I think the answer to your question lies in exactly where you store your photographs, and how you access them with Twitter or whatever else you are using.
One day Mac users will have no idea how or where their files are stored, and they won't care. Crazy to think that file management should be relegated to an app, but that's essentially what the Mac's Finder is anyway, or at least that's what Apple thinks about it.Īs part of the original Macintosh operating system it's amazing the Finder has survived as long as it has, essentially unchanged. That is the way it has always been with iOS, and it was much after iOS's inception that Apple (seemingly reluctantly) implemented the Files app in it. One aspect regarding user interaction that Apple appears to be moving toward is having apps maintain their own files. That doesn't stop people from trying though.
Photos maintains its own database in at ~/Pictures/Photos Library, and it's best not to poke around in it. "You can create folders in your home folder" but "There are certain locations where you may not be able to create additional folders."Īs a professional photographer, I'd imagine you don't use the Photos app that comes with your Mac. Unless there is something already misconfigured about your Mac (it's possible) using Terminal is not going to lead to a solution.įolders that come with your Mac describes its overall structure, and you can do whatever you want within Home: In other words don't look for a way to solve the problem with Terminal. It is not possible to circumvent that using Terminal or anything else, but the fact it's rootless cannot possibly be the reason for an inability for Safari or anything else to access your pictures.
(Folders are what macOS calls directories.) There should be no reason to believe it's a matter of where the photos are stored though, provided they are within your Home folder or any of its subfolders. I have no idea what Twitter does or how it does it, so you might be better off asking in a Twitter app user support site. That's the reason I asked you to describe what you are doing with Safari, in simple steps others can follow. Your original question concerned Chrome, Twitter and Safari which was conflating several different apps.
