Data not saving to ITPC Info
« on: May 08, 2022, 03:00:48 PM »
Have read all the info already posted but the solutions appear to address all instances.  I am having trouble ONLY having the IPTC data "take" on certain .jpg files;  From some saved from one person and sent via Facebook, and now .jpg's from my own iPhone which were taken just yesterday. If I open the file in Preview and export it as a TIFF, the IPTC data saves fine.  I also just added some data to .png files and it takes fine.  There must be a setting somewhere that i have inadvertently changed.  Any thoughts?

OOPS: I FOUND THE answer! - In the Preferences, under IPTC, somehow the item "For jpegs with multiple IPTC records, read:" I had "First one" checked instead of "last one",  That seems to have fixed the problem.

Jon Paul,

There was a bug in build 6424 that caused the behavior that you're describing.  Build 6474 fixes that problem.  What build are you using?
