Hi,
+Has anyone else had this problem? Any workarounds?+
+I have a number of pictures that just show up in the wrong place in Places' list view, but I cannot seem to move them. For example, a photo will show up as being in state X in city Y when it was actually taken at a "Place" in state A, city B. So I click on the photo, hit command-i, type in the name of a place in A/B, and hit done. (Pressing command-i again shows the new name and a pin in the correct place.) However, the photo still shows up when I select state X and city Y from the places browser. This persists even after restarting iPhoto.+
+Any ideas?+

+Does not seem to be an issue with the latest version of iPhoto.+
Im not sure why this has been closed as it is an issue for me as well,
eg, Trafalgar Square photos appear in the London Eye pushpin, but when checking the photos individually they are correct.
I am fully up to date with my software and this issue only appears to have raised itself on the latest version of iphoto (8.1 (415))
Removing the locations and re-adding them does not fix the issue you just end up with the same result or a different mixture of incorrect pictures in the push pins.

The best way to get assistance on the forum is to provide a clear and detailed description of the problem and report any steps you've already taken to solve the issue and anything that resulted therefrom.
Im not sure why this has been closed as it is an issue for me as well,
It's been closed because the User who had this issue found a solution. Only the person who creates the thread can close it. This person had no idea you even existed, let alone that you might have a similar issue. I'm sure if he had he'd have left it open, just waiting for you to come along.
Is not a resolving answer to the issue and appears to be a very narrow minded approach to resolving issues!
Let's see. Someone has an issue. They create a thread on the forum. They find a solution. They mark the thread as answered. This is narrow minded?
