P: Issue with Map module in OS X 10.10 (Yosemite)

What makes you think we aren't talking to Apple?

Do you guys listen? It is NOT hardware specific! It relates to slow broadband and the upload LR is trying to make during a map load!! Please read the comments....

So tell me Chris why Adobe can not talk to apple but even more important how do you expect lr6 to work when you don't know what's wrong with lr5

Nobody is joking. As already stated: "The engineering team is investigating what changed in 10.10 to cause this issue. Because it appears to be hardware specific and involves changes in source code (OS X) we don't have access to, it makes it especially difficult."

When additional information is available, we will update this topic.

Chris you have got to be joking your team asked for our machine tech what have you learned

Please see the existing replies from the Lightroom team.

Hello Adobe, is anyone there? I notice you remember to take my subscription on time each month. Is the courtesy of an update on this problem too much to ask?

I don't know if this works for you but my workaround is to switch my internet connection to my 4g Mobile phone hotspot while I do LR Map work then switch back to my regular ADSL internet connection. Clumsy but at least it's workable.

my short term (hopefully) workaround is to geotag by getting the GPS coordinates from Bing maps and pasting them into the metadata.

I recently took a 4 week photo trip to Merritt Island, Anahuac Tx and Galveston. Throughout the trip I was anticipating how cool the back roads and trails would be in the map section of lightroom. Which was working perfectly when I left. I got home and there were all these upgrades to do on my computer including LR 5.6 and Yosemite. Then of course Map didn't work. Do you recommend waiting till Adobe (you) get LR fixed, or going back to Mavericks (I don't know what is involved or how or if it is even possible) to enjoy my vacation to the Max. I have. Mini Mac
