In rare cases, Photos in OS X Yosemite v10.10 placed pictures at the wrong geographic location.
This issue is resolved in OS X El Capitan v10.11 for newly added pictures. For pictures placed incorrectly by previous versions of Photos, you can correct locations with these steps:
- Select an incorrectly located picture.
- Choose Image > Location > Remove Location from the menu bar.
- Press Command-I to display the picture's info.
- At the bottom of the Info window, click Assign a Location.
- Begin typing an address, city, business, or other location name. As you type, auto-fill suggestions will appear. Select the location you want to assign to the picture.
Repeat these steps for any picture that has an incorrect location.
