P: (Customer specific) LR Classic showing inconsistent details about synching with LR Mobile

When I click on the cloud icon in the upper right hand of LR Classic it says it is synching 1,759 photos.  If i click on the gear icon and go to the sync dialog it says it is syncing 25 photos.  It's been saying this for many weeks. I can't figure out what photos it's syncing (or not) and what is going on...?

Rick, thank you again for all your help. Your instructions were very clear.

 

I ranomly selected a number of files from the list that i received in the private message. ALL of them are on my Android device and LrWeb but NONE of them are in my LR Classic catalog.

 

Here are a few that I selected:

 

E:\My Pictures\LIghtroom mobile pics\2020\July\20200725_135102.jpg
E:\My Pictures\LIghtroom mobile pics\2020\July\20200725_155549.jpg

E:\My Pictures\LIghtroom mobile pics\2020\July\20200723_193556.jpg

 

Those photos are part of a group of photos that are all in a shared album called "Cleveland Summer 2020."   Note that:

  • The shared album appears on my Android phone, LrWeb, and my LrC catalog.
  • That shared album on LrC only has five photos in it, but on my Android device and LrWeb there are 19 photos in the album.
  • All of the five photos in that album on LrC are also on my Android phone and LrWeb.

 

I hope this is clear and helpful.

Locate one of the files I sent you privately on your Android device. 
In Lightroom Web (https://lightroom.adobe.com) verify that the same file is synced to the cloud and in the same folder/album as on the device. 

 

If you cannot locate the file on your Android device, then we have a different problem.

If you can locate the file on your Android device but it is not in the cloud then do you have a Sync Errors/Issues Album showing that lists that file name?

If you can locate the file on your Android device and in the cloud but it is not in your Classic Catalog - I need to know the file name.

The files I listed are in process from Android to the Cloud - they are holding things up right now. Can you log in your Android device and allow those listed files to complete syncing?

i really appreciate the quick action, thank you!  Unfortunately, i don't understand what the private message is asking me to do!  the only thing i can say is that i have not done anything special with those files.

Neither I nor the engineer can download this file.  Can you review your sharing permissions?
