I find automater annoying because I keep trying to rename picture files but I want to keep them sorted by date created. Automater keeps renaming them randomly. A great tip, thanks. Worked like a charm to rename older photos taken with a phone when I wanted to add new ones that had the same names.
No way to define the naming on the phone. You can click on it in Launchpad, or double click on it in the Applications folder. Drag the files you want to rename into the upper right of the Automator window It's recommended to make copies of a couple files and do a test run on these files first, in case things don't turn out how you want them to.
Decide if you want Automator to make copies of your files. If so, click "Add," or if not, click "Don't Add. Decide if you want to add or replace any text in the file names. Select "Add Text" or "Replace Text" from the drop-down menu, accordingly.
Add text, if desired. Just type it into the text box. If you are adding text, select "after name" or "before name" or "as extension". Selecting "after name" will add the text at the end of the file name and in front of the file type extension. Replace text, if desired.
Type in the text you are searching for, and then type in the text you want to replace it with. If you are replacing text, select "full name" or "basename only" or extension only". And if you want uppercase and lowercase letters to be matched uncheck "Ignore Case".
