    One potential "Gotcha" for working directly with photos in Finder on a Mac - the tags, dates, and comments you enter in the "Get Info" screen are *NOT* the standard EXIF metadata! The comments here are particularly annoying here - I had to write a custom shell script to migrate all the information I'd typed into Finder Comments into the actual EXIF image description (that can be read by other programs). I'm a software engineer by trade, so this was a solvable problem for me, but could be an insurmountable problem for others. Happy to elaborate if it's helpful!

      Hi TheaterGirl62! Thanks so much for watching! It's rare that I meet someone who has added used Finder the way you did. I just can't believe how unfunctional Finder is overall! I'm amazed you could write a script to migrate the information over. What made you do this work in Finder versus the Apple Photos app? As a software engineer, I wonder what prompted you to watch this video? I'd love to chat if you would like! Your solution is very advanced and I don't even know if I'd want to replicate! ; ) My calendar link is: www.calendly.com/mollieb/pixplan

      Hi there… thank you for watching! Mylio is a powerful photo manager program… you can sync many devices as well as computers… I usually don’t recommend this as it can become complicated. Have you checked them out yet? I love the program and they have much new…
      Let me know… Cheers!

    Good morning... I have a problem. My cloud drive has deteriorated, and the information, photos, videos, etc., have been retrieved randomly. Previously, the images were organized for each member of my family because we are scattered. Is there an image sorting program for each person that recognizes the image of their face or the person, for example? Please help me with that

      Hi there! I like using MYLIO for I depth facial recognition or Apple Photos on a Mac. Here’s a video about Mylio…ua-cam.com/video/LO_S1gD2ywY/v-deo.html

    Hi, thanks for your videos, they are very helpful
    Hope you can help me. I have been looking for a long time for photo archiving software that would meet my company's needs without a success, do you know a software that allows you to share photos with clients and has a search option? We are a company that organizes conferences and I need the client to have the option of filtering by topics, I tried Lightroom but it does not meet our needs. I would appreciate it if you could recommend me such software

    • @Pixologie
      @Pixologie  8 місяців тому

      Dropbox does allow searching. . . have you tried that? I know there are other enterprise solutions for digital asset management out there . . . ua-cam.com/video/JVZ00qcNX4Q/v-deo.html. I'm sorry I am not as much help on the professional side.

    Amazon Photos - if I want to share, should I use folders or Albums?

    • @Pixologie
      @Pixologie  18 днів тому

      Hi Sheri - I think you'd share with Albums. I tried sharing by folders and didn't see an easy way to do that.

    I don't understand why you recommend mylio, its awful and has bugs. I downloaded a trial version, then cant delet the folder its created, when I decided not to use it. First requirement of any program is to have the ability to cleanly remove it from your computer.
    Love some of your other tips

    • @Pixologie
      @Pixologie  3 місяці тому

      Hi Wolfgang - I am so sorry you haven't been able to delete the folder. . . I have uninstalled Mylio several times. . . over the years. I would hate to have a folder still on my computer if I uninstalled the program.
      Has this worked? I copied it from the mylio website: manual.mylio.com/24.2/en/topic/uninstall-mylio-photos
      The Mylio System Folder contains all Thumbnails within the Generated Images Folder. The Generated Images Bundle may also contain some or all Optimized Images. Your Mylio System Folder may also include your Mylio Library Folder and Original Images, depending on your configuration. By default, the Mylio System Folder is stored in your user directory at Users/~username/Mylio.
      Locate the Mylio System Folder. This will be in your User folder at Users/~username/Mylio by default.
      Open File Explorer, select the user, and locate the Mylio folder.
      Right-click on the Mylio folder, choose Show More Options, then select Delete.
      Right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
      Deleting Mylio Photos Application Data
      The Mylio Photos Application Data folder contains information about where your photos are stored, labels, Albums, other Mylio Photos-specific organization information, and application logs. Deleting the Application Data folder will not delete images or videos. This folder will be in one of two locations, depending on when you installed Mylio Photos on your Windows computer.
      Option 1
      Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run window.
      Type %localappdata% in the Open field, then press Enter on the keyboard.
      Locate the Mylio folder.
      Right-click on the Mylio folder, choose Show More Options, then select Delete.
      Right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
      Option 2
      Open File Explorer, select the user, and locate the .Mylio_Catalog folder.
      By default, this folder is hidden. To show hidden items, open the View menu > Show > Hidden items.
      Right-click on the .Mylio_Catalog folder, choose Show More Options, then select Delete.
      Right-click on the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
      Let me know if this works for you.
      Thank you so much for watching and sharing this!
      Cheers,
      Mollie

      Hi again - Many other storage options out there - and those all of monthly fees and have no ability to pass memories on to future generations. I hope you find something that works for your situation!
