Where are photo file names?

I agree, this really stinks. I have about 3000 photos & don't really use Photos. I just keep my images in a file on my desktop & use Preview to view them. Importing & retitling all my photos is too much work therefore the program is useless to me.

Why should we need to file a bug report? Surely Apple is aware of this issue, they designed the program.

If you don't use the application at all then why worry about its features? For those that want to use the application feedback and bug reporting are the ways to get in touch with the developers to request changes, enhancements, or report behaviour that seems anomalous. Apple may have designed the program, but they cannot know how every user will try to work with it.

Why should we need to file a bug report?

Because if you use Photos then you would want Apple to fix it ASAP. Remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

But since you don't use Photos why are you here complaining? It doesn't involve you.

Yes I can imagine.

Thank you for understanding Leonie.

I DID just go to Apple/feedback as you suggested & offered my opinion/complaint & reasons why I feel the way I do.

The error message:

Can’t make reverse of every character of «class filn» of item 1 of {«class IPmi» id "TR4GuRuYSGedlDyHx2UNoA" of application "Photos"} into type string.

I've been trying to run it as a Service within Photos, and it fails in that context.

You're welcome. 🙂

Control (right) - click on the app and select Open from the Contextual menu. In the next window select Open and from then on it will open without issue

Sorry - didn't read the thread all the way to the bottom. Thanks OLD Toad for the script - I will give it a go.
