Q: Faces listing picture as having a missing face, but there is none there
Hi all,
I am using iPhoto '11 and have a smart album called "Missing Faces". The criteria is set to find all photos that have been scanned but have an unknown or untagged face in them. Works great for most pictures. I can see the pic and select the one or more faces that were found but not identified. However, one pic has 4 faces identified, no other faces listed, but still shows up as an unidentified face. The only criteria for this album is "face" "is" "unnamed". I cannot figure out why just this one photo is doing this. Anyone else experience this?
Thanks!

I just updated to iPhoto 9.1 and noticed that I had twenty photos in my Unnamed Faces smart folder, when I looked at the photos, I could find no unnamed faces in the photo. I realized that these were all cropped photos! When I "reverted to original", I found the unnamed face at the edge of the picture. I took care of the face and re-cropped the photo. The photo was eliminated from the smart folder.
