My archive of photos has always been files in directories. Nothing "mysterious" can go wrong with those... Copy as many times as you like to whatever medium you like, and not dependent on any particular software.
- xpda 13y agoMine too. I'm still unclear on how OP lost the photos in the first place.
- prawn 13y agoiPhoto has some sort of archive/database file that can get corrupted, I think.
- RexRollman 13y agoAgreed. I keep all of photos in a directory and I use a program called Jhead to rename the files based on jpeg metadata. Example: 20130101_12-13-34.jpg (YearMonthDay_Hours-Minutes-Seconds) I chose this scheme because it works on all the OSes I use and, having no spaces, tab-completes nice with Bash.
