gps coordinates getting lost during synchronise folder

Jun 18, 2012 12:37 AM

I took a trip yesterday and wanted to tag my images with gps data.  I used my Samsung Galaxy 8.9 tablet's camera to record gps info by taking a shot at each location.  The gps data is in the jpegs.  I copied the images into my folder containing the images from my camera. I can use Photo GPS Extractor to view the image's location on Google Maps.  The image location is also indicated on Google maps when viewing on the tablet.  But, when I synchronise the folder to add the images to the Lightroom Library, the gps info is no longer available.  The gps info is not available to ANY program after synchronising the folder in Lightroom.  It seems as if Lightroom is removing that info from the metadata.

 

I have Googled the problem for the past day and can not find any information.  If anyone can provide info, a solution, or point me in the right direction, it will be greatly appreciated. 

 

Windows 7 64bit, Lightroom 4.1
