Changing Image Locations
If you’ve assigned an incorrect location to photos, it’s easy to change their location
information. There are three methods for reassigning image locations:
• To change the location assignment for all photos associated with a location: You can move
the location pin in Places view.
• To change the location assignment for a subset of images associated with a location: You
can reassign the location for the image subset using the Assign Location dialog.
• To change the location assignment for a single image: You can reassign the location for
the image using the Map pane of the Metadata inspector. For more information, see
Modifying Location Information Using the Metadata Inspector.
To move a pin, changing the location for all images with that location assignment

• In the Library inspector, select Places.
• Select the item in the Library inspector containing the images whose location you want
to change, then click the Places button in the toolbar.
2 In Places view, click the Move Pins button.
The location pins on the Places view map turn purple, indicating that they can be moved.
3 Drag the incorrectly placed pin to the correct location, then click Done in the dialog that
appears at the bottom of Places view.
The location pin is moved to its new location, and the location information is changed
for all images associated with the original location.
