Generated by () Make new folder with properties ĪppleScript can be complicated if you’re starting from a blank page, but when you have existing scripts like these at your disposal, it can be quite easy to modify them as needed. You can also change the name of the target folder, by modifying this line: Set isoImageDate to projectYear & delimiter & projectMonth & delimiter & projectDay & " | " as string Set isoImageDate to projectYear & delimiter & projectMonth & delimiter & projectDay as string If you want the name to include the space-bar-space ( ” | “) that the other script does, then make this change to the script (just open it in AppleScript Editor): ![]() It will create those Projects in a folder titled “Imported by Date”, and the script will create that folder for you if it doesn’t already exist. When you run it, the script will break the Project into one Project per day of photos, and name the Project “yyyy-mm-dd”. To run this script, you select a single Project - it doesn’t matter where it is - and select the script from the AppleScript menu. It turns out his is quite different from Tim’s, so you’ll want both! It also replaces and builds on a feature that’s missing from Aperture, but exists in iPhoto - Autosplit Events. Update on Ap5:43pm by Joseph Day has provided more info on what his script does, and also provided it for download. (If you want, you can modify the script to change the name of the target folder or how it renames the projects as well). Create a folder called “Events” and place projects to rename in there - when you run the script, just sit back and watch the projects get renamed! It takes several seconds per project, and the more photos in it the longer it takes, so just have a little patience and watch it work. Place the downloaded script in the folder ~/Library/Scripts/Aperture and ensure that Show Script menu in menu bar is enabled in the AppleScript Editor.app preferences. To make life really easy though, Tim is letting me include the script for free right here. You can read about Tim’s script here, and also about John’s script here (both have slightly different approaches). I used Tim’s script to help a client sort out literally thousands of projects with erroneous names - by simply putting a date in front of each project, it made the process of adding a proper name that much easier. So all you have to do is put those unnamed projects into a specific folder, then activate the script. Two different readers on this site, Tim Doyle and John Day, both wrote AppleScripts that look inside each project in a defined folder, finds the oldest photo in the project, and prepends that date to whatever the project is currently called. This works out very well and keeps things consistent.īut what if you’ve already got a ton of “Untitled” projects staring you in the face? I add yyyy-mm-dd in front of each project nameWhen making new projects, I use TextExpander to fill that in, so all I have to type is “ymd” and that automatically expands to “ | “ (notice it even includes the space-bar-space so I’m ready to type a descriptive name). All projects in my Library have a name format of “ | project name” in them, and that makes things really clean, like this: You probably also know that I’m a huge proponent of putting the date into the name of my projects. It’s so easy to just think “I’ll name that later”, and a year later end up adding photos to project Untitled-815. Eek. If you’ve read any of my ebooks, watched any videos, or even heard me talk about Aperture on a podcast, you probably know that my number one, if-nothing-else-you-gotta-do-this Aperture organization tip is to NAME YOUR PROJECTS. (If you’re just joining us, start with Tip 1) Tip 3 - Name Your Projects ![]()
