Bug Reports

A smart collection uisng the criteria Collection and Publish Collection doesn't always update its results properly in LR 4.4 and LR 5 Beta (Windows 7 64-bit). Here's how to reproduce: 1. Create a Flickr publish collection named "test 1" with 1 photo. Create a collection named "test 2" with 2 different photos. 2. Define a smart collection named "Collection test" defined as "Match all", "Publish Collection contains test". Observe that it properly selects the 1 photo in the Flick publish collection "test 1". 3. Edit the smart collection to instead use the criterion "Collection contains test". Observe that it continues to select just the 1 photo in the publish collection "test 1", not the 2 photos in the collection "test 2". Here's a screen shot:

'Contains Words' has a data sensitive bug that causes it to behave seemingly flaky. Details are findable on the forum if the forum search ever gets fixed. I remember it by the keyword: "Big Mallard Ducks". Try searching for a photo with this keyword using 'Contains Words' and the various contained words and you'll see the problem - somebody already identified detailed cause - see somewhere on the Photoshop Lightroom forum. I never use keywords with spaces anymore, so this bug means nothing to me personally. This one falls in the category of "should be fixed next rev" in my opinion - it has persisted for a long time now.

LR 5.2 breaks Red Eye corrections that were applied in LR 4 in Process Version 2012. In LR 4, a Darken value of +100 darkens the adjustment, but in LR 5.2, it lightens it. As a result, photos with red-eye applied in LR 4 can look significantly different in LR 5.2. This bug was corrected in ACR 8.1, but the fix did not get into LR 5.2? http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjourn... It would be great if the LR team could quickly acknowledge that this is a bug that will be fixed in the future, so we can plan temporary workarounds accordingly. The image below shows how LR 4 interprets Darken = -100 (left eye) and +100 (right eye): And this one shows how LR 5 interprets the same values:

On the left is Camera Standard. On the right is Adobe Standard. See the hard edges and the weird colors in the gradient of the Camera Standard version? What’s up with that? I get that using any of the camera-specific profiles for my Nikon Df.

Lightroom 5 bug in reordering images manually - Mac OS Only. Symptoms: In grid view if you drag a photo to change position and try to swap with the image on immediate left the image you're dragging moves to the last place. Step to reproduce: 1-Open lightroom 2-select a folder 3-click on one image 4-drag over the immediate left image 5-release click 6-the image moves to the end of the grid versions affected: 5.0 -> 5.7 OS: Mac OS X only (10.9.x - possibly other versions too) screen recording: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2...

I encountered a bug in the Lightroom 5.2 spot removal tool. When the tool is active (after hitting Q), perform a left-click with the mouse and hold it. Then move a little so it starts painting a white surface. Still keep the mouse button pressed and hit the Delete key to remove the spot being created. Instead of deleting only this spot, ALL spots disappear. After this toggling spot removal mode does not work anymore. Restart of Lightroom is required. I use Windows 8 Pro.

When more than one photo is selected, and more than one copy name is passed, I mean, in Windows anyway, maybe Mac too. First off, I realize the SDK v5 has not been released, so if this bug report is premature, just ignore it. That said, I wanted to report ASAP in the hopes that it will be fixed before SDK 5 is released, if applicable. Problem is, plugin has no official way of assuring Lr is in grid mode. So createVirtualCopies needs to be fixed, or we need a way to force grid view, or both. Again, my apologies in advance: I acknowledge this is an undocumented function. Rob

I am using Lightroom 5.2 (tested with MAC OSX 10.8.5; 10.9 and WIN 7/64) All images are stored on an external drive an all smart previews are built. If the external drive is unmounted and I try to email photos I get the error: Can't send email because some selected photos are missing. Exporting the photos to my local hard drive is working so the photos are not really missing.

Found a bug in Lightroom 5.5 for Windows: "Can't move folders into their own subfolders"I have a folder named, "2010". I created another folder in the same level as "2010-2019". Attempting to move "2010" into the new "2010-2019" folder results in the below error. Rename to "a2010-2019", then moving 2010 into the new "a2010-2019" folder works. After that, I renamed "a2010-2019" back to "2010-2019" Error: "Can't move folders into their own subfolders"

LR 3 / W7 - conflict - Ctrl+Alt+A = Polish letter ą. When I try to type polish name in edit field with letter ą, the beginning of this name is deleted, because of in LR clr+alt+a is a shortcut to "select flagged photos" command.

At a Lightroom workshop at the weekend we were running through the book module and noticed that only those with Lightroom 4 could type in the spines on their dust cover. All font sizes etc were checked and correct.

The Problem: A client uses a MacBook Pro, an Epson 77c projector, and Lightroom to show slideshows using the slideshow module of Lightroom. In Lightroom 5.0, the reds and oranges of the slides when shown on the projector are over-saturated - but *only* when using the Slideshow module. This is a new problem since upgrading to Lightroom 5.0. Additional details: * I have created a calibrated display profile for the projector (using a Spyder 4 Elite) and made sure that the Mac is set to use the proper calibration for the projector in the Displays pane of System Preferences. * Even if I select a different (incorrect) calibration for the projector, such as the generic sRGB one provided by Mac OS X, the problem persists (although of course the colors in the photos look worse in general, too). * As I said, this is a new problem with Lightroom 5. With the exact same setup and photos in Lightroom 4, I do not see the problem. * The oversaturation only happens with the slideshow module displayed o

Hi, I was doing a Sync of "Noise Reduction" settings on a collection of Smart Previews and I always get the following error: "An internal error has occurred: <AgErrorID>10003</AgErrorID>" Can you give some help to this? Thanks

Due to some missing features in LR (like setting the GPS altitude automatically) I geotag my images using GeoSetter. GeoSetter creates *.xmp sidecar files. Unfortunately Lightroom doesn't import the metadata from the xmp files for some NEFs. The interesting thing is that using the very same xmp file (by renaming) for two NEFs it is often imported for one of the pictures but not for the other. I'm using Windows 7 64 bit, LR 5.2 and Nikon D800 NEFs.

The LR manual (http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/lightroom_...) says: The playback settings don’t apply to exported PDF slide shows. The slide duration and fade transition are fixed in PDF slide shows. However, this appreas to be incorrect. In fact in my version of LR5 RC5, the slide duration of exported PDF slideshows does follow the setting of the slider even when set to manual. I would appreciate to be able to set the transitions to "manual" (I believe this was the case in LR4 but I can't check this anymore). If this is not possible, extending the selectable range to 99 seconds makting the PDF slidshow to run at 99 seconds if "manual" is ticked would be an acceptable option.

I am having a problem with lightroom and I just can't seem to find the answer. I am creating a proof book in the book module. I want the images to appear in order starting at the top left and go left to right, top to bottom. Ideally I would like to use a page layout with 4 to 6 images. I have discovered that depending on which template you use photo cells are "numbered" in a different order. Regardless if your images are in order in your filmstrip, when you choose auto layout, lightroom places them in an inconsistent pattern. For example, if you use a 2 photo layout the photos go left to right. But in 4 photos they go from top left to bottom then back to the top again. With 6 photos it goes top left to top right to top middle and then down to the bottom row (that one really doesn't make sense) you will see from my screen shots my photos are in order in the film strip and their file names are ordered. Is there a way around this? I am sure you are very busy but I really need help on this

Sometimes, I select photos in the "Modified Photos to Re-Publish" pane, and mark them as up-to-date, and they disappear for a moment, then come right back. If I do it again, it will usually take, although some straggling photos may take a third try... Triggers are not the default, namely: default = false, -- suppress default triggers in favor of explicit triggers title = true, caption = true, keywords = true, gps = true, dateCreated = true, And none of those things should have resulted in a re-triggering for re-publish...

Lightroom's Slideshow module has a problem where the arrow keys always control the selection in the filmstrip. So if one is in a text field the arrow keys can't be used to navigate the field. Even worse, if one hits the "Export Video" button the arrow keys can't be used to navigate the name field. Thanks.

Lightroom V4 web module is extremely slow. I am using TTG CE2 components and compared with LR 3 which was not very swift, LR4 is painfully slow at building and exporting gallery and pages components.

I am running the latest version of light room. While in the import window, I cannot use teh left and right arrows to go between pictures, on the camera, while in loupe view. I have to keep going back to grid, select a pic and then go to loupe. I am convinced that the arrows are in fact moving between pics, because the "select for import" check box changes accordingly, but the pic does not load.

LR 3.4.1 or 3.5RC, Win7 64-Bit: When changing the color label (while a filter only showing images with an already existing color label is active), the change sometimes affects more than one image at a time. Steps to reproduce: Create new catalog, set AutoAdvance off   Import 6 images into the catalog   Go to AllPhotographs view   Select all 6 images using Ctrl-A   Click on label Red in the toolbar   Select Attribute Filter, only showing images labeled Red   Select first image only   Click on label Purple in the toolbar -> Image1 disappears, because Purple was assigned which does not match filter Red -> Selection is set to 2nd image automatically   Repeat for each of the 6 images -> sometimes (often), 2 images disappear because Red is removed from the first image worked on, and Purple is assigned to the next image automatically. This behaviour is sporadic, but often enouth it can be called reproducible.

Lightroom 5.7.1 Repro: - Navigate to Collection A - Navigate to Collection B - Select some photos in Collection B - Create new album with "Include selected photos" (view will switch to new album) - Navigate backwards (Window -> Go Back, or Cmd-Opt-Left on Mac) Expected: - View returns to Collection B Actual: - View returns to Collection A This applies to folders and catalog items in the left bar as well.

I don't know whether this bug is a fault of LR or PS, so I tagged this problem with both products. LR 3.4.1 and PS CS4, Windows XP 32 Bit SP3. Steps to reproduce: 1. Select a RAW in develop module of LR 2. Delete all local corrections and spot removals 3. Draw some adjustment brush strokes 4. *** save metadata (Ctrl-S) *** 5. Delete all brush strokes 6. Open as Smart Object in PS, or alternativley Open in PS, with PS doing the rendering in PS-ACR (the bug does *not* happen when LR is rendering the image!) Result: In PS, the deleted adjustment brush strokes reappear! The same happens a) for a virtual copy made after step 5, and b) even after modifying some other settings, e.g. contrast. And now for the funny thing: Adding a new different brush stroke will cause the image to be rendered *correclty* in a subsequent "open as smart object" or "edit in PS" (i.e. only the new, different brush stroke appears). *Deleting* all brush strokes will again make the old brush strokes reappear! Note: A

On OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), the map in Lightroom's Map module is very slow to load. It takes several minutes before the first part of the map appears, and some parts don't load at all, saying instead "Sorry, we have no imagery here", even though the part in question is on Google Maps. When zooming in or out, it's the same, it takes very long to update.

Hello! I imported a picture and then i horizontally mirrored the pic. When i choose the printmodule an activate my watermark and print it to a file the watermark is also mirrored in the exported file. But in LR the watermark is displayed in the right direction.
