P: Drag and drop GPS tagging not working. Right click on map also not working

  • March 5, 2019

I cannot geotag photos in the 'Maps' module of Lightroom 8.2. Drag & Drop does nothing, and right click 'set selected photos GPS coordinates' does nothing. There is no error, no message, no metadata is updated at all. 

On initial startup, if I am very quick, I can drag & drop a photo successfully. But ~15 seconds after startup it stops working. 

My issue is identical to those posted here. https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lightroom-8-latest-update-win10-drag-and-drop...

v8.2 seemed to solve the problem for many, but it did not help me. 

I have provided sample photos and logs to Adobe staff already and communicated with them, but as the original thread is now marked 'solved' I have created a new one. 

I have address book enabled. I am on OS Windows 7 Ultimate.

    Well ladies & gentlemen,
    Issue was solved for me... a few days, after switching my screen to a lower resolution.
    However with the current version of Lightroom Classic (9.1) issue is still there.

    I cannot use the map module to apply gps info to any picture. When drag and drop an image to the map. Nothing happen.

    ADOBE HELP !!!!!!!!

    Please help your loyal customers and fix this issue !
    I opened a case to the support, waiting for an answer.

    My resolution has always been 1920x1080. So this is not a solution for me. 

    I don't see how resolution should matter, and I suspect the problem will return. 😞
