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

On OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), the map in Lightroom's Map module is very slow to load. It takes several minutes before the first part of the map appears, and some parts don't load at all, saying instead "Sorry, we have no imagery here", even though the part in question is on Google Maps. When zooming in or out, it's the same, it takes very long to update.

Hi

Just made a post re same thing
https://forums.adobe.com/message/6862632

In my case i am using official Yosemite and lost map module on upgrade, i had a version LR 4 on at the same time which also failed in map module.

I mentioned in my thread that i only did the Yosemite upgrade after googling if any issues an Adobe said in tests this all worked fin

AS a CC user and paying monthly i would very much like to see a fix

For further reference if i geotag via a phone app and load that in LR 5.6 i can tag the images but no see the map.

Not that clever but i think this is a firewall kind of issue

Mine has had a clean install of Yosemite and CC Photoshop and LR 5.5 as far as i can tell everything else works as it should

Cheers

Reported three months ago. Sigh.

Same problem occurring with LR 4.4.1 and Yosemite. Will the fix be applied to this version, too? It's not exactly obsolete.

Surprised this wasn't identified by Adobe earlier. It's not exactly a 'hidden' problem.

No! Wait for Adobe to fix it sadly!

Well it is for me, as I mention in an earlier post my broadband is 3 to 5 m&s and maps does not work. If I plug my 4G phone to my Mac which achieves 15mbs maps works fine. Same iMac, same catalogue!

That's not true! I have two macs - one works, the other doesn't, both on identical LR/OSX releases. Also, I can kludge the non-working one into working by pre-fetching the map tiles on a browser.

It isn't speed related. It may be related to the number of images.

I hope Adobe take on board that this does appear to be related to broadband speed. Greater than 10mbs maps is ok, less than it is not!
