Q: how to retrieve dscn numbers on photos in iPhoto

Because of some program update, all of my dscn numbers have disappeared from below my photos in all my photo albums.  This is a disaster for me.  How do I get them to reappear?

iMac, iOS 10

    Do you mean the file name? That doesn't show in Photos unless you open the info pane.

    If you need to see that hovering below the image, you could look online for a script that would set the Title to the file name (unless you are already using the Title field), then show the Title metadata (View menu).

    From the iPhoto View menu: Titles. That puts a picture title underneath individual images when view an album.
