MAC COMPUTER EXTENSIONS FOR PHOTO BOOKS INSTALL
Photos only advertises this option when you edit a picture, but clicking the Extensions button there doesn’t reveal any way to install them.
MAC COMPUTER EXTENSIONS FOR PHOTO BOOKS SOFTWARE
Jeff Carlson, a photographer and author of dozens of books about Mac hardware and software and other computing topics, explained why that can beat using a separate image-editing app: “You can still have a central repository for images (and for using iCloud Photo Library to have all the images on all your devices) without having to first export from Photos, edit in a third-party app, then re-import an edited version into Photos.”įinding these extensions, however, is a little tricky. Unfortunately, Photos’ choices for organizing pictures still don’t match iPhoto’s: You can’t rate pictures with one to five stars or flag them for your attention.īut one other new Photos feature offers the potential to make this a more useful, flexible program: Extensions that plug in additional editing tools. (Tip: For quicker access to any of your folders, press the Command, Option and S keys to show the left-hand sidebar listing all of them.) The app now offers a fussy geotagging feature in which you can’t add a location to a photo by clicking on a map you have to type the name of a place and hope Photos recognizes it, after which you get a map featuring a pushpin icon you can move around.Īnd Photos added a Selfies folder that automatically collects pictures taken with the front camera on an iOS device.
The tools in Photos to crop, adjust, retouch and dress up your pictures seem almost identical, aside from the new ability to rotate and flip multiple photos at once. The photo organizer and editor that’s supposed to replace Apple’s long-neglected, now-abandoned iPhoto received surprisingly few improvements in the OS X release that shipped this week-even considering the modest scope of Apple’s operating-system update. The updated Photos app in OS X El Capitan still falls short of iPhoto in a few ways.
