Places in photo app

I'm in the USA and do not have any international plan. When on vacation in the Caribbean on a cruise the camera knew where I was. When in Canada I took pictures but they are NOT in "my places".
Is this strange?

The camera should be able to geotag your pictures with a location even without an international plan, yes, Canada or the Caribbean shouldn't matter. (You can prevent geotagging from happening by turning Location Services off for the Camera in Settings, General, Location Services, BTW--you might want to make sure it is still on, just in case)
However, several people are reporting that Places isn't showing all their geotagged pictures.
I'm assuming it's a bug--report it to Apple via AppleCare, Genius Bar, or http://apple.com/feedback
Possibly the 4.1 update will fix it.

Maps not loading in "Places", inside Photo app

On my 3G, after the upgrade to iOS4, in the Photo app, the "places" map doesn't load...
The app shows the foto-pins (correctly placed), but doesn't load any map from google... I already tried both in WiFi and 3G only mode, but the app just shows a "squared grey map" (i.e. no map loaded).
I also tried to start the app in airplane mode, and the popup reminding that a data connection is needed, correctly shows up...
Any clue?
Thanks

Sorry to contradict you but I've zoomed in and out on the map that appears in Photos > Places on an iPhone 3G under iOS4 once the map has been forced to appear correctly and I can go from one small part of the UK to the entire world and back again. Yes, the update of the map is not too quick (depending on 'scale'), but it does work and you can scroll without problem.
When there are several pins in a small area, zooming in spreads them out and updates the map too.

I am facing a strange problem on new iphone 5 that I bought last week. The maps app and the places in photo gallery shows the pin and my location, however there is no information of locations. Tried to close the apps, phone restart, reset etc. Please help

I am facing a strange problem on new iphone 5 that I bought last week. The maps app and the places in photo gallery shows the pin and my location, however there is no information of locations. Tried to close the apps, phone restart, reset etc. I am accessing it via strong wireless connection and it works fine on other devices. Please help.

Then no information exists. Use the Report a Problem button within the app to report it.

Photos not showing up in "Places" tab in Photos app

Hi everyone,
I recently just imported a bunch of newer pictures from my Aperture library onto my iPhone. The photos show up fine in the Photos app under Photo Library and Albums, but they do not show up in the 'Places" tab. I have all the location information in the photos in my Aperture library.
The weird thing is all the older photos I had on my phone from previous syncs show up in the "Places" tab. Am I missing something to get this info to show up on my phone?
Thanks for your help.

I figured it out if anyone else is having the same issue. I had to manually kill the photo app and it updated the pictures I just added when I re-opened it.

Faces and Places not showing in photo app on iPad

Before when i first got my iPad I remember seeing the faces and places tabs on the top bar of the photo app but now when I open the app i can only see albums pictures and events. How do I get them back?

So I noticed the same thing you guys are talking about, and it has been driving me crazy. I have a mac mini, with ilife 08. v 7.1.5 i think. I do not have the places and faces in my iphoto. But I do have an android phone that has geotagging. I got photos off my android that were geotagged and put them in an album in iphoto. when I synced that event to my photos on my ipad. the places tab reappeared. The odd thing is, the photos that I originally saw in Places before it vanished are no longer tagged in the map, neither are some other photos that I took with my android that were supposedly geotagged. so no, you do not need only a mac, and no you do not ilife 09 for this to work. I am assuming it will be much easier with ilife 09, but i can life without this feature for $70. FYI. hope it helps

IPhone 5 "places" map in photos app only showing very first photo taken.

I got my iPhone 5 three days ago and have taken 20 something or so photos on the camera. Location services is enabled for the camera and photos, yet the only photo showing up on the "places" map of the photo app is the very first photo I took, right after buying the phone. I have no clue why none of the other photos are showing up in the places map & would appreciate any help making them all show up on the map.

mcytron [and Dhalberg]...
Thank you, for posting this problem and the resolution.
I have just returned from a two month 14,500km Kimberly's and Red Centre trip, and found to my absolute disappointment that all of my iPhone 5 photos had a horrid blueish tinge.
a) by chance, I found when fiddling with iPhoto Edit that on the photos with this tinge, that the Revert to Original button was highlighted.
Click on that button, and the photo colour profile was magically restored.
b) OK, but how do I proceed now; select every photo, and select Edit, Revert to Original for every one? I have 600 plus photos to fix.
I began looking for a method of doing a Batch Change, which I have used in the past to adjust the time [and date] of photos imported from my wife Olympus SZ-14, and bingo, found the Photos, Revert to Original button in the top menu bar drop down.
It worked a treat. I was able to select all the effected photos [in fact did a Ctlr a on the entire collection], and all 600 plus were restore in a few minutes, withthe click of one button.
Phew...

Photos App and images that have no place data

I am considering moving to the Photos App from iPhoto, but I have a large number of old photos and documents that have no location data. Most were scanned several years ago, such as genealogy records, birth certificates, etc. How does Photos handle these images? Do they appear in Collections and Moments like other images even though they have no location data? Must I assign each some arbitrary location if I want the images to stay together? Should I also alter the "time the image was taken" as well? If not, I assume they will be sorted according to the time the image was added to iPhoto.

Photos without location data will appear in the moments based on the date. If the photos have no capture date, the file creation date will be used.
Must I assign each some arbitrary location if I want the images to stay together?
How are your photos stored now? If the are in iPhoto you could assign places to them and adjust the dates of your scans to group them by date in a meaningful way before migrating the library to Photos.
But photos will also allow you to create albums or smart albums based on keywords and other tags. iPhoto events will be mapped to albums.

Gps locations where I take my photos (in the photos app, under places).

I'm thinking about upgrading to the iPhone 5 but I want to keep the gps locations where I take my photos (in the photos app, under places). Is there any way that I can transfer this information to an iPhone 5?

Missing "places" grouping in photo' app.

In new iOS 7 the grouping of places is missing. Is there an alternatieve??
When Will this be fixed??

Hi!
Places tab has been removed in iOS 7 however in the photos app pictures are organized by places and time taken. To view places for a specific moment click the bar where it shows date of the taken pictures. This most likely won't be fixed by Appe, because of this new feature in iOS 7. Hope this helps you.
Kind regards,

How can I enable the Places and Faces Button in the Photos App?

There is no button in my Photos App which shows Faces or Places. What do I have to do? Do I need to install iPhoto first, and then enable Faces and Places there, in order to have it on the Photos App? I am using an iPad3 WIFI only.

You sync those folders from iPhoto on a Mac computer. Those are "built in" folders in the iPhotos app on a Mac. I don't use iPhoto for iOS, so I cannot comment on whether they exist in the app itself.
Those folders will sync automatically from iPhoto if they have been selected to sync in iTunes. You don't set them up on the iPad.

How do I export an album from the iPhone Photos app in a form that retains location information so I can import it to ArcMap or Google Earth?

I have an iPhone 4S with OS 5.1 installed and I have taken several hundred photos that are geotagged and that show up in the Places page in the Photos app. These were taken for field work and have data in them that we want to use to tie information in the photos to locations in a GIS application. Therefore I would like to be able to export the mapped locations along with the photos in a way that would allow me to upload the locations to ArcMap or to Google Earth. I know that the individual photos have location information but the process of uploading them to Panoramio one at a time is labor-intensive, whereas I can take an entire album in the Photos application and quickly display locations tied to photos on the screen.
Also these photos were taken before I enabled iCloud on my iPhone and I'm wondering how to upload them even though they were taken previously. When I go into the "share" menu my only options are email, tweet, message, and print. I'd like to send the whole album to iCloud so I can at least bring it back into applications on my Macbook Pro.
Does anyone have a recommendation as to how I can go about doing either of these things?

This is something that I want to do as well. I'm new to applescript, but I found this script:
http://www.bagelturf.com/aparticles/tips/tipprint/index.php
Go to about half way down the page. The script works well, but I'd like to change it so that I only export Versions w/ a specified "main rating" (or greater than a minimum rating)
If you look at the script, there's a line:
"set theimages to every image version as list"
FYI: "image version" is an Aperture class that represents an image version. "main rating" is a property of "image version"
Is there a way to modify this applescript statement to spec only those "image versions" that meet a min "main rating"? I tried a bunch of things, and none of them compiled. (I need to learn Applescript)
If not, then how could this be done w/ a little loop in Applescript?
Thanks for your help!

How do i transfer a video back onto my iPhone in the Photo app where it originally was and can be shared from (NOT the video app)

I have a video that i originally took using my iphone but then transfered to my PC. I want to put it back onto my iPhone in the photo app (NOT video app) so i can share it straight from my phone.
Since one of the iphone updates enabled the volume button as a camera shutter button and i was shooting the video one handed, i held the camera with the volume buttons on top. Unfortunatly, the phone still saves it in such a way that only the iphone and itunes recognize the proper orientation intended and when it's opened with any other device or program, it automatically makes the part of the video that's against the smooth side of the phone always the top side (regardless of if that makes the video sideways or upside down). I was able to get the video back onto my phone as a "video" where it shows up in the video app as a "movie" and there are no options to share via text, email, youtube (which were options when the video was still in the photo app). I need to be able to share the video with family

Have you transferred photos from your computer to your iPhone which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?
If so, you can place this video in the folder of photos on your computer that is selected to be transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process. Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select Include Videos.
