P: Desktop: paste settings on multiple photos freezes before completing

I'd usually edit 1 photos then copy the 'edit' and paste it to a batch of photos, before the latest update, everything works smoothly. But now after the update, pasting the edit to a batch of photos keep getting stuck, and I have to quite the program and restart it again to resume the pasting again and again. 

That does sound really frustrating. You might want to roll back to the previous version until the next release comes out. You can do that from the ... icon next to Lightroom in the CC app.

practicing my zen breathing techniques just to not outright abandon this 15 year wildly expensive codependent relationship.

This is absurd... I have to restart the program at LEAST 5 times before I can get a successful copy paste operation in. and even when I do, after copying I lose a number of functionalities including the white balance selector tool until I restart again. a typical photo session results in about 20 program restarts just to get to the point where I have white balance corrected for everything. Get this fixed Adobe. a bug like this should be top priority.

The bug is marked as acknowledged, so will hopefully be fixed in the next release. Releases are usually every 2 months. In the meantime, you may want to simply roll back to the previous Lightroom version, if this is causing a problem in your workflow. 

Looking forward to this getting fixed. LR is pretty useless without batch processing as I mostly shoot IR.

Also happens on my 2016 15" MacBook Pro running Lightroom 4.0

Still no reply or update on this bug? It's really unbelievable that a crucial feature can be broken for almost a month.

I copied the edit settings from 1 photo and cannot paste them onto more than 10 photos at a time. This is a pain for editing huge batches. Additionally, the paste task never finishes and disables the copy/paste function until lightroom restarts

I have to report a bug in Adobe Lightroom since the last update (version 4.0). I have reported some problems when I have to copy and paste the photo settings from one pic to another ones. Firstly the process starts, but after some seconds it stops and I have to close and re-open the software to continue what I started before.
