Repair broken bookmarks to referenced files in Apple Photos

Overview

Repair Apple Photos Bookmarks

Work in progress to repair file location bookmarks in Apple Photos.

Background

Starting in macOS 10.15/Catalina, photos imported into the Apple Photos app and not copied into the library (e.g. referenced photos) are tied to a specific volume on a specific computer. If you move the photos to a different volume or computer, even with the same name, Photos will be unable to open the original files and will produce a "Missing file" dialog. This is caused because of macOS Sandbox security features and the fact that Photos now stores locations to photos using security-scoped file system bookmarks instead by path. This script will repair your photos library by updating the bookmarks.

This is a work in progress and it's a bit of hack. It requires a few manual steps to get it working (the script will prompt you).

How to use

pip install -r requirements.txt python3 repair_photos_bookmarks.py follow the prompts
