Q: iphone photos in Memories or Collections are grouped by location photo taken, date. Exported to iphoto, they don't show the location. How do I get this great feature? Please?
My iphone 5s shows photos in Memories or Collections in groups labelled with Location taken and Date.
This is great.
But when exported to iphoto on my Mac, I can't get automatic location added to the chronological groups of photos. Why not?
A section explaining iphoto is below. Why does iphone have this great location info yet iphoto doesn't? Apple, do please make this possible!
Change whether iPhoto looks up locations using GPS coordinates
- With iPhoto open, choose iPhoto > Preferences, and then click Advanced.
- Choose an option from the “Look up Places” pop-up menu:Note: Each setting affects all photos in your photo library.
- Automatically: iPhoto looks up all GPS coordinates to find location names, and marks those places with a marker pin on the Places map.
- Never: iPhoto never looks up location names and doesn’t mark the locations of photos (even if you manually added locations to the photos). So, why not Apple?
Mac mini, OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), Microsoft Office 2011
