Re: Searching Caption word
No, the files do not appear if I search using spotlight. Sounds like a spotlight issue then. I'll try updating my system and see what happens.Thanks for your help.

Re: Searching Caption word
<t>The files are on my hard drive. I excluded the folder that contains the files then un-excluded it to force Spotlight to reindex it. I did this two days ago and it still is not finding files. Here are more details. I have about 2500 images in a folder (with subfolders) called 'cuba'. Each image is...

Searching Caption word

Reverse Geocoding not adding state
Attachments :sDSC04249.JPGI am using GC 9.4 (1727). I have geotagged pictures of my last vacation but many do not have the city/state/country. When I use GC to reverse geocode them, the city and country are added but not the state. Is there a setting I have to adjust? Thanks.

Re: Search IPTC Caption?
<t>I was just on the phone with Apple (for over 2 hours) and they don't have an answer. The only thing they could say is spotlight will not index the caption field (because they probably don't know what it is - does it have an official name, like EXIF Caption? or IPTC Caption?) and they don't know ...

Re: Search IPTC Caption?
Oh, I was so hopeful. I re-indexed my external hard drive and it is still not finding it.Again, it is finding terms in the Title field but not the Caption field. So the photo itself is being indexed but just not the Caption field.Any other suggestions? Thank you for your help.
