Frequently Asked Questions

To register your license:
  1. Launch Renamer 7
  2. Click Register
  3. Enter your license key and click Save
Why should I upgrade to Renamer 7?
  • Rewritten from the ground up, Renamer is ready for the future
  • New modern interface that fits the native macOS aesthetics
  • Renamer goes faster thanks to speed improvements to the rename engine
All these improvements make the a bargain!

Note: upgrading requires a valid Renamer 4 license.
Does Renamer 6 work on macOS Tahoe?
Unfortunately, Renamer v6 is not compatible with the latest macOS version, Tahoe. We released Renamer v7 several years ago, which includes important updates and improvements to ensure compatibility with newer macOS versions. We recommend upgrading to Renamer v7 to enjoy the latest features and ensure smooth functionality on macOS Tahoe.
Is there an upgrade discount?
Yes! You can for a discount if you own a license for Renamer 6.
Is there a difference between the Mac App Store and direct download versions?
The two versions offer the same features. The only difference is that the Mac App Store version will ask for permission to rename files due to macOS security requirements.
What ID3 audio file tags does Renamer support?
Renamer can insert the following ID3 tags into filenames: artist, album name, track title, album year, track number and track count (that is, the number of tracks).
Does Renamer support Apple Lossless (.m4a files) audio tags?
Yes. Renamer can insert these Apple Lossless (m4a) audio tags into filenames: artist, album name, track title, album year, track number and track count (that is, the number of tracks).
Why are my iTunes music tags not seen by Renamer?
If you change a song's attribute in iTunes, the values may have been stored in iTunes' database but not the file itself. You can fix this by Ctrl-clicking on the song in iTunes and choosing Convert ID3 Tags....
What EXIF image/photo tags does Renamer support?
Renamer can insert the following EXIF tags into filenames: dimensions (width and height), date/time original, date/time digitized, GPS coordinates (longitude and latitude), altitude, camera make and camera model.
What is difference between the EXIF original and digitized date/time stamps?
The EXIF Digitized date records when the photo was digitized. For digital cameras this will always be the same as the Original date because the camera immediately saves (digitizes) the photo. For photos that were taken with analog cameras and later scanned, the Digitized date will record the date when the photo was scanned.
What image metadata does Renamer support?
Renamer can insert the image dimensions (width and height) and DPI resolution. For photos Renamer can also insert EXIF tags including the date and time, GPS coordinates and camera information.
Can Renamer match and replace text with wildcards?
Yes, Renamer can match text with regular expressions.
Do I need to use AI Assist to use Renamer?
Not at all. AI Assist is an optional feature. Renamer's full renaming engine (rules, wildcards, EXIF tags, ID3 tags, presets) works exactly as it always has without AI Assist. The model is only downloaded if you choose to opt in.
Does AI Assist send my filenames or prompts to the cloud?
No. Your filenames, your prompts, and the suggestions all stay on your computer. There are no API calls to external services and no data is stored on any server.
Do I need an internet connection to use AI Assist?
Only for the initial model download. Once the model is on your machine, AI Assist works fully offline, on a plane, on a train, or on any disconnected machine.
Does AI Assist require an account or subscription?
No. AI Assist is included with your Renamer license. There is no account to create, no API key to manage, and no per-use cost or rate limit.
Will AI Assist rename my files without asking me?
No. AI Assist only generates suggestions. You review what it proposes before anything happens, and Renamer's preview shows exactly what each file will be called. Nothing is renamed until you confirm.
What AI model does AI Assist use?
AI Assist uses Ministral 3B, a compact local language model from Mistral AI, running on an embedded llama.cpp inference engine. This is the same approach used by tools like Ollama and LM Studio. It runs entirely on your Mac or Windows machine. Renamer has no connection to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any other cloud AI provider.
How large is the AI Assist model download?
About 1.8 GB, downloaded once the first time you enable AI Assist. After that it runs offline with no further downloads required.
Where is the AI model stored, and can I delete it?
The model is stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Renamer on Mac, and %APPDATA%\Renamer on Windows. You can delete it at any time from Renamer's preferences to disable AI Assist and reclaim the disk space.
Can I disable AI Assist after enabling it?
Yes. You can turn off AI Assist and delete the model from Renamer's preferences. The model is not downloaded in the first place unless you opt in.
Does AI Assist learn from my files or my usage?
No. The model is static. It does not learn from your files, your prompts, or your usage. Nothing you do in Renamer influences the model.
Is AI Assist available on both Mac and Windows?
Yes. AI Assist works the same on macOS and Windows. The same local model runs on both platforms with no platform-dependent cloud quirks.
How reliable are the AI suggestions?
AI Assist is good at turning plain-language descriptions into structured renaming actions: things like "convert to lowercase", "remove spaces", or "add a date prefix". It is not infallible. The suggestions are a starting point. Always review the preview before applying.
