Last February I returned from a month vacation in Florida with close to 1,000 digital images of birds, beaches, sunsets, and wildflowers — all captured in Camera Raw with a Canon 10D. I painstakingly ranked all the images (deleting some) over several weeks, adding descriptive metadata and keywords in addition to the rankings.
No matter what I do, however, I seem to lose the rankings once I shut down CS and the Mac, then start up again. I’ve tried exporting cache and that doesn’t seem to help. All the rest of the metadata added to the file stays intact. As an additional oddity, the problem may have started when I downloaded Camera Raw 2.2 from the Adobe site to get the raw image processing updates for the Canon Powershot Pro1, but I’m not entirely sure of that. It may have been coincidental that I noticed the problem at that time.
Anyone else had this problem and know an answer to it? I really wanted to use the rankings as a primary sort, and I can’t remember having this problem with Raw files under Photoshop 7.0 (at that time using a D60). Any suggestions would be appreciated.
