Ummm - what did I just ingest ?
« on: April 28, 2025, 04:39:36 PM »
Inside of PM+ is there a way to see a manifest of the images just ingested or a search that could be performed on the catalog ?

Sorry if this is obvious ...

Thx

The Ingest window retains the last settings that you used. You could open the Ingest window and review the full Primary Destination Path to see where the images would have been Ingested to?

Sorry I should have added more context ...

I have a bunch of old legacy CF cards that I want to double check are ingested to my system before I bin them.

They span various years so they end up in different folders according to my YEAR/yyyy-mm-dd/captures setting in the ingest window.

Normally I would rely on PM to remember the open contact sheets on relaunch but for some reason I was asked to re-licence (no idea why - it's not up yet), and then PM+ forgot/lost the open contact sheet tabs on relaunch.

So I'm left with a bunch of images that went somewhere but I'm not sure where.

I was hoping to be able to use PM+ to sort querying "date added" or similar but I'm not finding anything in the "Searchable fields" window that would help me so far ?

Thx

No, there is no record of when images were added to the Photo Mechanic Plus Catalog.

Maybe you could try a Smart Folder in Finder and then sort that by date added: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/create-or-change-a-smart-folder-on-mac-mchlp2804/mac
