Yes I do have a metadata preset which includes all GPS and EXIF data. I typically load the raw images into the folder I wish to use and then add them to the Catalogue by clicking on "Add Folder".

Hi,

I did as you suggested and created a new catalogue and loaded the same image that I had sent to you previously. The GPS coordinates display as expected displaying the correct coordinates.

I am using- a Mac Pro - Mavericks 10.9.5 - Camera raw 8.6-Photoshop CC 14.2.1 x64

What do you suggest I do next?

Thanks

Dan Bryer

Also, do you have a metadata preset being applied in the Import window? Check here:

(Sorry for the delay in getting back.) When I import that pic into my LR 5.6 / OS X 10.9, the GPS coordinates display in the Metadata pane (see below). Both Photoshop CC 2014 and Exiftool also see the GPS metadata (as well as lots of other metadata), and Exiftool doesn't complain about any inconsistencies or other metadata issues.

So this suggests there's something going on with your configuration. Which version of LR and Windows/Mac?

Copy a problem NEF into a test folder by itself, without any accompanying .xmp or .jpg sidecars. Create a new catalog and import the NEF. Does the GPS location show up in the Metadata pane?

Get a free acount at Dropbox.com (if you don't have one already), upload the file there, and then post a Dropbox link to the file here.

Please excuse my ignorance about posting the image. To which email address do I submit the image?

Thanks

Dan

To troubleshoot this, I suggest you upload an offending pic to Dropbox (or similar service) and post the link here. One of us can then examine the file closely to see what might be going wrong and then suggest possible solutions or workarounds.

I have used an external GPS receiver on my Nikon cameras for the last 4 years. GPS coordinates stopped appearing in the metadata pane of Lightroom in August 2013 but always appear when viewed via Bridge.
