Lovely #NeoFinder for #macOS praise from Texas:
"Just a note to thank you for all of the years of the pleasure of using Neofinder.
Makes file management, especially the several million images of a 50 plus year career in photography, so rewarding." Thom J.

I love those questions for my #NeoFinder software! ☺️
Q: I’m wondering how NeoFinder saves metadata to JPEGs. The reason for asking is that JPEGs are lossy so continually re-saving the JPEG would recompress the files and lose detail (which I don’t want to do).
A: No worries, NeoFinder will not touch the actual pixels of JPG files, the metadata is stored in the separate EXIF, IPTC, and XMP metadata section of the files, no pixels harmed. :-)
Another step for a faster workflow is the new ability in my #NeoFinder 9.1 for #macOS to add a unique Image ID automatically to all #photos ingested from a photo camera in the NeoFinder Image Capture tool.
Along with adding annotations, like your copyright information, but you knew that already, right? ;-)

What a gruesome UI garbage. Really.
A disgusting mess.
I pledge there will be no menu icons in the new #NeoFinder version!
I have already added code to remove that ugly crap in macOS 26.
My #NeoFinder 9.1 for #macOS is now able to catalog the text content of entire PDF documents, and not just the first page!
As that is much slower and creates possibly very large catalogs, you need to manually turn that option on.

As I distribute my #NeoFinder outside the horrible Apple App Store, I don't really care, and stick with Xcode 16.4, which is running so far, with the known crashes and bugs...
#resist !
My #NeoFinder application will never have such an ugly and boring squircle blob as the icon, on the contrary. Promise!
And it will keep its nice launch animation in the dock as well.
I have added another AppleScript Power Example to the NeoFinder Users Guide!
This time, you can copy metadata from the selected files into the clipboard in a text-with-tab format. This works on #NeoFinder for #macOS.
You can use that to paste the data into a spreadsheet or a database.
Yes, AppleScript is crazy powerful, and I very much love it!

I have just uploaded a new powerful #AppleScript to the #NeoFinder for #macOS Users Guide.
It uses the XMP Location field, the XMP Location, and the EXIF Capture Date to generate a nice new Caption with that information, in a nicely formatted way.
This is based on a script I wrote for a client that was used in preparation of a photographic exhibition.
AppleScript really is crazy powerful!

Signing off for the holidays!
Wishing you all a peaceful and friendly holiday season, and a Happy New Year 2026!
The #NeoFinder team will be back for you on January 5, 2026. Until then, only limited services will be available.
For macOS 26, definitely this one:

As a music player app, I use Swinsian, as it actually looks so much better than "Apple Music.app" and actually, gasp, works!
And to earch SMB servers, replace Spotlight with my #NeoFinder 😎
The small things can make such a difference.
Like this new feature for the QuickTags and QuickPersons tool.
Asked for by a client who uses NeoFinder a lot.
My #NeoFinder 9.1 for #macOS now gives you the option to Duplicate the current Group:
