Bug Reports

Hello! Choose a non-cropped image. In the lens correction panel click “Manual”. Now put e.g. the vertical correction to -50 (just to illustrate the problem). Activate “Constrain crop” in order to exclude the grey corners. Now select the Crop Overlay tool. In the top, you see enough space where the crop could be shifted to. Try it. It won’t work (- unless you disactivate “Constrain crop” again). Yet, to my mind, an activated “Constrain crop” function should allow to move the crop freely within the new (= lens corrected) borders.

Transfering a catalog from Windows to OSX fails to convert HD Publish services to a proper target destination and provides no mechanism to correct the Export folder location. Moving a catalog from windows to OSX will permit the user to Find Missing folders for master images listed in the Folder panel. No similar mechanism exists for HD publish Services. A simple fix would be to permit the user to correct the column remoteCollectionId FROM "AgLibraryPublishedCollection" from a Drive letter designated folder path to an equivalent OSX folder path. This is not possible inside Lightroom.

I can not send images from LR4 to any external editor via Photo>Edit In. My system is Mac OS 10.7.3. Using the Edit In command fails to open the external editor and no error message results. This occurs whether the images have the 2012 Process Version applied or not. My external editors are primarily PSE10 and Nik Silver Efex Pro 2.0. This is an important part of my workflow. I have reinstalled PSE10 and updated to the newest version of Silver Efex Pro.

Hi! I’ve made my first book with the integrated book module in Lightroom in order to print it with Blurb. Started with LR 4.1, I've tried to solve upgrading to 4.2, but the problem remains. In the visualization all works fine, i’ve added graphics as background in some pages and the orientation follows the page numbering correctly (for example, the side decoration appear on the left of even pages and on the right of the odd ones). But when I export my book in PDF for a preview, all the backgrounds go crazy. I’ve noticed that this happen after each double page, as if the program count them as single. After the first double page, decorations switch from left to right and viceversa, after the second double page all return ok, after the third it’s switched again, and so on. In the screenshot you can see an example of the problem, taken after the first double page. I've resolved transforming graphic background into images.. but it's not a real solution...

I was checking the various options of publish services, including Flickr, and then I got an error strange message (but unfortunately I didn't write it down). Now, the Flickr service doesn't show the collections (there were previously two, one of which was the default photostream). The little triangle for expanding and collapsing is there and it rotates when I click it, but the collections are no longer there. My other publish services (SmugMug) are fine and I can see all the collections there. I tried restoring my Lightroom preferences directory from my last backup (with Lightroom closed, of course) and this had no effect. How can I fix this? If I knew where the Flickr publish service stored its information, perhaps I could fix this.

There seems to be an issue with blurry thumbnails/2nd monitor loupe display in develop module after upgrading to LR4.2 from LR4.1 Library Thumbnail Develop Thumbnail More Discussion in topic on Lightroom Discussions Area : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/107598...Note: This topic was created from a reply on the LR 4.2 displaying blurry grid images when in "import" topic.

Hi, Experiencing a problem (bug) that started showing up in 4.2 and I have been told remains in 4.3 concerning merging stacks. Here is the scenario: 1) In Library Module, Grid view, I have several stacks all of which are collapsed. For the sake of argument, let's say one has 3 images and another has 4 2) Now, I want to merge the 3 stack into the 4 stack with the top image of the 4 stack being the top image of the new 7 stack. 3) I Select both the 3 stack and the 4 stack, making the 4 stack the active stack (brightest canvas) 4) Press Ctrl+G to "merge selected images into stack" - in this case the selected images are the two collapsed stacks 5) This folds the 3 stack into the 4 stack as it should 6) in the old days of LR (prior to 4.2) LR would then show 1 thumbnail representing the new 7 stack with the number 7 on it as it's stack count. In the new days of LR 4.2, instead you see all 7 images in the grid, with all 7 of them having the number 7 on them as the stack count. In other words

I was using Lightroom 4.3 but discovered that the slideshow module would not load with two monitors in use. I rolled back to 4.2 and the problem is remedied. I would like to be able to use Lightroom 4.4 with two monitors (OSX 10.8.2) and extend the first monitor to the second. Thanks.

I have not been able to backup my catalog in Lightroom 4 since upgrading two days ago. I did not have this problem with 4 beta. It runs through checking integrity, backing up, and optimizing, and then I get a message that it was unsuccessful and to make sure I have enough space and check directory permissions. There is plenty of space, and I have tried to create it to two different drives without success. I am using the 32-bit version with Windows 7. The size of my catalog is 1.7 GB and includes my previous LR3 and LR4 beta catalogs. Thanks.

I've posted ad nauseum about the sftp bug that affects 99% of us that try to use sftp to upload web galleries from our 64-bit Windows version of LR 3.x. I tested 3.5RC and it too has the bug (crash at 50% progress, like clock work). I saw a comment from DT in another forum thread that said the proposed fix was basically too invasive to introduce into 3.x. Can someone from Adobe please confirm or deny that statement? If true, I'll stop testing all subsequent 3.x releases and wait for 4.x. Thanks!

LR4 closes suddenly when I want to use the adjustment brush. I am not running other programs at the same time and I am using a brand new Mac. I did not have this problem with LR3. What can I do to fix the problem

With LR 4.1 RC, the Flickr publisher seems to be broken. I added 2 new photos to a collection today after updating to the 4.1 RC, and tried to publish, but I get an error message: "Can't update this collection. An internal error has occurred: Invalid at the top level of the document." Publishing the same collection (without the 2 new images) worked fine yesterday in 4.0 before the RC update. Closing and re-starting LR did not solve the issue. Running Vista x64 SP2 with all updates and 64-bit LR installed.

I found a problem when I tried to re-run an import when I am renaming my image files and I also have "Make A Second Copy" enabled. I was making and testing a new import preset in a test catalog and I made a mistake in the destination. So I removed all the images from the catalog, deleted them from the disk and removed the now empty folders. After I corrected my import preset I reran the import with the source as the same input card. This time the import proceeded almost to the end but then displayed an error dialog saying LR could not rename any of the images it just added to the catalog. I click continue and go to the Previous Import in Grid view Everything is pretty messed up at this point. All the thumbnails in the Grid have the original name from the camera. (IMG_2449.CR2) and the missing file question mark badge. The image files in the Library folder are the correctly renamed files (sherwin_20121015.cr2) and the backup copy folder (Imported on November 9, 2012) has one of each. It

Lightroom 4.1RC 64bit won't import video. I tried different video formats. What's wrong?

In Lr 3.6 there still exists the problem in the Print module whereby the programme will only output at 72ppi resolution despite setting it to any other output resolution.

In Develop mode, I often adjust a slider by clicking its name with the mouse, and then using the + and - keys to adjust the value. (I must be the only masochist who does this, because apparently it's never tested by Adobe, and it's always buggy.) In Lightroom 4.1 and earlier, when I selected a slider with the mouse, that slider stayed selected when I edited a different photo. For instance, if I clicked on Contrast, the + and - keys would adjust the Contrast as I moved from photo to photo, until I clicked on a different slider. In Lightroom 4.2, regardless of which slider I click on, the Exposure slider is always selected when I switch to a different photo. So if I want to adjust the Contrast of each photo, now I have to click on Contrast for each photo, before using the + and - keys. When combined with the performance degradation of LR4, this makes Develop mode much slower to edit hundreds of photos.

When working in the Develop module on adjustment brushes, and ONLY with the mask overlay on, the secondary display sometimes does not show the effect. (Toggling the overlay can also cause the brush's effects to not be visible on the secondary display as well.) I've been working with a lot of images that need corrected exposure. I've adjusted most of my images down about -0.38. When I paint that as an initial brushstroke, the secondary display shows my changes, but adding additional brush strokes, (again, only with the overlay mask on in the develop module on the primary display,) causes the secondary display to brighten or darken on the areas affected by the brush. I've since noticed that any effect, even with a static exposure will cause the phenomenon of the brush either brightening on the secondary display, or darkening. You can add a stroke: exposure goes bright. Add another stroke (doesn't matter where, the bright/dark effect occurs brush-wide), and the image goes dark to reflect

Hi everybody, I've got problem with lightroom 4.2 with book module. I had sent a book to blurb and I have a problem on the back cover. Blurb support recommends me to contact Adobe support. Here is the problem description: I apply a graphic background (the first choice of graphical backgroup in wedding tab) on my standard landscape and the back cover has a text area on the center of the page. I centered my text on my page. When I received my book, I noticed that the graphic background is not centered with my text area. I had a some contacts with blurb support but they can not solve the problem because they informed me that the problem comes from lightroom. You can see on my screenshot that the text and the graphic background isn't centered. I suppose that the template of the front and back cover have a problem. The text area is centered with the bleed page and the graphical background is centered with entire page. I hope you will be able to help me and blurb to solve this problem ! Che

Lightroom SDK: Unable to add photo to catalog when parent folder name has a dot at the end. For example, this works: catalog:addPhoto( "C:\dir\subdir\file.nef" ) but this does not work: catalog:addPhoto( "C:\dir\subdir.\file.nef" ) -- hangs forever. Rob

When in full-screen mode with all panels hidden, the Flimstrip can be shown by hovering over a "up arrow" on the bottom of the screen. Now when Lighroom is minimized using Win+D shortcut, and restored later, the "up arrow" to show the Filmstrip is gone until I cycle through to all the screen modes, and back to full-screen mode. My system: Win 7 64bit Ultimate Dell Studio 1558 with i7, 1gb ATI Radion 5470 and 8gb RAM.

LR4 uses Camera Raw version 7.0. (it says so on the about plate). However there is no CR 7.0 available for PS. The PS: Help->Update says all up to date - there is no option to install CR7 that is required and warned about when "Edit in PS" is selected in LR4.

Since updating LR 4.2 RC (on Mac OS X 10.8.1) yesterday I can't save meta data in photos any more. Cmd+S brings up status bar saying that meta data are being actualized, but in grid view the photos are still shown with meta data to be actualized (arrow down).

Lightroom 4.2 is freezing when working in web-module and changing some values in Flash-Gallery. The exported files do not work, browsers freeze too. I'm working on Windows-PC, Vista 32 bit.

LR4.2 (or 4.0) not enabling import of PSE 11 catalog. No options appear on file menu for PSE import. Needs to be added to LR or a workaround provided W7 64 bit.

Since I upgraded from Lightroom 4.0 to 4.1 the flickr export plugin doesn't work any more. The same flickr set could be published with LR 4.0 The error message is: the flickr webservice could not be reached. check your internet connection. I can authenticate my flickr account via Lightroom 4.1 and I can view the contents of my flickr account. My system is Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit) SP1.
