I didn't think LRCC used the Originals for editing? This is where I've stored a copy of my originals. According to Preferences - > Local Storage. Nothing in there gets edited, modified or otherwise altered. Just stored. I have them stored in Date order, and these are the last imports, stored as backups in that location. All images are stored in the Cloud, from where they are pulled to be worked on, modified or retouched. via Smart Previews. They are then available to all my devices. iPad, iPhone, and Desktop. If I need to revert to the original - it is pulled from the Cloud, not local storage. If I Save the modified image, it is saved to the Cloud as a smart preview, or I can Export it as a new file entirely. When I import new images, from any of my devices, they are immediately stored up in the Cloud and I can check this by going to the web interface, but they are also stored in the above location at the same time and left there. Becoming effectively a 'backup' In the Cloud, via lightroom.adobe.com the images and structure are exactly the same as on my Desktop and devices. Cloud (Web) base Desktop base As I mentioned in passing previously when I first imported all my images 43,854 of them, into Lightroom CC I originally had them in LRClassic. I also had them stored as originals on a spare drive. The import from LRClassic simply wouldn't work properly. Big mess. So I cleaned out LRCC, and reset it to 0. Carefully set up Preferences as you see, with the Originals stored on an Internal drive used only for that purpose. I then began the Import from the other image file repository. So the images were imported to LRCC, sent to the Cloud - I have a Fibre Optic connection the Internet, and stored locally at the same time in the designated storage location. The Import and Sync process took about a week to complete. Beware Adobe's pathetic Cloud/internet link. Even then, there ended up some six I think images that simply would not sync. They just sat there. On them, I gave up. I have no idea what happened to them in the end, because now some two months later everything seems to run smoothly. Now, if the original posters Local Storage of Original Copies are on a NAS drive, it shouldn't make a blind bit of difference. Unless there are Spaces somewhere in the Pathname to the folder on the NAS. That shouldn't matter - but sometimes it does. That's the whole idea of LightroomCC. You can work on your images from anywhere, as everything is stored in the Cloud. That's what I understand anyway? It works for me. Just out of curiosity - if the OP doesn't have that log file in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom CC/ then there is probably something wrong somewhere else. The file lrcc_console.log should be there. Don't forget the tilde at the start of the path. My apologies if I'm interrupting - but I find this interesting. because I've seen something somewhere else about NAS problems... and ... maybe the OP doesn't have enough Cloud storage? or a fast internet connection. Not that that matters because Adobe's isn't.
