batch title change in photo version 1

Just ran a test and the following scripts to batch change the title successfully ran in an album:

Photos for Mac - Batch Change Title to Text w/Padded Sequential No

Batch Change Title to Capture Date-Description-Padded Sequential Number

Script: Batch Changing the Titles to the Filename w/Extension

The following script would not run in an album:

Script: Changing the Title to the Filename without Extension

Thanks for the quick response. I just ran the top code (Batch Change Title to Text w/Padded Sequential No) and it will not complete for me. I get the following error in Automator:

The action "Run AppleScript" encountered an error. Check the action's properties and try running the workflow again. (listed in log as AppleEvent handler failed)

The test album I created to run the code was not in a folder. Also in an attempt to trouble shoot I used the exact code but selected pictures in Albums > All Photos and it ran fine.

What am I doing wrong? Perhaps some sort of setting?

Did you save that script as a Service or as an application. I saved all of mine as applications so I can access them thru the Scripts menu

which is activated in the Applescript Editor preferences:

I don't know if that makes any difference in their working in Photos or not but might be worth a try.

I've noticed that with 10.10.5 the Applescript app can't open my current app nor create one from the code in the user tip. I have an older Script.app which can open the already compiled app or save the script form the user tip to an app. But it won't run as it give an input error.

Evidently there's some incompatibilities between the Applescript used to create my apps and the current Applescript directories.

If you are interested I can provide a link to download a copy of my working version of the app so you can give it a try.

I converted the script to an application and ran the script but still get the same error when I try to run within an album. It will work normally within Album > All Photos but that's it.

Unless there are some other recommendations I'm going to chalk this up as an epic fail on Apple's part. Why you would ever remove a functionality that helps create organization is beyond me. I get it if you they don't care about Titles but there are obviously large masses of users that do. It's a shame.

And yes, I have submitted Feedback several times. I encourage all others do the same.

Thanks for your help Old Toad.
