Hello @Cindy-1305
I am not sure I understand the problem you're seeing. I can't reproduce any problem on the latest app version release, v10.3.1
Pleasse check that you are updated to the latest release v10.3.1
could you share a screen recording showing the problem? How to: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102653
note: before you do the screen recording, it would be great if you could go into Lightroom's App Settings, and at the very bottom of the Input screen please enable "Show Touches" so we can see how you are interacting with the app.

@kimberly_5302 Let me ask some questions that may help us understand what's happening:
Can you confirm that your images do not have the Reject (X) flag set when you look at them in Info / Metadata view, in Lightroom? Rejected images are automatically hidden from view of any guest user who visits your shared album
Is your device or your network using any firewall, proxy, vpn, or other network security settings or software that might block access? If so, can you share what you're using?
When we tried example shared albums from other users who reported similar trouble, the images did always load OK. This points to some type of network security setting blocking normal traffic. For Adobe cloud-based apps to work, these server endpoints must be reachable: https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/kb/network-endpoints.html
If you are using a proxy, additional advice on this page might also help: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/proxy-authentication-support-creative-cloud.html

Hello again @roque de holandc50018993
My teammate @Sameer K shared the correct info. My thoughts on the image resolution that shared album guests can access was wrong. I tried this and confirmed just now, as a guest with no advanced permissions, that I can download the full resolution image in a shared album. But this requires the original image be available in Lightroom cloud storage, and Lr Classic does not upload original images. Only the cloud-based Lightroom CC for Mac or Windows, or Lightroom Mobile or web app at lightroom.adobe.com can upload original images.

Hello @roque de holandc50018993
If you invite other people to your album with "Can Edit" rights, then they can access and download images at original resolution. I understand this permissions level is not always desirable. The Lightroom apps are working to improve the album sharing experience and I will let them know your experience is a reminder that there is sometimes a need for album guests to download full size images.

I suspect this is a platform limitation, not a LR iOS bug. Let me ask: do the image files from your camera display in iOS Photos or iOS Files apps?
In Lightroom's import screen, Lightroom can show thumbnails for an image only if the iOS platform itself can show those thumbs. Sometimes unsupported images display as empty thumbs, Lightroom Mobile can at least detect these and import them. Only after Lightroom has imported and processed such images can the Lightroom app display them. Other times, the iOS platform will not even display empty thumbnail placeholders for unsupported images. Nothing appears at all in the native iOS Photos app or Files app. In this case, Lightroom Mobile also can't see the images at all, and cannot import them.
My advice: try import via LR Web instead: sign into your account at https://lightroom.adobe.com using a device (Mac or PC) that shows the files on SD memory. Using this Lightroom web app, you can drag-and-drop your SD memory images straight into your account, even into a specific album if that's preferred. If you have access to the Lightroom desktop app, then use that -- I just mention the LR Web app since that's also available to Lightroom Mobile-only subscribers.
I hope this info helps in some way!

The Lightroom Mobile team is still working to resolve this issue. Rikk did share good advice about accessing existing subscribed accounts at https://lightroom.adobe.com
There is a work-around that allows users to sign into Lightroom Mobile.
Steps:
1. Please follow the advice on this"Reset password" help page:
https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/change-or-reset-password.html
2. Once you have created a password at Adobe for your Google email ID, launch Lightroom Mobile.
3. On Lightroom's sign in screen, then tap the "Adobe" sign in option, and email ID + new Adobe password.
Why does this help? When using a social service like Google, Facebook, etc to sign in, that other service shares your email ID but handles the sign in validation. This social service password is not shared to Adobe. By using Adobe's Reset Password process, a new Adobe-specific password is created for the email ID. This allow users to sign in directly to Adobe with user email ID + password. (Later, one can still sign back into the same Adobe account with the social platform option instead, if that is preferred.)

Hello @julia_8110
It might be best to contact Adobe Support directly. This is a peer-support forum. I am an Adobe employee, but work on the Lightroom iOS team and not Adobe Support, so I don't have all the tools that might be needed to help.
Still, I can see certain details that tell me you have more than one account. I will send you a separate, direct message to share details more privately.

Hello @iwaddo77
If you saw a separate message from me, please ignore that. It was a response to an unrelated issue.
I suspect this is a platform limitation, not a LR iOS bug. Let me ask: do .ORI files from your camera display in iOS Photos or iOS Files apps?
In Lightroom's import screen, Lightroom can show thumbnails for any image that the platform itself can show. However, if iOS can not show thumbs at all for camera images in the native iOS Photos app or Files app, then LR also won't be able to see the images to import them.
If iOS Files or Photos only shows blank thumbs, then LR iOS can at least recognize that there are image files even if iOS is unable to provide preview thumbs for the LR import screen. Importing blank images allows Lightroom to process said images and display them. But LR iOS can't import images when iOS does not even display thumbnails/placeholders.
My advice: try import via LR Web instead: sign into your account at https://lightroom.adobe.com using a device (Mac or PC) that shows the files on SD memory. Using this Lightroom web app, you can drag-and-drop your SD memory images straight into your account, even into a specific album if that's preferred. If you have access to the Lightroom desktop app, then use that -- I just mention the LR Web app since that's also available to LR Mobile-only subscribers.
Another idea I read might work (from my reading misc items online; not something I tried myself): Rename the file from .ORI to .ORF. That might allow iOS to at least show a blank thumb for Lightroom to import, process, and ultimately display. I see support for OM-1 .ORF files has existed in Lightroom for about 3 years now, according to: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html#Supportedcameramodels
I hope something here helps!

Hello @MD2254
Whoever made those presets must be specifying those unwanted characters as part of the "Preset Group" metadata. Lightroom iOS allows you to import presets (which put them in these named Preset Groups), and allows you to "Delete preset group" from the 3-dot menu shown inside a group of custom presets. But Lightroom on iPhone and iPad does not allow one to rename the preset group, which seems to be what you want. I just checked https://lightroom.adobe.com/, and the LR Web app also does not allow Preset Group renaming. I see this is possible in the Lightroom desktop app:
If your plan doesn't include access to Lightroom desktop, you can learn more various about that and perhaps be able to use a free 7-day trial to accomplish what you need. See: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/plans.html

In Lightroom, the Device shows your camera roll and iCloud photos. Deleting images in Lightroom's device tab is deleting it from Apple's system. In the Edit tab (that free Lightroom users see), or in the Lightroom tab (that paid Lightroom users see), deleting images removes them only from Lightroom+Lightroom's cloud storage, but not from your camera roll or iCloud.
Does this answer your question? If you are still unsure, I recommend you make a full backup of your device, and then try removing a single, unimportant image. Then see if that has the expected results.

Hello @scot.hacker
I am seeing the same behavior that shipped as a "fix" in v10.0. Here are the new rules: - Title will continue to be autocapitalized by word - Caption and Copyright will switch sentence - Keywords will have no rules
I see this still in v10.3, so nothing has changed or reverted back since 10.0. If I am missing the point, perhaps screenshots or a screen recording would help make your point clear.
Kind regards,
Charlie D

Hello @esthela44091871u8un
You tagged both Mac and iPadOS for this issue. Can you clarify your workflow, and share specific steps on how to reproduce this?
For example, which device imports the image, which device edits and applies Select Subject or Select Sky? And can you confirm which device does not see the edits sync and display?
Also, like Aleke asked, does the Lightroom Web app at https://lightroom.adobe.com show the edits?

Hello @hao_atlarge
Newer mobile devices with more RAM and faster processors will certainly deliver better performance, but if your main concern is with import and upload performance let me suggest a cheaper alternative:
All Lightroom subscriptions provide access to the LR Web app at https://lightroom.adobe.com
If you have a desktop or laptop computer, just sign into your subscribed Lightroom account. Import is as simple as drag-&-drop from your attached camera or SD memory into your account. You can even drop new images into a specific folder. Try it out, and see if this will work for you!

Hello @jkevinwolfe
I am checking with our server team again to see what can be done to address this on our side, if anything.
I wonder if it might help for your to uninstall the LR app on your purchase device, and then re-install the app and try Restore Purchase. Please do this on the same device that made the current subscription purchase. (Why try uninstalling? I wonder if the details about the previous plan you had remain on the device, and if this cruft is somehow blocking smooth transmission of newer subscription info.)

I am sorry your first attempt to get help from Adobe Support didn't go well. This is a peer-to-peer forum, and Adobe staff like me that volunteer advice for how to use the apps do not have the same training and tools as Support.
If Adobe Support said they can't help directly with subscriptions that are managed by the iOS App Store, it is because Apple owns the transactions. If Adobe Support can not restart your subscription, they should have advised you to contact Apple for a refund.
I urge you to try Adobe Support one more time to see if they can restart your subscription.

Hello @BOTaniker
Using the latest LR iOS app version 10.3, I cannot reproduce what you describe. I wonder if you might be confused thinking that settings you once specified in Export As.. might be used for all exports, ie., Save copy to device or Add border and share... Just now, I took a 24 MPix NEF raw image, and used Export As to use the settings you mentioned plus Dimensions = Largest Available, and the result was I saved a 146 MB size TIF file.
If you continune to see this problem, and nothing you try in Export As.. options helps, it might help us understand the problem if we can see a screen recording of your workflow. See: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102653

Hi @martinezrw
Thanks for sharing your workflow -- that is truly interesting!
I can tell you a fix has already been found. Our releases go out monthy, and the fix you need will go out with our May release which unfortunately is about a month away.
I have another suggestion for how to quickly harvest your LR camera images from the device:
Try using Mac OS or PC-based file sharing to connect you phone to a computer and copy Lightroom original images directly out of the app cache. See this page for more info: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-cc/kb/recover-lightroom-mobile-photos-itunes-file-sharing.html

While the team works on this, let me point out that even with a Lightroom Mobile-only subscription, as a work-around for now one can still sign into the same account in a web browser at https://lightroom.adobe.com

Hello @????_????????1296
This account you used to post for help had a Lightroom subscription, but that expired back in April 2022.
If you have a new active subscription to Lightroom subscription, you will need to sign into Lightroom with the correct email address that relates to that subscribed plan. In other words, sign into Lightroom using the same email address you used on your older device.

@fisher_4823
I still can't reproduce this. Could you try updating to the latest released app v10.3, and if you can still reproduce this would you mind sharing a screen recording or perhaps also a share link? I am more interested in see the data associated with your share than the images themselves, but do only share a link with me if you are OK sharing your images. If that is OK with you, click on my user name to send me a private message.
