I recently noticed that when I export iPhone photos from Apple Photos on my Macbook Pro to a local folder on my hard drive, then import them into Lightroom Classicfrom there, the location information (Metadata) doesn't import and it also gets deleted from the photos on the hard drive. I have run several tests. After exporting from Apple Photos on the MBP, I check for location data attached to the photos and so long as I had internet access when the photo was taken it shows the GPS data in Preview > Tools > Show Location Info (or in the panel next to the file name in Finder way at the bottom). If I import just a few of those photos that I confirmed had GPS data attached, the photos that were imported into Lightroom no longer show any location info, but the remaining photos that were not imported still have theri location info. Has anyone else noticed this issue? If so did you find a fix. I would really like to use the Map module in Lr Classic, but don't want to manually load 6,000 photo locations 4-5 times a year, especially since they are all over the country as I photograph while traveling in a motorhome. Thanks for your help.
