Looks good right? Nope - when I move them to a folder on the desktop, to an email or to my digital frame, it renames them image001, etc,
That's because the Finder works with the filename itself. There are utilities (including built-in AppleScript or Automator-based ones) to change that but they will work at the Finder level. In other words, you'll have to make the name change after copying them to a folder, etc. Which will do me no good at all because when I attempt to move the same-named photos to a folder, iphoto will let me stop the move of the second image001, or go and replace the original image001 - so I've been putting a .1, .2 etc after the name, but frankly, it's a pita. I was hoping there was a better solution. Brand loyalty only goes so far. .
Thanks for your help.
