Greetings fellow MacRumors members . I come to you with a problem in hopes that you will provide me with a solution. I have pondered for months trying to come up with a solution but have given up and need to utilize some other peoples knowledge.
I have thousands of photos that I would like to sort into folders. I need them organised by categories. There will probably be about 100 categories. I would drag them into these categories by hand but the problem gets a little more complicated than that...
Each photo could be in multiple categories and I would like it to be in each categories folder. There will be duplicate photos all over the place, but this is how I need to organize them right now. My ideal solution was to somehow go through each photo, type in tags for categories in the metadata, and have a program move each photo into folders named with the category I tagged them with.
I realize this is probably not possible, but I would like a solution that is easier than going through each photo and dragging it into applicable folders. I would be willing to buy a professional program if it allowed me to sort these photos more reasonably than by hand.
Thanks for your brainpower!
