Hello Ronni
I've been following with interest the suggestions from various folk
about changing info on digital photos. Your reply to Peta was, I
think, spot on for what I needed to know. As always I have learned a
lot but would like to ask another related question.
I've not yet tried the batch change but when I add new photos I
delete the automatically allocated number and add whatever title I
want, plus a description. That all works except when I email a photo,
the auto allocated number appears along with the title and
description. Can I get rid of the number?
Thanks and best wishes.

Hi Ronda
Thank you so much - absolutely what I wanted. The step I was missing
was in Description, I had not noticed the options there - so of
course I chose Title and now all is just as I wanted. Also I can
add a further relevant key word - i.e. - name of person or place
individually to any photo to help find a particular photo quickly.
Excellent.
Have a good day.

Hello Peta,
You first have to select all the photos you want to change ... Edit
> Select All (or select photos individually) - Then 'Photos' >
'Batch Change'.
If you want multiple photos to have the same title, date, or
comment information, you can edit them all at once.
Choose Photos > Batch Change, choose Title from the Set pop-up
menu, and then choose an option from the “to” pop-up menu.
When you’re done, click OK.
If it is specifically for the date and time, you can also use
“Adjust Date and Time…”.
Cheers,
Ronni

Hullo Stephen
Okay, I was really happy to read that we can change/rename
multiple photos at the same time (as I can and do successfully
carry out on my HP PC).
So today I transferred from our cameras the photos from a recent
holiday. I successfully put these firstly into date order, and
then tried to do as suggested by you and (I think Adrian Skehan -
i.e. Photo/Batch Change.) This gave me a description to type in
with the comment "append to existing ...".
I have done this 4 times and my Apple says "updating photos" -
however there is no change in my iphoto file, and they are still
named only by the numbers allocated from the camera. Where have
these one, what has actually happened?
What I thought I could do, (as with my HP), is to rename them
something like "2009 Bali Holiday" and the Apple would number each
of those as "2009 Bali Holiday (1); (2); (3);"etc. Then, what I
have been doing on the HP is manually further adding where
relevant, e.g. pool, my name, husband's name, friend's name and so
on after the (1) number, to assist in any future searches.
Is this possible? If so, how do I make the Apple work with me on
this?
Thank you anyone for the answer!

Greetings All,
Would any of you know if there is a program that can rename and
renumber
multiple digital photos at one time?
Thank you
