I have the same issue! ... View more

I missed your last post, have you read mine?  I opened a seperate app and uploaded it.  There is quite a difference between the "sync" granted that did take place and the previous functionality, as stated in the next post below.  It's the lack of prior communication that wastes everyones time and why so many are in these forums.  Adobe is not shy in communicating sales pitches, my Creative Cloud Desktop app (I get the reference now") is suppose to be my customer portal, bothe the HOME and the APPs windows are a sea of advertising, it doesn't even distinguish between customers, the side bar lists my apps yet it's trying to sell me stuff I already have!  What a dismissive attitude!  The sceens look like the dogs breakfast, my interests are restricted to two tiny sidebars.  Can you help me clear that up too? Thanks for all your help Kglad. Chris ... View more

Hi Kglad,  What is gone is most of the utility of it, for myself and a lot of others in the various posts I've seen.  Sync is gone, the ability to save to the cloud directly from Photoshop, limited to one useful (PDF) file format for images, I use tif jpeg psd psb.  The loss of sharing folders, and the the day I had planned yesterday is gone.  I had read that I could sync with Lightroom but it appears only Smart Previews can be uploaded, still I have sync turned on in Lightroom but can't make that work either.  From what I read here; ( https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/lightroom-classic/kb/sync-faq.html?trackingid=J469WNQ9&mv=in-product ) syncing between apps is; Lightroom Classic to Lightroom Desktop to Lightroom web from there to mobile, is that correct?  What is Lightroom Desktop?  As I understood it Lightroom Clasic is Desk top.  I have Photoshop Photographers Package for Desktop and I have Classic on a Desktop.  I don't use Lightroom for much, so even if it works it still means opening another app.   What is left?  A folder with no purpose is in my navagation pane that I can't get rid of, a greyed out button on my save as dialog box that alerts me to the fact thet something isn't working.  Ambiguous and confusing comunications from Adobe, in all communications, in all situations and in all circumstances dismissive of wasting our time.  last but not least my frustration Kglad, that remains.  It seems the only thing that does sync for me now is the Creative Cloud app on my computer and the Cloud but in all I have read in the last day not once have I read that syncing (though again from a different app) can be done from my computer without going  to a browser a very small plus.  I have not heard any suggested workarounds or simple explanations as to how to use the features at present or their  expected future utility.  It seems that has been taken from the subscription is being rehashed for resale as new products, leaving a lame duck version like preinstalled apps on my phone, useless and taking up space. Adobe needs to hire a !@%/? writer, a writer of instruction manuals, a step by step guide top to bottom on how to operate the thing and clear communications when changes are made, unlike “ the sync feature will no longer be available as of Feb 1 2024” or stating in the Lightroom Classic syc FAQ you can sync between “Classic, Desktop or Mobile” leaving all of us to individually waste hours trying to recover our understanding. A single writer would remember that Classic is on a desktop and not confuse the two. Lastly what the hell is Lightroom Ecosystem, how many versions do you need, one product should have one name with options.  I don't need my understanding scrambled once a month. Could you kindly help me remove this redundant folder from my navigation pane? Thank you Kglad Chris ... View more

Thank you for your reply,   The first link is what I use.  Gone!   The second link goes nowhere, three dots indicating movement on a dark ground.  I had read that Lightroom could be used to save to my cloud storage but it does not work.   The third link is a free trial of Acrobat,  hmm... and the only format is PDF, well what do ya think of that eh?  It's a Acrobat ad!  LOL   And the forth link is an ad for Adobe Express, how expected!    Could you then help me to get the "Creative Cloud Files Personal Account Folder" off my navagation pane? Second can you help me delete the 20 GB of Cloud Storage from my account, all I have in there is my 40 or so swatches for backup and 20 GB seems like a lot for swatches.   Thanks Chris     ...

Thank you I will have a look. ... View more

Thanks to both, This is what I found.  I had occasionaly found this and it was easily removed, I don't remember the tonal pattern remaining, if it did I would have noticed so either not that extreme or it to was removed. This was maybe ten years ago so the sensor had an anti aliasing filter and I was using Capture One at the time. Again thanks  Chris ... View more

Yes I am, shootint fabric or other subjects that may clash with the camera sensor array, yes, there are techniques to reduce or remote.  It use to be part of the local adjustments and it is now available after I make a mask. Thank you, problem solved! Chris ... View more

Is there a lens profile available for the Nikkor Z 24-70mm f2.8s that can be imported into Camera Raw? Thanks Chris ... View more

Thanks, It's good to know that bridge works without saving metadata, I tend to use Bridge over lightroom and do all my edits in PS or ACR. Chris ... View more

The confirmation that PS is not capable does help thanks, keeping Bridge/Lightroom open and open files from there works OK but is another open app. Thanks Chris ... View more

Thanks it was a bit of a circle between System restore and an update.  There was a install of the 2015-2019 Redistributable in the System Restore, it seems it was Creative Cloud.  There must have been some sort of coruption during this action which just kept reoccuring.  In the end I did a complete uninstall/reinstall of all Redistributables then manually uninstalled all remaining Photoshop, Bridge and Lightroom and still a few more Creative Cloud files and a clean install of Creative Cloud seems to have worked. Thanks again. ... View more

So the problem is the changing Redistributables and the missing dlls.  I just did a system restore and while it reverted to the 2017 the 2015 Redistributable is not listed as installed in Programs and Features.  This is probably why the last atempt came up with missing dlls.  They are missing.  I was about to restore further back to try and find themmaybe I can just download, install them and see what that gives me. ...

Thanks for the reply. DLL-FILE.COM I thought that the Redistributable s were partof the framework and that the dlls in question were part of the 2015 Redistributable ... View more

A reinstall did it. ... View more
