Not able to manually upload photos to website (Safari version 17.5)

Bug Reports
1

I am trying to manually upload photos to the website though the Safari version 17.5
(https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/upload). When I drag and drop, the observations would normally populate with the photo and date. Starting yesterday, the observation would form without the photo or date information.

I start by clicking the Upload button, which takes me to the screen where I drag and drop the photos (or I can click Choose Files and a menu allows me to select photos from my files). Either way, the observations aren’t populating with the photo and date. If I click Submit Observations then I get the message “Some observations are missing media or identifications”

I tried adding screenshots to my bug report, but those uploads didn’t work either

Thanks,
Kenneth Bader

Have you edited the photos prior to upload? Sometimes that affects the metadata.

Started noticing that I couldn’t upload into Facebook or eBird, so I restarted my computer, and that seems to have solved the problem.
