The battery seems to be dead, but I don't care about that as I always use it plugged in. The power button wasn't working at all, so I took it into a repair shop. The man did something - he said he had re set it - and it worked fine in the shop. I took it back, and I still have the same problem - it won't turn on. I looked up re-setting, and went through the whole thing (unplug power cord, take out battery, hold down power button for 5 seconds, reconnect battery and power), but that doesn't help. Is it my power supply? (The green light comes on as normal.) Thanks, Ed. Hello,

What's more likely is that they will tag the image metadata with the longitude & latitude read from skyhook or GPS and then have iPhoto interpret the approximate location from the metadata after you sync.
