Trouble copying from ImageDescription to Keywords

I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

I'm using Windows version 6.78. The command I'm running is:

exiftool "-IPTC:ImageDescription>IPTC:Keywords" -r .

What I get is:

Warning: [minor] Possibly incorrect maker notes offsets (fix by -4294954812?) - ./Copy of IMG_1053. +jpg Warning: [minor] Possibly incorrect maker notes offsets (fix by -4294958969?) - ./IMG_1053.jpg 1 directories scanned 0 image files updated 2 image files unchanged

I tried:

exiftool "-IPTC:ImageDescription>IPTC:Keywords" -r @ -makernotes -F .

based on a suggestion in another post, but when running that, I get:

Error: Error opening file - @ Warning: [minor] Adjusted MakerNotes base by -4294954812 - ./Copy of IMG_1053.jp g Warning: [minor] Adjusted MakerNotes base by -4294958969 - ./IMG_1053.jpg 1 directories scanned 2 image files updated 1 files weren't updated due to errors

Again, my goal is to copy what shows up in either "Image Description" or "User Comment" to Keywords. I'd like to do this recursively. Also, can you tell me if the file is being recompressed when utilizing exiftool this way? Thanks in advance,
