I dont know how can I see the last files create or modificate in my recent folder.

In Recents, it depends on whether the tool you use to transfer the photos sets the correct metadata.


  • In Finder, select your Home folder and type cmd-F.

    You should have two search location options, "This Mac" or your home folder. Choose whichever is appropriate. If you store photos in your Home folder (or a subfolder, use that). If they are outside of your home folder, then use "This Mac."

  • Where it says Kind is Any, set Any to Image and leave the type to All.
  • Hold down the Option key and select Date Modified in the Sort by submenu of the View menu.
  • Click the Save button in the window. Give it a name and check the box to Add to Sidebar.


To view all of your image files, just click on the Search Folder in your Sidebar and all your image files that are in you Home folder will be listed, sorted by date modified.
