What is this message trying to tell me? I have a group of photos, and I'm changing a sequence number (shifting the sequence to shuffle in some overlooked photos). It's not that a pre existing file name is being duplicated because there are other duplicate names that aren't being tagged with that error...

It means that an existing file already have the name you are trying to assign to that particular file. It might not be a problem at the time of the rename because that file might be included in the batch and will get a new name before the file that yields the error gets renamed. You might need to assign a temporary name to the files first. Eg. you can add a _ to the end of all files in one batch and then do the sequence number shifting and removing of the _ in another batch. I hope this helps you. |
