is there a way to make it image recognize to make it do events?

[@MrWaynoo8]

Hi, I used automator to convert various images, it displays the "change permanently to Jpeg" then " conversion complete" . The photos were in .TIFF format with names, but I can't find where the photos went to.. when I go to "recents" it only shows me unrelated applications I have used and a few old photos..Thanks 9/25/22

Hi Hansma, for any further troubleshooting I would recommend reaching out to Apple directly. Linking an article that may be of some use: support.apple.com/guide/automator/welcome/mac
