I'm exporting from iPhoto into a folder, and I want the photos to stay in the same order that I manually arranged them (without changing titles). How?

1 Answer

Answer :

I assume you mean that you need them to show up in the same order when you’re browsing through them in the finder? I can’t really think of a good way of doing this without changing the filenames. If you tell me a little more about what you’re doing with the images that you need these two requirements, maybe I can think of a workaround.
