Wow, that's a lot of work. Why didn't you just batch rename the
photos in iPhoto with the selection to append a number to each, then
export using title as filename? Just two steps and you're done!

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I'm wondering if you are new to the
list. We had some discussion on this last week and week before.
If someone would have suggested it, I probably would have. I did
mention my problem with duplicate numbers on many of the photos. I
did mention that I needed to rename photos and someone mentioned
that it could be done with another application that I don't have,
but not with iPhoto.

Is pha referring to a 3rd party plug-in or script?
Looking in help for "rename", nothing useful shows up; the only
mention of "batch" in the iPhoto help, says:
-----------
If you want multiple photos to have the same title, date, or
comments, you can edit them all at once.
WARNING: Setting a photo's title, date, or comments changes it in the
photo library and in all albums and books where it appear
-----------
that would be counterproductive here.
I looked a bit for a applescript to do unique numbering within
iPhoto, but failed to find one, so that's why I suggested a method
outside of iPhoto.
If something exists, that would certainly be a useful tool! Can you
give a URL? that would be a great addition to the post....
