Orientation
EXIF Orientation Wrong on Mac?
Orientation tags tell viewers how to rotate pixels. Wrong or missing tags cause sideways galleries, odd thumbnails, and print errors after phone-to-Mac round-trips.

If EXIF Orientation looks wrong on the Mac, inspect the tag before you blame the CMS or printer. Some tools only flip Orientation; others bake rotation into pixels and leave a stale tag. Phones writing HEIC/JPEG, Lightroom exports, and web resizers disagree on which approach they use.
Check Orientation before batch resizing, DAM upload, or print. A sideways select in one viewer and correct in another usually means one renderer honors the tag and another ignores it—or the pixels were rotated while the tag was not updated.
MSAM.media apps—ExifTool Reader, ExifTool Reader Pro, and EXIF Exporter Pro—run on macOS and are sold only through the Mac App Store. Use them to see the Orientation value on the file you will deliver. Fixing rotation belongs to your editor after you know whether the problem is the tag, the pixels, or both.
