I must be overlooking something. I have several thousand photographs on an external hard drive. I can view them, and do limited editing with the built in viewer app. It will do if I must live with it.
Yes I killed spotlight so it does not spend 30 min indexing the drive (good advice that I learned on here).
I discovered that iPhoto is stunbborn. It requires that I import the photographs before I can touch them.
I was looking forward to the new photo app (included with IOS-X 10.10.3) that installed this morning. Sadly, it has the same problem.
I want to edit photos from any abitrary source at any time.
Is there a simple fix, or must I purchase a third party app like Adobe to have something that works more like GIMP or Microsoft Photo Editor?
Thanx
