GPS Map Missing
« on: July 07, 2024, 06:18:25 AM »
I have no map in the Set CPS Coordinates function
MAC - Mojave 10.14.6.    Photo Mechanic Version 6.0, build 6880 (6fb7605)
Cannot Upgrade MAC OS without losing Nikon Capture NX-2 which isn't a good option for me
OS is old, PM is OLD I am ancient

If you can’t/won’t upgrade macOS then unfortunately there isn’t a solution. The map interface uses WebKit. The version of WebKit is dependent on the OS because apple ties its updates to OS updates. And google maps stopped supporting that version of WebKit a long time ago.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Are you requesting that we update Photo Mechanic to use Apple's Mapkit?

Also Reverse Geocode still works :) :)

Reverse Geocoding does not rely on a browser plugin to function, so it should continue to work as long as we keep the service going.

No, I am happy, there are several simple workarounds, I have separate GPS software to embed the location data into the image files and PM can do the reverse geocoding into the IPTC file...
