iPhoto "loses" the imported files.
Since Photos does not have the same functionality as iPhoto (batch changes for naming, viewing of file names under the photo) I've stuck with the iPhoto application. (After "migrating" my iPhoto library to Photos.)
My editing is done in Lightroom, and then exported to the desktop. Now, however, when I import anything to my iPhoto library from the desktop, I need to leave the folder on the desktop, otherwise, when I go to the album/event and select a photo, I get a message saying "ALERT The file xyz.jpg” could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found."
This has only happened since Photos has been added.
As I don't want to have to leave all of these files on the desktop, is there something that I can do to prevent iPhoto from losing the import?
