Marche pas

• ★☆☆☆☆   Tazertypf 11 years ago ( v 2.0.1 )

Tout est dans le titre. Je mets un dossier en entrée, un autre dossier en sortie. La copie et le renommage semblent seffectuer, mais à la fin, toujours le même message : "Terminé, Les échecs sest arrêté". De plus, le nombre de fichiers trouvés grandi constamment (supérieur à 2000), alors que le répertoire source ne contient parfois que 10 fichiers. Je suis sous Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Merci aux développeurs de remédier au problème.

Does the job … but there is one missing crucial feature ...

• ★★★☆☆   MarcoAFierro 11 years ago ( v 2.0.1 )

I am not the kind of person that think that nothing is good enough, but in my opinion, this software lacks one crucial feature: compare files not only on file names. It should check the file contents. Let me explain: if, for some reason, you changed the name of some pictures. The way Silent Sifter works, it will never get the duplicate. Maybe, if it finds identical file signatures, it could check the file contents, byte level. Why 3 stars? I like the software, but for the price, the lacking feature took 2 stars from it.

Problem with new photos app

• ★☆☆☆☆   Igor.br 9 years ago ( v 3.2.1 )

This software is very good and already saved me a lot of time, but apple udgraded iphoto to Photos app and this one is not working. Please solve it !!!

Noch nicht 100% für Yosemite

• ★★★☆☆   robiDege 9 years ago ( v 3.2 )

Idee genial, manche Dinge funktionieren. In meiner Version kann man die Sprache nicht auf Deutsch stellen bzw. das Menu ist gemischt Deutsch / Englisch und sogar MenuNamen in Code-Sprache „SetPreferenceButton“ …. Funktion für normale Ordner scheinen zu funktionieren, Iphoto funktioniert leider nicht.

Benutzerhandbuch in deutscher Sprache fehlt mir sehr!

Benutzerhandbuch in deutscher Sprache fehlt mir sehr!

can not customize directory structure

• ★★☆☆☆   vertexmonkey 12 years ago ( v 1.2 )

Because you can not customize the directory structure, this app is useless for professionals who already have a system set up

Fantastic

• ★★★★★   Tim L. Walker 11 years ago ( v 2.0.1 )

Exactly what I was looking for to upload and organize photos from the 2 iPhones and iPad in the house - works like a charm. Even better with the latest update. If you haven multiple devices from which you take photographs, this is the best way to keep them organized on your Mac.
