Q: Help!  I lost all the places data in iPhoto.

I tried a restore from time capsule , but it didn't help. All my pics show the same place on the map. Yesterday everything was fine. I was trying to assign the same location to a group of pics today, and somehow I assigned it to the whole library!  Every pic shows the same location in the bottom right corner when you open them up. The date it was taken is still good. I figure the geodata is still good? Is there a way to reassign the places?

    No idea sinc I have no idea how you actually did this

     

    Things to try

     

    In the iPhoto preferences is look up places set to automatically?

     

    you can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your database although this does not sound like library corruption

     

    try restoring a slghtly older backup - be sre the one you are restoring is prior to the problem occuting
