images have a blank title.

Where are photo file names?
