P: Book Module – Unfinished book vanishes

I’m creating my first Blurb book inside of Lightroom 4. There are some 175 images in my collection/filmstrip. I was about 80% complete with the book, when I selected an image to go into the Development Module for adjustments. When done I returned to the Book Module. But the book was gone! The filmstrip at the bottom of the page is there indicating images are in the book, but the book itself is empty with only a cover and two blank pages. If I add an already “used” image, the filmstrip counter goes from 1 to 2.

Trying to fix this problem, I backed up and optimized my catalog. But upon restarting Lightroom no change... and no book!

Any suggestions as how to get my book back? Or do I have to start over!

unfortunately my last backup is two weeks old, i tried to save space on my SSD (not a good idea!).. changed it to backup whenever i exit lightroom now 🙂 However, it ́s still kind of unfortunate to experience this kind of frustrating bugs in a grown and established product.

Yes, I lost a book last week, having already installed 4.1. However I had made a duplicate the evening before and only lost the changes I had made since then- a real pain but not a disaster.
I have little faith in the stability of the book module and there are all sorts of other problems too with many of the features in the Blurb software missing. Great idea but quite dreadful execution by Adobe. I have made 13 Blurb books and am seriously considering returning to using Blurb's own programme even though I will lose the benefits of an integrated workflow.

Can you not restore a recent backup?

This problem should be addressed by the 4.1 update which was released today. Choose Help>Check for Updates... to install.

Hi Janlai,

What Lightroom version are you running?

when changing panel from book to library and going back to book all the pictures are randomly substituted by only the last one arranged in the book layout

I have had all these "loosing" of the book info as well. But, can always restoe it from a back-up. My problem this past week is that the book I have worked on will not publish to BLURB. Nor will it export to PDF. It just starts and does nothing. I have to cancel the job to end it. Does anyone have any ideas what I have done wront. I have LR4. Windows 7. 64 bit. Should I upgrade to 4.1RC? And, how do I do that?

I finally finished my book using Lightroom 4.1RC. It was my third try so I was very familiar with the material. Never-the-less I moved very slowly and purposefully afraid that the next pen stroke might end in another total loss. It would appear that the"Create book" button has been removed from beneath the "Book" module. So after successfully transferring the job to Blurb I sought out the other button (i.e., Command S) and hit it. The book disappeared but did not show up in the list! I had no more time to fool with it so have not investigated further.
