Suddenly this morning when I try to enter a keyword in the auto complete field nothing is working - no suggestions. No list pops up of keywords already in the system of which there are thousands. I just did the latest update to the program so wondering if this got broken in the latest update. Anyone else seeing this problem on a Mac?

Check the Preferences>Interface tab to make sure that "Auto-complete text in Keywords Tags field" hasn't been unchecked.

Wow, thank you! I did NOT uncheck that and have not even gone into preferences in a long time. Seems the latest update unchecked it for me...grrr :mad2:

Thanks again, Jim.
 
Yes, there have been a few things like that over the last couple of updates (changing the Show Photos in Subfolders setting comes to mind, though that's not actually a preference).
