After I edit a video in Photos and click Done or press Return, my changes are not saved. It always just reverts to the original. Mac running Ventura 3.1, Photos 8.0.
MacBook Pro 13″, 13.1
Being this far behind the current 13.4.1 Ventura maybe partly the cause of this issue as previous Contributor has mentioned
There are several Big and Security Fixes since Ventura 13.1
Keep your Mac up to date - Apple Support (CA)
Apple security updates - Apple Support (CA)
Just to check - what you are saying is that the version of Photos included with Ventura 13.1 is known to be completely nonfunctional?
I have a little hesitation about upgrading to 13.4.1 after reading such things as "It’s difficult to predict how Apple’s latest firmware will impact your Mac’s performance. While some users could see improvements, others will run into frustrating bugs and performance issues." and "Mac users are complaining about a variety of issues ranging from abnormal battery drain to issues with first and third-party applications."
It would appear the user is reluctant to upgrade from an out dated version Released Dec 13, 2022 Ventura macOS 13.1 ( 22C65 )
This is based upon reproducible evidence or more so on Social Media Posting ?
Does the user have in place a functioning Rescue Plan that would involve at least 1 TM Backup if not two TM Backups each to Separate External Drives ?
Bugs do exist in early versions of Ventura though many fixes have been put in-place in newer versions
Thank you very much. What is the earliest version of Ventura that has a working edit function in Photos? Maybe I could upgrade to that one rather than to 13.4.1. I have to say I'm surprised that nobody else seems to have noticed this rather substantial issue.
Among my sources is https://www.gottabemobile.com/macos-ventura-problems-5-things-you-need-to-know/
where they say, "Apple’s macOS Ventura 13.4.1 update is plagued by bugs, glitches, and performance issues.
macOS Ventura 13.4.1 went through testing behind the scenes, but problems have slipped through the cracks into Apple’s latest version of macOS Ventura."
Search the internet and you'll find website saying that about *everything*... so I simply ignore that. Best to focus on your problem of edits not being saved.
Where is your library stored? And if it's on an external, what format is that?
I would update Ventura to the latest version, 13.4.1
Good work( tongue in cheek ) tracking down this information which is about as reliable as a general Web Search with wording " Does macOS require Third Party Security Software for Viruses "
