Working with media files
Media Manager makes it easy to organize and manage your media files. You
can rename files and delete them from albums or Smart Views, update or
sort files in albums and Smart Views, and copy, move, or delete files from
albums. You can assign keywords and comments to files, to help you when
you are searching for media files.
You can view media files in a Preview window or as a full-screen
QuickShow.
This chapter gives an overview of managing your media files. For more
information, see the Media Manager Help Center.
