Library module Title and Caption Not Saving to Metadata

[SCWB]

Lightroom Version Number

LrC 14

Operating System

1. Windows 11

I have just installed the latest Lightroom Classic on a new Windows 11 PC. It is behaving differently than the previous one did on my prior PC (same versions of LrC). On the new PC/LrC, when in Grid View, with several photos selected, when I enter a Title in the Metadata Title field, the Title is saved to only the first photo of the selected set. In the prior PC, the Title would have saved to all the selected photos. The same applies for Caption. This issue is not happening with Keywords; a Keyword will save to all the selected photos on the new LRC. "Automatically Write Changes into XMP" is enabled in my Catalog Settings. Any suggestion??

Sounds like you have Target Photo set, click on Selected instead.

Yup! That did it. Thank you!! I remember this now., from when the Blog post came out. I selected the Selected option on the old PC/LrC back then, and haven't had to think about it since then. The same will probably happen again the next time I set up a new PC/LrC.
