Once Photos have searched for a face i existing photos, the "add..." button disappears.
I have added a lot of new photos with faces in. But the "add..." button stays hidden.
So how do i get Photos to search for all faces again ?
iMac (24-inch Early 2009), OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)
The "Add" button is only visible in the Info panel, if you are viewing a photo enlarged. So click the thumbnail of the photo, then open the Info panel and you can add new faces.
Also, make sure, that "Show Faces Names" is enabled in the "View" menu.
Hi and thanks
I dont want to add one face from one photo manual.
I want Photos to search all new photos for faces that it i knows.
But when i go i the "Faces" album and klik on a face.
The option to search/add more photos to that face isn't there.
Do you know how to "reactivate" it ?

Photos is searching for Faces directly after you import new photos. And it is only searching them once, automatically. YOu cannot start it manually like you could in iPhoto.
This search is running at a background process, and it will take some time. Let your Mac run over night, while you are not using it, and the next time you launch Photos you should be seeing more faces to name.
OK i'll try 🙂
